When you’re dealing with a serious injury or the loss of a loved one, waiting for updates can feel unbearable. Many people who contact us have already experienced the frustration of being left in the dark by other professionals during a vulnerable time.
At Levin & Perconti, we believe you should never have to chase down your own attorney for answers. Communication is central to how we work, and our team is committed to keeping you informed at every stage of your case. Because legal cases move through active periods and quieter phases behind the scenes, we focus on providing meaningful updates when there is real progress, and we are always here to answer questions in between.
Someone Familiar With Your Case Is Always Available to Respond
Every case at Levin & Perconti is handled by a team, not a single attorney working alone. This means you will always have a team member who can respond to your questions and ensure your concerns are addressed, even if your lead attorney is in court, taking depositions, or meeting with experts.
Your lead attorney oversees strategy and major decisions. Supporting them are associates, paralegals, nurses, and staff who stay closely involved in your case. If your attorney is in court, in depositions, or meeting with experts, someone else on your team can help.
Clients often tell us this makes a real difference. Cameron Queiro, a recent client, shared:
“Couldn’t be more grateful to Levin and Perconti enough for all the hard work and keeping me informed on my case every step of the way. Super professional and extremely responsive. I worked with Kara, Margaret, Natalie and many others and they all held the same level of class and efficiency within our communications.”
We Return Calls and Respond to Questions
When you call, you should get a response. Our team is known for being accessible and responsive, even when cases stretch over months or years. While attorneys are sometimes in court, depositions, or meetings where they cannot answer immediately, our team works to return calls and messages as quickly as possible and ensure you are never left without support.
As Sharon Collins described her experience:
“Daniel Goldfaden and his team were very considerate and sympathetic to me and my family in the loss of our dear mother. I was contacted whenever something was going on and advised accordingly in what I needed to do.”
Another client, Carla Rodriguez, shared her experience after losing her father:
“Ms. Kelly is passionate about her line of work. She answers, she listens, she calls you back at her earliest convenience, she FIGHTS on your behalf for your loved one. I was referred to Levin & Perconti following my father’s death and Ms. Kelly always addressed me with sensitivity because she knew how heavy it all was for me. She was kind and kept me up to date!”
We understand that your questions aren’t just about legal strategy. They’re about your life, your family, and your future. We take that seriously.
Regular Updates as Your Case Progresses
Legal cases don’t move in a straight line. There are periods of active investigation, waiting for records, expert consultations, negotiations, and sometimes trial preparation. We make sure you know what’s happening at each stage. There may be stretches where work is happening behind the scenes, such as gathering records or waiting on outside parties, where there are fewer visible developments. During those times, no news often means the process is moving as it should, and we remain available if you want a check-in.
From the start, we explain the process and what to expect. As things develop, we provide updates so you’re never left guessing. If there’s a delay or something unexpected, we’ll tell you directly.
Nina Claudio, a client who worked with Gabriel Aprati, described her experience:
“I honestly can’t thank Levin and Perconti enough for all the hard work and keeping me informed on my case every step of the way. From my first and last call the experience was above and beyond excellent, professional and more than helpful. Gabriel did outstanding providing ongoing status with clear communication, provide great support and a successful resolution.”
Communication Through Long and Complex Cases
Some cases take years to resolve. Medical malpractice, birth injury, and nursing home abuse cases often involve extensive investigation, expert consultations, and careful preparation. We stay engaged the entire time.
Elyse Albrecht worked with our team on a family member’s case and appreciated the constant updates:
“Kelly provided constant updates via email/phone and thoroughly answered all of our questions anytime they arose. We are so grateful for her time, devotion and commitment in resolving this matter.”
When we take your case, we commit to the long haul. You won’t go through a lengthy process without a dedicated team supporting you and keeping you informed as your case moves forward.
