Serving Our Diverse Community FAQ

SERVING OUR DIVERSE COMMUNITY FAQ

  • How Can Someone from the Korean Community Find the Best Lawyer to Handle a Personal Injury Case in Maryland or Virginia?

    If you had asked me five years ago how people find the best lawyer in Maryland or Virginia to handle a personal injury case for a Korean speaking client, I may have said look at the yellow pages or the Korean Times. Our firm in fact still advertises for injury cases in both. However, the truth is now the best lawyers for serious personal injury cases for Korean speaking clients can now be found in two other ways.

    First, find an attorney serving the Maryland or Virginia Korean community by word of mouth. In the Korean community, what you will find is that some injury lawyers may provide good service, but don't really get great results. Others, get good results, but their service is really poor. At Portner & Shure, we deliver good service to Korean speaking automobile accident clients in Maryland and Virginia and get great results.

    Second, look at the Korean injury firm’s website when choosing a Korean speaking lawyer in Maryland or Virginia. Specifically, look at the testimonials from clients. Portner & Shure now post testimonials on our website in both English and Korean. Testimonials from Korean speaking and English speaking clients show you exactly what Portner & Shure clients thought of the service and results.

  • How to Find the Best Lawyer to Handle a Personal Injury Case for a Chinese Speaking Client in Maryland or Virginia?

    If you had asked me ten years ago how people find the best lawyer in Maryland or Virginia to handle a personal injury case for a Chinese speaking client, I may have said look at the yellow pages or in the World Journal. Our firm in fact still advertises for injury cases in both. However, the truth is now the best lawyers for serious personal injury cases for Chinese speaking clients can now be found in two other ways.

    First, find an attorney serving the Maryland or Virginia Chinese community by word of mouth. In the Chinese community, what you will find is that some injury lawyers may provide good service, but don't really get great results. Others, get good results, but their service is really poor. At Portner & Shure, we deliver good service to Chinese speaking automobile accident clients in Maryland and Virginia and get great results.

    Second, look at the Chinese injury firm’s website when choosing a Chinese speaking lawyer in Maryland or Virginia. Specifically, look at the testimonials from clients. Portner & Shure now post testimonials on our website in both English and Chinese. Testimonials from Chinese speaking and English speaking clients show you exactly what Portner & Shure clients thought of the service and results.

    Next, look at the website to see verdicts and settlements. Portner & Shure posts verdicts in cases from Chinese speaking clients. Don't use a firm that is afraid to post its results. Many of these firms don't litigate cases. An injury firm in Maryland or Virginia cannot be aggressive for Chinese speaking clients with an insurance company if they don't step in the Courtroom. Furthermore, the insurance company's use the internet too. If a Chinese speaking client can figure out that an injury lawyer rarely or never goes to court, the insurance company certainly will. The insurance carriers keep track of the tendencies of Maryland and Virginia personal injury attorneys.

    Lastly, look at the organizations, the law firm servicing the Chinese community belongs to. For example, Mr. Portner, as a result of his advocacy skills, is a selected member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Fewer than 1% of us lawyers are selected as members. The internet is now a fun shopping tool, and if used correctly, a helpful tool when searching for a Maryland or Virginia personal injury lawyer servicing the Chinese community.
