About the Law Offices of Samuel Fishman

For more than two decades, the Law Offices of Samuel Fishman has done one kind of work: representing seriously injured people. No corporate clients, no insurance-company defense — personal injury and workers’ compensation, exclusively, for individuals and families in Philadelphia, the surrounding counties, and New Jersey.

How We Practice

Focus. Concentrating on injury law means the insurance tactics, medical issues, and courtroom procedures in your case are our daily work — see our practice areas.
Personal attention. Your case is handled by the attorneys whose names are on this page — Samuel Fishman, Carl J. D’Adamo, and Daniel Fishman — supported by a multi-lingual staff so language is never a barrier to understanding your own case.
Straight answers. Free consultations that end with an honest assessment — including “you don’t need a lawyer for this” when that’s the truth.
Contingency fees. No attorney’s fee unless we recover for you; how case costs are advanced and repaid is spelled out in the written fee agreement before you sign.

Where We Work

Our office is at 11450 Bustleton Avenue in Northeast Philadelphia, and our attorneys practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey state and federal courts — you can verify any Pennsylvania attorney’s standing through the Disciplinary Board of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. We try cases when trying them is what fair compensation requires; the Pennsylvania courts are where insurance companies learn we mean it. Our results reflect that approach — with the honest caveat that every case turns on its own facts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who will actually handle my case?

One of our attorneys — not a case mill’s rotating staff. You’ll know who is responsible for your file, and you’ll be able to reach them.

Do you only handle personal injury?

Personal injury and workers’ compensation are the firm’s practice. If your matter falls outside that, we’ll say so at the consultation and point you toward the right kind of lawyer — the Pennsylvania Bar Association also runs a referral service.
