Lawyer Endorsements

"Willing to take on tough cases other lawyers turn down."

"I have worked closely with Jeff on numerous catastrophic injury cases. As an attorney with 33 years of experience I have never met an attorney who devotes 100% of his energy and expertise to his clients’ benefit as does Jeff. All of his waking hours are devoted to the accomplishment of just one goal–How can I maximize my client’s recovery so that they can resume and enjoy their lives in the future. Jeff’s determination has been an inspiration to me and has made me a better lawyer. His willingness to take on tough cases that other lawyers turn down, and his single minded focus on his clients should be an inspiration to all lawyers."

Andrew Solomon, Philadelphia

"Relishes ensuring a just ending for his clients."

"Jeffrey’s reputation for high intellect, deep respect for the law, tenacity, thoughtfulness, and stick-to-it-iveness is very well deserved. I have had the wonderful benefit of Jeffrey’s insight on a number of professional issues and his perspective has consistently been spot-on. Jeffrey never loses sight of the important role he plays in assisting his clients to correct, in most instances, a substantial and life-altering wrong. As writer, producer, director, and actor in masterfully edited legal vignettes that comprise his client’s cases, Jeffrey relishes in ensuring a just ending for his clients. Often it said that one’s attorney should “walk through brick walls” to get the job done. Having known Jeffrey, not only do I know he would “walk through brick walls” for his clients, but he’d make sure that not a nary brick would be left for re-use."

George Awad, Philadelphia

"Responding to client emergencies in the middle of the night."

"Jeff Reiff is one of the best attorneys I have worked with. Many attorneys are good at one or two aspects of the law practice, but Jeff is one of the few that understands all aspects of personal injury work. His attention to his clients is unsurpassed, as is his work ethic in ensuring his clients are provided the best possible representation. I have seen him responding to client emergencies in the middle of the night, traveling far distances to ensure that a client’s needs are immediately met, and fighting very hard for all of his clients. Jeff intimately knows all of his clients’ cases and needs; they are not just a number to him. If my family or I ever needed a personal injury attorney he’d be it.”

James Beasley, Philadelphia

John Morelli, Voorhees, NJ

Client Testimonials

 

"When another lawyer said the case was hopeless."

"We don’t have the words to show the full extent of our gratitude for Jeffrey Reiff. Whether it was fate or luck that let our paths cross, Mr. Reiff saved us. With the what we were originally told by another attorney, we literally thought that our lives were over. Thankfully Mr. Reiff took over our case, as without him we don’t know where we would be right now… I don’t even want to think about it. Mr. Reiff and his office were able to help us throughout the whole ordeal—they took care of everything. Again, I lack the words to say just how grateful we are for everything that he and the staff and Reiff and Bily did for us.

"I owe you my life." - IM

"In the loss of a child."

"Thank you for being my lawyer and now friend. The loss of my child and the guiding star of my life made me lose faith in all. You were always there for me and I appreciate your friendship. You have made the unbearable bearable and showed me how hope, love and faith can conquer the darkest days." - AH

"Accident while on a visit to Philadelphia."

"The team at Reiff and Bily are outstanding! It was an honor to have such a devoted professional team represent my mother for the personal injuries she sustained while in Philadelphia. Everyone we dealt with at Reiff and Bily proved to be honest, compassionate, and dedicated to seeing justice served.

After returning home to Texas, Colleen continuously called to keep me updated on the status of our case as things progressed. I knew that the Reiff and Bily team was working extremely hard gathering all the facts and networking with their team of experts to ensure my mother was represented with utmost integrity. I appreciate Colleen for her paralegal expertise, her encouragement, and her friendship.

What has been a life-altering experience for my mother and I, has also been an epiphany–discovering that REAL lawyers actually do exist. Jeffrey Reiff and Ray Bily are “Super Lawyers”, in every sense of the word. Reiff and Bily competently exceeded my expectations and my mother’s case settled much to our satisfaction. I will be forever grateful. It has truly been an honor to know Jeffrey and Ray.

I sincerely believe that anyone in need of legal representation should contact Jeffrey Reiff. I know the dedication and hard work Reiff and Bily devoted to my mother’s case is equally given to every individual client. Thanks for going the distance!"

"With gratitude and love to all." - LB and HV

"Never sued anyone before."

"I have had two cases with this law firm. One was for my son who was struck by a car and broke his leg which affected his growth plate and the other case was for myself when I was stopped at a red light and got hit head on by another vehicle. Both incidents were very dramatic as I had never had an accident before or ever needed a lawyer in the past for anything.

My friend recommended Reiff & Bily. The attorneys and staff made me feel very comfortable. I was so relieved when I started to meet and work with them all. They are very personable and accommodating, and most of all very knowledgeable and experienced in the law. Both cases were handled professionally and very timely. They made sure all the medicals bills were paid so I didn’t have to worry about medical bills after the fact.

I must say Jeff Reiff is a superior attorney and Denise Cashman his paralegal is such as asset to this firm. She also is very knowledgeable and proficient in her work. She is Jeff’s right hand. Both have always gotten back to me either the same day or the very next day. Their work is like second nature to them. I knew I was in good hands. They streamlined everything for me. I was actually dreading the process but after working with this law firm, they put all my fears and worries to rest.It’s good to have an attorney who is honest and does the right thing. He is all about justice. Never once did I feel I didn’t agree with them. Everything they said made a lot of sense. I feel they have integrity and stand by their word."

"Thank you so much for representing me." - BE

"Treated my mother like he was her own son."

"I endorse and thank Jeffrey Reiff and his staff for taking care of my elderly mother and family during a difficult time.
My mother sustained life threatening injuries and permanent disabilities as a result of a serious accident with a large truck. She was helicoptered to a hospital in critical condition and we had limited knowledge of the legal system and her rights. She required extensive medical care and will require much care and support for the balance of her life.

Mr Reiff and his staff were available to us 24/7 and he worried about my mother like he was her son. We consider him a new member of our family and he achieved a result well beyond our expectations and I know that mom and the rest of my family will not have to worry about her financial and medical needs for the remainder of her life. Even when the case was finished he remains committed to our family’s well being.

Thank goodness that there are lawyers like this who care. I also want to thank his assistants and paralegals Denise and Garry for their concerns, support, honesty, patience, and follow up. I know that sometimes I was a difficult and demanding client, but you were always polite and responsive and nothing was too much to ask. I recommend this firm to anyone who wants an honest, committed, responsive and passionate lawyer." - RE

"I was in a car hit by another car. This accident has involved a law suit that has taken 2 years to resolve. Mr Reiff has been directly available every moment of this case and has provided peace of mind and confidence in very difficult situations. Mr. Reiff’s knowledge of the law, his determination to stand up for justice, and his compassion, have brought this case to the best possible conclusion. With full confidence, and with great respect and appreciation for his commitment to his clients, I highly recommend Mr. Reiff." - BV

"Jeffrey Reiff represented me following a car accident for which I was not at fault. He helped me through a difficult and challenging time and protected the interests of my husband and myself in a supportive and helpful manner. He explained things to me that I might not have understood on my own and encouraged me when I felt overwhelmed. I required surgery following my accident and Jeffrey was there for us making sure that all of our needs were met. Our case was settled in a timely and very satisfactory manner. We recommend him with total confidence." - MD

"I want to thank all of you so very much and let you know how very much I appreciate everything that Jeffrey Reiff and his staff have done to diligently work on my legal case. You and your staff are amazing and have gone way beyond expectations. I repeatedly tell myself that everything good in life has to do with blessing and I feel blessed to have the good people of Reiff and Bily as my good attorneys representing myself and family.

I promised myself that 10% of what recovery comes from this case will be used as a dedication to a good charity in the name of your and your law firm. Money comes and money goes and thank you God that I am still alive and have hired great attorneys to represent me." - JC

"Always available to talk with us."

"My daughter and I were in a serious car accident last year, hit by a drunken driver. After consulting with a few attorneys, I retained the services of Reiff and Bily. I was very glad with my decision. I was able to speak with Mr. Reiff whenever I need to. His excellent secretary Denise Cashman and paralegal Colleen Barnes were always available to address any and all concerns in an expedited manner. I would refer this law firm to anyone who is looking for professional services when you the client are a priority." - TM

"You can see that he really, really cares."

"I am a single parent and have been previously misrepresented by other attorneys for me and my son. I almost lost my son in a car accident at no fault of his own. I cried, prayed and prayed for help. I am so grateful to Jeffrey and his staff, my prayers were answered.

I was very concerned at first, if I could trust another attorney. But WOW ! Tremendous, a true professional all the way. He genuinely has passion and commitment in what he does. He is very knowledgeable, efficient, and always in my corner. I felt 100% comfortable and in “good hands” the first day I met him. He was with me and for me and my son all the way. Very proficient in his field, and you can see that he loves to help his clients, He really, really cares.
I was very impressed with him and his staff the first day I met them all. Mr. Reiff was right on my case, taking action the first day I met him and I am very hard to impress. I will tell and recommend him to anyone. Another thing, he kept me informed of what was going on. I am a go-getter and I like his style. God bless him and his staff for really looking out for us." - AK

The lawyers at Reiff and Bily work hard for their clients and make everything understandable and explained every last detail until you understand it. I always felt comfortable with Mr. Reiff and his staff and I want to tell all of my friends, co-workers and everyone who needs a lawyer about this firm. Jeffrey Reiff has been my attorney since I was a little girl and he also represented my entire family. Always there for us and always a job well done." - DH

Spotlights

“The Best Lawyer I Ever Had” 

“He was an excellent attorney that went above and beyond all means to make sure that I got the maximum amount for my auto accident. This lawyer really knows the law and brings the client justice. I honestly believe that word of mouth is the best way to have this attorney to continue to go even farther in life. He is truly a wonderful and pleasant man besides being just an attorney.” –Christina

“The Consummate Professional”
“Jeff is the consummate professional and a top notch litigator. He's the guy you definitely want on YOUR side.” –Mitch

“One of the Top Personal Injury Attorneys in the Country!”
“Thoughtful, professional, and personable, Jeff Reiff is an outstanding personal injury lawyer that is loved by clients and admired/feared by his peers nationally. He is a dedicated, compassionate, and exceptionally gifted lawyer that understands the long term implications serious injuries have on individuals and their families. He has great case instincts—knowing when to settle and when a trial is the best option. Jeff and his team of professionals know how to handle complex cases with ease while remaining very informative and focused on the end game–something you just can't find in other lawyers today. It is without reservation that Jeff gets my highest recommendation.” –Mark H.

“Thank-you…”
“I wanted to thank you and your entire staff for basically saving and changing my life and giving me a new start on everything. I know that you are very passionate and loyal to your job and others which is a great quality to have, and I surely look up to you. I know that you are golden to lots of people, and your friends and clients are lucky to know you. Withstanding the continued tributes you do, I know that you are a kind and caring soul and do such good for others. I can tell your heart is definitely in the right place. I appreciate all of your trying efforts for us. I feel as if I met a real friend. Thank you for being a believer.” –Past Client

reiffYou will easily find a plethora of raving reviews for Jeff. In addition to postings just about everywhere on the Internet, his website is loaded with testimonial after testimonial. If ever there was a time that the “sometimes obscure” worldwide web was working completely in your favor, this would be it.

“How great can this guy be?” you ask, no doubt rolling your eyes…. All we can say, along with many others is, “Prepare to be surprised.” You can’t speak to Jeff for more than two minutes before catching his enthusiasm and passion for the law, people, and life. He is personable, engaging and remarkably genuine. More importantly, behind all the charm, good nature and good will, there is an extremely curious and creative mind - all residing within a compassionate ally yet a disciplined and formidable opponent when it involves obtaining justice for a client.  However, one of Jeff's most noticeable traits would undoubtedly be his consistency. He has been practicing law for over 34 years, yet he remains constant - constant in his relationships with his clients - past and present, in his associations, in his professional conduct, achievements and successes. That level of consistency is impossible to "fake" or manufacture, it has to be a way of life and a philosophy. People trust and depend on him - they remember him ...... he makes an impression. Furthermore, his skill as a litigator, and his consistency of results in and out of the courtroom, lead to numerous requests for his opinion, participation and collaboration across many legal venues. Judges and lawyers often request that Jeff serve as arbitrator/mediator of their Pennsylvania alternative dispute cases. Additionally, he is sought after as an expert witness and has testified in accounting and legal malpractice cases. He has authored many articles for the profession, and for the public, in the field of catastrophic injuries and wrongful death. Furthermore, Jeff has been recognized as possessing the highest possible rating in both legal ability and ethical standards by legal peers, judges, and clients in a confidential voting process. For a more detailed view of all his credentials, please refer to his Profile.

You should know that Jeff is considered a masterful, tough, and skillful negotiator who is respected for his honesty and sense of fair play. To this day, a handshake still means something to Jeff and he has never forgotten his humble beginnings. He grew up in a Philadelphia inner-city row home, and it was there that he developed a heightened sense of honesty, hard work, and compassion for the plights of people. Seeing the world and all its hardships at such an early age made an impact upon him that has not diminished with time. He carries that awareness into every case he takes on, every courtroom he steps into, and every acquaintance he makes. Jeff, however, doesn’t confine his talents, good will, and energy to the pursuit of law, but has been widely recognized for his international philanthropic and charitable efforts.

In summary, those Jeff has served consider him to be more than “just their lawyer,” but also their friend. He returns the sentiment. In his words, “We always try to devote our best efforts to each client on a case by case basis. We refuse to be bullied or "low-balled" by insurance companies, corporations, and their attorneys who attempt to minimize and delay paying claimants their due. Since 1979, I have learned that each client sustains a loss of their hopes and dreams after an accident which may have life altering consequences, and it is important to aggressively fight for justice. I remain passionate about my clients and work and am thankful for the opportunity to assist and work with them. An added benefit is that many become lifelong friends in the process.”
