  I am writing this on behalf of my aunt, who, along with my uncle, had the privilege of being represented by Jeffrey R. Smith of Branson Smith Waldsmith LLP. We are all forever grateful for him, for the new start he has given her, and for the simple, beautiful gift of seeing her smile again. From their initial consultation through to the conclusion of the case, Jeffrey’s professionalism, expertise, and commitment were unmatched. What truly set him apart was how he fought for my aunt and uncle. He brought together an incredible team of professionals who backed them up and powerfully demonstrated the profound emotional toll this injury took on her life. As a family, there were so many heartbreaking moments where we felt completely helpless, watching her in pain and seeing her struggle just to be herself and raise her young children. Jeffrey recognized that pain. He demonstrated incredible attention to detail, a thorough understanding of the legal complexities, and a level of genuine care that gave them confidence when they needed it most. He communicated clearly, provided thoughtful guidance, and ensured they were fully informed at every stage. We are incredibly pleased with the outcome of the case, but even more grateful for the diligence, empathy, and dedication Jeffrey brought to our family. We would highly recommend Jeffrey R. Smith and Branson Smith Waldsmith LLP to anyone seeking knowledgeable, dependable, and truly dedicated legal representation.

  R.J. Waldsmith is an exemplar of a great trial lawyer: smart, kind and professional. He was relentless in prosecuting my personal injury case. I was 19 when a failed LASIK eye surgery ended up damaging the optic nerve of my eyes. Mr. Waldsmith learned the facts of my case, became knowledgeable in the cause of my injury, and fought hard to recover compensation on my behalf. I am truly grateful for the work Mr. Waldsmith and his firm did on my case. The compensation I received allowed me to get back on track, completing my studies at UC Berkeley. We remain friends years after my case was over. Mr. Waldsmith inspired me to pursue a career in law. His partners Bill Smith and Jeff Smith are also great. I highly recommend this firm.

  R.J. is an exceptional Attorney that any client would be blessed to retain. His decades of dedicated experience speak for themselves, but it's his unyielding stance against opposing council yet genuine empathetic temperament toward his clients that stands out. He devotes himself fully, such that you feel like you are his one and only case. R.J. takes the time to explain each step in detail, provides insightful perspective and allows for conversation, so that you feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire daunting process. I can't give nearly enough praise nor stars that adequately speak to R.J.'s remarkable abilities and character.

  I retained RJ Waldsmith of Abramson, Smith & Waldsmith to represent me in a personal injury matter and was consistently impressed by his professionalism and command of the issues involved. From the outset, he approached the case with careful attention and a clear strategic framework. His communication was direct and measured, and he ensured I was informed at each critical stage of the process. RJ’s thorough preparation, analytical rigor, and effective advocacy were instrumental in achieving a favorable resolution. I valued his judgment and steady guidance throughout and would confidently recommend him to anyone seeking skilled and dependable representation in a personal injury case.

  Ms. Shapirshteyn went above and beyond in handling my case. The way she navigated it end-to-end at every juncture of the process made me feel so confident and at ease during what was otherwise a highly stressful situation for me and 60 other people. She was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable, and she made sure nothing was overlooked. As a result of her fast action on this case, we prevented a larger issue and were protected. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is both highly capable and deeply attuned to their clients, I can’t recommend Ms. Shapirshteyn enough.
