The words that best describe the Kanner & Pintaluga Accident Attorneys are INSOLENT and UNPROFESSIONAL. They will RIP YOU OFF they are LIARS do not use their representation I’m WARNING you THEY WILL LEAVE YOU WITH NOTHING and will leave you will bills to pay. I have been very disgusted with their customer service and representation that at one point I wanted to change attorneys I regret the decision to continue using their services the reason why I chose to stay with them is because they promised me results and they FAILED to do that. It has been over a year and my case is still on going, the way I came across Kanner & Pintaluga was through 411-Pain law referral service with the very catchy ads “big mistake”. Problem 1) the amount of time it took them to get my medical bills together even after I faxed them to them and the extra outrageous fees they are charging me to retrieved other medical bills 2) when I called to check on the status of my case my case representative was very disrespectful and very reluctant to give me any information, they would only tell me that they are still negotiation and call back in three or four weeks this went on for about 11 months. I would have to basically beg them for information when I asked them how much my bills were in total I was only told that it was an amount that was outrageous when in fact I knew it was not as much as they said it was the amount actually included additional FEES THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO HIDE very unprofessional. I would ask my attorneys for a list of my medical bills and total they were not willing the only time I received answers was after giving them a hard time. Now that I received a final amount for my settlement that amount does not even cover all my bills nor does it leave me with any pain and suffering compensation they purposely left out a bill that they didn’t want to pay because they couldn’t negotiate enough money to pay my bills the only thing they are concerned with are their lawyer fees and additional lawyer cost. 3) The only time I was able to speak with my attorney was after threating to drop them from my case or after giving them a hard time after not wanting to give me any information on my case I would have to DEMAND information over and over again. 4) Their Georgia office is a front it’s basically office space that they are renting out to say that they are located in Georgia. I requested to set an appointment in the Georgia office to speak with someone face to face (this was before I found out that the office was really nonexistent) I was told that they will call me back with an appointment time. They never gave me an appointment time I would call and call for an appointment and after calling back after the forth or fifth time they would hang up in my face, purposely not answer my calls, or send me to the voice mail very unprofessional. I decided to go up to the Georgia office one day to discover that it was just a front. 5) THEY CASHED MY SETTLEMENT CHECK WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDE, Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT USE KANNER & PINTALUGA FOR ANY SERVICE.
Kevin Sobel who works for Kanner and Pintaluga is the worst lawyer that you can find. He is rude, irrespectul and he doesn't take care of your case, he is unprofessional, he lie to you, he won't give information to you, he won't return the calls or emails. Once that they have the compensation money, they don't want to give it to you. They use anything to trick you. They don't want to send you the money and don't even pick up calls or emails.
Kevin Sobel should be disbar because he doesn't work in an ethical manner. He gives you information that it is not true and will make you not just lose your money but your patience.
Trust me I am taking the time to write this ripoff review to alert you and I don't want any other person to fall in the same situation that it happened to me. Everything that they advertise it is the opposite.
Kevin Sobel is irresponsible in the way he take care of cases and I have been fighting to get my money and I haven't have any luck by now. He will retain your money for ever.
Do not trust Kevin Sobel
Kevin Sobel is a rude person.
Kevin Sobel is not trustworthy
Kevin Sobel will lie to you
Kevin Sobel shouldn't be practicing law.
Kanner and Pintaluga will misrepresent you. Do not waste your money and your time with Kanner and Pintaluga and Kevin Sobel.
Kevin Sobel is one of the Senior partners at Kanner & P. This company is one of the worst ever. I didn't do my homework choosing an attorney. They don't update you concerning your case. They lie and pretend they ask for a large amount of money then give you pennies. Typically liars they all are working together the insurance companies and lawyers. Giselle Martinez the legal assistant was also unprofessional. When you call her she will have a full conversation and she will say exactly what she will do. You call her back in a few days and she acts like she never had that conversation. I don't advise no one to ever have this company represent them in anything. They only have a name. They reputation of being professional in nothing but hot air. If you don't have money they treat you like crap.
Never returned phone calls, rude staff, after three years still never spoke to actual attorney, kept on hold for too long and one time mixed me up with another client arguing they had sent me a settlement check until after much going back and forth to convince them they realized "oops" wrong person. No apology. Terrible experience. Please avoid at all cost.
Kanner & pintaluga are rip off lawyers, i have a case with them now going on a year and just got a called saying that they going to send my case to a court hearing lawyer that can take up to two years for him to start my case.Kevin Sobel who is he? I was told that would be my lawyer but have never spoke to the man since day one,i am about to fire them because everytime i call they hang the phone up in my face and when i call back it goes to the voice mail...I am going to the state Bar on them they should not be allowed to work and play around with people money. How can 411 pain just give you these people as a lawyer. I asked to speak with a person face to face but i got no reply.
I regret doing business with this law firm! I was in an accident and sawc an advertisment on the television for Kanner & Pintaluga; so I decided to call them to represent me. I regret doing so! Kevin SOble, the lawyer representing my case, never returns phone calls, told me that he will not release my funds from the accident until he is good and ready! Samantha Pentegrast, who is the office manager or assistant of some kind, has been extrememly rude and hung up on me severl times. The doctors that Kevin Sobel told me to go to have over charged me and one I never even saw.
I am possibly facing bankruptcy due to this law firm, Kanner & Pintaluga. They do not care about their clients needs and should not be allowed to practice in any state! I sent Kanner & Pintaluga a letter notifying them of Mr. Kevin Soble and Samantha Pentegrast's behaviors, but I received no reply. I made sure send every letter to this law firm certified with return and receipt. I further explained to Kevin Soble that I would be filing a complaint with the State Bar of Georgia and he, without fear or regard said they will not do anything to him but ask him a few questions. I have posted this complaint as a deterent for other future victums to this unethical law firm that should not be allowed to practice law of any kind, nor cause future problems to any other person!
I truly hope that the Georgia State Bar does makemake Mr. Kevin Soble accountable for his actions! I also hope many people read this report so that they will not have to suffer in the manner that which I have suffered, both emotionally and financially!
Very unprofessional during closing process. I was told by a paralegal the settlement check was in their possession and they were waiting for my signed statement. I called to verify they received the signed statement 10/22/213, after I mailed it out 10/10/2013. Mary Anna in accounting said she would call me back later that very afternoon. After 10 days and several phone calls I still have not heard a response from Mary Anna. When I ask to speak to her superior or a human resources representative I am forwarded to her voice mail. All of this for less than 20% of the settlement amount on an accident that occurred July 2011. I will have back pains for the rest of my life. Forget going to the doctor, I will not even be able to buy a decent mattress with my portion if I ever receive it.
I am warning you that this firm practices in several states. DO NOT USE THEM. This is not a law firm it is a boiler room. There only objective is to LOSE YOUR CASE and have you pay. And when you don’t pay they will threaten you and harass you. With all of the choices that are out there I mistakenly did not do my research and allowed someone to convince me to use this firm. Hindsight I believe she got a kickback for the referral.
The will sit on your case. You will receive a series of phone call from $10 per hour employees from a call center. You will NEVER hear from Kevin Sobel or his cohorts. After a lengthy of period of time they will try to settle your case for less than its worth. When you refuse you will be threatened.
Kevin Sobel should not be interacting with the public or practicing law in any state in the United States. Hes an under the table, lawless used car salesman that make the profession of practicing law and absolute embarrassment. STAY AWAY!
Law firm Kanner & Pintaluga settled my case without my permission!
A girl from the frim called me a few months ago with an offer on my personal injury case. I told her "absolutly not" and then I explained why. She said okay no problem.
I've been waiting to hear back for a new offer. Well, I called today to get a copy of some paperwork that a different attorney requested and that's when they told me my case had already settled!
In addition, the girl I had the conversation with is no longer an employee!
These people are the most unprofessional you will ever come across.
I had an accident 20 months ago and contacted 1-800-411-pain. I was automatically connected to this firm. I did not not do a GOOGLE search then. 20 moths later my case still remains to be resolved.
Today I can confirm all the negative reports out there. Kevin Soebel never returns any phone calls. Samantha is slow, rude, incompetent to sum it up. 1-800-411-pain needs to to take responsibility for working with such partners.
I will never use them again and I will strongly discourage anybody from using them.
I was involved in an accident on nov 4 2012 ,i told my wife i was not calling an attorney, and that sparked an argument so nonetheless i dialed 411 pain,and i got hooked up with kanner and pentaluga they were so eager for me to sign and go get an MRI done,and see all types of doctors that trumped up the charges for my bill .Once i was telling them that my injuries was no longer present and i wanted stop treatment, tgey got upset and said that i needed to continue getting treatment even though i was hurting anymore, i was having financial difficulties and really needed money, kevin sobel told me if i continue treatment he would be able to get a loan company to loan me some money, so i continued treatment simply because i needed money, i later found out kevin sobel owned this loan company where i was loaned 3000.00 dollars and charged 5500.00 dollars to repay in order to get this loan he.
Kevin Sobel instructed me to get three epedoral shots in my neck which later i was charged 9042.00 for,at this point i had enough and i demanded my cade be closed ,but they kept saying we dont have my bills after ten months, so i went and got my bills for them ,then they said they do not have my insurance lean letter,so i called and got that letter,and my insurance agent said she has been calling and sending letters and had not heard from them in over 6 months, now i finally got the case to settle and they wont release my money the case settled for 50.000.00 dollars, im supposed to get 12.000.00 dollars #wow! I know robbery right ,everytime i call about my money they hang up up on me ,curse at me ,call me a psycho on occasion, i told kevin Sobel that i was going to report him to the bar,he said they wont do anything but ask a few questions, i told him about all his bad reviews he says they are all fake ,well this one isnt fake.
i called today and he said you called me five times a day what are you crazy ,dont call here anymore you m*********** ,i was in shock ,but this behavior from Kevin Sobel is normal,the main office in Duluth, GA is not an office at all its an old regis building with none of his staff is there but its listed as the main office (2180 satellite blvd Duluth ga suite 400)my closing statement came from this address, i spoke to state farm and my adjuster and this is where my check was sent to This was a huge mistake doing business with these people,thanks 411 pain i called the ga bar complaints office they told me that there was nothing they could do but they dont condone this behavior (brushed me off) im going to sue Mr Sobel for misrepresentation, and punitive damages, my family (wife and five kids )has been evicted twice waiting for this check right before thanksgiving if there is anyone interested in getting involved in a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST KANNER AND PENTALUGA AND KEVIN SOBEL please call me or email me
Have you enough people you only need five I believe. My friend has been trying to get his settlement check since April and there is always an excuse. He is considering going to the media you might want to try the same
Only thing firm cares about is if you lie and say you are hurt or have pain, otherwise they won't even bother to call you back. I went to one session of physical therapy and since I never went back, they withdrew from my case without my knowledge. Not even an email, message or correspondence after I have been trying to get a hold of them for a week now. This is the reply I get from corporate after my upset email: "we no longer represent you. We withdrew on your case. Please cease comminucation with us. You are free to get another attorney". So I replied with:"Thanks for the heads up.. bastards.... (ok I shouldnt have said it but I am VERY upset as now my car is still not fixed, have accrued bills in rental cars, loss wages, etc. but that is no way shape or form for a firm or professional to conduct themselves and i am defitently filing a complain with the FLorida Bar. This is what they write: "u are a class act.. nice language.. . Sure glad we dont represent someone such as yourself. U must be so proud of yourself. "
They are the most unprofessional lawyers in all of Palm Beach county Do No USE them!
I was in a car accident they recommended I go to therapy because I have some neck & upper back pain after I started going to therapy I had to call them at least once a month to get an update on my case. They NEVER called me. Most of the time the girls that answer the phone would just transfer me to a voice mail.
I had not heard from them in a over 3 months. Im A busy Full-Time student & I work a 40 Plus hour job overnight to support myself so my time is very limited. I hadn't had time to call them & even if I did I would just get transferred to a voice mail anyways. (They would never return my calls) I had to call over 3 times to be able to speak with an actual "HUMAN" He then informed me that they are not taking my case!
I was very upset to say the least not that they did not take my case after the investigation they did.
What I was really upset about was the fact that they didn't have the decency to call me, email me, or get in contact with and informed me they couldn't take my case. I asked them repeatedly when did they find out that they could not take my case?
Nobody had an answer... simply they told me that they would send me a letter in the mail explaining why. I asked them why did nobody inform me by phone or email or even send me a letter before? they once again had noooooooo... answer for me.
I was very polite and nice even though i was fuming and it didn't help that nobody really spoke english. so i had to speak spanish to them they could understand me. They declined to inform me when they knew that I was not going to be an eligible client to them. They should have called me as soon as they found out.Like i said I am upset about the lack of professionalism.Best part is now im stuck with a huge bill
I went through this law firm after my serious car accident because of a d**n 800-411-pain commercial on the radio. That was one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. Last year I was involved in a serious accident where I became permenantly disabled. I cannot work and being a single mother of three children money is very tight. I was excited when last year December I was told that my case settled and I would be receiving my settlement by February or March.
I gave it until April before I started calling to find out where my case was. The woman who was handling my case told me that she was working on it and when she settles she will give me a call back. I informed her that I would give it another month before calling her back. She immediately caught an attitude and told me that she will call me and there was no need to continue to follow back up.
May came and I called back as I promised I would. She avoided my phone calls until I threatened to take my case to another law firm. When I did speak with her she was very nasty and told me that these things takes time but she's working hard on it. I told her that due to unforseen circumstances and my upcoming 7th surgery since the accident that I didn't care about the accident and I would need the funds to be released ASAP. She assured me that she would do so by the end of May.
Two weeks later I call back and get the run around. Finally I got fed up and demanded to speak with the lawyer. I got all kinds of excuses of why I couldn't be transfered to him. He was busy, he was in court, he was on a phone call, etc. All of that is fine but I just wanted to leave a voicemail. Finally after some more threatening to leave to go to another law firm I get through to someone who claims to be my attorney. Within a week I find out that the woman 'quit' and my file was transferred to someone new.
5 months later and I'm still battling to get my settlement. I'm totally getting ready to lose everything and have been without water for over a month, and pretty soon I will be evicted and will lose my car. I have $100 to my name and that's to last for 3 more weeks. We don't have much food in our fridge and I have a disabled child. Choosing this law firm for it's catchy jingle instead of doing my research is the biggest mistake that I could've possibly made.
Please understand that I wouldn't be sitting here taking the time out to let people know if it wasn't fact. Research your law office before you go along and sign anything. They are getting over 33% and haven't worked much to earn it. In fact I have done more to get my bills reduced and settled than they have. And of course they aren't willing to reduce the amount of their fee!

I hadn't had time to call them & even if I did I would just get transferred to a voice mail anyways. (They would never return my calls) I had to call over 3 times to be able to speak with an actual "HUMAN" He then informed me that they are not taking my case!
I was very upset to say the least not that they did not take my case after the investigation they did.
What I was really upset about was the fact that they didn't have the decency to call me, email me, or get in contact with and informed me they couldn't take my case. I asked them repeatedly when did they find out that they could not take my case?
Nobody had an answer... simply they told me that they would send me a letter in the mail explaining why. I asked them why did nobody inform me by phone or email or even send me a letter before? they once again had noooooooo... answer for me.
I was very polite and nice even though i was fuming and it didn't help that nobody really spoke english. so i had to speak spanish to them they could understand me. They declined to inform me when they knew that I was not going to be an eligible client to them. They should have called me as soon as they found out.Like i said I am upset about the lack of professionalism.Best part is now im stuck with a huge bill
I went through this law firm after my serious car accident because of a d**n 800-411-pain commercial on the radio. That was one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. Last year I was involved in a serious accident where I became permenantly disabled. I cannot work and being a single mother of three children money is very tight. I was excited when last year December I was told that my case settled and I would be receiving my settlement by February or March.
I gave it until April before I started calling to find out where my case was. The woman who was handling my case told me that she was working on it and when she settles she will give me a call back. I informed her that I would give it another month before calling her back. She immediately caught an attitude and told me that she will call me and there was no need to continue to follow back up.
May came and I called back as I promised I would. She avoided my phone calls until I threatened to take my case to another law firm. When I did speak with her she was very nasty and told me that these things takes time but she's working hard on it. I told her that due to unforseen circumstances and my upcoming 7th surgery since the accident that I didn't care about the accident and I would need the funds to be released ASAP. She assured me that she would do so by the end of May.
Two weeks later I call back and get the run around. Finally I got fed up and demanded to speak with the lawyer. I got all kinds of excuses of why I couldn't be transfered to him. He was busy, he was in court, he was on a phone call, etc. All of that is fine but I just wanted to leave a voicemail. Finally after some more threatening to leave to go to another law firm I get through to someone who claims to be my attorney. Within a week I find out that the woman 'quit' and my file was transferred to someone new.
5 months later and I'm still battling to get my settlement. I'm totally getting ready to lose everything and have been without water for over a month, and pretty soon I will be evicted and will lose my car. I have $100 to my name and that's to last for 3 more weeks. We don't have much food in our fridge and I have a disabled child. Choosing this law firm for it's catchy jingle instead of doing my research is the biggest mistake that I could've possibly made.
Please understand that I wouldn't be sitting here taking the time out to let people know if it wasn't fact. Research your law office before you go along and sign anything. They are getting over 33% and haven't worked much to earn it. In fact I have done more to get my bills reduced and settled than they have. And of course they aren't willing to reduce the amount of their fee!
