I had an excellent experience with Wilchins Cosentino & Novins and would highly recommend this firm to anybody. In short, after searching for an attorney to represent my Delayed Diagnosis Action, Michael Cosentino and Susan Novins stepped right up and took the case.

Handled timely and at all times professionally, the case was settled to my complete satisfaction, even better than my highest expectations.

If a similar event, or if any of my family and friends need top professional malpractice attorneys and staff to handle their case, it would be Wilchins Cosentino & Novins, LLP without further thought.

I can not thank them enough for all that this firm did for me and my family.
