I hired Robert Miklos and his law firm for a medical malpractice matter. I underwent a surgery and had a very serious complication that required me to undergo invasive treatments every single day to help manage the outcome. He fought for me and my family to obtain a multimillion dollar result. I highly recommend him for any type of medical malpractice lawsuit that you may have.
I hired Robert Miklos for my medical malpractice case. I went through a very serious life-threatening medical situation that involved medical negligence. Robert represented me throughout the entire process and obtained a multimillion dollar settlement for me to secure my financial future. This compensation has provided me with the opportunity to regain my independence and sense of dignity. I am forever grateful.
I worked with Robert on a construction accident case where I was injured. After a long fought battle he was able to get me close to a million dollars in a very conservative venue. He always kept me informed and made sure that I knew what was going on in my case. I would highly recommend him for any personal injury and construction accident cases.
What makes a GREAT lawyer is the combination of human qualities and legal knowledge. Robert excels in this. Not only is he knowledgeable in legal matters, but he is meticulous in his fact-finding. What is even more impressive is the fact that he is able to explain everything in layman's terms. I highly recommend Robert Miklos for a dealing with any medical malpractice matter!
Robert Miklos and his firm represented me and my family against a nursing home in Queens when they did not provide adequate care to my mother after she had a stroke. I have been satisfied with the representation, and result. I recommend Robert and his firm to anyone who needs a consultation with a lawyer specializing in medical malpractice.
Fantastic experience with Joe Awad. Very responsive and knowledgeable.

Hired Law Firm
Spoke with Justin early this week, professional, sharp, and honest. Though the firm would not take my case, but still treated me with respect and offered advice. This is the kind of law firm you want to have a relationship. Highly recommended.
I highly recommend Robert Miklos. He helped me with a personal injury case that involved me suffering a serious injury at work. We were able to sue the third party company and recover a large settlement in a short amount of time. I am grateful to him and his firm.

Hired Law Firm
I was involved in an accident in June 2016, I was referred to Silverstein Award Miklos to handle my case. I could not be happier with the services I received from my attorney. He is extremely efficient and professional. He was responsive to my phone calls and emails and always available to answer questions. I would highly recommend their services to friends and family in future.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
