Awards & Recognitions
Our firm’s experience and resources put clients in a position to recover maximum compensation with the least amount of stress for the individual and their families. It is our job to take the burden from clients so that they can focus solely on recovering physically and emotionally.
Attorney Ian Chaikin recognizes the significance of serious injuries and the impact that they can have on entire families. Clients’ lives and the lives of entire families can be forever changed by the negligence of another in a serious accident, and it is of the utmost importance to the firm that everyone impacted understands that the Chaikin LaPenna team treats every client as their own family and works with a sense of urgency rarely found in the industry.“The consequences of the accident are personal to our clients and they are personal to us,” says partner Chaikin.

I wanted to express my gratitude to Ian who recently finalized a settlement for me after a long lengthy process. He did a great job, kept me in the loop the whole time, had explained our position to me over and over and tried to keep me calm when I would become over emotional.
