Attorney Referrals

Due to our track record of success in complex and difficult litigation, a significant portion of our cases are referred to us by other lawyers who value our expertise in litigating catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. Because we are located in downtown Washington, DC, we are frequently asked to represent tourists, business travelers, and other visitors to D.C. who have sustained injuries at hotels, restaurants, office buildings, stadiums, event venues, and sightseeing destinations, or while they are in transit at the airport or on local Metro trains and buses.

In our work with referring co-counsel, we have obtained significant jury verdicts and settlements for victims of motor vehicle crashes, traumatic brain injuries, inadequate residential or commercial security, construction site failures, dangerous premises, and unsafe walking surfaces. We attribute our triumphs in the courtroom and at the bargaining table to thorough preparation, as well as a willingness to invest the resources that serious cases require.

If you have a case that you would like us to consider, please give us a call anytime. We have successfully completed joint representations on cases in the D.C. metro area on numerous occasions with referring counsel from all over the country in accordance with a fee sharing arrangement as permitted Rule 1.5(e) of the D.C. Bar’s legal ethics rules. Such arrangements have ranged from our firm acting solely as local counsel for referring counsel who wants to retain “first chair” control over the case, to an outright referral to us for all litigation and trial responsibility for the case. Given that both of the partners at our firm are Past Presidents of the D.C. Trial Lawyers Association with extensive litigation and trial experience, we are frequently invited to act as lead counsel by out-of-state referring counsel, where we take primary responsibility for investing the personnel, time, and money necessary to successfully prosecute serious cases. We invite you to call us to discuss the referral of your case.

I run a personal injury firm in Memphis and when one of my clients reached out to me after he was involved in a crash with a large truck in Virginia, I immediately contacted Dan Singer. I’ve followed the growth of Dan’s practice over the years (he and I knew each other from our law school days in DC) and I was confident that he would treat my client with respect – and not push him to settle for peanuts.

Dan kept me in the loop throughout the case and he and his firm obtained a very solid outcome for my client. As an attorney who regularly gets asked for out-of-state referrals, I would absolutely continue to refer Maryland, Virginia and DC car/truck crash cases to Trombly and Singer.

Daniel Singer is an amazing attorney who really goes above and beyond for all his clients’ needs.

Jayson Hamrick, Esq. from Bailey, Javins, & Carter in Charleston, WV —

As a Washington, D.C. based attorney who specializes in employment law, I am acutely aware of the complexities, costs and pitfalls of handling complex civil litigation, including traumatic injury matters. That being the case, I typically refer those very challenging matters to experienced lawyers who specialize in such litigation. I recently had the good fortune of referring just such a case to Trombly & Singer, highly experienced attorneys in the District of Columbia and surrounding jurisdictions. The case involved catastrophic injuries and, is often the case, liability issues were present. The skilled lawyers at Trombly & Singer accepted the case, and worked it up prodigiously and thoroughly. In fact, they left no stone unturned. Their hard work and diligence resulted in an excellent settlement, whereby the young seriously injured client will be taken care of for the remainder of his life. The affected family, personal friends of mine, were extremely satisfied, grateful and relieved with the outcome. Based upon my experience, I would highly recommend the firm of Trombly & Singer to handle any significant personal injury matters.

John E. Carpenter, Esq. —

I am a solo practitioner in NYC, focusing primarily on personal injury matters. When a local client contacted me for a serious injury sustained in a Maryland accident, I did not hesitate. I contacted Dan Singer at Trombly & Singer, PLLC. As they say, the rest is history! Dan pushed all the right buttons throughout the course of the litigation and obtained a settlement beyond the client’s expectations. Dan was also in constant contact with me, keeping me updated on the progress of the case. Any attorney needing a quality and experienced attorney for a Maryland personal injury case need not go any further than Daniel Singer, Esq. I recommend him (and his firm) 100% and look forward to working with him again in the future.

Aron Wulf, Esq. —

For your Washington, D.C. and Maryland personal injury referrals there is no finer firm than Trombly & Singer. Both Ken Trombly and Dan Singer are experienced and responsive. They are knowledgeable, easy to work with and ethical. They should be your first call for any of your injured clients.  I am a certified specialist in personal injury and wrongful death litigation in Arizona and an AAJ and ABOTA member. Over the years, I have referred several injured clients and friends to Trombly and Singer, both of whom have provided world-class representation while achieving excellent results.

Steven Cohen from Cohen Law Group —

I’m a probate attorney so I have to refer out all my personal injury cases. I never hesitate to refer potential clients to Trombly and Singer, because they’ve represented multiple clients of mine and have provided great customer service and achieved excellent results.

Michael Forster from Forster Law Firm —

I recently worked with Dan Singer as co-counsel on a catastrophic injury motor vehicle accident case in Washington, DC. Dan was as advertised – smart, tactical, professional and just an all around great guy. We were able to obtain a multiple seven figure settlement for our client. I was extremely happy with my decision to work with Dan on this case and the outcome was undeniably fantastic. I highly recommend Dan and Trombly & Singer for anyone in need of a catastrophic injury lawyer in Washington, DC.

Sean Farrelly from Kingbird Legal, P.C. —

Absolute five star representation. I’m a personal injury and wrongful death litigator based in NYC. When a lifelong friend was badly injured in D.C., I was anxious about where to send her. A colleague recommended Trombly & Singer and I couldn’t be happier that she decided to go with them. Dan Singer did an incredible job for my friend and obtained a recovery exponentially higher than I anticipated. He was quick to answer emails and kept me apprised throughout the years-long process. If I ever need to refer another case to a D.C. lawyer, I won’t hesitate to call him immediately.
