Charley (Charles Rothermel) resolved our legal dispute in a very quick, efficient and professional manner. He is of the utmost integrity and has a strong work ethic. He consistently followed up until we achieved the desired result. He offered a free consultation, his fees are very reasonable and he is well worth the money spent!

In my desperate attempt to look for the best lawyers for my case, I was fortunate and lucky enough to come across attorney Michele Bartoli Cain and attorney Charley Rothermel. These two extraordinary attorneys helped me at my lowest point in my life. During our first few exchanges, I immediately felt safe and was reassured that everything was going to be okay. I hired them immediately for my dental malpractice case. My case was potentially an extremely long and tedious case that involved a lot of work on both ends, however Michele and Charley made such effort to help close this case fast and with ease. They are not only amazingly professional but incredibly hardworking and persistent. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is going through a similar experience. Thank you again you two!

One of the greatest gifts of motherhood is intuition. The ability to follow instinct when something feels wrong despite reassurance from a physician that you entrusted with the care of your child. In 2014 at age 12 my daughters world was rocked after a routine wisdom tooth removal, resulted in a lingual nerve injury with ongoing physical and emotional damage. I quickly learned that medical malpractice litigation is a lengthy and tenuous process. Michele Bartoli Cain provided us with realistic expectations and was always available when our family felt overwhelmed with the grueling process. She was compassionate and guided my daughter through the traumatic experience of depositions, dental exams, and trial. Michele and her associates told my daughters story through her eyes and focused on her experience. It was a long hard battle fought for 6 years, but the time and dedication Michele and her team devoted resulted in a substantial award for my daughter. Our family is forever grateful for the knowledge, dedication, and teamwork given in this case. Resolution and healing are a process, Michele and her colleagues made this possible!

I worked with Michele Bartoli-Cain on a complex dental case in which I was the plaintiff. Her experience and expertise are well known within the DC area. As I sought counsel, I contacted eight different lawyers, five of whom referred me to Michele because of her skill within this specialized field. It is clear that she is considered the go-to lawyer for these types of cases. Throughout the case, I found her knowledge of the legal system and dental matters to be exemplary. She shows empathy for her client and tenacity when dealing with the opposing party. She's clearly well connected with a strong industry network (e.g. legal experts) and an established rapport with the key players (e.g. judges and counsel). I personally had the opportunity to see her demonstrate her craft as she quite literally dismantled the defense during depositions and successfully argued our motions to the judge. In the end, she effectively litigated my case to achieve an excellent outcome, guiding me throughout the process and exceeding my expectations. If you have dental issues that require legal counsel, don't hesitate to reach out to Michele or her colleague Charley.

If you are in need of a personal injury attorney, I cant recommend Michele Bartoli Cain enough. Michele came highly recommended by many other attorneys because she was simply the best of the best when it came to dental malpractice. As with any personal Injury case, I was dealing not only with the pain and life adjustments caused by my injury but also the stress and uncertainty of a lengthy legal battle. It was so easy to feel like a number and not a person when dealing with the dentists that caused my injury, so having Michele represent me was by far the best decision I made during that difficult time. Michele made me feel human again, she handled my case with compassion and understanding while also fighting for me with a fierce intensity that ultimately lead to a settlement we were extremely happy with. Her hard work and determination when working on my case was evident during each deposition - truly showing me that I was in the best hands possible. If you have the chance to work with Michele, do not pass it up, she is a rare gem in her field and will fight hard for you while also providing you with the compassion needed during such difficult circumstances.
