“Zamler, Shiffman and Karfis many years ago represented my husband in an asbestosis case related to his employment at Great Lakes Steel and got us an excellent settlement. Unfortunately, my husband developed an asbestos-related lung cancer. Initially, in his lung cancer case, I retained an out-of-state law firm, which I became dissatisfied with their cold and unresponsive attitude. I fired that firm, and I retained Duncan Brown with Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis. Mr. Brown and his staff are courteous, knowledgeable and quickly responded to my calls with complete through answers. I know quality legal representation, because I worked for a large Detroit-based personal injury firm for many years, and I believe Mr. Brown and his staff are excellent. In Michigan, if you have an asbestos-related disease you will be well served by retaining Mr. Brown with Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis, P.C.”
“As a result of being exposed to asbestos-containing products during my employment at the GM Pontiac plants I developed colon cancer. An attorney friend of the family referred me to Duncan Brown of Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis, who he felt was the best attorney to handle my case. My attorney friend was right, Mr. Brown and his staff were fantastic. They were polite and extremely competent. They were on top of all aspects of my case and stayed connected with me during the entirety of my case. Mr. Brown is a very skilled attorney who obtained excellent results on my behalf. He took the extra step of meeting with me at my home to ensure important settlement documentation were properly filled out to expediate the payments of my settlements. My wife and I would whole heartedly recommend Mr. Brown to represent others who may have been injured by being exposed to asbestos-containing products, or any other cases.”
“We are brothers who worked for DTE and initially retained a law firm not based in Michigan to handle our asbestos personal injury cases. Over time we became dissatisfied by the representation provided by that out-of-state firm. We fired that firm, and per the suggestion of several of our co-workers, we retained Duncan Brown of Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis to handle our asbestos claims. It was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Mr. Brown and his staff are knowledgeable, courteous, and effective. They quickly returned our phone calls and fully answered all our questions. The difference between Mr. Brown and the out-of-state counsel was startling. It was quite clear that Mr. Brown had decades of experience in the Michigan litigation with a command of technical aspects of our employment, our unique exposure to asbestos products and the law. He was able to settle our cases for much more money than the out-of-state firm had indicated that our cases were worth. We are so pleased with Mr. Brown that we have recommended him to a number of our co-workers as a superior counsel to handle asbestos cases in Michigan. We have heard from several of our co-workers who have retained Mr. Brown that they too are very pleased with his representation. Mr. Brown and his staff are the best.”
“We would like to thank Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis attorneys Donald Shiffman and Duncan Brown, and their staff, for their excellent handling of our cases. We would encourage others to retain their firm for any social security disability or asbestos personal injury claims. Mr. Shiffman handled a social security disability claim on behalf of Nancy, and Duncan Brown handled an asbestos personal injury action on behalf of Tim. Both Mr. Shiffman and Mr. Brown are seasoned attorneys with vast knowledge of their respective areas of practices. More importantly they were thorough, responsive, and courteous. Each attorney, and their staff, took the extra steps which made us comfortable and confident in the excellence of their representation. We were extremely pleased with the results which they obtained for us. We believe If you want quality legal representation Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis is the firm you should call and retain. As they claim, the call is free, and their advice is priceless.”
The Best Representation for Asbestos-Related Cancer Cases
“My name is Jorgo and I worked in Detroit-area auto plants. There I worked with, and was exposed to, asbestos-containing products and developed lung cancer.
I contacted Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis and retained Duncan Brown to represent me in a suit against the manufacturers of asbestos products.
Mr. Brown personally met with me and regularly let me know how my suit was proceeding. Mr. Brown and his staff, besides being knowledgeable, are courteous and thorough.”
“The manufacturers of asbestos-containing products knew the dangers of their products and hid them from the public. When my father was diagnosed with Mesothelioma, I called Attorney Duncan Brown at Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis. I received immediate and comprehensive answers that were combined with a genuine caring attitude. Every time I called with concerns or questions; those calls were met with quick responses. You will be well served by retaining Mr. Brown and Zamler, Shiffman & Karfis, if you, or a loved one, has been diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease.”

“Paul & Cyndie & Staff- With many thanks for your kindness and help in my worker’s compensation case. I want you to know I appreciate all the time and effort you put into helping me. I couldn’t be happier with the result you obtained on my behalf. Per your advice, I have put $10,000.00 in a savings account for my medical expenses relating to my injuries at Botsford Hospital. As I mentioned to Mr. Shiffman, I have referred several family members to your firm. I believe my brother-in-law will speak to you in the future.”
My extended family was in a horrific car accident out of state. Mr. Zamler and his staff went out of their way to help my family. They made recommendations about what to do and whovm to contact while they were in a hospital out of state and upon their return help them with the proper legal course of action. I cannot say enough good things about them.
