While visiting Connecticut I was rear ended by a drunk driver. His insurance company initially denied the claim, I needed an attorney. I do not live in Connecticut so I relied on Google reviews to help guide me… the reviews were spot on! Attorney Tom Pettinicchi and paralegal Stacy Crochet are the absolute best! Thank you both so very much! They helped me every step of the way. They are compassionate, they fought for me, and they held the drunk driver and his insurance carrier accountable. I am so grateful for all they have done and continue to do. If you find yourself needing a personal injury attorney, do yourself and your case a favor and call D’Amico Pettinicchi, you won’t regret it. I don’t. Call them now.

Every step of the way I've been extremely impressed and pleased with the terrific representation by D'Amico & Pettinicchi in my automobile accident case. I don't think any firm could have handled my case better. The consistently thoughtful, patient, and informative counsel from Jeremy D'Amico and the impressive D'Amico & Pettinicchi staff is something I will enthusiastically recommend to anyone needing legal services. They are a great team to have as your team.

My car was totaled and I was injured in a car accident December 2022. The person who caused the accident was either distracted or impaired. After the accident, I was confused as to what I needed to do, and how to do it. I found D'Amico & Pettinicchi, LLC on the web, and contacted them. I immediately knew that contacting was the right thing to do. Stacy took control. Told me what she needed from me and "hand-held' me through the process. What a relief. I highly recommend D'Amico & Pettinicchi to handle any accident-related incident. They were the best.

Mike, Jeremy, Stacy, and Kim are the dream team of legal representation. Their clear communication, legal acumen, and attention to detail was truly remarkable. Most importantly they genuinely cared about my family which is what ultimately led to a favorable outcome. Their thoughtful guidance and constant reassurance helped to provide our family with the strength and optism necessary to endure the tedious legal process. My family is forever grateful for their exceptional dedication, expertise, and unwavering support!

I recently participated in a focus group hosted by the firm. It was a great experience. Attorney Pettinicchi, Kimberly, and Samantha were professional, kind, and accommodating throughout the entire process. I enjoyed myself and would definitely consider attending another group. I can see myself referring friends and family to the firm in the future based on the positive experience I had.

Four years ago I was involved in a tragic accident. Having had a very good experience with another attorney at this firm, one of the first things that I did after I was admitted to the hospital was to contact them and ask how to proceed. Admittedly I was initially disappointed to find that the attorney that I used before could not take my case so I would be referred to Tom Pettinicchi. I quickly discovered that my concerns were unfounded. Tom is a brilliant attorney. He and his staff could not have been more thoughtful, compassionate, sincere, and available. They sent beautiful flowers to my hospital room. They brought a gift basket to my home, and when I could not find anyone to drive me to a medical appointment in Manhattan his assistant's husband drove me there. Years later, when I called Tom for help with a dispute with my neighbors, he was so gracious with his time. I always felt that Tom and his staff considered my well being to be a priority. For these reasons, and above all because of the strong integrity of this firm, I would not hesitate to use their services again or to recommend them to anyone else.

I had the opportunity to participate in a focus group led by Attorney Pettinicchi, and it was an outstanding experience. The professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail demonstrated by Attorney Pettinicchi and his team were truly impressive. They were highly engaged, carefully considering every perspective, and it was clear that they are deeply committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for their clients. What stood out most was their thorough approach to case preparation and their ability to break down complex legal issues in a way that was easy to understand. The team was not only knowledgeable but also compassionate and genuinely interested in justice. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend Attorney Pettinicchi and his firm for any legal needs. Their dedication, expertise, and commitment to their clients make them an excellent choice for anyone seeking skilled and trustworthy legal representation.

Following a harrowing automobile accident, I found myself at a loss for what to do next. After thoroughly researching personal injury attorneys, I decided upon the D'Amico & Pettinicchi law firm. Upon the initial consultation with attorney Michael D'Amico and his paralegal, Stacy Crochet, I experienced a sense of optimism and reassurance. Michael is not only a consummate professional, but he is also genuinely caring and compassionate. Throughout the entire process, Michael and Stacy were always readily available to address any concerns and provide guidance. My case was complex, and Michael's legal expertise was exceptional, especially during negotiations. Suffice it to say, my awarded amount was much more than I could have ever imagined. Hands down, I wholeheartedly recommend the law firm of D'Amico & Pettinicchi, if you require legal representation for a personal injury case.

I have given these attorneys five stars. I’d be happy to give them ten. They took a very problematic personal injury case and turned it into a teriffic success. Having been involved with the law for many years, I was in a great position to select any firm, but I chose these lawyers because I know their work and because I was well aware of their stellar reputation throughout the state. I was not disappointed. The result they achieved was twice what I expected. Naturally, I hope I will never again need a personal injury attorney, but if I do, Attorneys D’Amico and Pettinecci will be my guys.

I had no idea what the next move should have been after I was rear-ended on Interstate 95, getting off the highway, and heading to drop my children off. Were my children hurt? Was my car totaled? When I got out to check, I felt pain and I knew something was wrong...fast-forward, once my car was deemed totaled, I knew I had to call someone, and I chose to call Tom Pettinichi. I am so glad I did. The entire team from Kim to Tom - I am well taken care of, and they continue to walk with me as we figure out how to help compensate me, and my family for the losses we faced from getting hit. My body is forever changed, as is the financial health of my family, because of this accident that was not my fault. Thank you to the stellar team at D'Amico & Pettinicchi.

I recently participated in my third focus group with this law firm. They may not be as high profile as other state and national injury law specialists, but they are the best! They are compassionate and thorough as (the "Third Division" of CBS Radio and Television News-Fred W. Friendly and Edward R.) Murrow! (Murrow hired Walter Cronkite.) The firm emphasizes substance over style and logic and rationality! If the need arises, I would absolutely hire them to represent me! I look forward to the opportunity of participating in more future focus groups with them!

I am an attorney in Virginia who has worked with the attorneys at D'Amico and Pettinicchi on a regular basis for more than 25 years, and from what I have seen they are the top personal injury and medical malpractice attorneys in the state of Connecticut. They are supportive, thorough, diligent, prepared, and, as a result, very successful in representing their clients. I highly recommend their services when people need them the most - after you, your loved one, your friend, or your neighbor has been hurt as of the result of another's negligence or wrongful conduct. They are leaders in their field.

I recently participated in a focus group for this law firm. Jeremy D’Amico was leading the discussion group regarding a case he was involved in. His commitment to helping his client was easily seen. He was very organized in his presentation of information to our group, very thorough with the facts he shared with us, and very determined to put together all of the information he would need to provide a strong case for his client. He was very easy to communicate with and willing to answer all of our questions about the information he shared with us. Although I’ve never used his services personally, I can tell he would be great resource based on his thoroughness, dedication, and desire to get his clients what they deserve.
