Navigating legal battles can be daunting, but Attorney Thomas Pertinicchi was a true asset. He was always a listening ear, promptly returning calls and keeping me informed throughout. His dedication and clear explanations eased my anxieties, and the fantastic paralegal and staff only added to the feeling of being in good hands. It was a complicated case I didn’t think would turn in my favor. In the end, I ended up with a successful outcome and a renewed sense of trust – I highly recommend D’Amico Pettinicchi . Thank you attorney Thomas Pettinicchi.

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.

Attorney Jeremy D’Amico and Paralegal Stacy Crochet were honestly the best Law firm I have had the pleasure of dealing with. I was in a horrible accident in 2018 and was referred to by a friend. It has been nothing but pleasant, stressless, and relaxing during a tragic event. Everything that was happening was broken down and explained to me in terms that I could understand. I was thankful seeing as Attorney lingo isn’t my cup of tea. Attorney D’Amico is highly skilled and cares about his clients. In 2021 I was yet again another accident with my children in the car with a wrong way driver on a highway. You can only imagine how scarry that was. My family and I were going through a very stressful few days, so I reached out to the Firm, and they took all 3 of are cases swiftly and once again treated my family not only as another case but as family. The kids were spoken to as children and respected and that made me extremely happy. My daughter cried during trial and Jermey was nothing but compassionate and understanding. I would like to state if you need a well-grounded, supportive and strong fighter for your case, I suggest giving this firm a call. Also, Stacey was extremely helpful with helping me out with a friend that needed an attorney, she pointed us in the right direction. If you don’t use this firm, you defiantly will miss out on a Top-Notch Attorney. I admire your composure, work ethic, and most of all excellent representation. Thank you all for helping my family and me through a tough patch of our lives.

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 went to Attorney Griffin for advice on recovery of medical funds from a Motor Vehicle Accident. The recovery suit took several years and many conference sessions to finalize. Mark was an excellent counselor, being patient and professional at all times. Eventually we became good friends. His paralegals, Kim Barbato, and Jennifer Brostec were very professional and efficient. The office staff was always friendly and helpful. I definitely would go back here if there was a need for me to seek legal advice in the future

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.

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.
