Thank you to D'Amico Pettinicchi Injury Lawyers for sponsoring the UMass Pre-Law Club's recent trip to UConn Law! We enjoyed seeing key locations on campus, sitting in on a mock trial, and having our questions answered in a Q&A. We learned important information and gained valuable insight on all things UConn Law!

I am a personal injury and medical malpractice lawyer in New York City. Simply put, D'Amico & Pettinicchi is a great law firm. We have referred several cases to them and they always do a great job for their clients. All of the attorneys are not only very skilled litigators, but they are truly good people who genuinely care about their clients.

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.

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.

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 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

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.

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.

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.

Attorney Jeremy D’Amico and Paralegal Stacy Crochet were truly incredible to work with. After being involved in a terrifying accident in 2018 with my mom and sibling due to a wrong-way driver, I was overwhelmed and scared. From the very start, they treated us with kindness, respect, and genuine care, making sure we felt heard and supported throughout the entire process. Jeremy took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand, never making me feel like just another case. During the trial, I was emotional and nervous, but he was patient and compassionate, which meant the world to me. Stacy was also amazing—always available to answer questions and provide guidance. This firm truly feels like family, and I can’t imagine having gone through this experience with anyone else. If you’re looking for attorneys who are not only highly skilled but also incredibly caring, I can’t recommend them enough. Thank you for everything you’ve done for my family and me!

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.

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.
