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.

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

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.

After a rear-end collision that totaled my vehicle, not only was I terrified but at a loss of what to do next.

They took over my case, explained everything step by step what will be happening. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone who needs an injury lawyer.

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.

Attorney D’Amico represented my husband and I after we were in a serious motorcycle accident. We were very impressed how prepared and knowledgeable he and his entire staff were in handling our case. We soon found out he is very well respected and a dominant force in the legal profession.Someone you want on your side for sure. Highly recommend this law firm!

I recently had an opportunity to attend a Focus Group at the law firm which helps both the attorney and the client as they prepare for an actual upcoming trial. The simulated courtroom and jury box created an atmosphere to help them present their findings and receive feedback from "fake" jurors. It was great experience for me to see the legal system in action preparing to help someone who was injured.

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!

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.

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!
