HE'S SIMPLY THE BEST!

Attorney DiBartolo gave me the most positive experience I've ever had with the legal system, by far! He, and his office staff, were immediately responsive, reassuring, thorough, and efficient at every turn for four years after my MVA. He fought hard and long to win a very substantial, fair settlement.... Moreover, he distinguishes himself among the cadre of personal injury attorneys by maintaining a strong moral compass, honest communication, and a fabulous 'bedside manner.' He is adept at connecting with clients, attorneys, and insurance companies. He went beyond the call of duty over and over. I think I'm a discerning consumer, and I have not one bad thing to say about how John handled my case. I recommend him without reservation!

Thank you!

I was in a serious car accident and suffered a concussion and soft tissue damage. John DiBartolo was referred to me by another local attorney, in which I am grateful for. John was compassionate and understanding. He encouraged me to concentrate on getting the necessary medical help and to focus on... my healing, while he took care of the numerous paper works from insurance companies, Medical Drs., etc. During this time it was very difficult for me to truly understand what the process was, and to concentrate on anything, which brought on anxiety. However John always got back to me in a reasonable time frame, answering any concerns that I had, and to give me peace of mind. I am very grateful for attorney, John’s expertise, and for the end result of the settlement. I would recommend John to anyone who needs a personal injury attorney and someone who is caring, compassionate and easy to talk to. Thank you John!

Excellent Personal Injury Attorney

If you are looking for an excellent personal injury attorney who is easy to talk to and who will explain your options in a simple and straight forward way then you need look no further than John DiBartolo. He is an experienced attorney who will fight to get you a fair and reasonable settlement. I w...as in a car accident where the other driver rear ended my car. I suffered whiplash and needed medical treatment for several months. Attorney DiBartolo's office handled all of the paper work for the initial insurance payments, which was very helpful. The insurance company was very difficult and refused to make a reasonable settlement offer. Attorney DiBartolo treated my case as an important one, paid attention to details and prepared the case for trial. At trial, John DiBartolo was well prepared, had an excellent courtroom presence, won some legal arguments on evidence and jury instructions and won the case. The jury award was significantly higher than what the insurance company had offered. I would highly recommend Attorney DiBartolo.

Posted by Peter | July 01, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Slip and Fall Accident

Excellent advocate and commanding courtroom presence

Attorney DiBartolo was referred to me by a previous client of his that was very pleased with his performance, and I would echo that sentiment from my own experience with him. A simple slip and fall accident due to negligence on federal property evolved into a complicated case that went on for four... years. Through it all, Mr. DiBartolo kept me appraised of and actively involved in legal developments as they unfolded. I appreciated his intelligence, professionalism, and preparation, and it was obvious during the trial that the jury was impressed by his commanding courtroom presence, clarity, and down to earth approach to the law. This is someone that you want on your side in a courtroom--he radiates competence and warmth. I was very pleased with my resulting financial compensation, which I believe was maximized by Mr. DiBartolo's efforts. I can't recommend him highly enough.

A Top Notch Professional

If you are looking for the best you can find, John DiBartolo is your man. Bottom line? He got my son a great settlement, one he is happy with. But even better, he is a very smart, kind, and conscientious lawyer who communicates in an articulate, clear manner. If we didn't understand something in th...e case, he made sure we did. When we were stressed out about handling all the paperwork, he took it off our hands. And finally, John really sought to understand the lifestyle and personality of our young son giving good advice throughout the 4 years we worked with him. Thank you, John.
