Could not be more satisfied with my results. I did not have to do a thing just follow the instructions and that was it. Hassle free and worry free. They took great care of me in my situation.

Good people
My experience with this firm was spectacular, from start to finished, I was well represented. They cared about you and your well-being. Casey was just wonderful, Ashleigh was on things just non stop, checking on me, and making sure I get the treatment needed to get better. They are what I would call good people. I will forever be grateful for all they have done for me.

Thank you Casey, Mike Bottaro and Team!
Absolutely excellent. I was completely new to the process and Mike Bottaro's team helped me every step of the way. Casey was my attorney and I couldn't have asked for better representation. Honestly, I was scared about reaching out to lawyers after my accident because of my inexperience with the legal process in general. Now, I'm confident from my experience with Casey and Mike Bottaro's team that I'm in safe hands if another situation were to arise in the future. Thank you all again Casey, Mike Bottaro and team!

THE VERY BEST INJURY LAW FIRM
The Bottaro Law Firm proceeded on my case immediately. Such a caring staff and I couldn’t have asked for a better firm. Professional legal team, Samantha & Amanda reached out to me, checking to see how I was and showing me how much they cared, praying for my recovery. I am so grateful that Mike and all his staff wished me a speedy recovery along with prayers as I really needed them. They accomplished what they set out to do and boy, did they deliver! Thank you Mike and everyone at The Bottaro Law Firm. Remember 777-7777.

AWESOME TEAM!!!!
I can not say enough about how great I was treated from day one. They have an awesome team starting from Samantha to Shana to Greg. Everybody went out of their way to make sure I was constantly informed and kept updated. I was even surprised that I was contacted by Mike Bottaro himself personally which showed me they do care. I was more than happy with my settlement which was more than three times with the insurance company had offered. If Ever I need a personal injury lawyer again I will definitely be contacting the Bottaro aw firm and I suggest anybody else do the same. Thank you again to everybody at the Bottaro law firm.

Best law firm ever
First and foremost, I would like to say that Mike Bottaro and his firm are amazing! They turned a horrible experience into a totally positive one. From day 1, Ashleigh Tari called me in record time and her very first question was “am I ok”? I felt cared for the entire time by Ashleigh, Chris Barone, and of course Mike Bottaro himself. They coordinated my care with appointments that best fit my schedule. I could call at any time and they always replied promptly and always with a solid answer to my questions or problems. I would highly recommend Mike and his firm to anyone!

Client
I want to thank Attorney Bottaro for doing an incrediable job with a very difficult case. His office manager Miss Hanna (I call her) would call me at least every 2 weeks to bring me up as to how my case was going. Mr. Bottaro called me on several occassions also. They were always very caring, and always showed concern for me and how I was doing after my injury. It was a hard fight but Mr. Bottaro and his team never gave up. The final ending result was wonderful and very much appreciated. Thank You Attorney Bottaro and his entire staff for a fantastic job. God Bless you all. Rosanne

"I would highly endorse Mike Bottaro as a skilled and dedicated personal injury and medical malpractice attorney. Mike works for one of the top civil litigation firms in the state of Rhode Island, and has the reputation of being a very qualified and respected attorney. I have known Mike for over three years now, both as supporters of Rhode Island’s only law school (Roger Williams University School of Law), as well as fellow members of the Rhode Island Association for Justice. If I had a question about civil litigation, I would not hesitate to consult with Mike. A great example of Michael Bottaro’s extensive knowledge of civil law in Rhode Island is the fact that Mike is a co-author to the upcoming book “A Practical Guide to Discovery in Rhode Island.” Any client of Mike’s is in good hands."
