I have an uncommon advantage over most personal injury attorneys practicing in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Prior to law school, I spent several years as a casualty adjuster for a major insurance provider. In that position, it was my job to value cases and find flaws in personal injury cases. This knowledge gives me a unique edge against my competition.
After spending those years working for the defense side of insurance claims I studied at one of the country's premier law schools and after graduation started my legal career at one of New Englands most prestigious plaintiff trial firms. All I handle are personal injury cases and I feel uniquely suited to do so.

I suffered a lower back injury when my car was T-boned. Nothing broken and no surgery but it took a lot of rehab, cortisone injections and my doctor indicated I would never be the same. The insurance company made an offer that I thought was low but not too bad and I considered settling. Joe convin...

I was rear ended at a high rate of speed and my car was totaled. I did not have health insurance or collision coverage so I was afraid of medical bills and the loss of my car.

After my accident, the insurance adjuster was so rude; I just didn’t want to deal. That’s saying a lot from someone who works in the insurance industry. I hired Joe, as he came highly recommended. He is one of the most professional and thorough attorneys I have ever met. He truly cares about his cl...
