Peter M Appleton

I was injured in a car accident and at first did not realize how important it is to hire a professional to make the process less stressful while working with insurance companies. Peter Appleton and Amanda handled all insurance issues, always kept me informed, responded quickly to emails and phone c...alls, explained everything I needed to know in easy to understand language and were friendly and compassionate throughout the entire process. I was their priority at all times. I highly recommend Peter Appleton for legal needs and will hire him again should the need arise.

I was injured and didn't expect to need a lawyer until I realized the insurance company was not taking me seriously. Atty. Appleton was recommended to me by a family member and coworker. I have never needed a lawyer before so I didn't know what to expect. My case took a little over 2 years to settl...e, mainly due to the complexity of my injury and the difficult insurance company. Peter and Amanda kept me informed the whole way. They always took the time to explain what was going on, what to expect, and answered any questions I had. Peter has a very calm demeanor and that really helped ease my nerves, as this was all so new to me. He and his staff showed compassion and were always friendly when I went to the office. I can't remember a time that I emailed him and didn't have a response in less than an hour, even on weekends and at night. He was always easy to get in touch with and promptly responded if not available right away. When it came time to settle, no decisions were made without me, and I fully trusted his advice and experience. I would recommend Attorney Appleton to anyone, without hesitation.

I was involved in a car accident in April 2011 and sustained major injuries to my shoulder. After 4 months of sleepless nights, pain/suffering, doctor’s appointments, and physical therapy I knew I needed to consult with an attorney as my medical bills were going to be astronomical. Five months after... the accident I had surgery to repair my shoulder. I was referred to Appleton & Appleton by a physician. Having never hired an attorney for a personal injury claim I didn’t know what to expect. My initial meeting with Peter Appleton was very pleasant and informative. Atty. Peter Appleton was very polite, professional and knowledgeable and he was easy to talk to. He was interested in whom I was as a human being. He provided a great overview of the personal injury claim process. He explained the client/attorney relationship and gave a general outline of how the personal injury claim method begins and assured me that he would work for me and the best possible outcome for my case. It was reassuring to know that I could contact him at any time with questions and concerns either at his office or his cell phone. During the next 2.5 years Atty. Appleton kept me informed and educated via phone calls, emails and or correspondence as he guided me through varies processes or procedures on decisions that both he and I had to consider going forward regarding, case information, depositions, court/jury, arbitration or settling. I never felt rushed or pressured to make decisions in my case. If I had to go into his office his staff was courteous, pleasant and helpful during my visits. Atty. Appleton always returned my phone calls or emails which made it very convenient to reach him. He never once made a decision without consulting with me first and always kept me up to date on the case. If you are looking for a reputable attorney with a wealth of knowledge in injury claim who is personable, pleasant and would go the distance to get you the best result possible, hire Attorney Peter Appleton. He settled my case with the best possible outcome imaginable. I was extremely satisfied with the outcome and I would definitely hire him again!!

From start to finish, Peter Appleton represented me in a supportive, diligent, and dignified manner. I was guided and counseled appropriately throughout the entire process of my accident claim. At our initial meeting, I was uncomfortable, not having experienced this litigation process and, frankly,... not feeling my best due to the persistent pain I was experiencing as a result of the accident. My value structure left me personally uncomfortable with pursuing litigation. However, the reality was that I was unable to work and incurring many, many medical bills. Peter seemed to understand my needs and my hesitations. He patiently spent much time addressing my questions and concerns. Both he and his office support staff were polite and ethical at all times. Additionally, when communicating with medical providers involved in my case, Peter was pleasant, appropriate, and thorough in obtaining medical documentation necessary to support my case. A couple of my medical providers commented on how pleasant he was! Peter was also able to settle my claim quickly and to my satisfaction. I was thoroughly advised of all my options--judge, jury, or arbitrator--and potential consequences of my choices. At no time did I feel rushed or pressured to make decisions in my case. I would not hesitate to recommend Peter as a very good, reliable attorney and a pretty nice guy!
