The Bartinik Law Firm, P.C.

I was recently a defendant in a civil law suit which lasted for a total of three years. I say total because the plaintiff and his attorney dropped their original suit after two years and then refiled a second suit within days. I was out of money after a two year defense by a major law firm in New Lon...don CT and they saw this as the perfect opportunity and time to let me go suggesting I seek other representation. Facing a new lawsuit and without an attorney I thankfully found Peter Bartinik of the Bartinik Law Firm. Our first conversation was by phone and he had many questions. He also knew I had no savings left as this was the very first thing that I told him. Our second conversation took place at his office where we spend about two hours discussing my case and a plan to move forward. I was grateful that he took my case knowing I could not immediately pay him more than a small retainer. This lawsuit at times could be very confusing as well as emotional for me and Peter would always take the time to be sure that I completely understood what was happening with my case as well as to keep me emotionally grounded. If I called him with a question or concern and he couldn't at that moment take my call he would get back to me in no time at all. He did so much to keep me free from worry and to get me through the final year of a long drawn out mess intact and in my home which was what the lawsuit was all about. This case never went to trial and was settled out of the courtroom. Before the settlement I was facing the possibility of having to lose and leave my home. I now had my home but owed money to Peters' firm and he provided me with a payment plan that I could afford. I would advise anyone in need of legal guidance or defense to look to the Bartinik Law Firm, P.C. in Groton, CT where both Peter J. Bartinik Jr. and his wife Lori will keep you in good and safe hands.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
