Took risk that other lawyers would not

Apparently you cannot file a claim against a city in New Jersey. At-least that's what I was told by two other lawyers, before contacting Mr. Pisano who just said "come on over to my office". Inside of ten minutes he dictated formal notices on my behalf which apparently preserved my rights. Within day...s he hired an engineer to establish the negligence of the city and contrary to the advice of the un-energetic lawyers I first spoke to, Mr. Pisano was able to obtain a large settlement on my behalf, which is having a long term positive effect on my finances. More people should be aware of this man as he refuses to advertise, but out works any other attorney I am aware of through unreal energy and enthusiasm.

Tough, innovative and amazing outcome

I was in a serious accident, which brought about the need for two surgeries. I was unaware that my policy only allowed a $15,000.00 maximum settlement. As I was traveling on a work related assignment, Mr. Pisano convinced Judge that my employer's automobile policy afforded me additional coverage unde...r a new statute. Wow! What followed was a huge binding award, which the insurance company was forced to immediately pay. What a great lawyer!!!! Fast and expeditious beyond belief.

Bluntly candid efficient to the max

Lien machine like no other. Takes your call, often on the first ring. Minimizes inconvenience. Personally communicates steps in your case often in the evening, so as to give adequate time. Pushed my case out to trial in record time at which time the insurance carrier paid out the entire 250,000.00 po...licy. Very entertaining if not charismatic guy. Looks, dresses conducts himself at all times like the top tier professional that comes to mind when thinking of the ultimate lawyer. Energy level of this guy is incomparable.

Great Litagator

I interviewed two other lawyers before meeting Mr. Pisano and immediately concluded that he was the right lawyer for me. He actually filed my lawsuit during our initial meeting. True to his promise, he took or returned every one of my calls during the amazingly fast 14 months that it took for Mr. P...isano to get my case to trial. I was also amazed at how he obtained cooperation from all of my doctors so as to prove my case.

Thrilled with results

Mr. Pisano somehow managed to take every one of my telephone calls during the two years he represented me with respect to a serious personal injury case. The insurance company used ridiculous tactics to try to dismiss my case which Mr.Pisano fought every time. I will recommend Mr.Pisano to all my fr...iends and family.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"John Pisano is, without question, one of the best personal injury attorneys in the state of New Jersey. There are very few attorneys who handle cases as well as Mr. Pisano. He takes a no nonsense approach to his practice to ensure that he gets the best results for each and every client. His law firm is truly unparalleled in that way. He manages every case with exceptional expertise. He is a seasoned attorney having handled thousands upon thousands of personal injury cases with outstanding results. There are countless personal injury attorneys in New Jersey, however, finding quality representation is vitally important for clients to have some peace of mind after sustaining injuries in an accident. I have worked with Mr. Pisano and have seen first-hand how his representation is far superior to that of other attorneys. Attorneys of this caliber are few and far between. Mr. Pisano is surely one of the best."
