Excellent attorney & support staff

Chris DiGiralamo was an excellent advocate in my negligence case. His confidence, professionalism and kindness made this difficult process easier for my husband and myself. The same for his support team. Marisol Suarez was always there via phone, email or text helping me to navigate the difficulties ...of Workers Comp in addition to the negligence case and Karen Sanchez, who recommended the firm to me, was invaluable in helping with video & pictures. I thank you all here, publicly, and recommend this firm highly for any legal needs.

Christopher DiGirolamo of Maggiano, DiGirolamo & Lizzi was great!!

I used Christopher DiGirolamo for a workers comp case. I was told by everybody that I didn't have a case. I was referred to Chris, who not only took my "unwinnable" case, but felt he could get me a fair settlement. He was good at explaining what the process was in a way I would understand and kept... me informed along the way. His courtesy and professionalism always kept me at ease. He explained to me what my options were and helped me make the right decisions for my case. Chris and Marisol Suarez responded to emails and phone calls in a timely manners. From a few meetings with him, Chris was able to get all necessary information and he quickly, knowledgeably and professionally closed my case getting me far more than I expected. He fought for and got the maximum amount the judge recommended. I would highly recommend Christopher DiGirolamo for the professionalism and diligence shown to me during this process.

My Experience

Mr. DiGirolamo represented me during a workman compensation case and was quite helpful in bringing about a fair settlement to the case. His attention to my case and knowledge of the law made for the entire process to be handled in a timely manner. His helpful staff remained in contact with me during ...the entire event. I'm glad I had Mr DiGirolamo as my attorney and will seek his council in the future should the need arise.

Workers Comp / Accident Injury

I cannot speak more highly of Chris DiGirolamo and Mariso Suarez! They have provide me the care and attention to my case that is above and beyond what I expected. Marisol, has been there to help with all of the paperwork surrounding the case and even worked with the insurance companies claims team t...o get me an extension of physical therapy treatments that went past the ins. companies normal amount for this type of injury. Chris has worked diligently throughout, first getting a great resolution for me on the Workers comp case in the NJ Workers Comp court. Then he went above and beyond to find an appropriate attorney in the state were my accident occurred who will be able to represent me on the injury claims against the parties where the injury occurred. I highly recommend Chris and Marisol, I don't believe you will find better to help you.

Workers' compensation

Chris helped me after I was involved in a motor vehicle accident while at work. He was a no nonsense upfront lawyer. I would highly recommend him and I would use his services again.
