Christopher Joseph Baione

I hired Christopher Baione in one of my darkest times, I was a 911 victim and he and his team helped me through the process with gentleness and kindness, they are very supportive and knowledgeable about what to expect throughout the process. I already referred family members to Mr Baione. I want to l...et everyone know if your having a problem go and seek Mr Christopher Baione you won’t be disappointed, what makes him great is his caring personality.

Chris Baione and his firm exemplifies all the best qualities of a top tier NYC attorney and law firm. They’re honest, professional, smart, efficient, diligent, and extremely fair to everyone. These qualities are inherently organic within the firm’s culture. Chris is a wonderful throwback to NYC’s pas...t eras of high quality service, deeds, and results. He’s classy, respectful, kind, intelligent, street smart, proficient, and he works very hard. He’s down to earth, too, and did I also mention he’s a NYC lawyer? He’s returned calls to me at 7pm to 9pm, and emailed me back during the weekends. They work for you, and work very hard to win. This was not the case with my prior attorney before Chris. I began the VCF claim process in 2018. Time was working against me. I had contacted 20 of NYC’s VCF attorneys. I had worked in sales on Wall Street during the 80s & 90s, and was familiar with certain tendencies. Only 4 of 20 firms passed my lenient tests. None were the large & powerful 9-11 law firms. The large law firms all failed miserable. I was given bad VCF advice by lawyers and paralegals, outright lied to, a firm’s staff carelessly disclosed privy & personal client information to me, some lawyers only wanted easy slam dunk claims with 1 million plus reward potential, others wanted me to do all the grunt work before they would take my claim. Then they would submit my own hard work for me, and collect an easy 10% with no work being done. Think about the latter. One attorney that gave me the latter condition, called me multiple times to check my progress. Then they called and told me they had mailed correspondence to me but it came back, and wanted to know if I still intended to file my claim. When I returned their call, they couldn’t bother to speak with me, and had their paralegal regurgitate their words to me. The paralegal finally admitted no correpsondence was sent to me. Another lawyer that wanted me to do the work first, thought he was Gordon Gekko, and spoke to me as such. His VCF knowledge was weak and he was high-browed. He’s with a large law firm that is aggressively prospecting and advertising for new 9-11 clients everywhere. Other law firms sold my contact information. I was getting cold called by unknown lawyers, law firms, or con artists, non stop, at all hours. They had called my back up phone, and asked to speak with my alt name used to contact them. Busted. This is just some of the nonsense that I dealt with before Chris. Learn from my experience. The 9-11 VCF claims industry is brutal, vicious, ruthless, deceitful, and a minefield. You can lose a very solid claim because your lawyer was incompetent, really didn’t care to go all out for you, or works for a ‘cookie mold’ ‘one size fits all’ law firm, that just processes VCF claims en masse. They’re concerned only with their bottom line, not maximizing your award. Call multiple attorneys, and make sure that one of your calls is with Chis Baione. You will have everything to gain, and really nothing to lose by calling him. I’m confident that you will arrive at the same conclusions that I did, after meeting with him. My own VCF case was solid but old, and needed a competent lawyer with the resources and commitment to complete it. Lawyers had advised me it would go to appeal. Chris did too, so he and his team worked very hard to try to prevent this. They had succeeded. If you had already hired another attorney, and had received your award, it wouldn’t hurt to contact Chris to have him review your claim and reward. It’s possible that some award money was left behind. If this review helped you, and Chris helps to bring you some manner of justice from 9-11, as he has done for me, just pay it forward to other potential 9-11 victims, by steering them to Chris Baione and his law firm, Pitta and Baione. No one needs to be traumatized, or victimized again, when searching for an ethical, honest, and competent, 9-11 attorney, after having to suffer through and dealing with 9-11-01.

Chris Baione is not only intelligent he’s kind and endearing he treats his clients with warmth and sincerity the kind you can’t fake it’s the kind that comes with the right upbringing and genuinely a beautiful heart. Anyone who knows him is truly blessed to have him in their lives whether personally ...Or professionally. My family and I highly recommend Chris and his firm/family for all your legal needs. They are truly outstanding!!!!

Chris helped me with my Zadroga case that has been dragging since 2011. I can write all day long and it still won’t be enough to praise how dedicated and fair this attorney is. Chris is selfless, he fights to fair and just, he fights for what is right. Chris was very reassuring during our initial con...sultation and his office made me feel very at ease with the whole process. I received updates as and when necessary so I knew where I stood the entire time. I would not hesitate to use Chris's profound expertise again should I need further assistance in the future. Chris is your man!
