David J. Philippone's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have had the pleasure of appearing in numerous workers' compensation matters with Dave as opposing counsel. I can truly say that he provides the most vigorous and tenacious representation of all his clients. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Dave both as opposing counsel and a person."

Any potential plaintiff, injured worker, or criminal defendant will be in very good hands with Mr. Philippone as his or her lawyer."
