What your experience is suppose to be like! Everything I had hoped for in a lawyer...

When your child is hurt in an accident you don't know what to do.. Phones are ringing, insurance companies calling, and all you want to do is take care of your child and get them the care that they need. I didn't need to worry about how I was going to pay for all of this, and answer a million questi...ons when I didn't even have all the answers yet myself. Mr Marzzacco quickly put me at ease, stopped all the phone calls and let me take care of my daughter! He handled everything but always kept me updated on her case and how we needed to proceed. He was kind and dedicated. Anytime I have a question, I quickly got a response from him or his wonderful staff. I really can't say enough about my experience because they were there during the worst year of our lives, and did his part to get my daughter what she deserved. I would never use another Lawyer and would recommend him to everyone and anyone I know. Thank you for Everything!

Slip and fall case

Mr. Marzzacco was a wonderful, caring and effecient attorney. He and his staff worked to get me a fair judgement. My case was handled as if it were his most important, phone calls and emails from me were returned promptly. I would certainly reccommend him and his firm to anyone needing legal assistan...ce .

Wonderful Experience

Chris was fantastic dealing with my case! He was very patient with me. And kept me informed every step of the way. He was always very helpful when I called him or emailed him. He settled my case for far more money than either of us thought possible. I am thrilled to death with the outcome of my case...!!! I will hire Chris for any needs I might have for a lawyer in the future! I would recommend him to anyone if you want great results!!!

More than I could have ever hoped for!

I hired Mr. Marzzacco to represent me in an auto accident case. Early on he set the expectation and kept me in the loop so I always knew where things stood. During a very stressful and what I can honestly say was the most physically painful and challenging time in my life Mr. Marzzacco kept me sane.... He explained all of the complications with my case to me in a way that I understood and helped me make good decisions about my case. In the end, after only a few weeks from when he sent our settlement demand, he got me the maximum settlement for my case. I could not have hoped for a better outcome! I do not know what I would have done without Mr. Marzzacco and his team. I certainly would not have received the settlement that I did. I hope I am never in the situation I was in again but if I am I will call him first thing and recommend him to everyone I know! Thank you for everything!
