Very Impressed

I was in a very tramatic auto accident where I sustained injuries that required surgery. On top of bodily injury my car was totaled and, I developed a fear of driving and riding in a motor vehicle. It took months to recover and return to work. I contacted Peter Biscontini to handle my case. He... immediately got to work investigating the accident. He contacted me whenever he had questions or needed documentation to assist in the case. He came and, visited me at my home and brought paperwork I needed to review and sign. In spite of the nature of our meeting; overall my experience with Peter was very pleasant. He did what needed to be done to make sure I was awarded enough to cover not only medical expenses, cost of new vehicle but, also pain and suffering. If ever I needed or someone I know would need services related to this type of case I would highly recommend Mr. Peter Justin Biscontini and, be confident that they also would be pleased with the service he will provide.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
