Excellent firm to handle your case

I had the pleasure and good fortune of retaining Tony Baratta to represent me in my vehicle accident. He and his staff are professional and diligent. They are always willing to help and provide answers to all my questions and concerns. Tony's expert advise and guidance throughout my case was reass...uring and personal. He settled my case in a very timely fashion. I wish to thank Tony and his staff and highly recommend his legal services.

Professional Excellence

Tony Baratta and his staff are a cut above the rest! I especially like Tony's secretary Diana she is super helpful. Tony worked on a med mal case for me and was a constant source of support during an extremely stressful time for myself and my family. I would recommend him to anyone who needs an attor...ney. He is not only highly educated, skilled and extremely professional, he is refreshingly honest and he always responds immediately and personally to you no matter what your needs are. Tony is not only an excellent attorney he is a truly descent human being who works diligently for his clients. I give him the highest rating! If you find yourself in need of an attorney or if you are having difficulty with the attorney you have call Anthony Baratta.

Phenominal firm!!

When I suffered a work related injury, I needed to seek legal advice from an attorney. I was referred by an acquaintance to the law firm of Baratta Russell & Baratta. I had never needed an attorney before , and was very nervous. Anthony made me feel comfortable. The entire staff is amazing. Anth...ony is knowledgeable, firm, and to the point. There is no sugar coating of facts whether good or bad. He lets you know where the case stands. No nonsense. The communication between Anthony and the staff that he employs is top notch. Everybody in his office is aware of your personal situation and it makes you feel as though you are the only client he has. It's truly incredible. There was never a time when any information was not passed on, and not once did I hear "I'll have to get back to you on that". Anthony coordinates his team of attorneys around your case and they to are just as attentive of your case. My case dealt with a work related injury, and the company that I work for is very, very large. Needless to say, they have a tremendous amount of resources working on their behalf to discredit my injury situation. Anthony reviewed my situation, acted accordingly and the harassing telephone calls and threatening letters from the company human resources as well as from the company's insurance provider stopped. Without Anthony on my side, I would not have received the proper medical attention I needed and most definitely would have lost any financial support that I am legally entitled to. Anthony not only gives you the proper insight on the laws that are protecting you by explaining your entitlements, but also teaches you how to become a good client as well. This review isn't about a "winning" situation. There are no "winners" when it comes to a serious injury. It's about the protection of your rights and how your rights can be sidestepped by signing papers or making statements that may at the time seem insignificant. That's where Anthony comes in. After hiring Anthony as my attorney, it felt as though the weight of the world was lifted off my shoulders. My compensation checks suddenly started coming in consistently without "delays" ,so they said. Nurse case managers stopped sitting in the waiting rooms as well as in the room with me while with the doctor. Yes, in the room with the doctor and I. It was nuts. All to twist what I was told by the doctors to minimize the truth of my injury. In conclusion, if you are in need of an attorney for a situation like mine, you NEED to hire Anthony Baratta. A truly nice group of people that I am glad were on my side.

Anthony J. Baratta is genuine human being, serves others before himself.

In my life I have witnessed many family and friends deal with a multitude of unexpected issues that have occurred in their lives which required legal representation. I am here to tell you this; Anthony Baratta is a very intelligent, sharp, tender, and compassionate human being. He is able to take the... complicated details of your case, of the law, and if you will, the legal mumbo jumbo and explain it to you in such a way that you don't feel insulted or confused. Anthony will always make sure that you have a full grasp and a complete understanding of the details of your case, at each new level until your case is settled. He is a true professional at every level, but to me and my mother, Anthony is the most genuine and compassionate attorney that I/we have ever communicated with. His entire team of professionals treated my mom, like she was their mom. This entire experience just blew me away, and filled me with such a peace of mind that it made it easier for me to focus on my mom's physical and emotional needs. Anthony is a true, genuine, selfless human being that took time away from his own family on a Sunday to share the great news with me that truly could have waited until Monday, but because he was so excited about the positive outcome for my mom, he made the call . And in today's world of what's in it for me, and it's all about me, who still cares about the needs of others before themselves, Anthony, that's who, he is just an all around great human being and a great attorney as well. Please understand this, Anthony J. Baratta and his entire team have been a huge blessing to me, my mother and our family and I would strongly encourage you to bring his team onboard for any of your legal needs. Sincerely in Jesus Christ name, David R. C.

Precision, Professional, and Personable

When I was feeling most vulnerable and thought all hope was lost, Mr. Tony Baratta and his team of experts assisted in a difficult case that, if lost, would have financially crippled me. Tony provided peace of mind and assisted not just in the civil case but also guided me to the district attorney f...or the criminal case. I am grateful for receiving restitution for my family. I have referred others to him and will continue to do so because of the positive experience and care Tony Baratta gave me.
