Achieves great results!

I would absolutely recommend Tony Baratta. Tony is an excellent, and dedicated attorney. He was able to successfully represent me for a sensitive matter, over the span of four years. Tony was there and took his time addressing any of my concerns, he was excellent with communication. His assistants/...staff are kind and make you feel comfortable. Tony is passionate and was well prepared for our trial. His presentation was well organized and professionally orchestrated. He even ventured far out to meet an expert witness due to a snow emergency. If Tony takes your case, it’s safe to say, you are in good hands. I am beyond pleased to have had his assistance.

The ultimate professional!

I fell at work and broke my ribs. My hospital bills were not paid by my employer. Actually I don't even think my employer had insurance. At the end of my consultation with Anthony "Tony" Baratta, I knew I was in the best hands. Even though medical bills were piling up , Tony knew exactly what to die ...and assured me justice as well as the full payment of all my medical bills. He and his staff are curteous, and attentive as well as being EXPERTS in their field! After a very short time, with Tony performing all of the research and due diligence regarding my case, he and his team got all of my medical bills paid giving me peace of mind. I highly recommend Tony Baratta if you are ever the victim of the negligence of another. He'll fight for you And win as he did for me.

Excellent service

i fell on ice, broke my leg in several places and needed surgery. I knew that my bills were going to be significant and I needed an attorney. My brother highly recommended Anthony Baratta. I'm really glad that he did. Tony and his staff were courteous, professional, and easy to reach. I knew that ...I was in good hands when an attorney from the firm came out to interview me the same day that I called. Tony followed up with experts in various fields and had a solid case to present for court. Fortunately, he was able to negotiate a fair settlement prior to court. I'm very pleased at the amount of communication that Tony had with me, keeping me informed every step of the way. I was more than satisfied with the entire staff at the firm and I can't say enough about Tony!

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.

I'M TELLING TONY

I am a perfectionist. I am a seasoned Paralegal. I have referred Anthony Baratta so many clients that I cannot count them. I have rescued friends and family members who retained other attorneys and were dissatisfied and handed them over to the competent Tony Baratta. I have been associated wi...th Tony Baratta since 1999. I am convinced he is truly brilliant. He is a concentrator. He is thorough. Tony Baratta does his homework before he takes you on. He analyzes every aspect of your potential case or claim. I use the word "potential" because if he does not feel you'll be successful, have a valid claim, or indeed have been injured or wronged, he will not represent you. That spells honesty and integrity to me. I am impressed by an attorney who returns my calls and despite having incredibly busy schedules; they make themselves available to and for me. And, I absolutely love it when they have researched my questions and come back to me with real knowledge, you know, CORRECT information. That's Anthony Baratta. I've also kiddingly accused Tony of being overzealous. This attorney scores many points with me because he stays in touch with his clients. He copies them on all correspondence so I don't have to wonder if he's paying attention and/or "working on my case." I like being under his "protection." I feel good knowing he's going to fight for me. Also, when Tony Baratta accepts a referral from me, I am at ease that my colleagues, friends, neighbors and family are in very capable hands and I won't be contacted by these clients with an array of complaints and questions. I'm a person who has been around a long time and has developed Stupid People Rage, so Anthony Baratta's expertise of the law coupled with a huge dose of common sense is a gift to me and often a sedative. The man is always prepared and has a penchant for organization. I am exceptionally proud of Tony's hard work and success in his practice----for his clients--- and his conquests in court. Kudos to Baratta, Russell & Baratta
