John Versace Rafferty

I contacted John to discuss a civil case. After a couple of email exchanges and 2 phone conversations, I hired John to be my attorney. My experience with John was absolutely incredible. His communication was impeccable. Every single correspondence answered my questions or he asked specific questions ...to aid the case. Any time I had a question, he responded usually within 2 hours. I never experienced a delay of more than 12 hours and that was due to time zone differences and my late night messages. The thing that impressed me most about John was his ability to lay out all my options and then let me pick what I wanted to do without influencing my decision. My case could have taken years and years to get resolved. With his effective communication and experience, it was resolved completely within 6 months. This was after nearly two years of working with people before John took my case. The fact it is resolved is something quite frankly I wasn't sure would happen so that is something that went much better than expected. Every message was straight to the point which I appreciate as a business owner. The only thing that could have potentially been handled differently was suing for lost earnings. After discussion with John and my advisors, it was in my best interest to just recoup what I could and not fight for more money I was unlikely to see. I HIGHLY recommend hiring John Rafferty.

I went to see John at his office and laid out an hours worth of details. John was a very good listener and quick to comprehend. John wrote up a multi-point action plan that was a tailor made to achieve the desired result. I gave John a retainer and we got started. With another meeting, some emails a...nd some phone calls and research we realized that now was not the time to proceed, that a better time would likely present itself in the coming year or so. John was very fair about the time he spent and seemed keen on keeping things very comfortable for me to come back in the future and for me to send referrals as he builds a reputation for being a highly responsive, intuitive and equitable attorney.

I retained John Rafferty after being denied health insurance from a policy I purchased. It was me against a 11.2 billion dollar insurance behemoth until John came on board. I worked in the legal industry years ago at one of the world's biggest firms and again at a large local law firm. Having exposu...re to many attorneys in my vocation, with Mr. Rafferty, I experienced unparalleled legal representation. John was cordial; an excellent listener; extremely goal oriented , detail oriented and available at a moment's notice. His work style meshed with mine and we worked as a team to pursue our goal. He allowed for my input and ideas and respected my contribution which allowed me to feel I was less of a victim and now protected by a strong legal team against a behemoth. John's work product was excellent. His instincts excellent. He was gracious in his persistence and always respectful of adversaries to ensure cooperation versus creating a chasm and more legal red tape. He was stellar from the start. I advised John and his firm PRIOR to him winning my case he was excellent and a pleasure to work with. John believed in me, my case and relentlessly pursued justice. In his representation, he is passionate about his work. He deserves the highest accolades for his work. I asked him early on to be my attorney for all matters. Regardless of the outcome, I would have offered Mr. Rafferty the highest endorsement, however, it so happens , as previously mentioned, he won a case rarely won and had a denial of medical insurance overturned . I will now be covered as per my contract in a complete reversal of a denied claim. I would recommend him to my friends and family and business associates. He is a man of great character . I have had an excellent relationship working with Mr Rafferty and my husband and I are confident to be represented by him in the future should a need arise.

John Rafferty was recommended to me by another attorney for his expertise in the type of civil case in which I was was involved. Before we agreed on his representing me, we discussed our respective responsibilities, possible outcomes, potential issues, and fee structures. I found John to be ...courteous, respectful, and refreshingly direct. All actions and documents were discussed in advance and there were no surprises. Most impressive were his excellent and timely communications, and the background research and resulting useful information that resulted. Resolution of the case was reached sooner than I expected and exceeded my expectations. To be honest, this is only the second civil attorney I have been involved with, but dealing with John Rafferty has been a new and completely satisfactory experience. He is a credit to his profession, and I can think of nothing in the case that could or should have been handled any differently. Thanks, John!
