Compassionate and got the job done

After being in car accident that left me injured and eventually needing surgery as a result of that accident, I knew I was going to need counsel. I was very concerned about the long term effects I could be facing. From day one, Valente law firm were incredible, they handled everything, making me feel... like I just wasn’t a client, they treated me with genuine care and concern. They went above and beyond always checking on me, keeping me updated, and making sure I was ok throughout this process. They worked this case until I was granted everything they fought for, I couldn’t say enough about working with Phil and Leila, they both were amazing. I highly recommend them if you are ever in the unfortunate position of being in an accident, I can assure you, they are who you want to be in your corner.

Excellent Job Valente Law !

Phil did an excellent job getting the insurance companies to pay up. I honestly thought it was a lost cause, but Phil and Leila's expertise, perseverance and understanding of how insurance companies work made a HUGE difference. They are incredible to work with with excellent communication skills and ...bedside manner that is second to none. Thanks Phil & Leila, i am so relieved and appreciative!

A Master Litigator Who Brings Clarity and Peace

If there were 6 stars available, I would give 10! I had a complex litigation case that required extra work and attention, and he handled it with incredible expertise. Not only did we win the case without any concessions, but his personalized approach made all the difference. Unlike big law firms that... lump cases together in a conveyor-belt style, he tailored a strategy specifically for my situation and kept me informed every step of the way. If you want someone who truly cares and delivers results, he’s the one to call!

The Very Best!

Phil has a no-nonsense personality, that is why I love him. He does not play when it comes to his job. He turned my bad luck into good luck. He and his team swiftly handled my case against a dealership with ease. Their dedication and expertise ensured a successful outcome, holding the dealership ac...countable for their poor business practices. I am very happy with the outcome. Highly recommend!
