also known as Bob Pretto
I have been a trial lawyer focusing on personal injury and workers compensation cases since the day I left law school back in 1986. Although it is the goal to successfully resolve claims through settlement and mediation, some cases cannot be resolved so easily and litigation is necessary. Clients who find themselves in litigation need a strong and experienced hand to go to court with confidence in the process and the outcome.
Although the bulk of my practice centers around motor vehicle accidents, I have successfully handled accident cases of many types involving boats, dog bites/attacks, slip, trip and fall cases, agricultural equipment, shootings, defective products and catastrophic construction failures. Too many of these cases have involved fatalities and permanent injury and we strive to achieve justice while maintaining dignity and privacy for our clients.
As for the Workers Compensation arena, our goal is to ensure that clients are provided all the benefits to which they are entitled without alienating the employer. Like the healing of the injury, the worker's compensation process can be painful and it always takes longer than you think. Patience, perseverance and professionalism are what we will provide.

Great lawyer for the everyday person
I had a not so easy case for an accident. I struggled to find a lawyer to even look at the case seriously but Robert stood up to the challenge. He put in a lot of hard work and actually went to bat for me without knowing if we would win. His hard work paid ofd when we ended up coming out the victor...

Motor vehicle accident
Following a motor vehicle accident, Attorney Robert Pretto was just the person we needed to negotiate with the insurance agencies.

Legal guidance following traffic accident
Unlike much of Mr. Pretto's work, members of my family engaged him for guidance following an auto accident in which my family member was the driver who caused the accident. I am writing the review because I was the primary contact between Mr. Pretto and my family member, as my family requested. He...

Hiring Robert Pretto was the best thing l could have done!!
I was involved in an automobile accident 8months pregnant. Thankfully my unborn child was not harmed, l however experienced a moderate injury that I may have to deal with for years to come. I hate to sound like a commercial here but the amount the insurance company offered me was so low and insulting...
"Atty. Pretto is a diligent and responsive advocate. Although our clients disagreed about the merits a particular case, because of the way Atty. Pretto approached the litigation we were able to reach a good result for both sides."
"I practiced both plaintiff and defense personal injury law for over a decade, and Bob has always impressed me as a smart and hard-working lawyer who will use both novel and tried-and-true methods to win fair compensation for his injured clients."
