Got Justice for My Son in Dog Attack Case

I hired Argento & Battista, LLC to represent my son for a claim against a neighbor when their dog viciously attacked my son when he was playing outside. I worked primarily with attorneys Catherine D. Battista and Brandon Raney. They handled my case professionally and competently. I would recommend... them to represent anyone who has been the victim of an animal attack.

Compassionate Nursing Home Advocacy

Our family hired nursing home rights attorney, Cat Battista, after our grandmother experienced a fall at her nursing home. Cat and her office not only assisted us with getting grandma transferred to a new nursing home, but also helped us to obtain a settlement from the nursing home to compensate gra...ndma for her injuries. Her office gave us a personal experience by being available to answer all of our questions. Cat would even come to visit grandma at the nursing home to make sure that she was doing all right. If you need a nursing home rights attorney, our family highly recommends Cat Battista.

Obtained Justice against Cook County Police Department

Attorney Catherine D. Battista represented me in my personal injury claim against the Village of Westchester Police Department after one of its police officers caused a collision with the car we were driving. Her office kept us well informed about the status of our lawsuit. She was able to recover ...money in a settlement on our behalf against the police department and the officer who hit us.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
