Automobile accident

I hired Mr. Andreano on a recommendation from a friend at the police department. Frank was very invested in settling my case and was always available for me when I had any questions or concerns about the case. Although it took longer for the settlement to occur than I expected Frank was able to obtai...n the full amount of the policy in settlement. I would strongly recommend Frank Andreano as your attorney.

Frank is the attorney to have at your side

My family would highly recommend Attorney Frank Andreano. Mr. Andreano represented my son in a complicated auto accident and settlement process. My son was involved in a very serious car accident as a passenger in his own car. The person he allowed to drive his car drove recklessly, resulting in the... death of 2 passengers and my son’s serious injuries. My son required long term care and his insurance bills totaled over $1 million dollars. Mr. Andreano did an amazing job representing not only my son’s best interests, but also in dealing with the deceased families. It was important to us that any lawyer representing my son understood the enormity of the situation and interacted with the deceased families respectfully as to not cause any additional pain. From the initial meeting until the end of the case, his concern has always been my son’s health and wellbeing - each conversation started with him asking how my son was doing. My family is very grateful for all of his hard work, professionalism and aggressive representation with the insurance companies. He was able to negotiate a fair settlement for the accident and worked with our health insurance carrier to help resolve the claims outstanding. Our experience with our health insurance provider made the whole situation worse, and we would not have been able to handle any of it without his representation. He dealt with the insurance companies which allowed us to concentrate on helping to get my son better. He was always available to answer all of our questions and at all times and was knowledgeable about the process. If you want a lawyer who is passionate, knowledgeable and really cares about your well-being, Frank Andreano is the attorney for you.
