Insurance companies & attorneys

Jim Pagano had consulted with me about my case. He gave me great advice, which I followed extensively. I had never delt with Med Pay from my own insurance company before. This is when your insurance company is supposed to pay your medical bills. My insurance company were reluctant at first, but finna...ly started to pay off my medical bills months later (Thanks to Mr Pagano's advice). I would say if you are unsure about speaking to any insurance company (And you should be), you need to contact an honest attorney like Mr Pagano. Thanks again Mr Pagano, for your kind thoughts and excellent attorney advice.

Thank you, Jim

A woman ran a red light and hit the driver's side of my car. I don't believe in suing and and when her claims adjustor contacted me (sounding very concerned and nice) I thought I could work through him to resolve my medical bills. Several months before my claim was set to expire, I realized the claim...s adjustor did not have my interest in mind at all. A friend gave me Jim Pagano's name and number. There was no time left to file a lawsuit but Jim gave me advice on how to best resolve the settlement myself. He spoke with me three times and refused to take any money for his time. I can't recommend him enough. I hope none of my friends or relatives ever need an attorney but if they do I would strongly urge them not to go it alone but to call a reputable attorney immediately. I'd give them Jim's number....not only is he trustworthy and knowledgeable but he genuinely cares.

Review of James Lawrence Pagano

I was interested in finding an attorney who would be fair (not aggressive), knowledgeable, professional, and responsive. Mr. Pagano has all these qualities and was always available to respond to questions, was able to provide me with information that would assist me in making decisions as my case pr...oceeded, and was realistic and knowledgeable regarding process, the law, and possible outcomes and their ramifications. He made the stages involved in my case easy to understand and was a true advocate for a good outcome and for fairness to both sides involved. I am most grateful for his efforts, and for the efforts of his team, as they demonstrated professionalism, kindness, and thoroughness throughout the long process.

Exceptional lawyer who truly cares

Mr. Pagano is an exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled attorney who is the best at what he does. Mr. Pagano puts his client's interests at the forefront and truly cares about how the outcome of a case will affect his client's life, rather than the money he might make off of a case. Mr. Pagano ke...eps his clients well-informed and explains things in simple and clear language, and he fights hard for his clients every step of the way. If you need an attorney to fight for and protect your interests, I would strongly recommend Mr. Pagano.

A top notch trustworthy lawyer!

I was injured in an automobile accident in 2007 and the case was settled in 2013. James Pagano was one of the lawyers that represented me during this ordeal. This was a lengthy process from injury to settlement, I had many questions and concerns. James Pagano made sure my questions were answered a...nd my concerns were alleviated. As I had no experience in the area of lawsuits I relied heavily on James Pagano. Mr. Pagano returned my trust tenfold. Mr. Pagano helped me win a fair settlement with multiple insurance companies. I cannot thank James Pagano enough for his hard work and diligence. Anyone needing legal help would be hard pressed to find a better attorney than James Pagano.
