Posted by anonymous | December 23, 2014 | Wrongful Death

A very professional attorney

I hired Mr Rispoli to handle a nursing home wrongful death case involving my mother. He was very knowlegable of the law in this area and process. He always kept me informed in advance of any future litigation and what to expect, working with Fred for me was very much stress free. Because of Freds ...knowledge and expertice in this area of law he was able to get a favorable resolution for me. I would highly recommend Mr Fred Rispoli to anyone looking for a lawyer you can trust.

Nursing home abuse and neglect lawyer | Apr 22

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Elder abuse and neglect cases are factually and legally complex. This area of practice demands a keen understanding of the nursing home industry, its regulations, as well as medical issues that are unique to our elderly population. Fred understands the industry charged with protecting our elderly population as well as the medicine – he does an excellent job for his clients. If a potential client, or their family, comes to see me and I cannot accept the case due to a conflict, or my current active case load, I highly recommend Fred and his firm."
