Absolute Treasure!

After an accident at work in September 2012 left me permanently and fully disabled I was completely devastated and overwhelmed. Thankfully my uncle, a retired lawyer for a major firm in NYC, recommended Juliana Guerriero at the law firm of Cantrell Green. Initially we tried to just work with my emp...loyer and the workers' comp insurance company to get medical treatments so that I could recover and go back to the job that I loved but once the doctors determined the injury had caused permanent disability the insurance company said they were closing my case. I didn't know what to do, we couldn't afford the medical treatments, surgeries and physical therapy I was going to require for the rest of my life. Juliana has been an amazing advocate and relentless in her pursuit for a fair settlement. My husband and I ended up having to sell our house in California and move to the East Coast where my family is located so that we could have help and support with my care. Dealing with Social Security Disability, Long Term Disability and an out of state Workers' comp case has been extremely challenging but I am so grateful to have Juliana in my corner. She is compassionate, dedicated, knowledgable and honest. She is always available to explain anything I don't understand, she responds in a timely manner to all communication and is very patient. It's been over eight years since the accident and we've been in litigation almost seven years, Juliana is still fighting for me and I am so appreciative for all her hard work on my behalf. I highly recommend Juliana Guerriero to anyone who finds themselves in the confusing and difficult workers' comp system.

Current Client - Hired Juliana for Workers Comp Case

Juliana is currently representing (we hired her and her firm) my family on a workers compensation case. We are currently in the middle of the case, but thus far Juliana has proven to be incredibly thorough with her advice as it relates to the ambiguous workers compensation policies, procedures, and p...rocesses. She has, thus far, guided us through the thousands of pages of legal jargon that my family had a hard time keeping up with. Juliana did it in a simple, easy to understand, way so as to not waste our time. So far, we are happy that we hired her.

She's an Amazing Attorney!

Ms. Guerriero handled my case with a superb knowledge of the law and unparalleled professionalism. My case was old when I brought it to her, and she got right to work on it and explained everything. In a sense, she repaired it. She negotiated it to a satisfactory conclusion. I am really happy I c...hose her. I highly recommend her legal services. :)

Worker's Comp Litigation

I actually had two separate lawyers that I worked with from Cantrell Green, Julian Guerriero for my Worker's Comp case and Anna Batanero for my Social Security Disability case. Juliana was recommended to me by a friend and I was so incredibly glad that I hired her. Juliana spent a good 5 ...years of hard work to get a very positive resolution to my case, which started when my employer did not file the requisite paperwork with the State of California. Juliana has a Master comprehension of the law, down to the minutiae of the obscure components of federal and state law. And 6 years later, she went to bat for me handling the retraining voucher that I was due which the employer's insurance attorney refused to honor, winning for me the maximum I deserved. I cannot give enough positive accolades about Juliana and her staff. They listened, kept me apprised of all aspects of my case, and treated me with incredible care, compassion and respect. If you want an honest appraisal of your case, and a positive outcome I strongly suggest retaining Juliana Guerriero as your attorney.

Experienced and Kind

It was my good fortune when I was referred to Ms. Guerriero by a friend, who is a local attorney. At my first meeting with Ms. Guerriero, she listened, took notes, asked questions and I was relieved when she said she could help me. Naturally, going up against your employer is frightening, yet I fel...t protected knowing Juliana had my back. I never ever felt I was in the dark about my on-going Workers' Comp. case. I received emails, mailed updates, phone calls, and face-to-face meetings in Ms. Guerriero's office regarding my claim. She has been so very helpful and has guided me to a very successful end to a two year claim. She never dropped the ball and was on top of things from the beginning. I have referred people I know to Ms. Guerriero and they have told me how impressed they are with her knowledge, compassion, and how relieved they are knowing Juliana is working so skillfully on their behalf. Thank you Ms. Guerriero and staff for all your help and support during this WC medical claim! I was able to focus on my health and not worry about the legal stuff because I knew you were on top of that.
