Good to have Robert on our side

Robert was a great advocate for my family during a very difficult time last year. At the time, I was living at a rental property where my mom sustained serious injuries because of a faulty railing. We contacted the CaseyGerry Firm and Robert was on the scene the next morning, jumping right in to hand...le all communications with my landlord and his insurance agents. He was a strong leader throughout the entire case, always advocating strongly for my family, and helping us reach a settlement agreement with my landlord that my family is very happy with. I highly recommend Robert to anyone who needs legal support during a personal injury crisis.

Kind and professional.

We had to go through a very stressful legal process and Robert helped us in a very kind and understanding manner. He treated us with the utmost respect and dignity not like some businesses that are mainly in it for monetary gain. We are very satisfied and are very grateful we chose Robert to represen...t us.

I recommend him without hesitation.

I retained Robert Francavilla from Casey Gerry after I was hit by an elderly lady who ran a red light, resulting in the amputation of my left foot. Robert and his staff provided outstanding representation in our case; he was well versed in liability law and gave us a realistic and ultimately very acc...urate assessment of where we stood and how the case was likely to play out. He was able to negotiate a substantial settlement for me and my family, and also represented me effectively against other parties who appeared on the scene at various points, which ultimately made a big difference in the final outcome. Robert is an extremely nice guy who obviously sees his work as his personal mission in life; he acts in good faith at all times and genuinely wants to see an outcome that is fair to all parties, which I think gives him a reputation that makes him all the more effective as a negotiator. I recommend him without hesitation.

The BEST EXPERIENCED Lawyer who treats clients with respect and compassion

Robert was professional, well-spoken, communicative, and very compassionate throughout the whole case and went above and beyond to ensure that I was taken care of at all times. My case was very complex but I was never concerned over the potential outcome because of Robert’s track record and how thoro...ugh, professional, and communicative he was to me. The resolution from my case gave me a new hope on life and to never give up despite the odds, and for that alone I am very thankful that Robert was able to represent me.

Skill and Diligence

After I experienced a serious fall with medical complications, I was fortunate to be referred to Robert Francavilla to consider legal action. His professionalism and knowledge of the law were impressive from the start. The research done on my case was extremely thorough, and with Robert’s skill and... diligence, the result was a remarkable award through mediation. I can highly recommend Robert and his team at Casey Gerry.
