Remarkable!

Teresa was amazing when it came down to my situation. I was involved in a horrible car accident where my car was totaled by another car & I was T-boned (hit right into my driver's side). This resulted in some bad injuries, and I didn't know where to go or what to do. I didn't even consider a lawyer a...t first, but everything started becoming more difficult and I had to leave my job because of it. Teresa referred me to helpful doctors that helped me with physical therapy and home remedies when I did not have health insurance too. My mom referred me to Teresa, whom had a good experience with her previously, and I decided to reach out to her. She made everything so much easier, less stressful, and pulled me back out of my whole of depression. I felt like everything was just caving down on me with nobody there to help, and Teresa was the one that came and helped me throughout this entire situation. I am very happy to have worked with such a great lawyer, who in the end, provided me with a mind much more at ease & less stressed, along with an exceptional settlement negotiation. very thankful for everything you have done & would definitely recommend for anyone dealing with a car accident injury of any sort. Thanks!

Lawyer for the people

Teresa handled my car accident where I had to sue my own insurance company. Not only did she get the maximum return on my uninsured motorist coverage, she got the VA hospital to cut my medical cost in half, making me twice as much money as expected. I have referred numerous people to Teresa and her f...irm and all were very pleased with their professionalism and attention to detail. Teresa cares about her clients, steers them in the right direction and will not take advantage of you. I found Teresa to be upfront and honest, traits not always associated with lawyers.

Execellent Representation

I would like to express to Teresa my sincere gratitude for accepting my case (divorce issue). Before contacting Teresa, I found myself overwhelmed and pressed for time. In the very short timeline we were facing, Teresa filed the required documents without error. Throughout the process, Teresa was... straight forward and provided accurate direction as to what factors would be involved and the plausible outcome. I am pleased to say that Teresa championed my case; a court decision in my favor. The only things Teresa asked from me was my honesty and patience. In addition to Teresa’s outstanding legal assistance, I find her to be a pleasant, compassionate and understanding individual. I also had the pleasure interacting with members of her office staff. I found her staff to be very efficient, pleasant and professional. I highly recommend Teresa Trucchi, Attorney at Law.
