Excellent Representation

My wife had the unfortunate experience of sustaining an injury that required us to retain counsel. I called several law firms in the East Bay, and none would take our case. I was referred by one of those firms to Fulvio Picerno. Fulvio was amazing!!! He was very thorough, professional, and compassion...ate. He did a great job resolving the case for my wife, and we both would highly recommend Fulvio for your Personal Injury case, should you ever need an amazing attorney to represent you!!

Comforting & Professional.

After being hit by a car, I found myself in a hospital bed with most of my right side broken. I was lost, scared, and desperately looking for a personal injury lawyer. When my partner found Mr. Picerno, it was truly a blessing. Not only was he attentive and sympathetic to my accident, but he was prec...ise and professional. He made me feel at ease with him and with my current situation. Over the next year, Mr. Picerno stayed in constant communication with me, explained every detail of my case with me and the different option I had. I personally felt that he cared about my case and me as a person. In the end, Mr. Picerno never put himself or money first. He worked overtime to get me every penny I was owed while maintaining and comforting and professional attitude.

Giving Thanks

I did not like lawyers. Did everything to avoid them. But, I found one I was able to trust, respect, laugh with, and know he wasn't working super hard just on my case but he does it for all his clients. He responds quickly both by email and phone. He listened that the people I was dealing with on the... other side of the table are my friends. They are important to me, and I did not want to add stress into their life. Yes, friends on the other side. He advised me so I went into the depo prepared and honest. When I was frustrated he listened and he fought hard for me to the insurance company on the other side. If you want to be heard, have someone listen, know he will keep you updated and be fair I recommend this lawyer. Me, the person who did not trust lawyers trusts Fulvio Picerno completely. The lawyer that listened and heard just how his client hoped it would turn out because we are dealing with my friends. You? You will trust him and know he will give 110% of himself.

Genuine -Honest assessment - Real integrity - practices in your best interest

My situation was quite complicated as i had contacted Fulvio a little late in my situation. I was in motor vehicle accident where I was injured in a fairly high speed rear end collision while driving a work vehicle while I was stoppped . (no fault of my own). One of my major injuries affected my cog...nitive abilities to think clearly and comprehend what I might read or understand conversations clearly and in conjunction with my memory operating at a very minimal level. I had required medical care before Fulvio was involved and I was just kicked down the road and deemed incorreclty cured by the insurance companies doctors. I was so discouraged and was unsure if I would be able to retain my job or even be able to function with my family which ended up a very dark time for me. I was so greatful the extra time he took to explain everything and make sure I understood what he was saying and emailing me the discussion notes so my wife could review it with me too. I contacted several attorneys before finding Fulvio . In my opinion the “other”attorneys main concern was the money grab and not helping me get appropriate medical care as the primary objective. In my opinion Fulvio was concerned about getting my medical care handled first . That resonated with me and I consequently hired Fulvio. As soon as he was involved and the insurance companies were notified I began to get additional treatment that would help me function and consequently teach me new tools to cope with my injuries. Furthermore one of my big concerns was not signing my future medical coverage away. Fulvio was able to get an agreement for future medical and get a financial award which was beyond any thing I would of imagined . I can honestly say that Fulvio always had what was in the best interest of myself and family first. I don’t believe you can say this about many attorneys but beyond a shadow of doubt Fulvio moral compas guides him down the path of integrity honesty genuiness. If you looking for legal council with a strong moral compass, someone who will telll you straight what he thinks you will not be disappointed choosing Fulvio. Dan

The best in the Bay

My claim was scary but the second I took Fulvio onboard, he assured me that I had no reason to be scared and he was correct! A true professional with the right amount of experience--I don't regret having him as my advocate. A tremendously competent and knowledgable attorney with a warm personality wh...ich is different from other lawyers I have dealt with in the past. He always replied to my e-mails in a prompt and timely manner and made no decisions on my case without consulting me. I was never in the dark about anything and he helped me navigate the legal system while getting me the maximum amount of compensation that I was able to get. Thank you, Fulvio, I am forever grateful to have a lawyer and most importantly, a friend in you.
