Professional and skilled attorney
Jeff Thayer was a top-notch professional as he guided our legal process. His experience was apparent from my very first meeting. He explained the process and law in detail and answered all of my questions with regard to my case. No deadlines were missed. Ultimately, he negotiated a settlement to the case which was the best possible outcome.

Top-notch Service
Jeff was very straight forward and did an excellent job explaining our case and all options available to us. He did everything exactly the way he said he would - there were no surprises. I felt he was very thorough and covered all his bases which made us feel like he truly had our backs. We honestly did not have to worry about doing battle with the insurance companies that gave us an incredible feeling of relief. Plus, Jeff is genuine and friendly. I highly recommend his services!

Love my attorney!
I was overwhelmed by the hospital bills piling up and my auto and health insurance not cooperating with each other. I was involved in a 3 car accident with no fault on my behalf. My doctor Dr Blair suggested that I should seek out representation to assist me in my dealings with both of the insurance companies involved. He suggested Gatti & Gatti as respected individuals that would have my best interest at heart. After enduring numerous phone calls at home and at work from health care collection offices, Jeff Thayer my wonderful attorney got them stopped! What a relief! The whole process was very involved and actually took over 2 years to get to our final resolution. But then Jeff took it UP A NOTCH!!!! Yes he went the extra mile and found a loophole that existed that allowed us to get an extra benefit from my own insurance policy! I didn't even know that we had the opportunity for this benefit! Without mentioning $$$ amounts, I must say it was substantial! An added bonus to what had been a very long road to recovery! I'm incredibly thankful to Mr Thayer! Even though I'm never going to be at the same place I was before the accident, I feel that at the very least I was represented by the best attorney on the planet! Jeff's assistant Ashley is also an asset! Always pleasant and helpful! I would never hesitate to recommend Jeff Thayer to anyone and everyone who may need assistance!
