I had a wonderful experience with Thomas Debenedetto and the firm. They listen to my case explain everything line by line. The firm always made sure they answered each and everyone of my questions and/or concerns. I never had to call the office for anything. The firm kept me up to date with each filing, motion and/or any paperwork that was sent out. I work with wonderful doctors. I felt very comfortable. I love how the firm always kept the lines of communication open at all times. Micheal, Monica, Jerome and Erin were so great to me. I can't thank them enough for all their hard work. I will definitely recommended them to anyone who needs a wonderful firm on their case. Thank you very much to you all.

Very competent people to deal with. Very happy with the way I was treated along the way to my final settlement. A heads up to anybody looking to get a lawyer. Just because you get a lawyer it is not going to make your injury better right away and you are still going to have to go through the steps of the system. I took my case on for two years before I retained this office, what I found most helpful by getting a workers compensation lawyer was the stress of having to deal with doctors who were not advocating for me and most of all having to deal with the insurance company all went away.

Came to this office with a workers compensation problem and was immediately treated with respect, compassion, and consideration. My attorney, Michael Yap, was amazing from day one. He was understanding, outgoing, very professional and aggressive when needed. He handled everything from the very first time we met. He and the entire firm treated me as if I was their only client and always made time for my questions and calls. Mr. Yap always returned calls and emails in 24 hour or less and reached out whenever there was any update in my case. I highly recommend Mr. Yap and this law firm to anybody looking for a workers compensation attorney.

I used Tom and his team in 2016 and I had a great experience with the staff. I was called about 6 weeks after signing up to schedule my Dr. appt. I called the office about 2 times with questions on my case and the office was very responsive and answered my questions. They are a busy office and for me thats great to hear since it means they are working and have a large client base. I was able to meet Mr. DeBenedetto when I came in to sign my documents to close & settle my case. He was very nice and went threw the documents with me and explained what everything meant. I was Happy with with my settlement and how fast the process was. I would recomend him and his team to anyone looking for a workers comp attorney.
