Client Testimonials

I am not sure how such an amazing firm also be the kindest firm I’ve ever had a pleasure of hiring. Not only were they constantly keeping me updated on every and anything about the case but they also made sure I got the highest value for my injuries, all while still sending out holiday texts so that each client knows their more than a case. I absolutely recommend and if I’m ever in need of another lawyer they will be the first ones I call!

Sandra D.

I have been going through a very long, tough and stressful compensation case. But my attorney, James Duffy has been wonderful. He’s helped me through everything and always answers all my questions. He has always made time to give me peace of mind and lead me through every step.

Daniel K.

So to anyone out there who is feeling devastated by an injury and worried about their future, I 100% recommend you call “the Heavy Hitters”! James Duffy is extremely thorough, relatable and decent. From my first phone contact I was so stressed out and in pain, the paralegals took the time to listen and advise me. I could not express how having the right Law Firm as your fight and support system is the most important decision you need to make. I’m so happy I chose the best.

Delayed Injury Symptoms: What to Watch for in the Days After a Crash

Most people expect to feel pain right after a car accident, but that’s not always how the body works. The shock of a crash can flood your system with adrenaline, which temporarily masks pain. Some injuries, especially those involving your body’s soft tissue, the spine, or the brain, may not fully show up until hours, days, or even weeks later. For this reason, anyone involved in a motor vehicle accident should be cautious, monitor their health closely, and understand their rights under state law.
