In about 1996, I inured my arm in a jetway, (what you walk through to board an aircraft) filed a…read morereport with workers comp. I had surgery on my right arm and retained an attorney to protect myself. I transferred to Orlando, FL. I received notice that I needed to appear in court in N.Y. for a hearing. I appeared and say for about 2 hours. My attorney at the time, Loretta Samenga was aware of my presence. After the long wait, I was advised I had no case due lack of med. reports. My "lawyer" never made a call to me to advise, nor did she attempt to get the info. Ducks were not in a row. Being ignorant of WC law, I went back to FL minus compensation and a lot of time spent; exhausted vacay time, OT, etc. Well, I discovered cases can be reopened! I retained "attorney" Matthew Travaglia with a new hope. Received a hearing notice after awhile and went to court Where again I waited for 1-2 hours. Guess what!!? Travaglia didn't prepare for the case as WC had no reports, despite Me calling ahead and being told we were good to go. We were not. On both occasions, my so called attorneys SAW ME sitting there and neither had the courtesy to tell me to just go home. Same ga just walked out before I could have a discussion with her, saying they needed your med report, as if it were my fault! I thought that having the case prepped, the attorney would generate some phone calls to get what they needed. WRONG! When I saw that Same gs was disbarred, I breathed a sigh of relief! Aha! They saw her incompetence! Wrong again. She was reinstated. Part 2. Several years later, my son was injured at work, required surgery and his right hand "locks" on occasion and his hand is partially paralyzed. He retained Andrew Vecere, MY INCOMPETENT ATTORNEYS PARTNER!!! I cannot tell you how many emails, phone calls and texts went unanswered. Not to mention that he Did NOT receive any pay for over a year. He was told that add'l. paperwork was needed from the surgeon. Isn't that part of their job? My son made several trips to Dr.s office to comply with the attys. request. It was only after not hearing from the atty. And not getting paid that he would call Kendra, their receptionist. My son was quoted what his case was worth, as his hand was not going to improve. Guess what? He got less than 10% than what was quoted initially as to the value of the case. These "attys." are not interested in justice or even returning phone calls or hiring competent people. At one point the receptionist was upset bc my son was angry. I'd like to see how SHE'D React to no paycheck in over a year. Two of us had to live on my Income, which was not enough to support 2 people. God forbid you need an attorney, but if you do, Vecere and Vataglia put my son and myself in financial distress. Not once, but TWICE. Had I known my atty. was a partner with Vecere, I would have advised my son that they are more like attys. who practice (which is something they need) as a sideline. Other attys. That I know were so upset that we used them....attys. Know what they are. Ever heard the word "Shyster"? Look it up and you will see their pictures. DO NOT, REPEAT DO NOT, ever retain Vecere or Vataglia. NEVER. You don't want to be almost for Ed into bankruptcy or have your credit score drop bc of bills you were unable to to pay bc attys. Did not do their jobs. YOU end up doing the leg work...and I received nothing, twice. Two attys that thought it was a joke and never notified me about paperwork...I would have gotten it myself! Remember, please, my review. THEY SHOULD BE DISBARRED. I am taking this further; it's not over. Only have 1 star so I could post a review.

I suffered a severe/permanent injury to my left index finger due to faulty equipment at a gym that…read moreI had been a member of for years. I am an avid weight lifter and had been attending that same gym for 2.5 years. I chose this firm as I read that they will fight for you. This wasn't the case. Months later I hear back from the attorney who tells me the equipment wasn't faulty and insinuating that I did not know how to use the equipment. I wish this firm was smart enough to go and do a simple google review to see the numerous reviews of broken equipment, machines never being fixed and so forth. While I dealt with this, I requested information on the medical payments that I had to pay out of pocket. 2 weeks later they notify me that the insurance policy has no medical payments. Interesting considering I am an insurance agent for 10+ years and have not once in my life have I come across a policy that did not have medical payments. This firm is good for nothing. Choose someone who will follow up and actually work to assist you and will have your back! These people DO NOT!

He passed all my cases off to his Of Counsel, Jeff Basso, esq. Who is overwhelmed and weak in his representation style. He rarely speaks up to any judge or opposing counsel and accomplishes little to nothing. Unprepared, he would often email the night before detailing a next day court appearance. When I complained, Patrick McCormick started getting involved again but he was not up to date on all details and it was like having new representation. Do not be enticed by lower hourly rates than other mid sized law firms, because they more than make up for it in aggressive billing and a lot of "research and Philosophy" that requires a real looking over! Do not use!
