I thought Catalano Law was the way to go for my daughters accident. Well I guess I wrong.. I barely even speak to the attorney about the case. The other guys insurance adjuster even said he hasn't been in contact with him for weeks. It was clearly the other person's fault. Ran her half over with his jeep! Obviously he couldn't or didn't even try to get her anything for her pain and suffering. He could of at least had the courtesy to call me and tell me there is nothing he can or wants to continue with for whatever reason Instead of just not contacting me at all....not saying Catalano is a bad firm but it was for me.. Well here's part 2 of my experience with this law firm. So just finally received the settlement check and was a lot less than what i was told i was going to receive. So i called and this was what was told to me. These are extra fees for documentation that i could have gotten for him for free and im pretty sure as a lawyer he would know this. I also was told that I would get clear transpareny. I was not aware of any such fees( that again) could of been retrieved for no cost. If this was brought to my attention I would have taken care of the documentation he needed. Why would anyone want to pay an extra fee(which wasn't all that cheap) compared to what i actually received is beyond me. There is also another big reason why i should have never gone to this agency but i wont even get in to that. Ill just have be sure i don't use this firm again. Maybe they dropped off as individuals when they split up i dont know but my experience wasn't that great ... I don't like reviews but this one hit me differently.... If your needing a lawyer please sure make sure you ask about all the hidden fees.

I thought Greed! Barely ever talked to my acting attorney there & never cast my eyes on Catalano. They grab $ 50,000 of my money & forgot to give me a coffee mug! Oops! Don’t recommend them, I personally would never return.

On 12/21/2024, someone drove straight into my car and completely changed my life in an instant. The very next day, Peter Addonizio, Esq. personally reached out to me, and from that moment on, I knew I was in the right hands. Throughout multiple surgeries, months of rehabilitation, and countless doctor appointments, Mr. Addonizio fought relentlessly for my best interests. He was consistent, responsive, and never backed down. His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made an incredibly difficult time much more manageable. I truly felt supported every step of the way. I am beyond grateful for his hard work and advocacy and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney who truly goes above and beyond.

Saying I highly recommend Catalano Law says nothing about the impression they made on me.They were so attentive to all of my questions and concerns, and reassuring when I was having doubts. Peter Addonizio, Esq was my lawyer, but every other person that I met there was wonderful too, from the receptionist to Peter C. I was treated as if I was the only client they had, which I know is far from the truth. Best of all, they KNOW what they're doing, and were able to get results. I HOPE I never get hit again, but they are the only ones I would call if I did! I won't say I didn't call other law services before them - but I can tell you NONE of them would even see me. On reflection, they did me a big favor. Trust me, Catalano Law is the only one to call.

Stephen Lembo, from first phone call to settlement, went out of his way dealing with doctor offices and 2 insurance companies. Peter even called me to introduce himself after I initially spoke with Stephen. Will definitely refer Catalano Law if asked.

On January 10th 2024 at 10-11 In the morning, I was involved in a really bad car accident in victory at the caution light at the time. A vehicle with a red light on my right pulled out in front of me causing me to T-bone them at 50mph. The other vehicle and I both ended up in the hospital, me with injuries to my neck, back, right hand, And right hip. My injuries a the total loss of my vehicle put me out of work, with my injuries I had to undergo pain management and physical therapy intake, muscle relaxant, and pain medication to this day. A day or two after my accident, I start looking into lawyers to take my case, Most of them wanted me to come in and fill out paperwork, which was really difficult for me to move around after the accident. A friend of mine gave me a number for Catalano law and I gave them a call and they scheduled an appointment to come and see me to fill out paperwork. Later that week, Catalano team me up with my lawyer, Mellissa Murphy who help me out 100% through my claim. Since I have mobility troubles. A lot of our conversations were through the phone and email, I made sure to keep in touch and let her know of the situation I was in and handover any paperwork that will help her with the case. Side note, It helped that she also been through the same situation that I’ve been through the recovery, trips to the hospital, the injections She guided me through all of it. Mellisa fought hard for me to keep my job and to make sure that the insurance company paid me my loss wages. Her loyalty and her witness holds no bounds, she really kept me going and gave me good advice. As a client of Catalano Law I wouldn’t be where I am today without their help And guidance. I’m grateful and owe a huge thanks to Mellissa for not only being my lawyer and my right hand But a guardian and a friend. Catalano law The best in the business hands-down!!!. Adam.L

Catalano wins. My name is Brad and I was severely injured by a careless driver. I was in the hospital and called Catalano law. Rod came right out and I felt like I was in good hands. Peter was my attorney and if i need anything throughout the process he took care of it. It’s been an emotional and physical roller coaster since the accident and hiring this law firm was the best decision I made. Thank you Peter I’ll always remember what you did for me.

5 Stars for sure for Catalano Law. Especially Mellissa Murphy our attorney. It was a 2 year long ordeal and she and kept us informed and up to date every step of the way. My wife and I didn't think we would receive much of a settlement but she fought for us the whole way and she was able to get us much more than we thought. I strongly recommend Catalano Law!!

Response from owner

Understandably, it is hard to imagine that anyone searching for legal counsel is having the best day already. The idea of pursing a case can be difficult let alone ensuring you have the right legal team behind you can prove daunting. Finding myself in a similar situation I conducted multiple intake consultations with other firms but did not feel as assured as when I spoke with the Catalano team. Due to my event occurring in the evening hours of a Friday I reached out presuming not to hear from anyone until Monday. I was reassured by the immediate 24/7 support and compassion from the intake rep. While recounting difficult details I felt heard and respected. Details were compiled and I soon met with Dominic whose candor and attention to detail would prove to make this ordeal painless beyond what I was already enduring. Dominic’s honesty and advisement are invaluable. I initially informed him I was undecided and would need to weigh my options. Dominic was patient and wished me luck with my decision. Of all the law firms I spoke with, Dominic was the only one to warn me of puffery. It was not long after this I conclusively knew Catalano Law had my best interest at heart and would provide the best representation. As the case moved forward I met with their investigators, spoke with my attorney, Dominic, and discussed our strategy. At no point did I feel decisions were being made for me, rather with me. The team was incredibly approachable and there were no “dumb questions” as at no point did I feel spoken down to. The firm was respectful of my wishes and input regarding the evidence and how I sought to proceed. Whenever a road lock appeared, Dominic was quick to keep me updated and aware of what our options were. Throughout my cases entirety, I felt I was apart of the whole process. While I wish I met the members of the Catalano team under better circumstances, I am beyond thankful I was able to work with them. TLDR: For anyone with a personal injury case who may be on the fence of how to move forward, this firm is here to help you. Even though my case was based in Troy, NY communication was clear and consistent. It’s easy to throw high numbers out when discussing potential settlements. The team at Catalano Law has your best interest in mind and will represent you accordingly.
