In personal injury cases, the victim is always at a disadvantage. Not only must they struggle through the aftermath of their injury, but they are forced to battle with large insurance carriers and corporations when seeking justice for what happened. With armies of adjustors, defense lawyers, and an unlimited war chest, they use their size and power to intimidate and mislead.

At DelVecchio & Miller, we level the playing field, providing a powerful voice on behalf of our injured clients and their families. While I can’t take back the injury that you suffered, I will do everything in my power to ensure that those responsible are held accountable.

Having well-informed clients is the core principle of my practice. This simple yet underutilized concept is critical in reaching a successful outcome in any personal injury case. From the time you first retain our firm until your case has concluded, I will make sure you are always up-to-date and prepared for the next step in the process. Most importantly, my clients know that I will be available when they have a question, need guidance, or just want to discuss the status of their case.

If you think all personal injury law firms operate the same way, think again. Many firms focus on advertising as the key component of their practice. These firms treat personal injury cases more like a manufacturing assembly line than a collaboration between a client and their lawyer.

At our firm, we take a different approach to handling personal injury cases. We believe that the best way to practice is by doing great legal work and developing strong, personal connections with our clients and their families, one case at a time. Our focus is on our current clients, not the never-ending search for new ones through relentless advertising.

If you’ve been injured in an accident, give us a call to discuss your potential case. You’ll quickly understand why we say “We’re Different” than other personal injury firms and why that is such a benefit to our clients.
