Had a heat stroke in August 2021 and it completely changed my life for the worst. Unfortunately I was not receiving the medical care or attention I needed at the time so I had to retain an attorney,....once I did, things changed immediately. Thomas and his crew were on it from the start. They sent me to medical professionals that were able to actually help me. Teresa was my medical coordinator and ALWAYS got right back to me via text or by phone with any questions or concerns I had.....She is awesome!!! The entire staff was amazing. The process was long but in the end I was happy with the result and I would definitely recommend Thomas and his firm to anyone injured on the job. Thanks again.

Work Comp is a nightmare! Mr. DeBenedetto took my case and even though it takes years to settle, he walked me through what to expect and even when I was frustrated with the amount of time it took, he never gave up. He worked relentlessly for me against a formidable defense, with success! Thank you and all your staff and associates!

A friend recommended me to Thomas back in 2013 at the time I was looking for a workmen compensation Attorney. I made an appointment with his office explained my case and he accepted it, Thomas & his entire staff was very professional in every aspect of my case. Took a little longer than I anticipated but they kept me informed and asked me to be patient and I'm glad I was. If you're looking for a workmen compensation Attorney I highly recommend the (LAW OFFICE OF THOMAS DEBENEDETTO) you will not be sorry. Thanks Tom & Don Kelley.

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.

I just want to give a big thank you to everyone that worked on my case! I had filed back in 2020 right before the pandemic hit. Called several different places and was told many times I didn't have much of a case, some flat out turned me down and said I had no case. Thank you guys for taking my case and helping me see it through till the end. Big shout out to Erin; who kept in touch with me throughout the whole process! I highly recommend.

There are no words for what this law firm has done for me. In an impossible situation they provided me invaluable care. No matter the situation they fought for me, and saved my life in the process. I can't say it enough Mr. DeBenidetto is one of the reasons I am still here. Their team not only sought medical professionals who understood my needs but stopped the insurance companies from denying me their care. I am beyond grateful and feel blessed I was represented by them.

I had been dealing with my 3rd work comp case and had never gone to a lawyer before. I have really bad anxiety, Micheal was very nice and calming. I am very grateful for the settlement we were able to come to and I felt like I was in good hands. I would definitely recommend their law office for your work comp case.

I have to admit that this entire law firm was amazing and did a great job representing me and my best interest at all times. Michael Yap was very professional as well as very aggressive when needed to be. I was comfortable from day one with Mr. Yap and the entire team at the law firm. I highly recommend Mr. Yap and the entire Firm to anybody looking for a workers compensation attorney. They are honest, integral, and very ethical in all that they do.

For 30 years this office has represented me with an open WC case for lifetime medical treatment. Every time i needed something they were there for me, long after their compensation ended with the original pay out. Then, they fought for me again, 30 years later, to close the case and obtained another settlement going against one of the largest companies in the country. Well done. Thank you for working so hard for all that is right and just. I know you will be in good hands during a very difficult time, if you select this law office.

Mr DeBenedetto is AWESOME!!! My workers comp claim was originally denied. So I decided to hire a lawyer and found Mr. DeBenedetto. He works on contingency, meaning if you don't win - you don't pay. So I had nothing to lose. He referred me to the best doctors for my injury and was able to win me a large settlement without me even having to see a judge. My biggest mistake and regret was not hiring him before I reported my injury. It would have saved me months of being broke and quack doctor visits.

Thomas and his staff were great, hiring him as my attorney was the best decision I could've made in my situation! He got me the best care from the best doctors and was able to settle my case exceeding my expectations!! I would absolutely encourage anyone who is in need of a WC attorney to contact his office!!!

I got injured at work and went through workerscomp. After a year of doing everything they requested of me and continuing to be in pain they told me they refused my surgery. The next day I hire Mr Debenedetto and I am glad I did. They told me to stop seeing the workercomp dr and sent me to someone who actually cared. This Dr listen to me and understood my pain. for the first time in over a year I was actually being heard. After seeing this Dr twice I was scheduled for surgery. i Reached out to my legal team multiple times. They were always helpful and understanding. I appreciate Bianca. She really helped me with all my questions. It was definitely a long journey but I was happy to have them in my corner. i Definitely would recommend them to anyone who is dealing with a workercomp claim!!! I would also say don't try and do it alone. Hire an attorney. Had I done that in the begin I don't believe I would be permanently disabled. I am so thankful for the people who helped me fight this case. I always felt like they were doing their best To make sure I was taken care of.

I contacted the Law Office of Thomas DeBenedetto and Associates. I was represented by Attorney Tony Harris for my worker's compensation claim. Attorney Harris kept me informed all the way through the process. He is an excellent attorney and will have your best interest at heart. There are not enough words to thank him for all he has done for me. If you are in need of a good attorney I highly recommend him and his law firm. Thank you Attorney Harris for helping me with my case. You are the Best!

I am so glad that I chose Thomas Debenedetto to represent me after I severely injured my back. To say that I was in dire straits is an understatement. Not only was his staff kind and professional, they made certain that I kept all my appointments. I felt like I was being treated like family. Thomas never stopped fighting for me. He saved me! My outlook on life was very bleak. But, because of Thomas and his staff my situation has changed. He found the best surgeons and Physical Therapist for me. I am proud to consider him a friend. The settlement he secured for me was more than I had expected. If you are looking for representation, I could not recommend any one better. If you are looking for hands on representation, and someone who will fight for you until success, look no further. He is your attorney. Sincerely, Rod Gaven

Please know that if you are dealing with a workers compensation situation you need representation. When things got a little to overwhelming I reached out for help. Thomas was amazing from day one. I had my husband in the hospital, no assistance from his workplace. Thomas took the time to take my call while on vacation. His staff is amazing and honestly they took a huge burden off my back. I let them take the reigns while I tended to my husband. They were amazing, they were able to overturn the initial denial we had received, kept the pressure to ensure my husband continued getting his medical needs met and were successful in obtaining a positive outcome. We are so grateful for everything. Please if you need someone to look out for your best interests and get the job done and will fight for you Thomas is the man for the job. Erin also deserves 5 stars as well, his team is amazing.
