For the past 25 years, John has dedicated his career to representing people who have been injured. John is a graduate of the University of Rhode Island ('89) and Albany Law School ('95). Between college and law school, John worked as a liability claims adjuster for a national insurance company.
During his time handling claims, John realized that the liability insurance system was not designed to treat fairly the people who were injured through no fault of their own.He has spent his entire legal career advocating on behalf of injured people and helping them get their lives back on track. John DiBartolo represented me after being hit by a car and was an incredible and reliable lawyer from start to finish.

Services
Every personal injury case is different. Every client is different. The impact that each client's injuries have upon his or her life is different. We do more than explain the law. We listen to our clients. We learn about and address their concerns. Our clients can then focus on recovering from their injuries while we focus on the legal aspects of their claims.
Car accidents cases make up the majority of our work for our car accidents attorney. The system favors insurance companies. Most people do not understand fully the applicable coverage and benefits available and, contrary to advertising, insurance companies are not on your side once you have been injured.
When someone is injured in a fall as a result of a slip or trip on someone else's property, the injured person is not automatically entitled to compensation. Insurance companies are quick to suggest that the injured person contributed to his or her own injuries by failing to use reasonable care. The description of the facts and circumstances surrounding your slip/trip and fall can be crucial to the outcome of your case.
Bike accidents are less common than car accidents, but the laws applicable to each are generally the same. You can read the car accidents page for a discussion about how insurance companies have the upper hand when an injured person does not have counsel. One of the challenges in bike accident cases is that there is often a bias against bicyclists.

John DiBartolo represented me after being hit by a car and was an incredible and reliable lawyer from start to finish. Both he and his staff are professional, kind, patient, and always willing to answer questions - even during a Pandemic. He is transparent and always made sure I had the latest updates on my case.
John really went the extra mile representing me and I received an even larger settlement than the initial offer. I am so grateful to have had him as my lawyer and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a personal injury lawyer.

I came in contact with attorney John P. Di Bartolo, over twenty years ago, after being injured in a car accident. He took care of my case with a successful settlement.
More recently, I was involved in a second automobile accident, and remembering his clear, and thorough explanations, his compassion, and professionalism, which made a profound impact in me, gave me the confidence for hiring him again.
He always responded promptly when needed, clearing my questions, and made me feel protected.
In both cases John helped me to prepare for the deposition in a relax and confident way.
I highly recommend

The professionalism of Att. Dibartolo and his team was beyond what I expected. I was always treated with the highest regard. My many calls and questions were always replied with knowledgeable and understandable answers. I truly felt as if my case was the only case he was working on. I couldn't reccomend Att. DiBartolo any higher! Definitely would use him again if the need ever arose again!

It's taken me a while to write this review because I am certain that my words won't accurately describe how grateful I am to have worked with John DiBartolo. In the scheme of things, I know my case was not a large one but the amount of work and energy he put into it was extensive and exhaustive all the same. He is intelligent, compassionate and straightforward - he tells it like it is - and was able to articulate the complexities of insurance companies and the law in a way that I could comprehend. I felt totally confident knowing he looked at my case from every possible angle and he truly went

John P. DiBartolo Jr. is the most efficient and nicest lawyer I have ever met. When he heard about my case from a former lawyer that doesn't do personal injury cases he immediately took it with confidence and compassion. He was very understanding of my situation. He fought like hell to help me get what I deserved. Most people worry about "ohh well how much of the cut does the lawyer get for helping me?" Let me tell you its a good amount for all the hard work he puts into the case and to help you fight when you're at your weakest point. He is the guy to pick to fight for you when you've become a

Looking for an attorney was a daunting task made necessary by the insurance companies and providers involved in my case. John’s solid, ethical and professional representation not only ensured that my medical needs were met but that I received a fair and reasonable settlement. Throughout the process, he was responsive, supportive, extremely knowledgeable and very kind. I would recommend him to anyone needing a caring and ethical advocate in the legal system.

I would unhesitatingly recommend the services of Attorney John DiBartolo.
In December 2014 my husband and I were rear-ended waiting to exit the Mass Pike, and within hours I experienced agonizing pain in my head, dizziness and nausea. I was diagnosed with a concussion and thus began a period of many months of terrible pain, dizziness, aversion to light and noise. For a long time I could not drive, travel, could not even go for a walk by myself; my sleep was interrupted throughout the night because of pain; in every way my quality of life was in steep decline. As a self-employed consultant, I suffered

If you are looking for the best you can find, John DiBartolo is your man. Bottom line? He got our son a great settlement, one he is happy with. But even better, he is a very smart, kind, and conscientious lawyer who communicates in an articulate, clear manner. If we didn't understand something in the case, he made sure we did. When we were stressed out about handling all the paperwork, he took it off our hands. And finally, John really sought to understand the lifestyle and personality of our young son, giving good advice throughout the 4 years we worked with him. Thank you, John.

I was referred to John by another attorney for assistance with a car accident injury. John's manner is comforting and professional instilling immediate trust. No tough talking advertising. Just good legal expertise and advocacy, excellent negotiation skills, and persistence. I was completely satisfied with his service and the settlement. I would highly recommend John.
