My wife and I hired Restivo & Murphy to replace our former lawyer after we got into a bad car accident and suffered serious injuries. Not only did they take immediate steps to fix our prior lawyer’s mistakes, they answered all of our questions and kept us in the loop at all times. In the end, we each got a great settlement. I highly recommend Restivo & Murphy for anyone looking for a great personal injury lawyer.

I got into a bad car accident and was recommended to Restivo & Murphy. They made my case and life so easy while I went through my pain and suffering. The company was always on top of things with my doctors and insurance company that I couldn’t ask for more. This is the level of professionalism that we love to see and I would definitely recommend them to anyone that needs a personal injury lawyer!!! Thank you again!

I retained Restivo & Murphy LLP as my lawyers after I was involved in a serious car accident. Patrick and Eric and their paralegal Vanessa and the entire staff were there for me from day one and explained the process at each step. They got me the maximum possible compensation. They are the best personal injury attorneys and I recommend Restivo & Murphy to anyone involved in an accident.

I have nothing but praise for the professionalism, knowledge and care offered by the firm of Restivo & Murphy. In particular, Patrick Murphy and Eric Kang were instrumental in bringing my case to fruition. When other firms were not willing to take on the case, they were willing to do so on the basis of its merit rather than the bottom line. Through hand holding at depositions to explaining each stage of the process, they were supportive and kind. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

From the beginning everything was handled very professionally. Patrick and Eric and their team explained the process very well to me so I wasn't guessing what the next step would be. When it came time to settle they fought to get the most possible $ amount. Way beyond my expectations. I definitely recommend their services.

If you need a personal injury lawyer, I would highly recommend Restivo & Murphy. Patrick and Eric are two of the best in the business. They were always attentive to my case and kept in touch from beginning to end. They worked tirelessly to get more money than I was hoping for. They were professional, friendly and caring, and I could not have been happier with the outcome!
