“I was injured in a motor vehicle accident several years ago. A friend referred me to Costello Law Firm. Mr. Costello was professional, courteous and always available when I had questions about my case. The defendant's insurance company refused to offer any settlement money for my injuries so Costello Law Firm took my case to trial. Mr. Costello impressed me as an excellent trial attorney. The jury found the defendant at fault and awarded me $110,000.00. I was beyond happy at how hard Chris and his staff worked and appreciated everything that he did for me.”
