Best attorneys in Buffalo. I would trust them with anything. I used them for personal injuries for my daughter and myself. They very successfully litigated two cases for me and my family that were life changing. They don’t rush through anything and are extremely thorough about medical evidence gathering. They’re very knowledgeable and honest. The staff is courteous and know their business. A young man, Tom, was our attorney and he couldn’t have been more wonderful to us. Immediate rapport and honestly cared about what happened to us. Serious, low key, and brilliant. Thanks for everything.

Richard Nicotra was my attorney, he and his staff we amazing. Always called me back timely if not answering me right away. Went above and beyond for my needs and helping me navigate through my case and medical appts. I had two spine surgeries because of my car accident and they were all very sympathetic to my needs and I received a settlement I deserved!!

I’m bedbound with severe MS. I was injured while I was being transferred from my Hoyer lift to my bath chair. Unfortunately my aide forgot to lock the chairs’ seat and the chair slid off the frame and I landed on the floor fracturing my shoulder. Being bedbound I needed a law firm that had to come to my home on numerous occasions to confer with the firm representing the aide agency…Robert Maranto was here without fail every time. His compassion and empathy displayed for my well being meant the world to me. The settlement was beyond my expectations and I will be forever grateful.
Nina Biggers via 
I would definitely recommend this legal team to friends and family. Great group of people.
Elissa Smith via 
Waited on my case for 10 years. Robert Maranto forgot long and hard for my payout. It was far from easy. I am glad I put my faith in them. Thank you so much!!!!
Carmine Tronolone via 
For a recent car accident, I retained the services of Andrews, Bernstein, Maranto & Nicotra, and was happy I did so. From the beginning I was very pleased with the professional service provided and time spent to explain the available options and legal issues of my case. I was kept apprised of all communications in a timely manner and all documents and other materials were prepared quickly and copies were provided to me. Their office staff were very courteous and helpful to address my questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to work again with the firm and would highly recommend them to anyone needing legal assistance. Thanks for a great experience
Steve Napster via 
Andrews, Bernstein, Maranto and Nicotra, PLLC is an extraordinary firm. The professional staff and top lawyers make a difficult situation seem easy. Robert and Hannah are definitely ” on the same page”. A few of the other lawyers assisted with my case and the teamwork certainly paid off. I would recommend them to anyone!
Stephanie Hacherl via 
Robert Maranto was extremely helpful and accommodating to all my needs. He answered all of the questions that I asked, and was very efficient in his work. He really took the stress that I had away and was very professional. I will definitely be recommending him as a lawyer to any good friend/ family member in need.
Jennifer Williams via 
I can’t speak highly enough of this firm, especially my attorney, Robert Maranto. He took a very tragic moment in my life and turned it in to a substantial amount of money, in a remarkably short period of time. I am so glad I chose this firm, and I recommend it highly. A+++++!
Tinamarie Blackwell via 
I was hurt in a slip and fall last year. I suffered two broken fingers with a large laceration that required surgery. I felt good about this firm from the moment I walked in. Thomas Kotrys was the attorney working on my case. He never got angry if I called to bother him about the case. He was always sympathetic and kind, but most importantly, he was honest and upfront with me. He settled the case for more than I thought. If you are looking for a young, smart, hardworking attorney, go with Thomas Kotrys!
John Boorady via 
I would recommend Bob Maranto to anyone in need of legal services. The firms professionalism and empathy far exceeded what i had expected from the lawyer representing me for my case.
Ellen Fechter via 
Greetings, I was represented by Andrew Connelly following a car accident in which I suffered neck and back injuries. I was concerned about short and long term medical care and wanted my best interest represented. Ultimately I needed neck surgery. Andrew at all times was there to provide guidance and advice. I was never involved in a serious accident like this before and did not know what to expect, it is a tremendous relief knowing you are in the hands of a competent professional who has experience in these legal issues. The surgery went well and a settlement was obtained. Its comforting to know I have an excellent lawyer I can go to if anything comes up in the future.
Kayleigh Martin via 
I was in a horrible accident with a semi. I had no idea what to do, my pain was getting worse and my insurance company was so confusing to work with. A friend referred me to Andrew Connelly, and I honestly don’t know what I would have done without him. I met with him and he immediately helped me get into doctors and referrals that I was waiting for. He was always available for my calls, even if they were silly or when I was in complete melt down panicking about something. I have never been in as much pain and had to deal with as much stuff ever in my life. At one point I had 9 doctors and was handling 16 medications. Andrew helped me through it all and was there for every step. I would recommend him time and time again. When it came to the lawsuit he walked me through every step, detail by detail so that nothing would surprise me. My lawsuit was not easy by any means, even the mediator said it was one of the oddest and most difficult. But Andrew did his best to make it as easy and less anxious on me as he could. He was able to get it settled for more than we were hoping. He is Superman. As a person, he is genuine, kind, hardworking and understanding. He was easy to talk to and helped explain things in terms I would understand. Even my doctors spoke highly of him and said he was easy to work with. About me, I was hit by a Canadian semi driver, who didn’t stop, and was slammed into the cement divider on the freeway. I had hip surgery and two wrist surgery’s. I to this day have chronic migraines and chronic pain. I still see a few doctors and need lots of monthly visits. Andrew fought to make sure the settlement would cover my future medical bills. I highly recommend Andrew Connelly and his staff.
John Pusateri via 
Mr Maranto personally handled my father’s case. He treated my 86 year old father with compassion and empathy. He petitioned the court to fast track the case and aggressively championed the case from a laughable insurance offer to an ultimate resolution that my father was satisfied with. My father was treated like a person and not just a case.
Christian Love via 
Did a great job representing me for what I needed.

Read Lawyers Response: This law firm has recouped $2316 out of $65,000 Award. Asked for $175,000. A human being bit off my eyebrow (intentional tort). The bar had insurance!!! They erased the video and said I attacked first. If that was the case, how did I win? By pursing the case to the end with the truth. Why such a long response with case details Mr. Maranto? If I was in the wrong how’d I get paid a penny!!! 5 out of 5 stars for best lair (lawyer)

Client Review via 
Personal Injury
Mr. Maranto is fantastic. Between him and his paralegal, Hannah, I have all my questions answered in a timely manner. I was involved in a car accident, where someone “break-checked” me, and Mr. Maranto did not hesitate to take my case. He came to my house for a consultation. As I have been in this situation for about 3 years, I am confident that Mr. Maranto is handling everything accordingly. He views his clients as personal acquaintances, not just a paycheck.

Richard via 
He really looked after me like a family member. Very concern, respectful an honest. Always asked me how I was feeling an doing at the present time. Works really hard on your case so that u get the best results. I was very happy with my settlement, he made sure I got what I deserved. At some point I felt abandoned but after talking with him I knew it was just because he’s that dedicated at what he does an is very busy giving all his client’s the same results. Proud to have him represent me an would do it again in case misfortune (accident) happens

I was in a motor vehicle accident and a friend referred me to Rick Nicotra. He handled my case with care and attention. Rick really listened to my needs. He addressed any issues I was having with filling out paper work or problems with the insurance company in a timely manner. I now recommend him to friends and family that have had personal injuries.

Mark via 
A few years ago, Richard (Rick) Nicotra represented me after I was involved in a car accident. I suffered a lower back injury, which was new to me after years of athletics. I had never been involved in a personal injury case like this and didn’t know the process, but a family member recommended I go see Rick just to get some guidance.
From the first meeting in his office, Rick and his staff made me feel comfortable. Rick took the time to walk me through the process, explained the various possible outcomes, and answered all my questions (and there were many!). I put my case in Rick’s hands that same day and I have never regretted that decision. My case took some time, but Rick was able to bring it to a positive conclusion for me and my family.
Rick’s knowledge of the law, skill as an attorney, and attention to the client have made me recommend him to numerous people since he handled my case. I hope I never need his services again, but if something happens it’s good to know he’s there. You don’t know how important it is to have a great lawyer until you really need one…and Rick is one of the great ones!
Christine S. via 
I first started with a TV lawyer. When they told me how much they wanted to settle for I cried. It wouldn’t even cover medical bills. Then I was referred to Richard Nicotra. He took over my case. He was caring, compassionate and professional. It took some time and he was very honest in his opinions, but we finally settled for much much more than the first group offered me. It didnt stop there. Richard Nicotra help me set up my finances to live off and not go hog wild spending. You couldn’t ask for better representation. Thank you Richard Nicotra.
John Fletch via 
I am a 49 year old man who has not had a history involving personal law. So when I was injured due to a car accident in 2013, I was hesitant in the recovery process …not only medically but legally as well. My decision to go with attorney Robert Maranto of Andrews, Berstein, Maranto & Nicotra proved to be a wise one. It was through a combination of experience patience and knowledge that Bob was able to see my case through…the result being…what was best for me. During these tough times, my legal choices were crucial…and I could not have chosen better.
Peter via 
Mr Maranto represented me in a back injury case due to to an auto accident. The insurance company offered me 100,000. We refused and after litigating the case mr Maranto got me 235,000 . I would 100 percent use this firm again.
Felicia G. via 
I had a wonderful experience, during a very hard time in my life with this law firm. Mr. Nicotra and his team took excellent care or me and my case. I was so impressed with their level of expertise, that I called them immediately after my next accident. I would never trust anyone else with a matter so important!
Nick Airsoft via

Great service… called with updates as soon as they knew something different. After the case was closed they still stayed in touch asking how I felt. Thank you so much for your great work and taking all the stress off of me with doctors and work and everything involved.

I was referred by a friend to Rick Nicotra following a mother vehicle accident. He really took care in handling my case. He answered all my questions in a timely manner. I highly recommend Rick for personal injury.
Suzanne Pike via 
Mr. Nicotra worked on my No Fault car accident case. Not only was he professional and proficient, he was great to work with. He was diligent in making sure I was able to get the car I needed while I was off of work along with insuring I was receiving my lost wages. Car accidents are unfortunate, so it’s great to know you have a good lawyer on your side.
Anonymous via 
Nicotra is very personable, patient and empathetic with his clients. He’s upfront with you and he explains the entire process with you, he never leads you to believe otherwise, he tells you like it is and he will not sale you a million dollar dream. Trust in Nicotra, he works for you and he looks out for your best interest.

Jessica C. via 
I was involved in a three-car car accident at a red light. I was the middle car and rear-ended. I started with a different lawyer in Lockport, NY, but eventually found Rick through a word of mouth referral. I discussed all the issues I was having and he was able to take over my case. It was the best decision I could have made. Rick is passionate, knowledgable, supportive, and he speaks in black and white terms. He never talked down to me or made my case out to seem like I was someone from those irritating commercials. I was treated like a human, always, and I truly appreciated it. My case was different in that it took years to get through with insurance companies, and when I found out I was medically declared permanently disabled, I went back to school. I was getting my master’s by the time it settled. Now that my case is over, he still checks in from time to time, which I think is unique because the case is over and he COULD have just gone on with the rest of his clients, but he really has great customer service skills. Rick is motivated, compassionate, blatant, and will do everything he can while keeping his promises. I will never go to another MVA lawyer, and I direct everyone I know his way!

I would recommend Bob Maranto to any and all of my friends and relatives. He is always on top of things and I feel very confident in him. Everyone at the office was always helpful and informative.
Todd Hannel via 
Couldn’t be happier with the way my case was handled. A very thorough, encouraging , professional and hands-on firm to work with. You are treated with respect, and not merely as a number here.
Geron via 
After being involved in a rear-end collision, I assumed my insurance company would take care of it, since the other driver was clearly at fault. Unfortunately, I was wrong.
After getting nowhere with the insurance companies, I met with Rick Nicotra for a free consultation. He took my case without hesitation, and immediately got the ball rolling.
Throughout the process, the insurance company offered several low-ball figures, which we rejected. It was clear the firm was ready and willing to take my case to trial to get the compensation they felt I deserved.
Rick kept me in the loop the whole time and explained his rationale for his course of actions. At the end of the day, he secured a settlement for more than 3 times the initial offer.
I can’t say enough about this law firm. Not only are they relentless advocates for their clients, but they’re truly genuine people who treat you like family. Call them today, you’ll thank me later!
Carol Guitardi via 
I broke my leg in a slip and fall accident. The insurance company for the store did not want to pay me anything because they said they didn’t know about the water. They sued the case and we ended up settling later on for more than I thought I would ever get. Highly recommend

Todd Hansen via 
So far, so good! This law office appears to have it’s stuff together. And I like the fact that they don’t have to advertise like the the the other 2 law firms with the 444444 and the 888888 numbers which tells me they get a lot of word of mouth advertising..the best kind. Also I called one of the 444 and/or 888 numbers and the attorney was very short and rude. After my case I will do a follow up to let you all know how my complete experience was.
Stacey via 
I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in 8/2014. Immediately, my husband recommended I sign with Mr. Nicotra for assistance. He’s the only attorney I would have gone to with this anyway. I am still being treated for my injuries so the PI case has not gone too far at this time. However, he and his assistant have been extremely reliable, friendly and courteous in responding to my various questions and assisting me through this mess. They have provided me real and specific details and information on how my injuries may impact my case, and advised me upfront with how the court system operates in these cases, and how the length of treatment connects to everything.
And let’s be honest, even not having to deal with the no-fault paperwork has been worth it’s weight in gold.
