Testimonials
When I first approached the law firm I was a complete and utter mess physically. I truly had no control over events in my life.
THE REGULAR activities of daily living WERE overwhelming. Frank and Rebecca provided reassurance and security. Knowing they were only a phone call away gave me confidence and a relieved feeling because I knew I had their support and was able to focus solely on rehabilitation. As my health improved during rehabilitation, they provided me with more insight into my case. That insight gave me strength and formed the foundation of my settlement. Years later, I see it was truly a team approach. They listened. They understood that the accident did not just affect me but also my family as a whole. I believe the best compliment one can give is a referral.

“Exceptional Law Firm: Outstanding Personal Injury Representation. I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional service provided by the law firm, particularly attorneys Lesly Joseph and Frank Tierney, along with their law clerk, Tara Renaud. They recently represented me in a complex personal injury case, and I am extremely pleased with the outcome they achieved despite the numerous challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. From the very beginning, Lesly Joseph and Frank Tierney demonstrated their expertise and dedication to my case. They took the time to thoroughly understand the intricacies of my situation, providing me with honest and transparent guidance about my options. Throughout the entire process, they were communicative, keeping me informed of any developments and patiently answering any questions or concerns I had. One of the most remarkable aspects of their representation was their unwavering commitment to my case, even amidst the delays caused by the pandemic. The staff was instrumental in ensuring the smooth progress of my case despite the challenges posed by remote working arrangements and court closures. Furthermore, their genuine empathy and compassion throughout the process provided me with a sense of comfort and support during a difficult time in my life. I wholeheartedly recommend this law firm for any personal injury case. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to securing the best possible outcome are second to none. I am incredibly grateful for their hard work and dedication in resolving my case, and I am truly satisfied with the result they achieved for me.

Made us feel as though we were their only clients
Worked with Frank and Lesly and their team for almost 6 years. They made us feel as though we were their only clients with the level of service and compassion they provided. If we had any questions, we always got our answers promptly. Their ability to work with someone with an invisible disability, and adapt to that person’s needs, was amazing. Totally recommend this law firm.

I was involved in a MVA 5 ½ years ago. I had no clue what to do after the fact because of my injuries. Someone had referred me to Frank and Lesly to see if they could help me. And I am so grateful I did. They took everything over, were able to get me all in home support, rehab etc. I would not be where I am today if it wasn’t for them. They were always there to answer my questions, time and time again when I couldn’t understand what was happening. Kathy was always answering my emails to help me through all the process. They were always upfront and honest about what to expect, and what they could do to help me. If you are looking for an amazing legal team you have found it with them!
