Have been using this firm for 50 years. Delt with John Copenhaver. What a wonderful man. Remember when they brought in Rick Derrico. Now dealing with Rick and Michelle Derrico. Wonderful attorneys

I am only giving this place a one star just because they won’t allow you to give any less to make a review. This law firm is ONLY OUT TO GET YOU OUT OF YOUR MONEY then they remove representation once you question them on what is going on. MALPRACTICE BEWARE DO NOT USE THIS LAW FIRM. When asked for an update on my case after 2 months of not hearing anything, I simply question them why I have not received an update and Michelle stated she cannot speak with us on the decisions made on my case. And IMMEDIATELY removed representation.
