“My Mom recommended Mr. DeSalvo to me. I wanted to be sure that everything was done in my case in a timely manner. He worked on my case and made sure my legal problems were taken care of. He handled my case fast, he was patient with me, and he was honest. Mr. DeSalvo is down to earth and I am glad that the case is over so I have closure. I feel great about the whole experience.”
Julius Spearman
Drugstore Clerk
“I felt comfortable with Mr. DeSalvo because he talked to me about my case in words that were understandable – not “attorney-language”. I was worried about whether I could trust a lawyer and whether I would be able to get him on the phone if I had concerns about my case. But I liked the way he handled my case because he was sympathetic, worked fast, and was very understanding. I knew I made the right choice the first time I spoke to Mr. DeSalvo. If I had a friend or family member who needed a lawyer, I would tell them “Why go anywhere else?!?!?!” I definitely recommend Scott to anyone and everyone! The whole case was settled in about 2 months. I really appreciate all that you have done for me. I could not have gotten any of this without you, Scott. Thanks for defending me and always being available to talk to me. And tell Rosa Thanks, too!”
Christine Bethscheider

“When I first met Mr. DeSalvo, I just knew that he would handle my case. I have used lawyers in the past, and they were not prepared for trial like you were. You got all the information you needed to handle the business at hand. You treated me with respect and made me feel secure, and you are very caring. You are an excellent lawyer.”
William Miller
Security Officer
“I hired Mr. DeSalvo because the way he presented himself, he seemed like the best lawyer for the job. He always made sure we would understand and kept us informed. He is a good and efficient lawyer. If I ever needed a lawyer or know someone who does I would feel safe to recommend Mr. DeSalvo.”

“Please allow me to begin by saying Thank You. You took on my Workers’ Comp case not knowing what it would be in terms of dollars, but even when you found out it was not a lot, you stuck with it. I respect you for that, and I would just want you to know that in the future I will refer any and everyone that I know who need a good Workers Comp attorney to you. Thank you for being one of the good guys!”
Wendell Murray

“To Mr. DeSalvo: Thank you very much for being the attorney that you are. You are never too busy to answer any questions I may have and I do appreciate that. Thank you very much!

“I never even met Mr. DeSalvo face to face. I hired him over the telephone because I could feel his honest spirit, and that did it! He was the first lawyer I spoke with who told me to be honest about what happened. I still do not know how he did it, but somehow, he got a settlement in my favor! He did not keep me in suspense. He was very nice on the phone. He’s good and fast! He did exactly what he promised. I think I will always be in good hands dealing with Mr. DeSalvo.”

“Mr. DeSalvo: I’d like to thank you so very much. I am simply moved to tears. I did hire you to be my Personal Injury attorney due to respect and confidence that you will handle my case well. And today, I can say that I would hire you again and would HIGHLY recommend you to anyone!”
Maria Forowycz

“My fiancée recommended Mr. DeSalvo to me, so I knew I could trust him for a job well done, with a good attitude towards the client. He got started in the case and was concerned about every detail of the case and was always available to be reached for any concern. I am very happy with my experience with Mr. DeSalvo because he handled the case in the proper, professional way. No complaints, everything was great, and he got the whole case done in a few months!”

“Scott, Thank You so much for helping me last week! I saw you there for me, and a weight was lifted from my shoulders. I felt like I finally had someone on my side who could be there to fight for me. You went so extraordinarily out of your way that I am having a little trouble expressing what it meant to me. Again, Thank You!”
Sue Nika

“I had another lawyer on my case but he wasn’t doing or couldn’t do anything as he said, so I searched for another lawyer and found Mr DeSalvo. I was worried because of the Statute of Limitations and my other attorney took 4 years to tell us nothing. Mr. DeSalvo was courteous and explained the depths of the case as well as the possibilities. He was a man of his word, and he was really there for my daughter. He took care of the best interest of my child. He is direct and to the point. He knows what he is doing. And he works totally for his clients. He stands by what he says, does, and means every word. He is a good man and attorney. Thank You Mr. DeSalvo for taking care of my and my daughter’s best interests. I am totally satisfied and so is my daughter. We can finally put this behind us and move on. My daughter thanks you very, very much, too!”
Nicole Palmer

“I was referred to Mr. DeSalvo and was told that he was the best person to talk to if I was injured. I was a little cornered about whether the lawyer I hired would really fight for me in my work injury case, and how long it would take. Mr. DeSalvo treated me like family, he was fair, and he resolved my case quick.”
Seth Ketchum
Industrial Mixer
“Dear Mr. DeSalvo: My mother and I wanted to thank you for everything you have done for us! We can’t begin to express our appreciation and gratitude enough!”
Lynette and Mae Tucker
Chicago, Illinois
“Mr. DeSalvo has a lot of care in him about people. I didn’t worry about anything because once I talked to Mr. DeSalvo, he made me know my worries were over. He really lets you know he is on your side. He made sure I was comfortable and he answered all of my questions. He talked to me on the telephone. He didn’t push me off on someone else. He has a big, wonderful heart! My case was a success, and I would refer a friend or loved one to him from now until forever!”
“It is not all about how much money I recovered. Mr. DeSalvo is one of a kind. Other attorneys once they get your case, they don’t have time to talk and make you feel like you need them but your case means nothing to them. There should be more like Mr. DeSalvo! I thank him because he really is on the client’s side!”
Teresa Martin

“Scott: Thanks for everything! You are a really great lawyer and an even better friend!”
Joe and Anne Galvan
Graphic Artist and Sales Representative
“A family member referred me to Mr. DeSalvo. I came to his office and he was very nice and very caring. Right away, it seemed like he could get the job done for me. So I hired him and it worked out just fine. My son and I were hurt when we were hit by a car while crossing the street in the crosswalk. I was really worried about me and my son getting our bills paid and being treated fairly. I have never had a law case before, so I was pretty worried about how long it would take and whether my son and I would be protected.”
“He did a Master job—he was great from the beginning to the end and was great with every question I had and because I could tell he cared, I felt like everything would be okay. He told me not to worry. When he talked to me and explained everything all the worry went away.”
“He has very friendly people in his office, and he really made me feel at home whenever I went over there. I have no complaints at all. He had my back and everything worked out great. He is a great person besides being a great and skilled lawyer. He will take care of you like he took care of me and my son. Thanks for everything Mr. DeSalvo – I hope we meet again in the future!”
[Me, too, Michelle, but no more injuries, okay? – Scott]
Michelle Clark
Customer Service Representative
“I hired Mr. DeSalvo because he came well-recommended to me. Once I hired him, I had no worries. He broke the entire legal process down to simple terms that are clearly understood. The thing I liked best was his honesty and consistency in moving the case forward. I felt that he would work hard and do his very best to solve and settle my case, and he was confident that he could do the best to get the very best settlement we could. If someone in my family needed a lawyer, he would be the very best attorney to get the case settled. He’s an attorney I trust and he can be trusted to tackle the case. I liked him so much, I hired him a second time! He has settled two cases for me!
Kim V. Ewing
Secretary
“Mr. DeSalvo is a very good lawyer. I did some research before hiring Mr. DeSalvo. He was very professional. I received a good settlement on my case. This was my first time using a lawyer but he kept me informed on my case, and he works good with the client resolving their case. I am happy and satisfied.”
Michael Maury
Construction Laborer
"A friend of mine told me about Mr. DeSalvo. I was really worried about my doctor bills being paid. I never had a lawyer or any kind of case before. Mr. DeSalvo made sure my bills got paid and that I recovered my lost wages. He was very professional, quick-witted, and in control. Thanks to Mr. DeSalvo, my case was a success!
Tamberia Johnson
Customer Service Representative
"My Mom recommended Mr. DeSalvo to me. I never hired a lawyer before Mr. DeSalvo but he answered all my questions and constantly stayed in contact with the insurance company and kept me updated on the status of my case. He made me feel like there was hope of getting justice in my case. I feel like he did an excellent job in a timely manner on my case. Thank You!"
Shakka Bradford
Bank Teller
"I had a case with another lawyer, but they dropped my case after 6 months of frustration. I was afraid Scott would drop my case too, because it was a difficult case to get recovery. Mr. DeSalvo was able to track down the person responsible for my injuries when the other lawyer couldn't. He got me a settlement and was even able to reduce the doctor bills. Mr DeSalvo got me more money than I thought I would get! Confident is the best word I would use to describe Mr. DeSalvo handling my case. I already referred my mother to Mr. DeSalvo for her work injury! He beats the Defendants in his cases as if he was the one who was injured. Very professional and he got the job done!
Sinovia Bell
Medical Administrative Assistant
"Mr DeSalvo, thank you very much for handling my case. I appreciate everything you have done for me in getting the best offer. I appreciate your taking the time to talk to me to answer my questions. Thank you!"
"The first lawyer I hired did not seem to care about me, but was only interested in me signing my name before things were properly explained to me. Mr. DeSalvo kept me abreast of how things were going and I was always informed when something was or was not happening. Mr DeSalvo is honest and upfront: he is more concerned about what you are concerned about and wont do anything without your permission. I like that he is easy to communicate with, with no airs or separation between lawyer and client. I am very pleased with the outcome in my case (settlement) and I will most definitely refer my family and friends who need a lawyer to you!"
Nina Ellison
School Teacher
“I hired Mr. DeSalvo because he indicated professionalism to me and I felt that he would do the best representing me. I was worried about getting a fair settlement for my rotator cuff injury, and he expedited the settlement. I feel very good about how he handled my case. Everything worked out very well.”
Charles “Chuck Cannon” Giannone
Journalist
Mr. DeSalvo is a good lawyer to talk to. My main concern in my case was getting full recovery and a fair settlement. He will talk to you about your case, not settling your case for little money. He made me feel good about my case and confident that we would get a good deal. He handled my case with confidence, like a good attorney should.
Ivory Johnson
Construction Worker
“I had a lawyer before I hired Mr. DeSalvo, but I fired him because the other lawyer wasn’t “into” into my case. So I was looking for a new lawyer and then I spoke to Mr. DeSalvo about my injury and what could be done, and I’m glad I had him as my lawyer. I was concerned about making sure that the young lady did not get away with hitting my car and causing injuries to myself and to know she was not right. Mr. DeSalvo cares, and he is there for the little man, so that the little man can stand tall. He put in a lot of time and he wasn’t afraid to go to Court to prove the point. He was confident and wouldn’t quit until the last word was said. He cared about me and my case. He’s good. He’s a good lawyer and I‘m glad I had the chance to meet him.”
Dennis Brown
Forklift Operator
“I hired Mr. DeSalvo because he is an attorney who really cares about his clients, and he takes the extra effort to makes sure the client is cared for in every possible way for the best results in their case. He gets the job done right, he’s fast, and he does quality work. I have been delightfully pleased with Mr. DeSalvo because he has exemplified Honesty, Integrity, and Trust. He went to work immediately on my case, making calls, and following up on every detail, and resolving my case in several weeks. I really felt satisfied, educated, and helped.”
Leroy Bowers
Construction Worker
I had an attorney before Mr. DeSalvo. The day before the trial in my case, the other lawyer dismissed my case, claiming that he and I had ‘irreconcilable differences’ of which I knew nothing about. I didn’t know what to do. That’s when I met Mr. DeSalvo. I could feel his concern from the very beginning. My case was a mess, and Scott said “Sharon, I’ll do my best” and he always kept in touch with me. I encounter attorneys all day in my job, and a lot of them are just nasty. If you hire Mr. DeSalvo, you have an attorney that will be concerned about you, that knows how to respect you, and I believe does his best to resolve the case for you as fast as possible. Overall, I Thank God for introducing me to Scott. He is one of the nicest and most down to earth people I have ever met, and is also is always professional.
Sharon Sscott
Sales Associate
“When I was considering lawyers, Mr. DeSalvo seemed to know a lot more and told me a lot more than others did. I hired him. He got me a good settlement amount quick. He is fast, and always let me know about things. He made me feel very good about my case. He had faith in me and my case even when I didn’t. He is a wonderful lawyer doing a wonderful job.”
Cynthia Outler
Homemaker
“Mr. DeSalvo was very open and honest with me, so I felt confident in hiring him. I was worried about how much of a settlement I could get, and how long I would have to wait. He’s different than other lawyers I have used in the past. Frankly, I do not like most lawyers and I think that some of them lie, they do not return phone calls, they are rude, harsh, and some have no business practicing law. Mr. DeSalvo got straight to the point on how severe my injuries were and what they were worth as far as what insurance companies pay for injuries. He was quick, he got me the maximum for my injuries, and he was always truthful. I was secure in what he told me about my case. And secure with him fighting for me as my attorney. He doesn’t hustle you, he is sincere and truthful, and he didn’t mind me asking him a million questions. I refer all of my friends and family members to him because he is a true professional.”
Steve Parson
Doorman
“Mr. DeSalvo took my case even though I brought it to him long after the accident happened, and right before the case was about to expire. He reviewed the case right away and took it to Court. He is different from other lawyers because he keeps me in touch about my case, tells me what I need to do, and tells me what he is doing on my case. With him handling my case, I feel confident and relaxed.
Guy Oppedisano
Disabled/Chef
“I hired Mr. DeSalvo because I trusted him to handle my case with professionalism. Before I knew about Mr. DeSalvo, years ago, I suffered a very severe injury and hired a lawyer that a friend suggested. The case could not have been handled any worse than it was by this other lawyer. While I am angry and frustrated that I had another injury, I like Mr. DeSalvo’s good attitude and he makes you feel at ease. Rest assured that Mr. DeSalvo will handle everything perfectly and recover the money you deserve.”
Erin Riley-Benson
Waitress/Homeaker
“A friend of mine referred me to Mr. DeSalvo, and when I spoke with him over the telephone, he seemed like he was very straight up. He kept me informed and gave me his opinion on the case, but he let me make my own decision. He made me feel very confident about my case. I would refer a friend or family member who needed a lawyer to him.”
Vanishia Jamison
Store Manager
“I hired Mr. DeSalvo instead of another lawyer because of his honesty and willingness to help. I never felt like I was bothering him with my questions and worries. He explained things real good and made sure I understood all the answers to my questions. My biggest worry about my wife’s injury was getting lost in the rush of everything that was going on.
Mr. DeSalvo was always there to watch over our best interests. He gave me the peace of mind that he is there for us 24/7. We had a problem at the hospital concerning care for my wife because the doctors were not keeping us informed. One call to Mr. DeSalvo and he was at our side at the hospital. He could have made a phone call, but instead, he came to the hospital to help us with the problem when we needed him most. He was always there for us.”
Loren and Melissa Brooks
Truck Driver
“Mr. DeSalvo is a very fair lawyer. He will tell you if you have a case and what he can do about helping you. When I hired him, my number one concern was the insurance company paying me for the time I lost from work because of my injury. Other lawyers turned down my case, but Mr. DeSalvo helped me get the money I deserved. He made sure I was informed on my case every step of the way. He got the job done. I would refer a friend or family member to him any time because I like him as a person and a lawyer.”
Dorothy Hamilton
Security Guard
“I was worried about getting paid for my time lost from work injury when I hired Mr. DeSalvo. He explains the legal system in plain English and explains your options in the case before he takes any action. The insurance company denied my case from the beginning and did not want to pay anything. Mr. DeSalvo got them to pay and was able to settle my case quickly and got me a fair settlement, even though it was a tough case. I really feel like I got the best possible settlement we could. I send all of my friends and family to Mr. DeSalvo because he works hard to get you your fair share for an injury.”
John Czaplewski
Industrial Machine Repairman
“I met Mr. DeSalvo when he was calling my medical office trying to get help for one of his clients. He was very sincere and he really cares about his clients. That’s why I hired him. Since then, Mr. DeSalvo has helped my family with two cases. He goes the extra step for you and makes you feel like a friend, not just a “client.” In one of the cases, I brought a case to him last minute. After he hung up with me, he called the insurance company, and within 30 minutes, LITERALLY, he had gotten me a very generous settlement–no court costs. He really went out of his way to help me, and never makes you feel like “you should have known that” attitude that you get with a lot of other attorneys. Working with Mr. DeSalvo has been a very nice experience. I will ALWAYS refer people who need a lawyer to him. He’s the best!”
