What Our Clients Are Saying

Attorney Trichilo did a awesome job. He got the amount of money back that I deserved in my case. My case was done in a timely manner and very professional setting.

Attorney Trichilo did a awesome job

This was our first case and involvement with any attorney and we couldn’t be more pleased with our overall experience and outcome.

We called and interviewed multiple attorneys when first deciding to hire a lawyer. Mr. Trichilo was the only one that told us what to expect and sent us the needed forms and engagement letter. He even followed up and asked if he could answer any questions.

Mr. Trichilo appears to be a gentle and soft spoken man when you first meet him. When it came time to go toe-to-toe with the big insurance company, we felt that we had the bigger dog in the fight! He was professional, organized and thorough in every aspect of our Workers Comp case. He managed our expectations and in the end we received more than we ever expected.

If you need an attorney, look no further and give Benjamin Trichilo a call.

This was our first case and involvement with any attorney

Ben Trichilo handled the wrongful death litigation for mother’s estate. Ben was a pleasure to work with. He was attentive, compassionate, and kept us well informed throughout the process. Ben was very knowledge about the laws as it related to our wrongful death case. We completely trusted his advice and guidance, which ultimately lead to a favorable settlement. I would highly recommend Ben Trichilo to anyone.

Ben Trichilo handled the wrongful death litigation for mother’s estate

Dear Mr. Trichilo, I would like to take this opportunity to express my extreme gratitude and appreciation for all your hard work and relentless effort and persistence in pursuing a positive outcome in my legal battle. It was one of the hardest and most emotional situations I have ever been in, and I felt throughout the process you went over and beyond the call of duty to resolve the matter as quickly and fairly as possible. Your confidence and assurance helped me tremendously in coping with the process, yet you were always truthful and forthright. I was always kept in the loop and was educated and informed throughout the lawsuit. Your patience and professionalism were impressive, but your sincere caring and concern were what really set you apart from most attorneys. You couldn’t have been more thorough and accurate, especially since this was complicated and complex in that you had to deal with. Overall, you are truly an anomaly and I will be forever grateful to you. Though I hope no one has to go through what I went through, I will certainly highly recommend you and your law firm if anyone is looking for a top firm.

Dear Mr. Trichilo, I would like

I appreciate the time, energy and effort that Benjamin Trichilo put into my case. He demonstrated superior knowledge for his craft, and he always made himself available to insure that I understood actions to be taken, to include any developments on the part of opposing council. I can’t think of a time when I had a question or circumstance to review with Ben were he wasn’t willing to take the time to insure I had a level of comfort for the situation. Might I suggest, Isn’t that what you want when your personal safety and well-being is a stake?

Thank you Benjamin Trichilo for your support and guidance through this process, It is greatly appreciated.

I appreciate the time, energy and effort that Benjamin Trichilo

Mr. Trichilo and his team has been super helpful, and Almost got 5 times more than what the company was offering at the beginning.

Mr. Trichilio has fought for my right, when the company stopped my benefits and offered me only a very small amount as settlement with which I was not going to be able to take care of my medical condition for one year, when I contacted Mr. Trichilo he has fought my case and settled my case with five times more than the initial offer. If you really want to fight your case, and you don’t want your right to be wasted by your company I definitely recommend you to contact Mr. Trichilo to help you.

Mr. Trichilo worked my case with Mr. Cadem, and Mr. Montagna they are the best team. I give them 5 stars for proficiency, helpfulness.

Mr. Trichilo was most helpful and informative from our first phone contact and during my entire time that I needed his service. I truly feel that I would not have had the care I really needed if it not for his knowledge and compassion. I have referred several persons that I have met who were looking for a lawyer to Mr. Trichilo.

Mr. Trichilo went above and beyond to help my husband and myself with his very challenging case. When we first contacted Mr. Trichilo my husbands case had been denied by the insurance company and he was able to have a Full Commission reverse the ruling. Because of that My husband received a substantial lump sum payment and MSA approved annuity to make sure all future medical needs are taken care of. Because of my husbands very serious injuries I was the main contact with Mr. Trichilo and He helped me so very much and made me feel like everything would be ok and he told me to take care of myself and my husband and he would take care of everything else. We are very thankful for everything he did for us!

Mr. Trichilo went above and beyond to help my husband and myself

After suffering an injury at work and being denied coverage by the insurance company, I searched for an attorney with top knowledge of Virginia workman’s compensation claims. I found the best attorney after their law school and experience. Mr. Trichilo ranked at the top of his law school class. We talked and he took my case. The paper work took several weeks to gather and file with the state. Every step along the filing issue he kept me informed.my case took over a year to reach a workman’s compensation commissioner to be heard. Mr. Trichilo was very professional at the hearing. After several weeks past, he called to say we won the hearing. The key word is we. Several more past and no compensation check for the money due. He filed paper to WCC and with in two weeks i had a check with extra owed for not paying on time. Mr. Trichilo had best interest now. Time passes with more hearings and communications with insurance company. Every set of the process, i received e-mails of each corresponds. This case lasted over five years from the date of injury to settlement and attorney Trichilo and his staff was with me all the way. I would highly recommend him.

After suffering an injury at work and being denied coverage

My husband was severely injured in an automobile accident while on the job. We hired an attorney, and for eight years, he was awful. We finally fired him, and hired Benjamin Trichilo, and in a matter of two months, Mr. Trichilo concluded the case in the utmost favorable manner. We were amazed at how responsive he was, and how he handled the case. We had no idea that such a good attorney existed after the nightmare we had with this other attorney. Mr. Trichilo kept us in the loop of everything, and was so extremely quick we wished we had retained him years ago. I would recommend Mr. Trichilo to any one. He is the best attorney out there in Northern Virginia. How refreshing it was to have an actual attorney that returned calls, carbon copied me on everything, and I was never in the dark about what was occurring. THAT is what a good attorney is, no, EXCELLENT attorney is. Benjamin Trichilo, Esq., deserves the best because he is the best at what he does. WOW, impressed.

Ben went above and beyond for me. I had a pretty bad injury and I had never been through anything like this before and he was always there to answer any questions or concerns we had through all of this. When you go through what went through it gets to be a little overwhelming but he was always there to talk me through every step of this process. I always felt like I was his only case (I know I wasn’t) but he did anything for me and figure out what we needed to move forward. He had the best team working for me also!!!!

Ben went above and beyond for me

Unfortunately, I suffered an injury while on the job. My painful experience was not only due to my physical constraints but also from having to deal with the frustration of the insurance company in providing the treatment I needed. Ben is dedicated and caring. He ensured that the process ran smoothly with my treatments. He took the time to properly explain each step of the process and my rights. With Ben’s assistance, I was awarded a favorable settlement and can now move on to the next chapter in my life. I wholeheartedly recommend others to seek his professional services.

He handled all the fillings and correspondences in a timely and professional manner while at the same time keeping me updated on the case as it progressed.

At the end negotiated a very favorable settlement.
