Testimonials

Patrick Hewes of Pitta & Baione was instrumental in my certification for the WTC benefits. This is after LHI and MCA/Sedgewick (3rd party adminstrators for WTC) kept postponing health certification and taking no action for 17 months. Patrick Hewes persisted with phone calls and documentation to move LHI and MCA/ Sedgewick to complete the process. Patrick Hewes was also instrumental in helping my friend towards health certification. We both could not have gotten through the frustrating, time delayed process without his great help. I highly recommend Patrick Hewes and Pitta & Baione for their persistence and tenacity to get the job done. Patrick Hewes and Pitta & Baione are the best for getting through this complex, layered process.

Sincerely,
Vicki Brown

This review is long overdue but couldn’t let the opportunity to share my deep gratitude for the amazing group of folks who helped us with our 911 claim pass by without acknowledging the wonderful service they have provided to us. I don’t live in NYC so my initial contact with Lian and Yichun were via email. I have dealt with a number of firms in the pass and I was very impressive with how prompt, responsive and dedicated they both were. Once we had a chance to meet face to face, they were very empathetic, understanding, caring and patience with us. They listen with empathy and caring that made me feel like I was talking to old friends. They carefully weight our options and explain the process of filing the claim and let us know their game plan as well as establish proper expectations. The entire process took a little over 2 years including probate. Every interaction thereafter have been prompt and responsive. Lian always kept us updated on the status of the claim as well as kept the whole process transparent. From time to time they will call or email to check on my elderly mom and send her holidays treats. They are so kind and thoughtful. I honestly can’t thank them enough for all that they have done to help us with the claim and so much more. Their services and dedication exceed my expectations and I would absolutely recommend Lian, Yichun and the Pitta & Baione LLP team.

Great, Great, Great, people, they work with you and help you out with everything, they made me feel so comfortable and made the process so easy for me and my family. Cannot be more happier with their help and making me understand the process.

My beloved mother passed away from a 911 related condition. I was going to file a 911 VCF claim on my own but it got too much to handle gathering all the documentations. I did a Google search and chose Pitta & Baione. The first thing I looked at was the legal staff bios. As an Asian American who was raised in Manhattan Chinatown, I was glad to see an Asian American lawyer on the team and decided to give the firm a call. Intake person took my info and put me in touch with a client relationship manager and a case manager to get my case started. I am currently working with Lian. Although I don’t need the interpretation services offered, I am glad to I am able to work with someone that understands my culture and understands my mixed emotions while I am still grieving. Lian explained to me the steps we need to take before submitting the claim. So far my experience with Pitta & Baione has been positive and professional.
