I contacted Parker Waichman a little over 2 years ago in regards to a WTC claim. PW informed me, at that time, that I had to register with the WTC Health Plan. Well, this led to 2 years of patience, health exams and time (on both my part and PW's part) to have my health conditions certified. Directly following certification, Nicole Copertino quickly pushed my claim through with diligence and expert professionalism. I truly appreciate her care and concern for me. I look forward to a positive outcome. Duly note her expertise and talent. Thank You Nicole. Looking forward to working with you through to the outcome.

20 years after 911 as a first responder, I was diagnosed with cancer of the limp nodes and both thyroids. I had removal surgery. I was treated very well by my lawyers and staff; they kept me in the loop all the way. My legal matters are all behind me. Thank You Parker Waichman LLP
