So many good things to say about Anthony Conte and his law firm. My family and I can’t thank him enough for his expertise and guidance. Anthony doesn’t treat you like a number or a case; he treats you like family.
He approached our case with an open mind and was very efficient in assessing and navigating its complexity. Moreover, he was able to connect the dots in a world where another well-known law firm had failed. He was fearless and unreserved in his pursuit of understanding the facts of our case.
His expertise, resources, and commitment to justice are second to none. He is driven by a true passion to help others, not by greed. He stands out in a field full of his peers.
Just when we thought there was no hope for justice, he became the light we needed. We had almost given up until we were fortunate enough to have Anthony on our side.
At the end of the day, he checks all the boxes. Thank you, Anthony!

The Conte Law Firm exceeded my expectations in legal counseling. I would recommend The Conte Law Firm to anyone looking for professional, trustful legal counseling in the areas of insurance claims, personal injuries, civil litigation, and other areas of law.
Thank you, Anthony and the great people at Conte Law Firm for everything you have done for me and my family.” They are Professional, courteous, friendly, fast, knowledgeable, punctual, very empathic to my situation, and offer top-notch legal advice.
A pipe burst in my house and my insurance company denied my claim. Immediately Conte Law Firm took up my case and started demanding action from the Insurance Company. I was amazed by the professionalism that Conte Law Firm provided. Everything Anthony advised me happened! There wasn't one moment throughout this process where I felt that Anthony didn't prepare me or advise me correctly. He tells you that it is not what you want to hear and I admired and respected that about Anthony. He was very thorough and very experienced. Anthony knows what he’s talking about.
The Conte Law Firm was a step ahead of the competition and the insurance company. When I spoke to Anthony I felt like I was talking with a family member or a good friend. He is that easy to talk to! You could genuinely feel that Anthony wanted the best for me and more importantly wanted to maximize the return on my claim.
The Conte law firm is a law firm that is not driven or motivated by money. Anthony is a genuine person with a good moral compass that puts the customer's needs before his needs. He is willing to work with your situation and come to an agreement that best fits the client's needs.
This is by far my go-to law firm if I need any legal representation in the area of personal injury or insurance claims. I recommend Conte Law firm without a doubt.

I work in a commission only industry and sometimes management doesn’t want to pay out. Anthony helped me out on 2 separate occasion and got me my money upwards of $10k. He kept me informed on every step we were taking and always asked me if I was okay with the nexts steps. I couldn’t be more appreciative of Anthony and the timeframe he operated in! Highly recommend him.

On behalf of our mother, who was the client and with her participation in preparing this review, Mandell, Boisclair, & Mandell, Ltd., already came highly recommended as the premier law firm in Rhode Island where our mother's injury occurred. This was a relationship and educational process spanning nearly 5 years. Ms. Boisclair and Mr. Mandell were kind, patient, methodical, available to allay our mother's concerns and on top of this situation from the get-go. Our mother, while permanently affected by the issue, is more at ease after being heard and cared for not only with the legal experts but also their legal staff behind the scenes. We believe she was given the best advice and analyses of all outcomes. While we don't hope for others to be in similar circumstances, this is the law firm that will fight for their client's justice and in the end bring about the best possible outcome.

Joe is not only a great lawyer, but he’s also very empathetic and straight forward with every step of the process every time I left his office or got done with emails or phone calls with him I wasn’t left with questions because of how much information he really does give you to make sure you are fully confident in everything going forward and understanding of the process! Joe is an outstanding attorney he made the court process as smooth as butter making sure I had all of the information a few weeks beforehand and met me outside of the court room because he knew I was anxious about all of it! I will always recommend joe to every family member or friend who is going through what I just did or anything else he could help with because he seriously made such a stressful situation not as stressful as it would have been! Thank you Joe for everything!!!

I have gone to Attorney Martinous for several different legal matters. He is courteous and professional, easy to talk to, and accessible when I needed to speak with him. He promptly returns phone calls.
Martinous Law is quite a beautiful building, inside and out. But what I really appreciate is the convenient onsite parking and accessibility for all his clients. The firm is only a few minutes away from my home.
I have referred, and will continue to refer, all of my family and friends to his firm and all have been very satisfied with his firm and staff members. I would not hesitate to return to Attorney Martinous in the future, should I need legal services. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for legal services.

Professional, Caring, and Attentive it was worth saying twice. The title should say it all! About five years ago I was nearly killed in a workplace accident (2016). The accident left me in a scary place to say the least. When I was introduced to Peter my case had been started by another attorney. Long story short, Peter sat patiently while I rambled on about what happened to me. He formulated a general plan to start and presented it to me in a way that I could understand. Peter is a down to earth person that was always attentive and made me feel like I was his only client. I could go on and on about Peter Cerilli, but the bottom line is, read the title again and then make the call and let Peter do what he does best. Peter, thank you for helping me get through a few of my dark times (you were more than my lawyer and I can never repay you). Peter, you did the right thing for me even if it wasn't best for you. You always did what was best for me and my family. THANK YOU!

I had a serious injury from fall and Tim Lynch was vital and instrumental in my winning the case. I followed all of his advisements and every one was correct and was sound advice. Throughout the entire process, he helped me every step of the way. If I ever have need of more legal advice or assistance, I would not hesitate to call upon Tim Lynch and his office again. I would also recommend him to friends and relatives in a similar capacity.

I recommend Tim Lynch without hesitation. He represented me in a complex personal injury case, that was complicated by issues of federal law, workers’ compensation and Rhode Island tort law. Initially, the insurance company completely involved completely denied my claim and refused to compensate me one cent. Attorney Lynch filed a lawsuit and pushed my case through discovery and liligation. He never gave up. When it became clear that the insurance company was going to lose at trial. Attorney Lyncj was able to get them to pay the maximum amount under the insurance policy limits. I am absolutely thrilled with the result and was able to recover much more than I expected. Resolution of this case has helped me put my life back on tract. I will be forever grateful for the hard work and persistence of my attorney.

Tim was my lawyer for a car accident case. It was not an easy case, as I was unclear in my police report and the other driver, who lied in his statement, was very clear. That resulted in my case going through a deposition, as well as an arbitration. Tim kept me informed the whole way and did an outstanding job at explaining things to me. Whenever I would meet with, Tim he was very personable and professional. I was highly satisfied with the outcome of my case.

What a Wrongful Death Lawyer Can Do for You
A wrongful death lawyer specializes in representing families who have lost a loved one due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. These lawyers help families seek compensation for the emotional and financial losses associated with the untimely death of a loved one, including medical bills, funeral expenses, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering. Wrongful death claims can arise from various situations, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and criminal actions.
If you have lost a family member due to someone else’s wrongful actions, a wrongful death lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and pursue justice on behalf of your loved one.
When Should I Hire a Wrongful Death Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a wrongful death lawyer if a loved one has died as a result of someone else’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional harm. Some common reasons to hire a wrongful death lawyer include:
- Car accidents: If a loved one was killed in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident caused by another driver’s negligence (e.g., reckless driving, DUI, or distracted driving), a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim.
- Medical malpractice: If a loved one died due to medical negligence, such as a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue compensation from the healthcare provider.
- Workplace accidents: If your loved one died in a workplace accident or due to unsafe working conditions, you may be entitled to compensation from the employer or third parties responsible for the unsafe conditions.
- Defective products: If a defective product caused your loved one’s death, a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim against the manufacturer or distributor of the product.
- Criminal actions: If your loved one was the victim of a criminal act, such as homicide or assault, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue a civil claim for damages, even if a criminal case is also ongoing.
- Nursing home negligence: If an elderly loved one died due to neglect or abuse in a nursing home, a lawyer can help you hold the facility accountable for their wrongful actions.
Hiring a wrongful death lawyer soon after the incident ensures that important evidence is preserved and that you can meet any legal deadlines for filing a claim.
What Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Do?
A wrongful death lawyer provides a wide range of services to help families navigate the legal complexities of a wrongful death claim and seek compensation for their losses. Their responsibilities often include:
- Investigating the death: Conducting a thorough investigation of the circumstances leading to your loved one’s death, gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
- Establishing liability: Identifying who is legally responsible for your loved one’s death, whether it’s an individual, company, or government entity, and building a case showing how their negligence or wrongful actions caused the death.
- Calculating damages: Helping you determine the full extent of your financial and emotional losses, including funeral expenses, medical bills, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering.
- Filing a wrongful death claim: Preparing and filing the necessary legal documents to initiate a wrongful death lawsuit within the statute of limitations in your state.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with the responsible party’s insurance company or legal team to negotiate a fair settlement for your losses.
- Representing you in court: If a settlement cannot be reached, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Handling legal deadlines: Ensuring that all legal filings are completed within the deadlines set by your state’s statute of limitations for wrongful death cases.
How Are Wrongful Death Lawyers Paid?
Wrongful death lawyers typically work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Here’s how it generally works:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is usually a percentage of the total settlement or damages awarded, typically ranging from 25% to 40%. You won’t have to pay any upfront fees, and the lawyer only gets paid if they successfully recover compensation for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer does not win or settle your case, you generally won’t owe them any legal fees.
- Case expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, you may also be responsible for reimbursing the lawyer for case-related expenses, such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs. These expenses are typically deducted from the settlement or award.
It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a wrongful death lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee structure, meaning you only pay if the lawyer recovers compensation for you. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fee percentage: Most wrongful death lawyers charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or court award. For example, if you receive a $500,000 settlement and the lawyer’s fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $165,000, and you would keep the remaining $335,000.
- Case expenses: In addition to the lawyer’s fee, expenses such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs may be deducted from the settlement or award. These expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
Make sure to ask your lawyer for a clear explanation of their fees and case-related expenses before proceeding with your wrongful death claim.
Top Questions to Ask a Wrongful Death Lawyer
Before hiring a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and resources to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with wrongful death cases?
Ensure the lawyer has successfully handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s medical malpractice, car accidents, or workplace deaths. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify the lawyer’s contingency fee percentage and any additional costs, such as case expenses, that you may be responsible for. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges that could affect the outcome. -
How long will the process take?
Wrongful death cases can take time to resolve, so ask how long the lawyer expects the process to last, from filing the claim to reaching a settlement or going to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What types of damages can I recover?
Ask the lawyer to explain the types of compensation you may be entitled to, such as medical bills, funeral expenses, loss of income, and emotional suffering.
How to Check the Credibility of a Wrongful Death Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable wrongful death lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for wrongful death experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in wrongful death cases and have successfully handled cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on wrongful death cases.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) or local bar associations can indicate the lawyer’s dedication to wrongful death and personal injury law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Death certificate: Bring a copy of your loved one’s death certificate, as this is a key document in wrongful death cases.
- Medical records: If applicable, bring your loved one’s medical records, autopsy reports, or any documentation of their medical care leading up to their death.
- Accident or incident reports: If the wrongful death resulted from an accident, bring any police reports, accident reports, or workplace incident reports.
- Financial records: Provide documentation of your loved one’s income, benefits, and financial contributions to the family to help calculate economic damages.
- Correspondence: Bring any communication you’ve had with the responsible party, their insurance company, or legal representatives.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions for the lawyer about the legal process, potential outcomes, and fees.
- Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the events leading up to and following your loved one’s death.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice.
