I cannot thank and refer this firm enough for all they have done. Most importantly Steve Coffey A.K.A. (Trial Machine) and unless you have sat in on a trial that Steve was involved you will never truly know. Steve keep dominating like the machine you are and not just a trial machine but well known & respected individual all around.
Thanks,
Chris S

Several years ago, I’ve had the pleasure to retain Stephen Coffey through O’Connel and Aronowitz law firm. This law firm has great client service and a strong reputation. I was able to comfortably communicate the needs I had at the moment and was provided service immediately. Stephen was professional and honest. He was flexible with his schedule, being easy to meet up with as well as contact over the phone. It was evident how knowledgeable and skilled Stephen was. I was experiencing a difficult and complex situation, but he assisted me with keeping composure and staying level headed. Although there were times I had doubt about what would occur, the work that Stephen had done behind the scenes prevailed. Stephen was reassuring and had my best interest. I am grateful and appreciative with the service I was provided. I would highly recommend Stephen Coffey as an attorney to anyone I know in need of one.

I wanted to write about the excellent representation and smooth/quality experience provided by Esq. Stephen Coffey, Rachel Marr and the firm of O'Connell and Aronowitz.
My son was injured riding his motorcycle. Although the operator of the car was at fault, he attempted to blame my son, providing misleading information at the scene, as well as with the insurance companies. Once we realized what we were dealing with, I contacted a lawyer friend who strongly recommended Stephen Coffey, an extremely experienced pro, at a very reputable firm, of which I was familiar.
Steve accepted the case, on contingency, and was on top of the matter. He went the extra mile investigating the scene, acquiring all relevant bills directly from the hospital, and reviewing all the little details that worked in our favor. Steve and Rachel's support, good listening, use of resources/colleagues, responsiveness, and instant follow-up, made the entire process really fast and easy.
In summary, Steve was able to quickly negotiate a substantial settlement, (after saying no a few times), knowing just how much he could push the amount of the award , w/o going to trial. His domain experience and resources really benefited the case. I highly recommend. I can not think of anything Steve and his firm could have done better.

"I have Lawyer" That is the first thing that comes out of my mouth when somebody I know or even a semi-new acquaintance says I'm looking for a attorney. I have used O'Connell and Aronowitz for years and on many different situations, The attorney I am am luckily enough to call "mine" is Pam Nichols, and best word to describe her is OUTSTANDING! That being said, the whole firm very professional, courteous and just down right friendly!
