“Rick Nicotra has been a constant in my life the last several years as I’ve had the misfortune of being involved in multiple accidents. Due to some unfortunate personal circumstances, I did not follow through and quite frankly, did not think much about it. Rick called to advise me that he was trying to get a settlement. The case was resolved in short order. His compassion and understanding of my situation was truly touching. I will forever be grateful and will wholeheartedly recommend him if someone close to me ever needs an advocate.”
