I’m incredibly grateful to Attorney John Morrissey and paralegal Victoria Hanson for their professionalism, dedication, and support throughout my workers’ compensation case. Navigating the legal process after a life-changing workplace injury has been overwhelming, but their knowledge, guidance, and attention to detail have made a difficult journey much easier. A serious injury affects so much more than your ability to work, and having a legal team that understands those challenges makes all the difference. Thank you both for your hard work and commitment. I truly appreciate everything you’ve done and highly recommend them!

I am very happy with my experience working with Attorney Matthew Tortolani at Sweeney Merrigan. He was professional, responsive, and straightforward throughout the process. He listened to my concerns, kept me informed, and negotiated a settlement that exceeded my expectations. Most importantly, I felt respected and confident in his representation. Highly recommended.

An accident is never a pleasant experience, the stress and the pain are bad enough, but then having to deal with legal issues on top of it, just adds to the nightmare. Not something you want to deal with alone. We are bombarded with ads for attorneys these days, but luckily for me I called Sweeney - Merrigan. From the initial call, to the end of the process, I delt with the same two people the whole time . Heather Salter, and Erin McHugh were incredible. If you called or texted, they got right back to you, and every interaction begin and ended with care, compassion, and professionalism. Sweeney - Merrigan are lucky to have these two women on their team, and if another unfortunate situation occurs, I would not think twice about picking up the phone and calling them for their help. Thank you Heather and Erin for your assistance, it is thoroughly appreciated.

My experience with Atty John Morrissey and Victoria Hanson was Amazing!! From the start it was handled by the two very thoroughly getting all the facts and submitting documents as needed. I frequently called Victoria for any questions or concerns.Never once did a phone call go un answered. During the process I knew I was in Good hands.Johns court experience took hold. BOTH John& Victoria went above and beyond the duties expected. I will recommend the Sweeney/Merrigan team to everyone.Its True "you dont need a Miracle you need a Merrigan!!!

I had a good experience with Sweeney Merrigan Law after my motorcycle accident. The whole personal injury process was new to me, so I had a lot of questions along the way. Maggie was very patient with me and took the time to explain what was happening with my case and what to expect next. I really appreciated that she didn’t make me feel like I was asking too many questions. Aurore was also very professional and responsive throughout the process. She helped keep everything moving and made sure I was updated along the way. Overall, I felt that the team was responsible and supportive. Dealing with an accident and an injury is already stressful, and having a legal team that communicates clearly and helps you understand the process makes a big difference.

I’m very disappointed with my experience with Sweeney Merrigan Law. I sent the requested information regarding my legal matter and was told I would receive a follow-up call. Despite providing the information, I never received a call back or any meaningful follow-up. Even if the firm decided not to take my case, I believe a prospective client deserves the courtesy of a response. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing, and I cannot recommend the firm based on the way my inquiry was handled.

I took a chance and entered a drawing for RedSox tickets with Sweeney and Merrigan Law. Assuming I’d be hit with email spam, I had nothing to lose. I received an email about a week later that I had won those tickets. While still skeptical, Jasmin assured me that this was the real deal. From the very first email, to the ticket transfer, to a care package for my wife and I from their office, to following up after the game. Not only was Jasmin professional, quick to respond and kind she paid attention to my interests. Something as small as me saying they had nice pens and her providing me with tons as well as a hand written note. It’s customer service like Jasmin’s that you don’t forget. Making someone feel heard. When looking for a lawyer or even or opportunity to win RedSox tickets do it, take the chance. With Merrigan and Sweeney you will always WIN. I did!

It is not always about the money it is about your personal injury representation. Some attorney's are worth more then the money they receive and that is why I am so happy I made the right choice first time around. If you need someone to stand up for you, you have, chosen well.
