Personal Injury Law

Marcus refuses to define himself by money and he will not define his law firm by money either. Having knocked on death's door following a serious personal injury, Marcus knows that enjoyment of life is priceless. If you ask his seriously injured clients if they would trade the millions of dollars they have received, after being represented by the Spagnoletti Law Firm, to live the remainder of their lives in the condition that they were in on the day prior to their injuries, they all would say "YES"! It is for this reason that the number one priority at Spagnoletti Law Firm is getting you the best medical treatment we can possibly find. As Marcus learned during his treatment, it is not how you fall but how you get up. He will assist you in life in every way he possibly can, beyond simply navigating the legal minefield that awaits you. We are fortunate to live in a society that provides the opportunity to hold wrongdoers accountable. Those who have committed wrongful acts must pay for past and future medical care and loss of livelihood. Marcus knows how to hold negligent parties accountable, and he does it well. He has done it in state and federal courts across the country and all over the globe. Marcus is well experienced in not only shepherding his clients through the loss of enjoyment of life due to personal injury, but also through commercial and transactional matters.

He has worked on matters in five of the seven continents and sees the world through an ecumenical lens. He invites the opportunity to learn about new places and people because he enjoys working to resolve his clients’ problems. If you would like to talk about specific matters that Marcus has handled, come by and speak with him. He does not feel the need to list them all in this forum. When you do ask him, he is likely to give you the numbers of opposing attorneys and his competitors and encourage you to call them to inquire about his ability. He knows the truth. We who labor here, in this great world, seek the truth. He invites you to seek it because he knows he will ultimately see you again.
