ENDORSEMENTS

“Dear Mike: I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest thanks and appreciation to you and all your staff. I could not have asked for a better resolution to my case with the MTA Police. I would like to thank Eva for her tireless efforts in assisting me. Eva came to my home on several times when I could not walk. She also worked to secure evidence and much more. You and Eva both treated me like a family member. My calls were always returned in minutes and when I was concerned, you always reassured me with facts.
Mike, time and time again the MTA attempted to have my case thrown out, but you did not back down. You were patient and calm. I was amazed how time after time you fought back and won! Your experience and knowledge in FELA law was demonstrated and proven to be unsurpassed. I am having my second surgery in March and am worry free because of you resolving my case. I thank you once again and will never forget you and my friends at your firm.” Regards, MTA Police.

“Michael Flynn in Garden City is top notch in his field and a great guy to work with who won’t steal your client.  He has a number of cases of first impression to his credit and recently won an extremely important case in this field at the US Supreme Court. He is creative, well prepared, scholarly yet down to earth.” Victor Fusco, Managing Partner at Fusco, Bradenstein & Rada, PC

“Thank you Mr. Flynn.  Without you fighting for me N.J. Transit would have rail roaded me!”  Ronald Reed

“Thank you Eva.  I know a trial assistant is the back bone of every great law firm.” Ronald Reed

“Mr. Flynn, Thanks a million, I couldn’t have done it without you!”  Deborah Layssard

“I never got a chance to thank you for everything you’ve done. You certainly kept on top of things and you did your homework – but WOW! I never thought it would feel this great to win!  You never gave us false hope – you always said it like it was… but you have to admit, you are really good.  And on your birthday no less. I will never forget your 38th, I can tell you that.”  Jackie Ezovski

“Just can’t thank you enough!” Samuel Saunders, Jr.

“I would like to take this time to thank you for the way you helped me recover my funds from Metro-North.  Please extend my best and sincere regards to Eva who was always so very helpful whenever I called your office. You should be very proud of her. So once again, thank you very much for all you and your staff have done for me.” Ray O’Hara

“I would like to take this opportunity to return my thanks to you and your staff for the work you did in my case.  I am very thankful for what I received.  May the good Lord continue to bless you.  Thanks.”  Richard Galloway

“Once again I’d like to thank you for all your work and support in my case.  You made a difficult situation much more tolerable by being a friend before anything.  That is something you don’t often find in any aspect of life. I’ll always be appreciative.”   Delores Galdi

“I thank you sincerely for the great job you did with the Transit Authority. It was amazingly quick and easy. If I ever find myself in a similar situation, there is no doubt who I’ll call.  I’ll also be recommending you highly! Thanks again.” Craig Sirianni.

“My departure from the court room, the ride in the taxi, seemed like the first day of the rest of my life, again.  Thank you for stepping in with your faith, belief and most of all persistence. Yes, I know, it's your job.  It's clear to see that when you believe in someone, your fight is strong. Your honesty and guidance, through the sharpest turn in my life, stand alone.  Your eyes often told me you were on my side, not on your own… I repeat to you again, Thank you! And remember, Danielle will know who believed, and fought for her. Your card will remain in my wallet, your kindness in my pocket. Thank you so very much.  My respects and thanks to Eva, her devotion and hard work don’t go unnoticed!” Victoria
