I was injured when a defective window fell on my hand. I sent an email to Tolmage Peskin Harris & Falick, explained my situation and I immediately got a return from them. Christopher Seleski answered my all questions, dealt with my case very professionally and helped me throughout the entire process. I’m glad that he represented me and won the case. I will contact him again if I needed in the future and I will recommend him for everyone.

Christopher S. came recommended to me by another lawyer. He assisted me with a simple personal injury issue. He was very informative and pointed me in the right direction to handle the matter. He was quick and efficient, did not wast either of our time. Regardless of how simple my issue was he spent the necessary time with me and followed up to make sure all was well. Nice guy too!

I'm so pleased I decided to work with Christopher Seleski when I was injured in an accident six months ago. I'd asked for a referral for a lawyer from several colleagues and many of them recommended Chris to me right away, and after meeting with him I knew I had made the right choice. He made me feel very comfortable with understanding any action that needed to take place, and talked me through every step with clarity and with care. Throughout the course of working together he was always prompt in responding my e-mails, or even calling me to explain in more detail anything complicated or important. Without him I would have felt totally lost, and instead I was able to take care of my legal needs adequately and feeling supported and educated. I would highly recommend Christopher Seleski to friends or colleagues who were in need of a knowledgable and very competent personal injury lawyer.

As a fellow attorney, I have referred several clients to Mr. Seleski and on all referrals, the response is always 100%. Those referred complemented Mr. Seleski on his patience, humility, knowledge and professionalism in addressing matter on their behalf.

I consulted with Christopher Seleski a couple of months ago after I was attacked by a dog. I and called him the same day, per a referral from a friend. Chris was responsive right away (even though it was a weekend) and assured me that he’d do all he could to guide me in the right direction and support me as needed. His level of expertise, knowledge, confidence and compassion were evident right from the beginning. It was a huge relief to know he was there for me, especially since I was dealing with pain and trauma after the incident. While my accident didn’t actually warrant a lawsuit, Chris guided me step by step through the matter and took the time to give me solid, in-depth advice, in terms of dealing with the dog owners, insurance claims, and what would be needed to pursue a lawsuit. I have referred two other people who were injured in an accident since meeting Chris and highly recommend him to anyone who is seeking an ethical, skilled and reliable personal injury lawyer.

Christopher was an absolute professional when it came to my case after being struck by a vehicle. He showed genuine concern and helped out in every conversation and visit we had. In the end, he worked to ensure I received a worthy settlement amount. I would highly reccomend his services to anyone needing a lawyer to handle their case.

Christopher seleski represented me in a case that lingered for 4 years with three different attorney, most fo the. Wasted money , entertained me and put me in position where i had no choice but to hire some one . Upon review of my case chris told layed out stratergy and informed its 50/50 but given the circumstance and fact that my case was almost lost. I was in no psition to fight with . Christopher and his associates took this as a challenge , did lots of research and acted step by step with their plan in court of law , negotiation. One my biggest headche was settled in just four months instead of 4 years. I will never go look for an attorney because i found one who works with a passion. They were also flexible on payment because of my situation. I cant thank them enough.
