The $700,000 Settlement that Changed My Life
“As a retired NYPD Detective I have had the opportunity to become acquainted with many attorneys over the years but the level of service and personal attention provided by the law firm of Licatesi Law Group, LLP exceeded all expectations. After being involved in a rear end accident the firm was recommended to me and, from the initial meeting until the conclusion of the case, the attorneys and staff were considerate, informative and honest. I was kept informed of all developments in the case and the attorneys were available to answer any and all questions at all times. Through the efforts of Jennifer Ahfeld, Esq. and passionate representation of Anthony Licatesi, Esq., I received the best possible settlement for my family.”

Wells Fargo Bank v Mitchell
Our firm represents the defendant homeowners Mitchell. In this matter, Wells Fargo sought a summary judgment in this residential mortgage foreclosure action which was denied by the court. Wells Fargo commenced this action in 2006 and our law firm was retained in 2014. At that time, we were successful and served an answer to the complaint in which we denied that Wells Fargo was entitled to a judgment. In this decision, the Court found that Wells Fargo failed to evidence its ability to establish standing or that it had standing to commence the action in 2006. The preservation and protection of our clients’ civil rights when opposing a financial institution is an achievable goal in the law firm of Licatesi Law Group, LLP
