About Us

About Berlingieri Law, PLLC

Justice is supposed to be equal for everyone. That’s the ideal, but we see all too many cases where justice seems dependent on who can pay top dollar for good legal counsel. Berlingieri Law, PLLC was founded to give ordinary people reasonable access to quality lawyers who have experience and know what it takes to win employment law cases. 

We do that by working on contingency-the only way we get paid is if we get you a settlement. From the moment you come to our office, our interests are aligned, and we’re working towards the same goal.

    "Excellent service"

    Chris was a great attorney. I got fired from my job for refusing a mandatory medical procedure [COVID-19 Vaccine]. He was on my side the whole time. He fought hard for me and gave me updates along the way to keep me informed. I was more than happy with his service and the outcome. I strongly recommend him.

    - Shaun
    "Felt Safe & Protected"
    Chris is a wonderful listener who took a personal interest in the legal challenges I faced. He fearlessly fought against the overwhelming overreach in demands by a former employer.
    - Christine R.
    "Bilingual Lawyer"
    I have nothing but good words to say about Mr. Berlingieri. He was more helpful, knowledgeable and attentive to all of my concerns and needs with all aspects of the law that I needed an attorney for.
    - Nicole
    "Lawyer Warrior, Warrior Lawyer"
    I hired the legal services of Christopher after consulting with other lawyers and after having paid another lawyer. Minutes into a conversation with Christopher, I knew he was the lawyer that I needed, wanted and must have for my case.
    - Kristopher
    "Great, Professional & Friendly"
    I was assured by a different attorney that I would likely never find someone so specialized to handle my situation. Chris dealt with my specialized issue in a prompt, professional way.
    - Aja
    "Couldn't Be Better"
    Personable, professional and engaged in our discussion, I sensed a good vibe about him and gave him my full trust and leeway to handle this issue, and he didn't let me down.
    - William
    "Very Satisfied"
    Mr Berlingieri was very patient, diligent, and flexible when working with me. He explained every part of the process of my legal action thoroughly without being condescending.
    - Adrienne
    "Amazing Lawyer"
    Attorney Berlingieri answered my inquiry from a legal website. I knew from the first correspondence with him I had found the PERFECT lawyer to represent me in my unemployment case.
