I cannot give enough praise to Lisa Goodman and her team for all their efforts on my behalf. I was treated with genuine concern for my well being after a serious injury. They communicated promptly during each stage of my claim and were wonderful to work with. I would never hesitate to hire them as legal representation. Thank you.

I slipped and fell on a cruise ship. I have never sued someone so I had no idea what to do. I reached out to this Incredible law firm who made me feel seen and heard. They took very good care of me and am very pleased with the outcome. Thank you for caring about me and my injuries!

Jack Hickey, Michelle Nunez, and team have a deep experienced maritime bench. The Hickey Law Firm is well known to the Cruise line industry. Defense counsel reached out to tell me "No Harm, No Foul!" We sent the passenger customer client to the Hickey Law Firm and within 24 months the harm was recognized, and the wrongdoer held accountable. Maritime work is what the law firm does and they do it exceptionally well. Equally important, the customer client is really glad and appreciative to have had someone hold her hand and have her back in what was a scary and unknown experience - being in a lawsuit.

I have had and witnessed so many bad experiences with attorneys that I went into this with the slightest of expectations. The attention to detail and dedication to my case was unbelievable.

Great service! They took my case when no one else would and they got me a great settlement. They assisted me with every step and every aspect of the process and gave me the feeling that I was a very important client! My attorney Sarah fought hard for me, and my case manager Thalia went above and beyond to make sure that I was being treated fairly and that I got the justice I deserved! Cannot recommend highly enough deal with confidence. I was very lucky that found them and if you do get the chance to have them represent you, know that you are in good hands. THE BEST!

Jack Hickey and his team are incredible. I am an Attorney in New Jersey but have sent several clients with serious cases to Jack over the years. He and his staff take great care of their clients. Thankfully, I asked Jack to take over a case where a father of a young child died while on vacation. Jack sued those we believed were negligent and obtained an excellent settlement for the family. His skill helped secure the child's financial future. Just as importantly, he brings compassionate care to his clients, listens to their needs and helps every step of the way. Jack's knowledge of maritime and cruise ship cases is surpassed by no one. I highly recommend that you trust Jack Hickey with any serious personal injury matter of any kind. John Burke

I am a past President of the Delaware Trial Lawyers Association with 43 years of personal injury/wrongful death practice. I have had DE clients who were in need of the highly specialized services of Jack's firm. One was a wrongful death case against a cruise line and the second was a serious brain injury involving a scuba diving accident. Jack and his outstanding lawyers and staff achieved fantastic results. My clients were quite happy. I would not hesitate to recommend Jack and The Hickey Law Firm - it was a real pleasure to work with such talented professionals.
