As a Pentagon responder, I spent decades excluded from the World Trade Center Health Program because of a technical loophole. When I met Matt Baione, he became not only my attorney but my partner in the long effort to fix that injustice. Together, we worked on a legislative and press advocacy campaign to close the gap in the law that prevented Pentagon responders like me from getting the care we needed.
Once the law was changed, Matt guided me through WTCHP enrollment and helped me finally get access to doctors who understood 9/11 exposures and the conditions that come with them. After years of being misdiagnosed and dismissed by physicians unfamiliar with 9/11 illnesses, I finally received real answers and effective treatment.
Matt then represented me personally at my VCF hearing and secured my award. His professionalism, integrity, and commitment have been exceptional at every step. After decades of struggling, I finally received both the medical support and the recognition I should have always been entitled to — and that is directly because of Matt’s work. I recommend him and his firm with the highest confidence.
The result is that I finally got the treatment I needed, and my symptoms are improving.
Matt stepped into this matter just as I was going to give up. He was tenacious. He was knowledgeable. He was energetic. He was relentless. The outcome was better than I had hoped. You cannot go wrong with Matt Baione as your counsel.
