Meet Our Team of St. Petersburg Personal Injury Attorneys

At Battaglia, Ross, Dicus & McQuaid, PA, we have helped victims recover compensation for over 60 years. There is not another law firm in St. Petersburg with such a history of success.

Our clients trust us and we go to great lengths to make sure that they are pleased with our legal help.

History:

Our firm was founded in 1958 by Anthony S. Battaglia, who was a groundbreaker in the legal community. Mr. Battaglia set an example for our personal injury attorneys to follow over the decades. He was aggressive, always prepared, and never afraid of a fight. The firm’s reputation for excellence is well-known across the area. In fact, we have been ranked by US News & World Report at a Tier 1 law firm (highest rating possible) for decades. Few firms, if any, can say the same.

Our team of personal injury attorneys has continued to carry the banner of excellence and compassion. Sean McQuaid, Jonathon Douglas, and Aubrey Dicus have followed in the footsteps of Mr. Battaglia. Each attorney has established himself at a premier level in the legal community. There is simply no team of personal injury attorneys in St. Petersburg with the level of legal talent, experience, and resources that they can bring to a case. Most importantly, our lawyers care about their clients. Our attorneys have built their reputations by helping people. You will not find us on buses, on billboards, on the radio, or on television because we strive to get to know our clients and give everyone personalized attention. If you have been injured in St. Petersburg or the Tampa Bay area, please contact us to learn more about what we may be able to do for you and your family.
