We have used Paul Lauto many times, as has our family and friends. No one has ever been disappointed. He is committed and dependable. You don't have to wait until he "gets around" to calling you, he calls you back promptly if you have a question or just need to talk to him. I have never met a more honest and professional person. We recommend him to anyone who has a need for his services. Mr. Lauto has helped us with car accidents, caused by a drunk driver and a bad fall I had years ago. He also handled two car accidents a friend of ours had, and she was completely satisfied, as were we.

I've consulted with Mr. Lauto on various legal issues and matters for many years. He always takes the time to speak with me and returns calls quickly if he is unavailable. I appreciate the fact that he fully explain things so I can understand the full legal impact of my decisions. I have always found him to be well versed and knowledgeable in the areas of law that impact most of us on a daily basis. Most importantly, I found him to be honest and concerned with providing quality representation. I would, and have, recommend Mr. Lauto to anyone who wants a competent attorney who cares about you.

I have used Tim Davies’ legal services for many years now. Tim helped plan and create my dad's will and estate. He advised us about everything we needed to know to prepare for the future. When my dad passed, everything we had to do, including the sale of his condo, went smooth and effortless because of his great planning. I highly recommend Tim’s services - not only because of his vast legal knowledge, but also because he is a very caring person.

I used Doug for several years concerning issues revolving around my son’s disability and the school district’s lack of common sense and Very aggressive poor response to my son and his needs. I was very happy and satisfied with not only with Doug’s legal expertise in representing my son but was grateful for his personality and honest assessment throughout all of it. I typically don’t like lawyers and certainly never trust them but dare I say it??? You can trust this guy. He really is exceptional at what he does.

I had Steven j wilutis in 1992. I went to trial and was sentenced to 10 years. This lawyer got 7,000 dollars from my parents and did not help me at my trial. I saw a article in the newspaper that he was working with the judge he was just out to get money. I'm trying to get my life back and the 7,000 dollars to. I would like to talk to him. Thanks for you're time Steven Destefano.

Mr Wilutis is not only a great attorney, he's a great person. I was charge with felony assault after I had a discussion with person"s that stole items from where my son resided when they broke into his house. After explaining my situation Mr Wilutis my sure that I could not be question by investigators and after arranging voluntary surrender that I would be release without bail. Mr Wilutis handle everything for me without having to go to court and got me a plea bargain of disorderly conduct.
I also used him for my son, who was falsely accused of drag racing, and numerous other violations and had all summons dismissed. His vast knowledge of law is unsurpassed.
