Christopher helped me with my speeding ticket. Instead of me getting 4 violation points and huge speeding ticket he was able to convert it to "1Opening and closing vehicle doors" ticket. So, I paid lesser for ticket and got 0 violation points. Besides, Christopher was extremely responsive and transparent throughout the whole process. Highly recommend!

I don't even know where to begin to explain how grateful we are we hired Chris Pelli. My husband & i went to several consultations with different attorneys trying to find one that we felt that really understood our case, one who showed compassion, drive, professionalism, knowledge, & we were blessed to find Chris he treated with the utmost respect, he showed full interest in our case. At all times we felt very confident in our decision to hire Chris, we didn’t any promises, he simply shared his knowledge & we felt like he was the right person to take on our case! & time after time he showed us that we had made the right decision. I would absolutely recommend Chris to anyone who’s looking for an attorney in his field!

Ricardo looked into our case without mentioning anything about fees. He investigated with the courthouse and determined it was a clerical error, and obtained proof of the same. He refused to accept compensation for his troubles. There are still some great people in the world, who believe in paying it forward!!

We have had Ricardo Mauro as a lawyer since we first closed on our house in 2008. Due to his friendly and knowledgeable demeanor and his office assistant Sarah we have worked with him several times since. He really cares about people and their situations and is not all about the dollar. He has given us valuable advice for free when we needed it on a few occasions as well. Thank you Rick and team! We appreciate you!

Where do I begin? My experience with Mr. Mauro began by dealing with Sara, his paralegal. What a peach she is!!! She made me feel right at ease in dealing with my speeding ticket I got while on a vacation to Old Forge. I am a commercial driver so I could not afford to have points on my record. I did a search and found him on line. Not knowing who you are calling when you live in Virginia and having to deal with the legal system in NY can be daunting to say the least but Sara was so easy and confident in who she was and how she handled everything. So professional but yet caring. One hopes they never need legal assistance again but if the need arises...well.... I will just get to talk to Sara again ;>) Oh yes and by the way....no points on my record and a mild fine was the settlement of my heavy foot. Thanks Ricardo.

I am sharing my experience because of my satisfaction of contract preparation for a licensing agreement. As a co-owner of a small corporation, cost is always a factor in business decision. After calling around, we made our choice based on quoted cost and conveyence of confidence, understanding and capability. We relayed our needs and wants. In turn, we received an agreement that we felt was exactly what we wanted.
While executing licensing agreements with purchasers, we inevitably ran into an area of conflict. Refering to our agreement for clarification of a cure, we quickly recognized that we had "got our money worth". We were fully protected and the conflict was resolved.
I simply can not say enough. Great job, great price!

I am a private duty nurse, that was in desperate need of an knowledgeable attorney to help me review a contract that I was given by a new client's school district. Ms.Hamilton was very helpful from the moment she answered the phone. She was not only helpful but reviewed my contract in a timely manner, (which was greatly appreciate) She took her time while reviewing all of her suggestions which in turn made the contract more clear and concise. I love the fact she had pay pal as well, did not have to stop my already hectic schedule.

My husband and I had Pam to dissolve our LLC, she did everything and all from a simple 30 minute meeting. It was clean, concise, and easy on our part. Previously to her legal services, we also had Pam as our business coach. She was amazing in that aspect too. She reminded me of things I knew but didn't put into practice, she taught us many things we did not know and all in all, she helped us grow our small business. Pam was a council to me when I had some decisions to make, a coach, and a friend. I would highly recommend her!

I like when an attorney isn't for the court and represents the client the best of her ability. Mrs. Talerico did an excellent job with representing me in front of Judge Skane..thank you. If you need an attorney she is the best at what she does, and she will do her best. This attorney was court appointed, either way she is nice, does her job. Thank you!! Satisfied client.

I recently had the great pleasure to work with this attorney while I was selling a property I owned in Kirkland, NY. My real estate agent introduced him to me and I hired him to be in charge of the closing. I can say with no hesitation that everything went extremely smoothly and he was very responsive and accurate in every step of the process. I live in NJ and he provided me with timely updates and took care of all the details without my intervention. He works with an exceptional staff that is as precise and trustworthy as him. The whole experience was a joy. He is also very courteous and principled. I highly recommend this lawyer.

The effort, honesty and thoroughness Julie puts into her preparation demonstrates her passion for fighting the good fight. If her services are ever needed again, we won't think of calling anyone else.

I had some probation trouble and I hired tony laface. He was forgetful and acted as if he just didn't care. I went to jail and my friend was facing a major federal trial for marijuana who also had laface. Long story short the judge and da wouldn't listen to him or reason with him. My friend lost property and was sentenced to ten years with the help of laface. Needless to say I felt hopeless and doomed. I hired David and within 2 weeks I was free and the new charges where dismissed. I really cannot thank mr. longeretta enough of praise him enough. He was the only one who actually cared and had the power to do something with the mess I was in.
