My wife hired Tescano when she sponsored me and because of him I am here in the U.S. He really helped my immigration case and then I hired him for my citizenship because they were denying my case but, Toscano solved my case and because of him I got my citizenship. I am very thankful for his help. I would definitely recommend him to everyone.

David's kindness and understanding made me feel very comfortable to discuss my issues and needs very openly with him, and in return, he provided his legal knowledge and action to help sort out my dilemma. With his service, my case was resolved with ease, and sooner than I anticipated. Unlike other attorneys, he always remembered to follow up, give me updates, and answer any of my concerns within a reasonable time, if not immediately.
Anyone who is serious about getting their legal issues in order, or may only need legal advice, you must reach out to David. Highly recommended!

Words cannot express our gratitude to David and Marks Team for all their help in getting our son out of a tough situation. David worked tirelessly to get the best deal for our family throughout this ordeal. He explained all options and answered all our questions even on weekends. He made a first potential offer from the Prosecutors Office of 50 month State sentence to a plea with no time. Professionalism and Communication would be his best attributes.

I would first like to say thank you to everyone apart of the law firm for helping me. Greg Jones was the attorney who handled my case initially who was great! However, Jack stepped in and finished the job which was work related. I just want to say “Jack is the man” he is very professional, very knowledgeable, and will take good care of you. I highly recommend.

Jack Arseneault might very well be one of the best attorneys in the USA, however he is by far a much better person then he is an attorney.
He has been my attorney for over 25 years and not only has his counseling been amazing, but his care for the well being of myself and my family has gone and continues to go above what anyone would expect from their attorney.
Jack ALWAYS put my needs and my families needs before his own and advised based on what was best for us as opposed to what would make him the most money.
Aside from my wife, Jack may very well be the only person in my life that I truly trust and I am honored and privileged to not only call him my attorney, but more importantly one of my best friends.

I started working with Mr. Grasso back in 2018. I was looking at my second DUI, which meant a year loss of license and a loss of my job. Michael Grasso was more than a hired attorney, rather a friend and advocate for me and my future. He took my case from the Municipal court level, through the Superior, Appellate and eventually the top court in the land- The Supreme Court. And we won! This was done for 2 separate DWI convictions in 2 separate courts, something unheard of. In those 6 years, Mike gave me reassurance, confidence, and guidance- not something I was even expecting. I learned a lot from the man who gave me a clean slate in life. Thanks to him I'll be able to travel with my girlfriend and her family to Canada now that my record is completely clean. I've regained my freedom thanks to his savvy and determination. The best decision I made was trusting Mike to look out for my best interest. I can't thank him enough and am proud to call myself his friend.

Keith Oliver is an excellent lawyer who cares for his clients. As soon as I placed a request online for some questions about my case, he immediately texted me back while I was at work during my nightshift and we had a conversation on what to expect going forward. Right there I knew that he was the right lawyer for the job. He could of just waited until the next day or two to call me back, yet because of his responsiveness to my situation, I hired him. He stuck by my side through the long drawn out process which was out of our control. Whether your situation is big or small, Keith will fight tooth and nail for you. His straight to the point attitude and aggressive nature will ease your mind knowing that you hired the right lawyer for your particular situation. Give him a chance and call him, you won't be disappointed. Keith is a great lawyer. He's my super lawyer! Google him and you will see his background of accomplishments and achievements. Hopefully I won't get into a situation like this again, but if I do you are number one on my contact list. Thanks for being by my side for two and a half years. Until next time my freind and best wishes for success at your firm.

Maria Noto is a knowledgeable, patient and responsive attorney. She worked with me several years ago to resolve both criminal and civil charges It was a lengthy process and took tremendous skill to achieve what she did for me. Ms Noto knew exactly what to do, and told me the anticipated outcome at our very first consultation. Her office answers all communications timely and Maria has exceptional listening skills. Ms Noto is well know in the inner circles of the courts, for her professionalism and tenacity. Since our first engagement I always call Ms Noto first with any legal issues, and have engaged her or her colleagues several times.

Alan is a master of the art of law, is extremely thorough and meticulous to every detail. He speaks softly but carries a big stick. It is obvious that he is given a great deal of respect in the court room. I knew I was in the best of hands from the get go. For such matters, you need the very best. Alan earned my complete trust. There are a great deal of firms out there with many partners, and associates. Alan is a solo guy, so you know your case is getting his personal attention. As an example, he was always accessible by phone or text. I am grateful for everything he did for me.

We were clients of the law offices of Robert J. DeGroot, with Robert DeGroot and Oleg Nekritin as our attorneys.
We would like to take this opportunity to tell you what an outstanding job that they did for us in our complex, contentious, and from what many other experts have said, very difficult custody case.
From what we have learned, when child custody is being disputed, missteps can be easy to make and are difficult to reverse. For me, a father, to have succeeded, it was essential that smart decisions be made early in the case. The DeGroot team gave us extraordinary counsel from the onset, and gave us a solid understanding of the factors that Family Court Judges consider when determining custody. The smart decisions were made because of these exemplary attorneys.
When fighting for our family, we could only select the best, the attorneys at Robert J. DeGroot. They guided us through all flavors of maneuverings from opposing counsel - all the while making sure best interests of my child were served.
Not only were these two individual’s complete professionals in their handling of our case, but they both went beyond what we could ever have hoped for. To us they are the meaning behind “For the People.” We consider Bob and Oleg friends of our family for life.

My ex wife accused me of following her and stalking her. De Groot and staff were able through traffic reconstruction and cell phone records demonstrate that it was she who was following me. I was found not guilty and can see my kids once more.

Mr. DeGroot and his firm were thorough, efficient and most importantly effective in presenting my defense. He and his team explored all potential avenues and presented a qualified case to the court. The result was a reduced penalty and dismissal of some charges. Mr. DeGroot was recognized and well respected by the South Orange Court. I would definitely recommend Mr. DeGroot and his Law Firm to my family and friends.

I received a Reckless Driving 5-point ticket in a Camden County town. Officer didn't like the way I changed lanes. We pleaded down to Unsafe Driving (Which is a larger fine but no points and no recurring insurance charges). Admittedly it had been 19 years since my last traffic violation, which I'm sure helped the judges decision... but stepping down from 5 points to no points is a huge win regardless of the circumstances (in my mind). Never had to go to a trial with officer. Simply negotiated with prosecutor at initial hearing, and judge agreed.

Mr. Traub was successful in obtaining a dismissal for my careless driving ticket. He graciously provided extensive advice (on several occasions) even prior to his retention, and it is my belief that he sincerely cared about the outcome of my case. He is very professional, knowledgeable, accessible and has a wonderful personality. It was truly a pleasure to have him represent me, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking a positive result.

From very beginning, Kevin was always upfront with me. When he first took on my case, I knew right away that he was the right attorney for me. I knew this because in the very first meeting, after reviewing the charges and the options on the table were grim, he told me the truth and what my expectations should be. He didn't sugar coat it, but on the same token, he also told me that its still early and he would do absolutely everything he could to help me. And he did! He gave me a list of things I needed to do right away to start helping my case and checked on me regularly to make sure I was doing them. Many of those things I believe helped the judge make her decision. But most importantly, Kevin found that the evidence the State Police claimed to have was inaccurately measured in their favor. And so he hired an expert in the field we needed, and because of that the State Police were forced to correct the details of the charges brought against me. (The State Police rounded up the quantities in order to push my charges into a Class 1 Felony)
Everything Kevin did for me was by the book. He was early to every meeting and court appearance. He answered every call , text and email. And on top of that, he continued to call me and check up on me throughout my entire diversion program (2+ years) and further. I truly believe that Kevin Buchan is the reason that I was able to be with my wife for the birth of our first born. We followed his instincts and advice, and managed to turn was was looking to be an unfairly long sentence, into a diversion program that let me be with my family. To this day I am eternally grateful for what you did for me and my family.
Thank you Kevin

Chris, who was my second lawyer on my case. I can't stress enough how professional and caring he was throughout the entire process.
Chris not only handled my case with expertise and diligence, but he also took the time to communicate with my family when I wasn't able to. This level of care and consideration truly set him apart from any other lawyer I have worked with in the past.
I can confidently say that Chris went above and beyond what is expected of a lawyer, he is honest, straightforward, and genuinely cares about your well-being.

This team are incredible. I had MAJOR fear and anxiety regarding my case which held severe consequences without representation. They walked me through it throughout its duration basically holding my hand. They took my calls, answered my myriad questions. Responded almost immediately EVERY time I had question or concern. Alexis Fox my point of contact and liaison to My attorney was warm, empathetic and truly concerned with my well being during a difficult time. William (Bill) Wachowski, my attorney offered unparalleled service, reassurance, legal advice and representation. He did everything he said he would do. My two felony charges were disposed as municipal disorderly offenses.
Mind you, I have and never had a criminal record but bc of him and his team my name and unblemished record remain intact. I can't say enough for the care, humanity and attention they gave me. I could have been in jail for 10-20 years. Today, I'm on my way home with a small fine and my sanity.
The team at Jonathan Marshall law firm couldn't come with a higher recommendation. Special thank you to ALEXIS FOX AND WILLIAM WACHOWSKI.
Thank you. I'm truly indebted.

Mattew Dory, Esq was an excellent lawyer, he represented me in my first case for a speeding ticket on my probationary license. My outcome was much better than expected. Therefore, when I received a second offense I returned to this good firm for representation.
Michael Quinn, Esq represented me on my second offense and guided me through upgrading to my regular license without losing my motorcycle endorsement. He was honest and very helpful throughout the process.
Both attorneys advised me to take a driver's safety course to reduce points on my license. I have since learned to slow down as a third offense would not make me so lucky.
Thank you for your representation.

They assist in every phase of the legal process, from investigation to trial and appeals, ensuring their clients' rights are protected.
If you’re facing federal criminal charges, a federal crime lawyer can provide the necessary defense and expertise to navigate the complexities of federal law and achieve the best possible outcome.
When Should I Hire a Federal Crime Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a federal crime lawyer in any situation where you are under investigation or have been charged with a federal crime. Key scenarios include:
- Charged with a federal crime: If you’ve been charged with a federal offense, such as drug trafficking, wire fraud, money laundering, or conspiracy, hiring a federal crime lawyer is essential to ensure your defense is tailored to federal court procedures and laws.
- Target of a federal investigation: If you are being investigated by federal agencies like the FBI, DEA, ATF, or IRS, it’s crucial to retain a lawyer early on. A lawyer can help you avoid self-incrimination and build a defense strategy to counter the investigation.
- White-collar crimes: If you’ve been accused of federal white-collar crimes such as securities fraud, embezzlement, or insider trading, a lawyer can help defend you against charges brought by federal prosecutors and regulatory agencies like the SEC.
- Drug-related charges: If you’re facing federal drug charges, such as possession, distribution, or trafficking of controlled substances, a lawyer can represent you in federal court and negotiate plea deals or challenge the prosecution’s case.
- Gun-related offenses: If you’ve been charged with federal gun crimes, including illegal possession, trafficking, or using a firearm during a violent crime, a federal crime lawyer can help defend against harsh federal penalties.
- Immigration-related crimes: Federal charges involving immigration violations, such as human trafficking, smuggling, or illegal re-entry after deportation, require specialized legal knowledge of both federal criminal law and immigration law.
- Appeals: If you’ve been convicted of a federal crime and are seeking to appeal the conviction or sentence, a federal crime lawyer can assist with the appeals process, focusing on legal errors or issues that may have occurred during the trial.
Hiring a lawyer as soon as you know you are under investigation or charged with a federal crime gives you the best chance of protecting your rights and building a strong defense.

Ensure the lawyer has extensive experience handling federal criminal cases, particularly those similar to yours, such as drug trafficking, white-collar crimes, or gun violations. -
