I met Justin in the courthouse asking for directions and weeks later found myself tirelessly seeking a criminal defense attorney for my caregiver. He is just as nice and helpful when you meet him as he was when I had no idea who he was when I asked for directions. Justin goes out of his way, telling you the truth, not what you want to hear and will fight to achieve the goal you are seeking. He is not only Erie’s top Criminal Justice Attorney but a caring concerned man who isn’t afraid to go up against anyone, cities, anyone who uses Justin can be assured he will fight for you with his extensive knowledge of the law, he’s been a former prosecutor, knows all the court system and will definitely put you at ease. You never can predict the outcome of any situation, but Justin will guide you through the most scary time in your family’s life like a friend, not just someone who called his office, only to find out his webpage had been spoofed and directed my call to another law office. He was able to get information about his profile and how I was tricked into thinking he was “never available”, when he actually answers his own phone, or has a service answe his calls and he returns his calls very quickly. I won’t use any other attorney in Erie, thank you Justin your one great attorney in a town that had tons of attorneys but nobody calls back, well he does and meets you, he had me in his office in less than 24 hours after our phone conversation and had already found the case on the docket, studied it, and had a plan of action ready when I met with him at his office for a free consultation! Don’t go into court without consulting Justin Pangehtti!

Justin is outstanding in his understanding of criminal cases in Erie and how to best handle them. My case involved 2 misdemeanors and a summary offense that happened during a medical episode where I had no idea of what I was doing. Justin looked at the 100+ pages of medical information I provided him and he explained that although that was the circumstance the incident still happened. Although I was never physically arrested charges were filed. While I was ready to have doctors come to testify, Justin reassured me that was the “Hail Mary” if we needed it. The day of the preliminary hearing Justin spoke to the officer beforehand and I don’t believe he mentioned the medical issue but he and the officer agreed that I have a clean history so the incident was reduced to the lowest summary offense. Justin also spoke with the Judge and the lowest possible fine was imposed. Justin’s preliminary work, history in the Erie criminals courts and most importantly his communication with me throughout the process has made me completely dismiss the notion that lawyers are evil. I never in my life would have thought I would need a criminal lawyer, but unfortunate circumstance can happen to anyone. If you find yourself in one of these circumstances do yourself a favor and talk with Justin.

Justin represented me recently and I found him to be honest and straight forward. He treated me with dignity and respect and was very supportive. He believes in building positive relationships with clients as well as everyone in the court system. He is able to use these relationships to achieve good outcomes for his clients. He is smart, kind and non judgmental, he helped me through a very difficult time. I would highly recommend Justin without reservation. He is not only a great lawyer but also a wonderful person.

I retained Attorney Panighetti to represent me in a criminal case. It was an extremely frightening time in my life. Because of Justin's preparation, knowledge of the law and his presentation on my behalf we had the more serious charge dropped. I was very happy with the outcome of my hearing and the professional manner in which it was handled. Thank you Attorney Panighetti for representing me with respect and compassion.

So far so good very pleased . First lawyer I talked to said "good luck with that" Justin has guided me through everything ! Extremely responsive . Last attorney I had , I had to actually schedule a hearing or show up at his office to get a response outta him . And when I seen that his office is in with some of the best attorneys in the state , I was extremely happy . That says something right there !

I hired Justin Panighetti for my custody case. He is very knowledgeable and helped me through the entire process. Every phone call and email I made to him was returned very quickly. He was always there to answer my questions and help with whatever I needed related to my case. I am very thankful for Justin and do not believe I would of had the same outcome without him. I would highly recommend him with any case!

I retained Attorney Panighetti for a child custody case. First off, he is one of the most knowledgable attorneys in the area and is very well rounded. I have personally watched him prosecute for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as well as defend clients in the court room. He is an expert in his field. He gave me a honest assessment of my custody case and did not procrastinate when it came to meeting with me about the case as other attorneys have done in the past. He was very prepared when it came time to enter the courtroom and so was I thanks to him. The outcome of the case was in our favor due to his preparation, knowledge of the laws, and ability to present his case in a professional and expert manner.
