Testimonials from Real People

Hear from Clients in Their Own Words
    "Best Attorney"
    DeGiacomo was the most honest, informative, and humble attorney I have ever met and I recommend him to any person in trouble. He knows what he is talking about!
    - Former Client
    "James treated me with respect and kindness from day one"
    What I found refreshing was that James had a realistic and positive attitude from the beginning. His warmhearted professionalism made me more at ease. James got the best outcome for my 2nd DUI case. I left the courthouse knowing that he had a beneficial impact on my case. I recommend Attorney De Giacomo to anyone who wants the best of the best.
    - EO
    "Highly recommended"
    James was extremely professional, very informative, and most importantly he delivered! I was looking at two felony charges and James was able to get me a deal where the charges will be dismissed as long as I stay out of trouble for a year. Guilty felony charges make getting a job impossible so I’m grateful for his services and would call him again if needed. I highly recommend to use James for your legal issues.
    - Marc F
    "Confident & Reliable"
    Jim took over my case after my 1st attorney had to drop it. Jim is very knowledgeable, he walked me through the steps of the trial process and answered all my questions right away plus explained why certain information wasn’t needed. The trial was postponed twice due to the pandemic but Jim was still in constant communication. Thank you!
