trustworthy

I never had to file for lemon law before and Mr. Ruggerio and his staff were great in all aspects. I had a check in a total of 3 months. Mr Ruggerio and his staff never made me feel like I was not an important. If i ever had to do this experience again there is no question i would def use him again .... He was very proffesional and made me feel at ease with my case. Wonderfull lawyer and staff.

Attorney Ruggiero advised me wisely and in great detail when I approached my dealer about violating the Used Vehicle Warranty Law. When my dealer relinquished and reimbursed me for the cost of the vehicle, Attorney Ruggiero and his staff thanked me for contacting them and told me no charge.

The BEAST of all Lemon Lawyers

My case was a little more complex so it took a while But Mr. Ruggiero was a Beast on the case constantly on top of them left and right and i actually got more back then what i thought a lot more. HE WAS NOT A LIAR like most attorneys are HE was a personal friend and lawyer to me including His well t...rained Staff Especially A.J. his assisstant. I would recommend him to G.O.D if he had a car. This is the lawyer you would want for LEMON LAW. Thank you soo much Dan and AJ and wish you and your new family the best.

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | May 18

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have consulted with Dan Ruggiero on several debt settlement and bankruptcy matters throughout the past year. Most recently, I met with Dan to discuss specific strategies relating to foreclosure matters and credit card litigation. I am, to say the least, extremely impressed with Dan's knowledge of the law, and I would certainly recommend his services without hesitation. A true professional indeed."
