Amanda is an incredible effective Attorney. I was pleased with how responsive she was to my needs. I was involved in a case that I could be face time in jail and she was diligent enough that my case was dismissed. Thank you Amanda!

Excellent Service and Wonderful Person

Amanda worked very closely with me on a recent Legal Issue in Connecticut. It was my first criminal offense of any kind, and Amanda worked diligently with me on all aspects of process from the beginning to end. I had my final court appearance this week, and do to her hard work, was allowed into a... program that will have it expunged from my record in time. She was thorough, put up with my litinany of questions and extracted a perfect resolution to a complex issue. I am njoyed working with her very much and feel she is an excellent lawyer and person.

Great Experiece

I had a great experience with Amanda Telesco. She was incredibly effective and efficient in my case. My driving infraction was completely handled. Amanda kept me in the loop throughout the duration of the case and responded to all of my questions in a timely manner. I would recommend her!

Global Entry Appeal

I retained the law offices of Mark Sherman and worked with Attorney Amanda Telesco for an appeal concerning a denial for Global Entry. I really appreciated the fact that the firm was clear with me that the odds of a successful appeal was around 30%. I decided to proceed and I found Amanda to be a c...onsummate professional. She was very knowledgeable and thorough in her approach. I’m happy to say I’ve received my approval and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Attorney Telesco again should I ever need legal advice and services in the future.

DUI arrest

I hired Amanda to represent me in a DUI arrest. To start, I found her to be very calming. I had never been arrested before, did not know what to expect and she walked me through the entire process. In court, she was absolutely brilliant. Because of her hard work and expert representation we were ...able to get my case dismissed. I hope never to need a criminal defense lawyer again, but if I do, I will certainly use Amanda
