The Best

Contacting Pasquale Vella when i had gotten a DUI in 2016 was one of my best decisions. He had gotten all my other tickets tossed however I had to take responsibility for the DUI. He is down to earth, understanding and never judges you for anything! I am comfortable coming to him for any of my legal ...needs! I highly recommend this man & believes he has the best interest for his customers!

That’s what I call a good lawyer!

About a year ago due to some personal problems one night I managed to get myself a speeding ticket, a reckless driving ticket, a DUI, a refusing BAC and few more tickets. This was the first time of my life that I got myself in trouble with law and it was really bad. Next morning of my arrest I knew I... was in deep trouble this was going to affect my life deeply. I started to plan damage control and start consult some attorneys, after few consultations I’ve met Mr. Vella and I hired him on the spot without any hesitation, he was the only one understood my situation and work with me to get the less damage possible by defending me. And he did not disappoint me, he managed to prolong my cases to give me enough time to prepare my self to pay for my behavior, and he got me out with the less damage possible. Anyone I’ve talked to told me I was looking minimum 12 months suspension but he managed to get me out with 90 days DUI suspension and drop everything else. Thanks to him I was able to get back on my feet and continue my life normally.

Got me out of 2 DWIs!

About six months ago I managed to receive two DWIs in one week. I prepared to lose my license for a year or more, and was certain that there was no way out of these charges. Pasquale was able to get my first DWI reduced to a reckless driving charge and the second DWI reduced to talking on a cell ph...one and unable to provide proper insurance. Pasquale is truly an amazing lawyer and I highly recommend him. I can confidently say that I would not have beat either DWI without the knowledge and professionalism of Pasquale.

Absolutely Amazing Lawyer

I was very lucky to have been referred to Pasquale last year. Unfortunately, some struggles I faced led me to find myself in trouble, with multiple arrest and pretty serious motor vehicle violations/DWIs. I truly believed that the life I had spent years building with my wife was over, until meeting... Pasquale. On our first meeting I instantly knew I was in the right hands. His professionalism, experience and positivity allowed me to put my full trust in him. Pasquale has put many hours and much effort into providing the best outcome for me. With a few cases already closed, I am fortunate enough to be left with a conditional discharge, no lengthy loss of license or DWI charges and minor fines. I am very confident that Pasquale will continue to put in the same effort, with similar results, for my remaining cases. I highly recommend Pasquale to anyone looking for a down to earth, loyal and trustworthy attorney with a deep knowledge of the system.

Lawyer

Pasquale has been nothing but completely amazing and helpful through this whole process that I am going through. He is currently handling my DUI case and I am 100% satisfied with the way he has helped me and my case! Whenever I have any question I am able to call him and wether he is in or not he alw...ays makes sure to contact me back asap. I spoke to a few different lawyers before I actually made my decision and I'm very happy I chose him to represent me. His price was very reasonable and from what I have seen he is working very hard to get me the best possible sentence that I can receive. I would recommend him any day to anyone! Such a great man! And an amazing lawyer.
