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.

Very helpful, very personable

Mr. Vella spoke with confidence and assured me that he would be able to help me out of the situation I was in. I had violated the terms of my conditionary discharge for a first time offense of marijuana possession by testing positive for marijuana. A minor crime considering the punishments I was faci...ng, before speaking to him, I was worried of losing my license or facing actual probation. Rather, Mr. Vella eased my anxiety, spoke to me on a human to human level, and managed to get me re-entered into the program for a simple three months more. He was also very reasonable with his payment options. I'm very satisfied with his service and would recommend him to anyone I know looking for help.

My experience

On May 5th I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Pasquale Vella. I was impressed by his work with a client in court that day and asked for his assistance on my case. He offered me his card and asked me if I would speak with him outside to discuss my case. Within moments I felt relieved and more confident... about my case. Mr. Vella made the process of my case very simple and considerably less stressful for me. He answered any questions I had durning my case. He followed through on exactly what he had told me he would accomplish and how my case would play out. I was very pleased with the results of my case and would recommend his services.

SO LUCKY TO HAVE MET PAT

When my family was put in a difficult situation lawfully, we went to Garces and Grabler and were assigned the criminal lawyer, Pat. Not knowing him, we weren't sure if he would take the time to get to know us and handle our case with care. I have to say that of all the lawyers I have ever had to work... with, Pat is one of THE BEST, THE FINEST, and THE MOST CARING LAWYERS out there. WE truly feel blessed to have had Pat who, was the first person who advised us to not give up, and encouraged me to have confidence and hope that we could get the case dismissed, as it was. Pat, you truly are a gem, a valuable person, working to help people when things have taken a wrong turn in their life. Thank you for all of your positive words and dedication to our case.
