One of the Best

I hired Mr. Christopher Aiello for two traffic infractions and during the course of the whole process he was nothing short of professional and through his hard work he was able to get one ticket dismissed and the other one significantly reduced. I would highly recommend him for any incident.

Hands down the best lawyer around.

I had gotten into an accident which resulted in a pedestrian being injured quite badly. However, Mr. Aiello was able to completely dismiss my reckless driving and disregard for stop sign charges. Absolutely one of the best lawyers around, and he was very friendly and efficient. Overall could not have... asked for a better attorney.

Professional and Empathetic

Mr. Aiello helped me with an employment contract I had signed with my current employer. He was very knowledgeable in the subject matter and had many other similar cases to draw experience from. He was also very easy to talk to, and answered all my questions in extraordinary detail. I would highly re...commend him and his team, and will be sure to reach out if I need legal representation in the future.

Thankful

I recently retained Chris Aiello for a traffic matter. Mr. Aiello came highly recommended by my cousin. From our initial conversation he put my mind at ease, although the speeding ticket I received was pretty severe. Mr. Aiello made himself available each time I had a question or concern. He was very... compassionate about my situation. I am grateful to have been represented by such an honest, professional and experienced attorney. I am happy with the result in this case and would recommend Mr. Aiello to anyone in need of legal services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
