Dwi

I was told about the firm Bruno and Ferraro. They helped me get my charges dismissed in Irvington, NJ and were extremely professional through out the entire process. They were extremely resonable price wise as well. Thank you for all your great work.

John J. Bruno - Professional

John Bruno, a man you can count on. Very realistic in his assessment of situations. A true professional who cares deeply about his clients. His knowledge, tact, and moxie proved invaluable in our situation and its resolution. Can not say enough good about John Bruno.

Life saver, well-known and respected.

I don't write reviews, but for John & Johnathan Bruno, I make an exception for how they've helped me and my family when we needed it. John, Johnathan Bruno and associates have been my family's attorney for over a decade. From my experience they are exceptionally reliable, intelligent, and proficient ...in legal service. When faced with a serious offense, that seemed to be hopeless, Mr. Bruno turned everything around. I owe so much of where I am now in my life to how they've helped me. We've been grateful for their service more than once, and always trust them in their expertise. Do not go without a good attorney, and from my experience with others years ago - John is really the best. Always grateful for your help and service.

Very Impressive

We came into our case with very low odds of winning. We put our faith in Mr. Bruno and was not disappointed. He listened to our concerns and really seemed to understand our side. With the help of his expert he got all of our charges dismissed. Would use him again in a heartbeat.

No Reason To Look for Another Attorney

I hired John to handle multiple, complex motor vehicle violations. His professionalism was exceptional; knowledge unparalleled and commitment to obtaining a favorable result for me was unyielding. I am an attorney and I find that too often, especially in DMV matters, the defense attorney just wants... to plead quickly and move on. Not this man, he left no stone unturned and at no time did he leave me with a sense of concern for the outcome. I cannot thank he and his son enough for the job they did!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

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.
