I endorse this lawyer. During my tenure as the Howell Township Prosecutor I have been the opposing counsel to Michael J. Grasso, Freehold, NJ. Mr. Grasso frequently provided his clients with an energetic and detailed defense for great results. I found Attorney Grasso's presentation of client's defenses to be credible, and well researched. Finally, Mr. Grasso did very well on the driving while intoxicated cases that required fine attention to facts to successfully produce the best possible results for his clients.
