I have been practicing law for over 20 years. I am a former muncipal prosecutor, current private practitioner and court appointed attorney for indigent defendants. I have handled over 6000 cases in municipal court as a public and private attorney. I am very diligent, straight forward and have an excellent reputation in the practice of law. My clients refer me constantly and I earn those referrals by working very hard for each and every client to secure the best possible results in every case. I was raised in a family business which instilled hard working self-employment values. I have many different skills that have been honed since I was a teenager working with my family on large projects all over the world. I have built homes, run my own companies successfully and handle a spectrum of issues with great competence. Most importantly, I know how to interact and relate well with all people. Cases are about people and facts. They are stories. I listen to the facts, tell you my brutally honest assessment and go to work to get my clients the best results based on the circumstances. I am persistent. I have added to my team and my other attorney Thomas J. Dooley, Esq. is a former State Police Expert in Forensic Chemistry. He knows the science and is on your team when you hire our firm. I have significant experience in DUI defense, traffic matters, criminal defense, real estate, business formation, business sales and acquisition, zoning issues, wills and litigation.

Avoid this firm or proceed at your own risk..
I hired Santore Law to represent me however, I worked with Thomas Dooley who is listed an as associate for this firm on their website.
