William Strazza

I owe Bill everything for the depth and level of effort he put into my case. A bouncer who opted to attack me from behind lied and pressed charges claiming I assaulted him which led to an arrest that derailed my life for 3 years and still affects me to this day. I was arrested and charged with 2nd De...gree Aggravated Assault and Bill Strazza and Matthew Werner took the case as my defense attorney. Early on in the case when we received discovery and Bill saw the very obvious signs of self-defense that had occurred in my case he stated to me "There are few cases where I can state definitively that the client is innocent. This is one of those cases." He then proceeded to aggressively litigate my case and tries to get the charges dropped over 3 years. My case went through 3 prosecutors and 2 judges before it went to trial after 1149 days. With no successful resolution a court date was finally set in 2017. That same year - this man suffered a heartbreaking personal loss a few months prior to my trial. When offered to reschedule the trial for his sake - he insists that the trial proceed "because I wont watch an innocent man suffer any longer than he has to". He then proceeds to display the most brilliant defense of my case I had ever witnessed. He manages to prove to the entire jury that the bouncer was lying under oath - he shows a video footage which shows I am the one assaulted from behind from not one angle but multiple angles. He even managed to get another bouncer to AGREE THAT I WAS ASSAULTED and caught a slip from the detective investigating my case where he states he "arrested the victim". He places me on the stand (usually you dont do this) because he was confident that it would help the case - and it did. I was found unanimously not guilty of a second degree charge of assault as well as all the lesser ones. But he doesn't stop there - he pursues civil charges against the bouncer, venue, and PD, and waives all legal fees on the settlement. I am sitting here holding my kids who would not be here were it not for Bill. I would, and do, recommend him first and foremost because he has the one thing that I have seen in few lawyers: a heartfelt desire to defend you not for a win but for justice itself.

Strazza Came off polite and educated . He presented himself as he could be beneficial with my particular situation only to find out he was utterly clueless to represent me and my concerns. I demanded a refund as he totally misrepresented himself as someone who cares and could be of assistance he d...enied my request , He's merely a fraud taking advantage of the vulnerable nothing more then a hustler. Heed my warning as a devout Christian we all have to stand in front of God and be judged and are accountable for our actions .He'll rob you blind ,The irony a criminal defense attorney is the actual criminal . He has no absolutely conscious he's just a deceptive sociopath in my opinion ,If you look at his reviews a lot are bunched together posted on the same day or consecutive days they're as fake as him .

Bill was a phenomenal lawyer. He helped us with a juvenile issue for our child who requires special education. Bill’s understanding of the juvenile law and process were fantastic. Bill’s added expertise around children with special needs, was tremendously helpful. On top of his expertise, Bill has ...great soft skills as explained everything to us patiently, which helped put our mind at ease that we were in good hands. I cant say enough good things about Bill!

Mr. Strazza represented my teenage daughter when she faced charges of felony assault with a weapon for allegedly threatening a physically and mentally abusive ex-boyfriend with a knife in an ill-advised attempt to get him to leave her alone. Mr Strazza was referred to my wife and me by a highly rega...rded juvenile court civil law attorney in New Jersey with whom we had previously worked. We were looking for the best juvenile court criminal attorney available to represent our daughter. Mr Strazza exceeded our high expectations. He was able to communicate effectively with our emotional teenage daughter, the prosecutor's office and the Court. Mr. Strazza's level of preparation of this case was of the highest standards. He developed physical and testimony evidence demonstrating and supporting the facts of physical and mental abuse that our daughter endured from her teen ex-boyfriend and the issues that drove her to try to take matters into her own hands. Mr. Strazza developed a thorough pre-trial analysis of the extenuating circumstances of the case, laying out a strong case of criminal abuse by the ex-boyfriend against our daughter. By providing his pre-trail analysis to the prosecutor, Mr Strazza was able to negotiate a pre-trial plea for my daughter to one felony assault count but with no jail or probation, permission to leave the state to attend college, and an agreement by the prosecutor to support a request to expunge our daughter's criminal record of this case if she stayed out of legal trouble for the following 12 months. Mr Strazza is intelligent, understands the criminal court process, and for us was able to develop a case to achieve the best results possible from given facts. His pre-trial preparation was of the highest standard. (Earlier in my career I was a Federal agent and worked closely with US Department of Justice criminal attorneys on prosecuting complex criminal investigations and criminal trials. I have experience working with exceptional criminal attorneys). I highly recommend Mr. Strazza for his ability to simplify the process of complex criminal defense. He managed the process of the criminal court proceedings (rather than allowing the prosecution or Court to do so). He presented a rational path, supported by evidence, for settling the case rather than taking the risks that come from going to trial. He gave our daughter a chance to get her life back.
