The right person for the job

I highly recommend Mr. Porreca and his services! Chris recently represented me in a DWI case that had the potential to wreak havoc on my personal and professional life. He and his assistant Stephanie help me manage through the process, alleviating a ton of stress. Initially, I was concerned about ret...aining the right attorney for my matter. I wasn't sure if that person would truly advocate for me or just put me through the motions, leaving me with a poor outcome and another bill. Chris partnered with me on my situation, doing everything possible to ensure an optimal outcome was reached. If you are researching attorneys for your DWI situation, talk to Chris before you talk to any one else. I assure you, his professionalism, approach, and value will make your decision easy. Thanks Chris, you were a tremendous help when I needed it most.

Incredible Job, Best Lawyer I've Had

Mr. Porrreca was able to have charges dismissed for my speeding 50 miles over the speed limit and handle the entire case on his own as I was overseas at the time. Highly professional, kind and helpful throughout and obviously a phenomenal lawyer. Cannot recommend enough!

Very Professional

Helped my son for very high speeding violation on NJ Turnpike. Got case dismissed. What I truly appreciated, beyond the outcome, was the professionalism of Mr. Porreca. Efficient. Brief but polite. No unnecessary, wordy e-mails. Never wasted my time. Incidentally, very competent and responsive... assistant / paralegal.

  • 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.
