Very clear, Honest and has a good sense of humor.

I was very satisfied with Mr. Porreca, he clearly explained all the possible options and did a wonderful job executing the case. His sense of humor definitely made the process less stressful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a GOOD lawyer.

Great lawyer!.

Chris G. Porreca is very professional and I knew he was the right man to contact when I received a speeding ticket. He kept me informed among the whole legal process and I was more than satisfied with the results. He was very realistic with the scenario based on the experience he had with speeding ti...ckets and he got me the best deal he can get me, and I was anticipating a worse scenario than what we settled on. I will certainly recommend Chris Porreca to anyone I know who needs legal help. Chris Porreca and I met a few months ago when I was privileged to help him lease a new vehicle. I find it pretty cool that although he was my client, I wound up being his client soon thereafter. Chris is the man to go too, and I am happy to add another great review on his behalf after his excellent service.

DUI Arrest - Great Lawyer, Greater Person

I was arrested for DUI and Disorderly Persons charge as an underage minor. My outcome was the best it was going to get thanks to the connections and hard work of Mr. Porreca. He guided me through the entire process and was always accessible to me to speak via phone or email. His assistant always reac...hed out to me when he was not available and made sure that there was a time for us to speak set aside in the future. I am a good person who made a terrible mistake. However, during times like this, it is very easy to feel like a horrible human being. Mr. Porreca never treated me that way, and always gave me the utmost respect and kept my comfortable throughout the process, which I truly, truly valued. If you are someone who is going through a similar ordeal, I highly encourage you to at least meet him for a consultation. He is the type of person that puts minds at ease when he walks in, trust me, it is worth it.

My experience with Chris as my attorney

He was very professional, fought for me when things looked grim, and ultimately saved me from a nuclear missile as far as legal matters are concerned. I was very pleased with hiring him.

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.
