Great Experience

Chris did a great job with my case. I was very meticulous and made sure I fully understood everything that was going on. He kept me informed throughout the entire process. There was never a time that I had to walk into court no knowing what to expect. He went above and beyond to make sure I had the b...est outcome possible. He maintained communication through the duration of my case and always made him self available if I had a question even on nights and weekends. I would absolutely recommend.

Excellent!!!

I did a lot of research in trying to find the best lawyer for my DUI case and I found what I was looking for! I was extremely happy with Chris Porreca and his knowledge of the law. He did everything he could to help me get the best outcome for my case. He is very knowledgeable in his profession and m...akes sure his clients know exactly what their options are. I would highly recommend Mr. Porreca to anyone looking for a lawyer. No matter what kind of case it is, he will work his hardest to make sure he gets the best results for his clients!

Outstanding Attorney

Out of all of my Attorney/Client experiences Chris Porreca is by far the best. Considering my circumstances, and my charges.. There absolutely was no way out of a criminal conviction for a first offense, and yet Chris managed to get me into a first time offender program, and I walked away with no cri...minal conviction which to say the least is a rare occurrence. He always answers calls, is quick to call back to answer any questions one may have, and most importantly explains the entire process in a manner that doesn't sound like legal nonsense. He endlessly pushed to get me the incredible ending I didn't think I had a right to. The District Attorney himself, after just meeting him, told me that Chris jumped through tremendous hoops to get me where he did. I couldn't be more thankful for Chris, and his assistant Rose & their amazing Service, and kindness through this eight month period of chaos. Chris is great, he's easy to talk to, he's not a stiff personality you dread being around, it's a great experience all and all. I totally recommend Chris Porreca to anyone facing the various situations he handles. Just be completely honest, and he will get you the best deal or circumstances.

Honest, Trustworthy and Proven Results!

I am someone new to the court system. This was the first time I required assistance from an attorney. In a world of so many attorneys, I was fortunate enough to find Mr. Porecca through a referral. He is professional, honest, trustworthy and dedicated to meeting his client's needs. During this stress...ful time I was confident and comfortable that my legal needs would be met. He was very attentive and approachable. Anytime I contacted Mr. Porecca with questions he responded in a timely manner and was very informative. I was pleased with the outcome of my case. I highly recommend him!
