Michele Finizio

If you want to spend thousands to have your hand held to a guilty plea, this is the firm to hire. Not much contact from them, except advising of adjourned court dates. I wasn't informed much about the progression of my case and what was their strategy after they reviewed the complete discovery to... get me the best possible outcome. They didn't care, Do your research before hiring a lawyer folks.

Absolutely amazing not only an absolute professional lawyer with the best work ethic but truly a women with an amazing heart and so honest it was a pleasure to work with her and if you are in need of an attorney please do not hesitate or think twice to give her a call. Thank you for everything Michel...e I am very grateful.

The police executed a search warrant and subsequently arrested me. I needed help in a hurry. I found Ms Finizio using Google and Michele agreed to help me sight unseen and then spent time with my family helping them cope with my situation. Michele affected my release from jail and then negotiated a f...avorable plea. She has continued to advise me post sentencing on parole issues and paying fines. I found her to be compassionate yet a no-nonsense person. I would certainly use her again but hope I don’t have to!!

I retained Michele for two separate traffic tickets. One was for driving 80 in a 65, the other was for Careless Driving. For the speeding ticket, she claims to have gotten me a "deal" by "only" having me plea to a 2 point offense (newsflash, driving 80 in a 65 IS 2 point ticket and Michele's respons...e was "In New Jersey it's 4" as if I'm not from NJ). But whatever, I sign off on it and take the plea. For the Careless Driving ticket, which is also a 2 point ticket, she had me plea to a Unsafe operation of a motor vehicle-- presumably where I'd pay a larger fine and get 0 points. When I told her I had 2 unsafe driving tickets within 5 years and that I can't do this, she just spoke over me and said I was wrong and that Unsafe Driving is ALWAYS 0 points-- in actuality, it becomes 4 points on the 3rd offense within 5 years. My mistake was somehow believing her, possibly thinking laws have changed... but no, 4 points added to my driving abstract and kicked off my insurance. So in essence, I hired Michele, paid her money where it resulted in MORE points. I honestly wish I was making this up but no, she's disrespectful. I'm sure she's done good work for other clients, but its clear that this person picks and chooses who to give preferred service.
