Achieved outcome beyond expectation!

I hired Michael many years ago, before Avvo was really a thing. I'm so glad I can finally provide a recommendation for him! He worked thoughtfully and aggressively to achieve an outcome that I didn't think was possible. I cannot thank him enough! I had a complicated DWI case, and Michael was able ...to understand the nuances of my situation and develop a strategy that was tailored to my specific needs. He was always available to answer my questions and provide me with updates on my case. Michael was not afraid to fight for me. He went above and beyond what was required to get me the best possible outcome. He was always prepared for court, and he was able to articulate my case in a clear and concise way. He was very persuasive, and was able to get the judge to see things from my perspective and future in mind. I am grateful for Michael’s help. He was an invaluable asset to me during a very difficult time. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who is skilled, experienced, and compassionate.

Excellent

Michael Discioarro handled my DWI case and I have nothing but amazing things to say. After our initial meeting I didn’t have to worry about anything. He kept me updated on my case and even sent me reminders of my court dates. He was always on time, prepared and professional. I would definitely reco...mmend him as an attorney to any of my family and friends. Completely satisfied.

Absolute top-notch criminal defense lawyer

This review comes from someone with a law degree from NYC. I landed on Michael after a thorough review online of his background and DWI experience. It's hard to think where my life and career would be right now if I entrusted my case (which involved an aggressive NYPD traffic stop leading to a DWI ch...arge) to any other lawyer I considered. Michael displayed the perfect combination of factors: he aggressively defended me, respectfully contested any and all prosecutorial overstepping, understood exactly how/where their case was weak, and all the while kept me at ease in an otherwise stressful situation. And that was no easy task - my case kept getting adjourned because the prosecution was never ready. And while I wasn't thrilled that the court kept making me appear (over a year and half - one of the longest cases on the docket), Michael was there for me every step of the way. What did all that amount to? A DWI charge reduced to community service - no probation, no suspension, no major disruption to my life. While you must keep in mind that every case is different, one sure guarantee is that if Michael takes your case, he WILL defend you to the fullest. By the end, I considered Michael a friend as much as a lawyer.

“I chose to go to law school because I thought that someday, somehow I’d make a difference”, a quote by Christopher Darden, an A

When I read this I immediately thought of Michael and my experience with him. I didn’t know Michael prior to needing legal advice and representation. I did exactly what you are doing now, reading the reviews attorneys received from their client in determining if this was the right choice for my situ...ation. Once meeting and consulting with Michael about my legal situation, (potential DWI) I knew he was the right lawyer to represent me. At the end of 10 months of going through the process of court dates and hearing, he came through, even when I started to think the outcome would not result in my favor. Before trail he met with the DA, and did make a BIG difference, reducing a potential DWI misdemeanor conviction to a traffic violation. My advice to you, choose Michael, listen to his counsel, go through the process and don’t lose faith because his goal is to “make a difference” on your behalf. Thanks again Michael!
