I am forever grateful to Mr. Guadagnino....

I met Mr. Guadagnino when he served as my legal aid a few years ago. I gave this person a ride in my car, not knowing he had drugs on him. As soon as he sat in my car, we got stopped by the cops. He immediately hid the drugs in my car and the police found the drugs in my car. I got arrested and he ...blamed everything on me. Thank God Mr. Guadagnino was there for me. Most important he believed in me. I was looking at a few years for a crime I did not commit but he was able to prove that I was innocent. Now to the real reason why I'm so grateful to Mr. Guadagnino is because of what he did for my son. He saved his life, just as he did for me. My son got arrested for a robbery that he did not commit, he didn't even know about it. The person that did the robbery impersonated a police officer, so it became a federal case. No lawyer wanted to take the case until I reached out to Peter. He remembered my case and was glad to take on my sons case. My daughter had to put her house up as collateral, my sons girlfriend had to borrow $50,000 and my wife and I had to put up our life savings to bail my son out. Mr. Guadagnino worked very hard on this case. Thank God he was able to find a surveillance video that proved that my son was not present when this crime was committed. The video proved that the individuals didn't resemble anything like my son. Peter was able to request that all pending charges against my son be dropped under lack of evidence. THANK God and Mr. Guadagnino my son was found innocent of all these charges, he is now a free man. The last time something like this happened in a federal court was in 1945. Peter was able to accomplish what 10 other lawyers wouldn't even attempt. What's most important to me is the feeling of knowing that your attorney really and truly believes that you are innocent. I felt that 3 years ago with Peter just like I felt it through my sons case. He is true to his craft. 100% genuinely committed to his clients. THANK YOU MR.GUADAGNINO.

He is truly a winner!

I thank God that Peter Guadagnino represented my son on two felony murder charges and that thanks to his hard work and dedication, my son was acquitted. There are not enough words to express my gratitude. He defended my son well and did so in a manner that was knowledgeable, straightforward and passi...onate while demonstrating extreme patience, kindness and respect. I appreciate his extensive experience and his explaining everything to us in layman's terms so that we were well informed of everything at all times. He is simply the best. He is the kind of lawyer that can relate to anyone and everyone, defendants, victims, prosecutors and judges. His infinite knowledge of the Penal Law is impeccable, his eloquence and style in the courtroom is remarkable and my son was cleared because of his excellent representation. My entire family has nothing but praise for Mr. Guadagnino. He made what seemed impossible, possible and I know that without him my son would have lost. He was genuinely concerned about my son, addressed all our questions and concerns and he fought for him and was victorious! May God continue to Bless him!

Attorney of the Century!!!!!

Saying Peter is Awesome would be an understatement!!!! Mr. Guadagnino has defended me in the past on several felony charges and his presence in the courtroom is phenomenal. . . I was facing 15-25 years and was sentenced to 1-3 because of his representation. Since then, I have recommended him to sever...al people, including my cousin. My cousin was charged with several felonies including an B felony. All charges was dismissed and he was found not Guilty of all charges and is now free!! Peter remains professional at all times, very punctual, understanding and determined!!!! His presence in the courtroom is overwhelming as he makes his words heartfelt and makes sure they are received by the judge and jurors. I would highly recommend him to anyone to runs into trouble with the law. I do not have any intentions of getting into trouble in the future, but have his number on speed dial for safe measure and to give it to anyone that may need help.

He saved my life!!

I would recommend him to anyone. I would bet my life that he will win any case presented to him. I was charged with 6 felony counts. The top one being an attempted murder charge. He definitely represents Justice Served. I was innocent and the top 5 charges received a not guilty verdict. He is now wor...king on an appeal to get the last charge dismissed. He is absolutely Phenomenal! Give him a call today!!!
