Expert lawyer for personal injury law

My May 2013 car accident in the state of Florida left me with difficult financial matters. Attorney Galen Criscione, who has the knowledge and expertise in the law in both Florida and New York where I reside, was recommended to me because of his utmost confidence. I found Attorney Galen Criscione to ...not only be intelligent, straight forward, and honest, but to also be of excellent character. He handled my case with ease and responded to all my questions and concerns in a timely fashion. I highly recommend Galen Criscione as an attorney to anyone looking for expertise in personal injury law.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
