An Outstanding Attorney

I contacted Mr. Zazzera after realizing that my bank account was frozen due to an outstanding judgment. Mr. Zazzera put all my fears to rest and prepared my Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition by that very evening. He explained the entire process, start to finish, and made me feel at ease. The petition... was filed the next day and the restraint lifted from my bank account within 48 hours. I cannot recommend Mr. Zazzera's service enough. I have never met a more competent and understanding attorney. He truly made what could have been a daunting and unpleasant process a comfortable experience.

BEST DECISION I EVER MADE

I was looking for help with my debt. I thought I would have to pay it all back and didn't know how I could do that because I was over my head and times are so hard. The credit card companies that used to just call me all the time were starting to sue me. I just stopped answering the phone and open...ing my mail. Then I found Mr. Zazzera's website. I finally called him. He was so comforting and nice. He told me alot of people are in my situation, and made me feel like it was nothing to be ashamed of. I made an appointment. Before I went to see him, I spoke to two other attorneys on Staten Island about bankruptcy. Neither was nice like he was, and they were more expensive. I borrowed the money from my mom to pay his fee. It was the best decision I ever made. The collection calls stopped because he told them to. Once the court discharged all of my debt, I had enough money every month to pay my other bills, to pay back my mom and now I'm starting to get back on my feet. I just wish I had called him sooner. I had no idea how easy and fast everything could get good again.

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.
