Highly Recommended Representation

I am very thankful for finding John when needing legal assistance. Needing legal assistance for the first time comes with a lot of questions and confusion. John made it clear that he wanted to make sure those questions were answered and that I was fully aware about every piece of my case by always ...making himself available. I felt more at ease knowing John was in my corner. A part of my case was even dismissed due to his expertise in knowing how to fight for me avoiding additional fines and suspension time. I would highly recommend to anyone needing representation.

John R. An outstanding and excellent attorney

I had an amazing experience with Mr. Raimondo. From the beginning I met John, he was friendly and helpful. John made the whole process smooth, ensuring I felt comfortable throughout. John always took my calls, even late at night. He was very responsive and able to clearly explain everything I need t...o know. He patiently explained the process, expected timeline, and strategy in terms that were easy for a layperson to understand. John was able to get my case dismissed with DMV. John was very thorough and very experienced. He knows what he's talking about, and I highly recommend John to anyone. Mahesh Motieram

Amazing Lawyer

I knew John was my lawyer from our very fist conversation. He took the time to learn not only about the facts of the case, but also about me and who I am. My ex-wife had me criminally charged during a very bad divorce and I knew i needed someone who would fight for me. John not only did this, but was... always diligent about returning every call I made to him answering every question I had. John is very knowledgeable about the law which made me feel very comfortable about my situation even though the charges against me were serious. John was very upfront, honest and told me what to expect about the process and when to expect it. I would have been extremely nervous in court, but with the knowledge John gave me I had no worries because I trusted him. Thanks to him I did not even make it to trial. Everything was settled beforehand. John did everything he could to get me the best outcome. I am truly appreciative of everything John has done for me in this case. If you are looking for a personable, diligent, fighter for a lawyer look no further. I have already told John that if I ever need another attorney in this type of matters, he is my guy. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone because in my opinion he is the best.

Only John A. Raimondo Could Deliver The Successful Outcome

Now let me start with this was my 2nd DUI Charge yet the first time I hired Raimondo. Was charged with 1192-3 meaning I refused to blow into the breathalyzer which NY State law automatically suspends your license for 1 year. Well not with Raimondo. He presented a tiny era in the police report in refe...rence how the police wrote down the knowledge of me refusing. And the judge decided not to suspend my license during arraignment. WOW!! This is unheard of. Right from the start I knew I had someone special that will defend me. Several more court dates with in the 3-4 months Raimondo ask for the charges to be dropped to a 1192.1. Mind you this is my 2nd offense so to get the same outcome as my 1st offense is also a long shot and unheard of. But Raimondo delivered. I’m highly happy the way I was represented. He’s the real deal. Anytime I called he’s responded. He cares to know the person he’s representing. Im grateful to be represented by Raimondo

Breath, You Found the right Lawyer

Let me start by saying, take a deep breath, you will get through this. I fully understand the feeling of shame and desperation in having to confront any sort of legal issue. I can assure you that you have come to the right place and those feelings will eventually fade. Take it one day at a time. ... There are lawyers who sugarcoat and others who fear monger you into hiring them. Beware! But John is none of those things. John is very direct and is about taking care of business. At the same time he is very caring and works very hard to get you the best possible outcome. Every situation is different and you should not have false hope — but in my situation, he got what could have been a very complicated case (DUI) dismissed. I was very fortunate to have found john. He is extremely busy but always finds time to connect and answer any questions. Even on Sunday nights! Hiring a lawyer can be expensive but john offers very competitive pricing. Quite frankly, he should charge more after seeing him in action. During my case proceedings, I witnessed other lawyers who could care less about their clients, some of which I even spoke to during my research. And those guys were charging me way more than john. I got very lucky finding him. I appreciate everything he did for me and I can assure you he is the right person for your case. I am happy to have met him even though it was under unfortunate circumstances. Everyone has 20/20 vision in retrospect and I can assure you that I made the best decision hiring him and so will you. John is the man! Good luck with the process, take care of yourself, and remember, it will go away eventually.
