Great lawyer

Luke is a very skilled litigator. He has been helping me dealing with issues in family court. Very friendly and easy to talk to about delicate matters. Always ready to help.

A lawyer who really cares.

I consulted with various lawyers before I hired Luke Scardigno and the main reason was because he immediately put me at ease about my legal case and my financial situation. From the moment I met him during the initial consultation, Luke Scardigno told me not to worry about his fee and assured me tha...t he would see to it that I don't end up with a criminal record. He cared more about me and making sure that I don't end up with a criminal record than his fee, which ended up being about half of what other lawyers were charging. During the initial consultation, he first walked me through the entire process of my case and told me what to expect and then he offered me an easy payment plan for his representation. I was facing two felony charges and Luke Scardigno was able to lower one to a misdemeanor which will be dismissed in six months and he lowered the other one to a disorderly conduct which will be eventually sealed. But, most of all I will not end up with a criminal record, just like he assured me. If you need a criminal lawyer who is experienced, who is extremely knowledgeable, who knows his way around the legal system and who charges reasonable fees, Luke Scardigno is your man. But, if you want a lawyer who will also care about you and not just your case, than Luke Scardigno is the one for you.

Got me back on track!!!!

Unfortunately I had 4 different criminal cases and some other stuff, during a bad time in my life. 2 in Queens and 2 in Nassau County. I was very lucky and fortunate to find Luke Scardigno from the very first case. Because of his knowledge of the law, experience with the legal system, and his caring ...about what happened to me, I do not have a criminal record, even after 4 different arrests? Because of him I was able to get a job since I could write on my job applications that I was never convicted of a crime. Even better, he charged me very reasonable rates on each case, did not try to take advantage of me, even though he knew I wanted to retain him again for the new cases, and he gave me a very affordable payment plan, which I paid as the cases went along. He never bothered me about payments, and allowed me to pay when I had the money. Thanks Luke! Stephen, Queens, NY.
