Exceptional

Desiree is a terrific lawyer, working with great detail and passion in the best interest of her clients. She explains the pros/cons of every situation so her clients can make informed decisions. When it's an issue her firm can't handle, she has quality partnerships within her network to assist. I wou...ld, have, and will continue to refer people to Desiree.

Desiree Lovell Fusco

Desiree Lovell Fusco is professional, competent, and a pleasure to deal with. After meeting with her, my husband and I felt confident that we have hired the best possible representation. We would highly recommend her.

Compassionate and Sincere

Mrs. Frusco has always given our family honest and thorough advise when we needed it . She is compassionate and understanding . She goes over every detail and leaves nothing out . Mrs. Frusco makes sure you understand everything that is taking place. Always ready to answer our questions. I have u...sed her in the past for a family estate issue and she has done our Last Will and Testament and I would not hesitate to call her for our future needs. I highly recommend her.

Fabulous experience with Desiree

After the passing of my father I was referred to Desiree's partner Joe, who also was great. After hearing our needs, he introduced me to Desiree, and felt she was the expert in this area. From that point on she was professional, friendly, timely, and fully understanding of the needs of our situation.... Desiree helped get us through my dad's passing, and the subsequent estate issues as smoothly as possible. She made the entire family comfortable with the laws and specifics of our situation. I highly recommend her to anyone with estate planning needs.

Desiree Lovell Fusco, Attorney

Desiree was absolutely fantastic. She handled not only my estate planning, but my fathers as well. She was always readily available to talk whenever we needed some advice, and clearly cared about her clients. I would recommend Desiree to anyone and everyone.

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.
