Great Experience with Lou's Firm

Lou handled my divorce recently and he is without a doubt the consummate professional. A straight shooter who was never too busy to take my call or reply to my emails. His answers to my questions were clear, complete, and easy to follow. Everyone in the office was friendly and helpful and I cannot th...ank them enough! If I ever need an attorney again, Lou will be the first person I call!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Lou worked tirelessly on my behalf to get me everything that I deserved. He always took my calls and never rushed me off the phone. He made sure that I understood everything that was going on with my case and made it clear to me what I could expect as a result. He is passionate about his work and its... very easy to tell that he truly cares about his clients. In the courtroom, he was confident and aggressive; he never let me feel intimidated. I would recommend him or any of the other attorneys in his office to anyone!!!

Lou is the best!

I have dealt with several lawyers in the past, and I must say that Lou Simonetti is definitely step above the rest. I retained him for a family court matter and I am very glad I did! He was responsive, informative, direct, and confident yet unassuming. Lou really took the time to understand both my l...egal and financial situation in effort to a find a rate suitable to my circumstances. I do not believe that I would have gotten a better value for my money with another attorney. Perhaps most importantly, Lou got the results I wanted! What more could you ask for from an attorney?

Experienced and Professional

My experience as a client of Mr. Simonetti could not have been a better one. He is a true professional who answered all of my questions and returned my calls right away. When he called me, it was NOT simply to ask for money, but rather to keep me well informed about what was going on with my case. In... court, he was firm and did not let the opposing attorney push him or me around. I felt that I could completely trust Mr. Simonetti with all of the aspects of my case. Retaining Mr. Simonetti is a "no brainer" if you need legal counsel!!!

Honest, Professional, and Gets Results!!

Lou is straight shooter who listens to your concerns seriously, gives sound advice, and always keeps you informed with what is going on. His secretaries are very patient, knowledgeable and go out of their way to help you when Lou is not in the office. It was evident that Lou has a tremendous amount o...f experience; anyone twists or turns that arose as a result of the nasty divorce I was in, Lou was able to handle with ease. I am very grateful for everyone in his office!! Hire him-- you will be very happy you did!
