Run!!

I sat with Phil about a child support and custody case. I paid $1500 to retain him. On the day of court for custody the issue of driving came up. My ex puts the kids in more activities then I can get them to and they are all 40 minutes away from me. Not only did I find myself arguing with the child l...awyer but I actually spent more time arguing with my own lawyer on the matter. Needless to say it did not go in my favor and once child support came he actually questioned me in front of the judge on why I am no longer employed. He had 2 court appearances for me $1500 retainer and $360 for I don't know what and I got no money back after I fired him. He was one of the worst attorneys I ever had. Maybe he's good for simple cut and dry issues not for anything else.

An excellent attorney

I came to Mr. Jusino after finding myself in need of representation in a petty larceny case. He gave me peace of mind and provided a plan to get my charges dismissed. On the day of court he was able to get the ACD and have me out of the courtroom in two short minutes! I'm glad to have taken on Mr. Ju...sino, he's a great lawyer and I would recommend his services to anyone in need of legal help.

Highly recommended lawyer!

Phillip Jusino is a very knowledgeable lawyer who met all of my legal needs. I was referred to him by my divorce lawyer to handle my criminal case. He always kept me informed and made sure that I understood and agreed with everything regarding my legal process. Phillip was more of a friend rather tha...n my lawyer always putting my needs first. I will definitely refer him to my family and friends. Thank you Phil.

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.
