Recommendation

Ms. Papa was very professional and kept us well informed about my son's case. My son was arrested and facing jail time. She was able to get him into a drug program and if he completes all that he must do his chargers will be reduced. Thank you Danielle. If you need a lawyer I highly recommend her.

Awesome choice for attorney

My sister has been thought a lot transferred from one prison which we were extremely unhappy with the first attorney she had then transferred to another jail nobody has done nothing to try to help her and her complicated case thats how I felt up untill I had the pleasure of meeting defense attorney D...anielle papa she is very understanding and to the point and I believe she is going to get the best deal possible for my sister. Which really is putting all of her loved ones at ease and I spoke to many attorneys on this long journey and she is in fact one the best I'm very happy with her she is an excellent attorney smart and knows the her laws I would recommend her to anyone that needs a attorney.....

Thorough, affordable and tenacious

In April of 2015 I was charged with DUI and possession. To be honest I was pretty scared about the long term consequences in regards to my recordand of course my freedom. I interviewed 5 lawyers and all had various pricing points. I did not pick Danielle because of the price even though comparativel...y she was reasonable. I picked Danielle because for a few reasons. First she listened and asked intelligent well thought out questions. Second she reviewed various scenarios and WE agreed on what would be best for my particular situation. Third she laid out out a comprehensive yet realistic strategy on how to obtain that goal. Finally and perhaps most important she has empathy. Danielle did not judge or preach. She at no point made me feel less than because I had a problem and admittedly I had a serious problem. I have had very frank conversations with Danielle since retaining her and she was always supportive and I would even go so far to say proud. Ultimatelyat this point I would consider her a friend and I take that word very seriously. Yet in regard to her legal prowess, I followed her suggestions to a tee which in turn gave her the ammunition to tenaciously argue my case over the period of over a year. My judge was not known for leniency yet Danielle NEVER settled. At one point even I was going settle but she refused and for that I will be eternally grateful. If you are reading this review clearly you have an issue. My suggestion is two fold. First hire Danielle she will not disappoint. Second, listen and ACT upon her suggestions, not only will it help your case it may save your life...it saved mine. To sum up my experience, I expected somewhere between 6-8 months in county a felony DUI AND misdemeanor possession of heroin. I received a misdemeanor DUI and a disorderly conduct with no jail time and to boot I'm 7 months clean and I've never been happier. To me this is no just a review but a thank you letter to someone who made a massive positive impact in my life and again I could not be more grateful. Michael L

Danielle is an excellent attorney

Danielle Papa is a very personable, knowledgeable and professional defense attorney. She represented me in a criminal defense matter that went to trial and she was confident and reassuring. Her knowledge of the law and expertise during the trial won the case. I would highly recommend her to anyone l...ooking for an expert defense attorney. Thank you Danielle, I am so grateful to be able to move on with my life and put this behind me. Your truly are the best.

Excellent Attorney

I highly recommend Danielle Papa. I reached out to her after reading several positive reviews of her services online. She was everything folk wrote about and more. She returned my first phone call within minutes and immediately put my mind at ease about the criminal matter my son was facing. She ...took her time explaining the process we were facing, possible outcomes and answered all my questions. She then spoke with my son and prepared him for the process and answered his questions. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced, approachable and professional. She was with us every step of the way through the court process, counseling us on what to expect and making sound suggestions on how to proceed. We followed her advice and wound up with the best possible outcome- my son's case was dismissed! Danielle Papa absolutely made a very troubling time more bearable. She is a top notch attorney and a very caring individual. I strongly suggest you contact her. You'll be in the best possible hands.
