The best lawyer you will ever find

Genaro is such a good attourney and he is very caring you are not just a client. He has gotten criminal charges dismissed for me that were falsely filed against me and traffic tickets he truly is an amazing attourney.

Kind, Caring, Compassionate

I hired Gennaro to help us out in a liability lawsuit. He went above and beyond and advised us as our original defense lawyer did not. With Gennaro,s assistance and guidance, we were able to prove that our daughter was not the cause of it but, herself, the victim of an over-aggressive driver. We w...ere never able to prove her innocence in court because we accepted a plea deal and the court refused our case. However, Gennaro went above and beyond to do his very best for us and I would not hesitate to hire him again if needed nor recommend him to anyone in need.

Life saver

I got pulled over for driving without insurance, stupid decision on my part of course. I luckily didn't get arrested, but got 5 tickets, my car towed, license suspended .. The list goes on. I thought for sure I'd be stuck with a misdemeanor and a bunch of fines.. Mr. Calabrese really took the time to... make me feel comfortable, made sure he had every detail and really saved my butt when the court date came. All tickets but 1 dropped, no points on my license and only have to pay 140 bucks!!! You'd be silly not to hire this man, I would recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Current Client Opinion (criminal cases)

Gennaro Calabrese handled my criminal case in such a way that I never had to worry about the courts; I could concentrate on my family problems. I am a nervous wreck (my case was picked up by the national news) and he "did the talking" for me with the prosecutor and the judge. Further, he is curren...tly a member and team player at a well-respected, Albany law firm, Kindlon & Associates.

  • 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.
