Very please with Mr. Papa and his expertise

Mr. Papa was very patient and went well above and beyond the call of duty. He took the time to explain to me sometimes more then three times just to ensure I understood what to expect and what could occur as I am not at all savvy with legal jargon. He was always readily available via phone. If I g...ot his voicemail, he would call me late at night or while on vacation even. He cares. This meant quite a lot to me. He took the time to get to know me as a person, not just a client, and lended the "ear" well beyond what most lawyers do. He understood the person he was representing. I couldn't have asked for better representation. Without thought, I highly recommend Mr. Papa. He was wonderful and I am extremely grateful to him for his caring nature, patience and beyond reasonable fees. He is a wonderful attorney. Thank you, Mr. Papa. I don't want to need you in the future, but if I do LOL, I'm going to reach out to you. Thank you for all your help. It's not just because I was victorious, but because you walked me through a very difficult situation and I felt very prepared no matter what the outcome may have been. Best to you. Larissa.

Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Papa is by far one of the best lawyers I have dealt with. He is very courteous, understanding, and will fight for you with everything he has got. He is extremely knowledgeable and really knows his stuff. He takes the time to listen to you and is easy to get a hold of. He returns my calls ...promply. I would highly recommend him and will only deal with him if I should ever need a lawyer again. He has helped me out a great deal and I really do appreciate everything he has done for me. He is truly outstanding and I highly recommend him.

Mr. Edward Papa - Excellent lawyer

I was very pleased with the assistance that Mr. Papa gave us. I found him to be personable, professional and reliable. He has a vast wealth of information and was able to draw from it quickly with complete accuracy. I would recommend him without hesitation to any clients considering him.

Fantastic persistant service that got me the results I envisioned.

After being directed towards Mr Papas services by a freind who had used them, I found I was pleased not only by his knowlege and pleasant down to earth personality, but his ability and willingness to take the time to fully explore and explain my legal options in a professional, freindly manner. I fou...nd him to be a persistant energetic team player and got the impression almost imediately that he was in it to win it no matter what. Communication on every level was second to none throughout the entire legal process, and I actually felt as if I were dealling with someone who was truely concerned that not only would justice be served, but it would be served in a timely and comfortable manner. Mr Papa propelled himself far beyond my expectations, not only in his handling of my case, but by bringing to life an outcome that I doubt would've been the same without his expert services. As a result, he remains my first and only choice in legal representation.

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.
