Happy with the Services

I looked for legal services online and choose this firm based on reviews. They were hired to represent me in a traffic matter, which would have resulted in fines and 4 points. My case took about 12 weeks. I paid a small fine and was not deduct any points. This was the outcome I was hoping for and I ...am happy with the results. Would use this firm and the services again in future without hesitation.

The Best!

I hired Mr. Riotto after my significant other was charged with a Parole Violation. I knew that with my boyfriend's prior convictions he could do up to 2 years in prison for this violation. We were both scared and I felt so helpless in this situation. I searched google for attornies in the area that d...eal with parole violations. Riotto law was the first one that came up. Chelsea answered and I explained everything. She was so nice and I didn't feel like I was being judged at all. She got Mr Riotto on the phone and he was super nice, down to earth , non-judgemental, and told me he would make sure we got the best possible outcome. And that is exactly what he did. There were some obstacles along the way due to my boyfriends past felonies and medical issues, but Mr Riotto never quit on me. Although Mr Riotto and his team work very hard and are super busy, they took the time to return ALL of my phone calls and emails....and I called and emailed A LOT! ;-) His office made what felt like a nightmare to me so much better. Mr Riotto facilitated a transfer to a 28 day program in lieu of any prison time. I can positively say that if I did not hire Mr Riotto, the outcome would have not been good. I ever need any type of legal representation again, I wouldn't want anyone else by my side. Thank you Mr Riotto and your whole team! I honestly can't thank you enough!!!!

Kind, competent, helpful

Everyone I've talked to in this office has always been kind and very helpful. I hired them to help with a speeding ticket and they were able to get it thrown out. I've used them a couple of times now and am very happy with the outcomes and how well they've communicated with me.

Good lawyer in the area

I am glad to have found the Law Office of James Riotto to take care of a traffic violation matter for me and my wife. The stuff is great they communicate well with their clients and make sure they answer them all the questions they have. Me and my wife had about 7 tickets, Mr Riotto helped us reduce ...all the tickets with less fine. Thank you for the help you guys do to the community. I would strongly recommend it.

Made a difficult process much easier

My husband and I contacted James regarding an early termination of probation. James and his team made my husband and I feel extremely comfortable and informed. They consistently checked in with us and alerted us when there were any updates on our case. They fought hard for us and lined us up for suc...cess. Due to the teams hard work and experience we were able to win our case. We can't thank James enough for our pleasant experience in a tough situation.
