Dedicated guy and worth the retainer!

Lorenzo and his team were the best! I got a speeding ticket in the middle of nowhere. I was worried about it but I never had to go to Court. Lorenzo took care of it. The judge was being difficult and didn’t want to give me a break but Lorenzo went the extra mile and ultimately got me a parking ticket.... No points and no hit to my insurance.

Speeding Ticket in NY

Got a speeding ticket on my way through NY. Mr. Napolitano handled the case and the ticket was dismissed, without going on my record. Highly recommended.

Amazing attorney

I had the best experience with him as my lawyer. He assisted me in a custody order that was resolved in a very short time span. The consult was extremely helpful and he explained what my follows steps should be thoroughly. He was adamant about securing my rights as a parent. I felt heard for the firs...t time in a court room and taken seriously. I could not recommend him more! His understanding in the hardest time of my life was helpful and helped me feel confident going into the court room.

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.
