Iannetti Review

Mr. Paul Iannetti was refereed to me by a trusted family member, in whom I am greatly pleased. The initial information provided from a court case can be, at best, overwhelming. Mr. Iannetti compassionately reviewed my case with me, ensuring I was fully educated on all options involved. He provided pr...ompt, knowledgeable information both on short notice and in scheduled meetings. Furthermore, he, on every applicable occasion, provide courtesy emails and reminders regarding upcoming court dates, times, locations and case statuses. Mr. Iannetti was easy to get a hold of and answered my many questions throughout the court process. I, in concurrence with my family, highly recommend the knowledgeable experience of Mr, Iannetti.

Excellent lawyer for representation in criminal matters

This is my first contact with the criminal justice system, although I am over 40, and therefore the first time I needed a criminal lawyer. I was unwilling to go into a criminal court proceeding without legal representation. Mr. Iannetti was recommended to me by an excellent family lawyer that han...dled my divorce. After the initial consultation, Mr. Iannetti offered to handle my case for a flat fee; this fee would cover everything up to trial. If a trial was needed, further fees would be needed. I felt the billing was very fair. During this difficult process, Mr. Iannetti has helped me out tremendously, guiding me through the process of criminal law, as it pertains to the matter in which I have been accused. The only minor issue is that I was in need of additional information as to what to expect in/from the criminal process than probably most of the people represented by criminal lawyers, since I've never been through the process before. Mr. Iannetti has such a wealth of experience in these matters, such that he knows each step of the process intimately. I solved this very minor issue easily by asking effective questions. Simply by asking him, I was able to find out where we were in the proceedings and to find out not to worry too much about the outcome. He has taken charge of all of the casework and files, and contact with the legal system. In my case, I was not required to post money for bond, which was better than expected. Mr. Iannetti's leadership role in this case has limited my involvement to appearing in court before the District Justice for mere minutes at a time, with absolutely no other work needed on my part at all. Mr. Iannetti has been present and on time for the three court dates / appearances in my case so far. He has been instrumental in negotiating a deal with the district justice that is, I belive, pretty much the best possible in my situation. If all goes as planned, I will walk away from my issue with no lasting repercussions and no criminal record whatsoever, thanks to Mr. Iannetti's skill, knowledge and negotiation abilities. While this matter will probably not go to trial, based on my discussions woth Mr. Iannetti I got the impression that he would be extremely effective in court. I am very happy I retained a lawyer for my defense, and that Mr. Iannetti has been so effective!
