Best possible outcome

I have never been through anything like this. I contacted Randy for a free consultation when I saw his previous experience with the district attorney's office and after speaking to him hired him immediately. Randy treated me kindly and honestly throughout the entire process. He returns phone calls im...mediately. Thanks to Randy the charges presented will be dismissed and expunged in one year. I could not hope for a better outcome to enable me employment and housing opportunities in the future. Thanks Randy!

The best for a reason !!

LISTEN TO THE REVIEWS! From the moment I met Randy , I knew I was in good hands. I was facing charges that had the weight to ruin my entire career. I explained my situation and Randy took immediate action. He laid it all out for me and had great anticipation. When you are stuck in this kind of situat...ion you want a lawyer like Randy. He is strong ,aggressive, and experienced. He sees things others may over look and that may be the one thing that keeps you from getting the best outcome. Starting this … I didn’t know what the outcome would be. I was already anticipating the worst. Randy reassured me and answered any concern or question I had. He answered quickly and was always available. I am so grateful to have chose him to represent me. He got me the best possible outcome I could ever receive. I can finally breathe.

TOP NOTCH Professional with true compassion for his clients!

From the moment Randall Ricciuti answered my initial phone call for legal counsel to the present time, he has been a consummate professional graced with an extra measure of kindness and humanity. I felt SO comforted by his ability to calm my anxiety (having no knowledge of the process) and to assure... me that he would walk me through the steps necessary to see my case through. He DID just that! He kept in contact with me, communicated my responsibilities, and directed me accordingly. I am sincerely grateful for the outcome of my case which Randall fought to obtain for me. What could have been adversely life changing for me, is now Hope restored because of Randall's efforts on my behalf. I can't say enough about Randall Ricciuti...While I was in tears (on my initial phone consultation with Randall) I instantly felt that I could exhale when he compassionately said, "Don't worry, I'll help you.". This attorney/Gentleman is CLASS personified!!! He walked me through every stage of the process like a beacon of light...And for that, I will forever be grateful! Randall exudes confidence in his craft which commands a quiet and well-deserved respect. This attorney was a hand-picked God send in my case - I Have NO DOUBT!! I would, and will in the future, recommend Randall Ricciuti to anyone seeking counsel in his area of law because my experience with him and his legal expertise in his field is TOP NOTCH!! Thank YOU!!

Extremely helpful and knowledgable

I am beyond grateful for the service, time and effort that Mr. Randall Ricciuti was able to put towards my case. I made a poor decision that had the potential to affect my future, my goals and my career, thankfully Mr. Ricciuti was there to guide my next steps and ensure the most positive outcome tha...t I could have imagined. Though my lack of knowledge as to how the criminal justice system works initially scared me, Mr. Ricciuti was always available to talk on the phone or answer text messages to walk me through the processes in a way that I was able to understand how it would impact me. In addition to his excellence in providing me with answers, Mr. Randall Ricciuti showed me the most professional and kind behavior that I could have asked for. On the day of my hearing, myself and everyone else assigned to that court room were to wait for the Judge in the courtroom together. Out of respect to me and my privacy, Mr. Ricciuti waited outside the room of people to meet with the officer associated with my case so as to not violate my privacy by discussing the case in front of people who had no concern with it or with my personal information. Mr. Ricciuti was able to get my citation for carrying a false identification card dismissed and expunged from my record and for that, I am eternally grateful for his help and his time.

A 9,000 lb weight lifted off of my shoulders thanks to Randy!

I fell into a bad situation where I was charged with public intox, disorderly conduct and harassment. As this is my first time ever getting in trouble with the legal system, a family friend referred us to Attorney Ricciuti for counsel. He made me feel really good about the outcome of my case, had a g...reat strategy and was always there to answer questions for me. On the day of my hearing, he was on top of everything and sat with myself and my father. He made me feel really comfortable and at ease and took care of everything for me. I got 12 hours of community service in the end and was really happy with the way everything worked out. I will recommend Randy to anyone who needs a lawyer for these types of matters because he understands that it is a mistake and wants to help you put it behind you! Now I can graduate college in a week without this horrible incident weighing on me. Thank you Randy!
