Detached Personality

He represented me years ago in a divorce pfa that was being used as a tactic and not because it was valid. Lets just say Monzo didn't provide any type of argument to the judge he just went along with everything. He was more interested in talking to staff that he knew in the court than representing me.... Take the money and run type of process.

This man saved my family and my life!

Jeff did a great job for me and my family, without him I'd be in a very hard situation, very kind, thoughtful, and knows the correct course to take... He would ask my opinion on a matter for the court, and I trusted him enough to just defer to him... SO, I had a case that went on for just shy of 2 an...d a half yrs...DUI, (multiple offenses (this was a big deal for my family and I...)) He was there every step of the way, and his approach worked! Fantastic trial attorney, he got me 2 not guilty verdicts in under 12 minutes..... This man is what the reviews say.... While Jeff made me no gaurantees that it would end in my favor, he was straight up to me, and said ..." If I did not think you have a shot, I'd tell you to take the deal.... But I do believe there is a chance here.... How do you want to proceed?" That impressed me... As he could have promised the world and I'd probably have bought it ..... But he was honest, he did not tell me a percent of win, because he said that would be unfair to get my hopes up and the jury come back with an unfavorable verdict..... I respect Jeff's character, and his fight .... He is excellent at finding holes in the case and he does a fantastic job of creating doubt... Jeff Monzo helped me way beyond what he was paid for.... His services were worth every penny and if I EVER (hopefully not) EVER, have another legal matter..... He is whom I am calling. Thank you Jeff, from my family and my self!

Criminal defense

Jeff is hands down the best attorney. He is very good about explaining the details of what you could expect and what he direction he is going to take. He cares for his clients rights and best outcome. I will always recommend him to any in need of fighting for their freedom and to make sure they are n...ot wrongfully convicted. Thanks Monzo and Galloway!!!!!!!

Outstanding Family Law Legal Advice

Jeff did an incredible job in assisting my daughter during her child custody hearing. His knowledge of the process made the experience issue free.

Exceptional Attorney

Attorney Jeffrey Monzo was retained to help my son with DUI-related charges. He was extremely professional and caring every step of the way. His knowledge of DUI law and expertise resulted in all charges against my son being dismissed. I would highly recommend Mr. Monzo for criminal defense needs....

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

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.
