Philip M. Masorti

One of the worst experiences in my life. Told me everything I wanted to hear at the first visit but once that check cleared, he changed. Wouldn’t get back to me, was 45 minutes late for preliminary hearing without giving me or the court a heads up. Tried to convince me to plea to exactly what I was c...harged with and wanted more money. Eventually got so bad I had to get another attorney. Well that attorney delivered everything Phil originally promised and more.

I don't know where to begin for this review. From our initial consultation to now (ongoing case), this lawyer has done nothing but aggravate my anxiety and my problem. I was charged with a criminal offense so I contacted this lawyer upon reading many positive reviews. He contacted me and agreed to me...et on that very day. He saw a very scared kid who was overwhelmed with anxiety. At the meeting, I described my situation and he told me that everything was going to be fine and told me to sign a retainer fee. I was in a very vulnerable state which he further exasperated when he said he doesn't have time and needs to go visit his mother for the weekend. I couldn't think clearly and I signed it. Now throughout the whole case, Phil never gave me this comfortable feeling that he's got my case taken care of. One day, he was ignoring my calls/messages so I even showed up at his office to see him surprised and agitated to see me show up so randomly. Although that's one of MANY things that I unfortunately dealt with, I want to focus on the what my situation is now. Currently, my case is being continued when Phil said I would only get an ARD. I don't know what to do. I didn't want to do this review but people should be warned about how they could be treated. I don't want ANYONE to go through what I went through dealing with this lawyer.

A lifesaver may seem to be a strong word, but it is not when you are facing a felony record for life any potential jailtime. When facing a serious case which could have resulted in a felony record, out of talking to at least 10 lawyers, Mr. Masorti stood out the most. His intelligence, grace, and ded...ication will protect you all the time at any time. He will do work without ever giving you tension, with you not even realizing the work he is putting into the case. Out of multiple charges that would have made me a felon, Mr. Masorti was able to get everything downgraded to one single misdemeanor charge, that after one year of the ARD program (pre-trial invertion, probation) that only required a court check in online once a month, would get expunged. He stands out in my mind as THE most impressive lawyer I have ever met. You cannot go wrong and will never question your decision in choosing Mr. Masorti.

Masorti Law Group is a firm that I would recommend to anyone looking for legal advice. Philip is an extremely approachable, friendly, and professional lawyer who will look out for you like you're family. I got in trouble for a felony level crime while on ARD and Philip managed to get me an extended A...RD sentence instead of jail/prison time. He is compassionate and extremely driven to help his clients, and will also keep you informed and updated every step of the way. I can not advocate enough for the legal services of Masorti Law Group.

Phil is a very professional and well known attorney in State College who went out above and beyond for me with my case. You can tell right off the bat that he is a very intelligent and outgoing lawyer. Phil seems to know everyone in State College/ Centre County and everyone knows him. Phil has given ...me much legal relief and I am confident in saying that he will work on any cases he accepts with ferocity and will get you the best legal results possible. When you catch yourself in a difficult legal situation, you want to have Phil Masorti in your corner to protect you. Plain and simple.
