Roy is a man who will go above and beyond to have more honesty than any other attorney that exists. This man is respected by fellow attorneys and they would hire Roy first over anyone else to represent their own child. I know because I was referred to him by another attorney. I’m glad I was because I had ALL charges dropped for a tremendous drug trafficking case back in college. Roy informed me about mandatory minimums and serious jail time I was facing. It could have been years I faced, had Roy not been the one by my side. He was able to ease my anxiety and work with my family and see a way out of a tough case. This man will fight for you and ensure 110% your outcome is the best possible one. If you have not called up Roy Lisko first for any problem, you made the wrong choice.
Mr. Lisko thoroughly listened to my concerns and what I had hoped to get out of my case. Although he is a very busy man, he always found time to get back to my messages in a prompt manner. I felt like he cared about my needs and did his best to not only win my case, but set me up for success in the future. I would absolutely hire him again if I needed to.

Excellent Service
Roy Lisko provided criminal defense for me in 2013. Roy was very kind to my family and I was able to help me receive a lighter and less serious sentence. Roy will answer all of your questions thoroughly and make sure you know exactly what is going on. He is a veteran in this type of service and will go to great lengths to prove your innocence and argue on your behalf. Years after the incident I still contact Roy when I have any questions and he is happy to take my calls and help where ever he can. Roy is an excellent lawyer and I would be happy to recommend him to anyone facing criminal charges.

I was in a motorcycle accident near State College. Mr. Lisko brought me justice.
I was headed from Western PA to Eastern PA to meet some friends and head up north to Massachusetts for a long motorcycle trip weekend. I drove to through State College to meet up with a friend to drive to Philadelphia. I was driving on a rural road and around a bend when a pick-up truck tried to pass me. Another vehicle was coming the opposite way and the pick-up got back over quickly and clipped my front wheel. I flipped over the front of the bike and into an embankment on the side of the road. Luckily, I was wearing a helmet, but I still sustained several broken ribs, a concussion, a broken clavicle, and dislocated shoulder. The driver stopped to help and called an ambulance. When I found Mr. Lisko, he informed me that the man who hit me was a retired government employee who was well known in the area and that he had a lot of friends in the justice system. Attorney Lisko played hardball with the man's insurance company and kept us from going to trial. He secured a generous settlement for me and my family for which I am extremely grateful. As a boilermaker, I would have lost tens of thousands in wages and probably even more in medical bills. With Attorney Lisko as my lawyer, my family and I are taken care of as a I continue to rehab my injuries and try to get back on my feet. Thank you Mr. Lisko.

I was young and made a mistake. Attorney Lisko saved my career.
As a senior at Penn State, I got into some trouble after police raided a party I was throwing, arrested under-aged students, and found marijuana and paraphernalia in our house. I was in the middle of an internship and had all but been promised a career at the same firm. If I had been convicted of any of the countless charges brought forth upon me or my roommates, I would have lost that opportunity. Attorney Lisko was very knowledgeable and insightful, and during courtroom proceedings he ran the show. I felt proud that he was representing me. Thanks, Roy. You saved my life!

Excellent service and outcome
When my son was in trouble at Penn State University we contacted Attorney Lisko. He spent a lot of time explaining all of the possible outcome to both my son and I. I felt very comfortable putting my son's future in Attorney Lisko's hands. When it was all said and done, we had the best possible outcome and could not have found a better lawyer.
