Pleased with results
I was charged with a felony offense. Attorney Marinaro negotiated for the felony to go away. I plead guilty to summary. He says I can get the summary expunged after 5 years. Very excited. No felony conviction.

Happy Days
I hired Marinaro to negotiate my drug case for reasonable terms. I’m very happy with his professionalism and presence in the courtroom. He is very confortable in the lions den. I will never go anywhere else and refer all friends to him. Great team of people in the office. Can’t get better!!
