Best attorney in PA

I was faced with the possibility of not seeing my newborn daughter for. I reached out to Enrico and immediately knew he was the right attorney for my situation. With his vast knowledge, his finesse and extreme attention to every detail, he faught for my rights as a father. He paid special attention ...to me as a person and took the interest of my child first and foremost. I can honestly say that without Enrico, I'm not sure where I'd be today. He faught for custody and child support to find a fair and balanced outcome for me and my daughters mother. If you are undecided about which attorney to retain, I highly recommend Enrico and his staff. They are knowledgeable and caring, ready for whatever might come in to play to reach a suitable and fair arrangement. Thank you Enrico for everything you've done for me and my family! My daughter is happy and well adjusted. Reach out to Enrico and his staff for all your family law needs, you won't be sorry and can thank me later! Best of luck to anyone in need of a family lawyer Enrico is hands down, the best!

Best trial attorney in Montco

Enrico helped me win a very favorable outcome in my high conflict custody case. He knew just what questions to ask to get me to speak to the points I wanted heard during my testimony and knew what questions to ask my ex in cross examination to help get my main points across in front of the judge, whi...le maintaining an exceptional level of professionalism. While I hope I won’t have to use his expertise again, he will be the first person I call if I do. If you find yourself needing a custody lawyer, you will not be disappointed with Enrico.

Amazing attorney

Enrico has been working on my complex custody and PFA case since June and I could not be happier with his advocacy, expertise and overall demeanor. He handled a very messy and contentious case with professionalism and extensive legal knowledge. He made me feel so confident and capable when I thought ...I may have to testify, but he was able to come to a custody agreement with opposing counsel at the 11th hour of a 2nd day protracted custody trial. He was always up front and direct with my questions (and I had a lot), always answered me quickly and worked with me regarding finances and billing. Enrico is an ethical, moral and competent attorney and I would recommend him and his partner Maria (who wrote up a beautifully worded motion for me) to anyone in need of representation for custody matters. I am very happy with the custody order he negotiated between me and my son's father.

Divorce, Support, PFA, and Custody

Mr. Pagnanelli is a highly intelligent, and skilled family law attorney. He represented me on a hotly contested divorce, and custody case, with the other side playing dirty. With his help, I obtained very favorable outcomes on each case that finalized. His sister Maria repped me in court, and fiercel...y fought back extensive and outlandish demands from opposing counsel, which ultimately tipped the divorce in my favor. She is articulate while answering questions. They also offer comparably affordable rates for their service.
