A Lifesaver

I foolishly decided to drive after having drinks and was quickly pulled over and arrested for DUI. I did a few random searches for a dui lawyer. I came across Michelle and decided based on her credentials and great reviews that she would be a good choice to represent me, and i was absolutely right! ... I am business owner who has never had any run-ins with the law, so I didn't know what to do or what to expect. The entire situation had me in a panic, but thanks to Michelle my panic was quickly eased - i told Michelle about my case, she looked it up and suggested ARD. She explained the ARD process and what i could expect, after our initial conversation i gained a small measure of relief. I couldn't have chosen a better lawyer to help me with my DUI. Calling Michelle was the best move i could make. She is responsive, straight forward and sensitive through-out the entire court process. When it comes to DUIs Michelle knows how to act and interact with the court, she is a life saver and I can not recommend her highly enough. If you are facing a DUI, Michelle Fioravanti is the lawyer you want representing you!

Extremely responsive, thorough, and compassionate

I asked Michelle if she could assist with a Septa citation. She responded to my message immediately with a detailed plan and spoke about her previous experience with such cases. She moved to have the charges dismissed and the record expunged, and everything has moved smoothly toward that goal. Michel...le was excellent at explaining exactly how the process works and keeping me updated with the latest developments. I can also speak to her compassion -- when we met at the court house, she took a moment to talk with someone in need and connect him with the right people. I wholeheartedly recommend hiring Michelle!

Auspicious, noteworthy and helpful. Michelle is a great lawyer with experience and knowledge. She cares

I made a mistake and was charged with a DUI, simple assault, and reckless endangerment of another person (REAP). I had never required a lawyer before, and did not know what to do, or who to turn to. Furthermore, due to immigration issues, I could not afford to be found guilty of the REAP or simple a...ssault charges. At least for me, this was a very high-stakes situation. After contacting (and visiting) 3 different lawyers, I got a call back from Michelle, and I knew I was going to go with her. I don't want to get into details about the other lawyers, but in that one conversation she did for me what the others did not. She is very succinct and professional. She did not give me false hope, but real assurance. She is trustworthy. She worked very well and was very responsive throughout my case. She managed to remove all charges, except for the DUI. I received the minimum legal sentence (anything below would be against the law). Her experience (25+ years!) and knowledge kept me at ease. Her ability to communicate clearly, answer my detailed questions, and concise weighing and presentation of available options impressed me. I said it before, she gave me real assurance. Furthermore, I found out that my court-appointed sentence (to serve time) coincided with very important situation at work, Anyone who knows the Philadelphia justice system, would understand how tough it is to CHANGE the scheduling and date of your sentence. After communicating my dilemma to her, I received a change of date the very next day. Now, this may only be important to me, but she moved my mountain, again. This is why she's my favorite lawyer.

Recommend!

I had a DUI and Michelle was fantastic the whole way. She explained everything to me as it was happening and it really made me feel at ease. Then she actually won my case which I am forever grateful to her for.

Best DUI/DWI

If you are looking for the best DUI/DWI lawyer in the Philadelphia area, you've found her. Michelle knows the system inside and out, is friendly , and is experienced and hardworking enough to get you the results that you are looking for. I can't imagine another lawyer who will LISTEN to and FIGHT ...for her clients better or who is more experienced at at MAKING DEALS and getting people off with the least amount of stress. I would recommend her to anyone and would hire her again in a SECOND. THE BEST!!!
