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!

A Rare Find

I've dealt with lawyers frequently enough, both professionally and personally, to know that many of them can be severely challenged when it comes to listening to and respecting their clients and leaving their egos at the door. Michelle is such a refreshing change from the stereotypical way many lawy...ers do business. Aside from being bright and experienced, she’s down-to-earth and approachable, listens well, cares about her clients, and is creative and adaptable in how she approaches client needs and goals. I engaged Michelle to represent me in defending against a questionable speeding citation that if sustained would have resulted in a license suspension, points on my untarnished driving record and higher insurance costs. Michelle was able to achieve a fantastic result that kept my driving record unblemished. It is rare to be able to secure a lawyer with a sharp legal mind who also has such strong appealing personal attributes, including listening skills. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone in need of legal services.

Very knowledgeable , compassionate and thorough attorney

Michelle is very knowledgeable , compassionate and thorough attorney who represented me in criminal case. From the day I talked to her, I felt that I am on right track to have good outcome, and I was not wrong. Her advice was spot on and it help me lot. She gave me her phone number and she was qu...ick to return phone calls and messages. She is very familiar with how court works and she achieved best possible outcome for me. I highly recommend Michelle A. Fioravanti.

Great attorney for a juvenile case!

We hired Michelle one year ago for a juvenile case. Our first conversation lasted about 1 1/2 hrs as she listened to every detail. We were dealing with an over zealous state trooper for our son giving the DA a false impression. After a year of battling we finally got the result we were hoping for and... deserved. She advised us every step of the way making a stressful situation alittle better for our family. We would highly recommend her for any juvenile matter. I don't typically write reviews. In fact this is about the third review I ever done. We felt Michelle was worthy of this and deserved some credit for her fight. I should also mention her fees are very reasonable for the average person and she doesn't tack on small fees along the way that most others tend to do. She also gave us her cell phone for any questions we had or updates after office hours. That's almost unheard of today.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST DUI LAWYER !!!

I am a student at Villanova University, and unfortunately I was arrested for a DUI at the beginning of last semester. I was incredibly stupid, thinking I could safely drive the short distance to my apartment. I was stopped by the police for swerving on the road and not being able to stay in my lane.... They gave me some tests at the location, arrested me, and took me to the police station for a breath test. I was embarrassed and ashamed; all I could think about was how I wasted the last 3 years of my life at Villanova because no one would hire me in the financial field with this arrest. I needed a good lawyer to help me with the situation. I researched the top lawyers for DUI, and narrowed my choices to the 3 that were the most qualified. I spoke to all 3 lawyers, and from the start Michelle was the most knowledgeable, answering all of my questions - and trust me, I had many questions! And as Villanova alumni, she was very compassionate and understood my fear of not getting a job. We discussed the circumstances of the arrest, and decided it would be best if I applied for the ARD program. She thoroughly described the program, and I was relieved to learn that if I stayed out of trouble the charges would be dismissed and Michelle could file a petition to expunge my record. I felt so much better after hearing a potential employer wouldn't find what happened. I am happy to say I am almost finished my ARD and look forward to the day the DUI is dismissed. I am happy that Michelle was there to guide and assist me. I would whole-heartedly refer her to anyone arrested for a DUI or other criminal matter. She saved my future, and I very grateful for everything she has done for me.
