Awesome Lawyer

I recommend Michael Pignone because I had a dui case and he worked very hard to help my case. Being this was my second offense he was very clear and straight forward with the outcome. He is very understanding and truly cares about the people he represents and takes his cases very serious. I would def...initely recommend him to anyone who has a situation. I was given a restricted license for 6 months and have to do classes. I have to be honest I feared jail time but he truly investigated my case and help with me having to do just those two things. He is awesome and worked with me all the way through and specially understanding my situation.

2nd DUI offense

Mike is awesome, this was my second time working with him and has saved me both times. He was able to save me from mandatory jail time most importantly.. dropped my 2nd dui offense to a 1st offsense. Hes flexible with appts and always returned a phone call/text. He kept me informed on what’s going on... and the time he put into working on my case and where we would be going with the case... always straight forward with what could have happened and what could be possible.. affordable and willing to work with you. would definitely definitely recommend him! Thanks again Mike!

Outstanding lawyer.

I was referred to Mr Pignone by a coworker. He spoke with me over the phone about my case and clearly layed out how it could go for me. Met with Mr Pignone qt his office and we went over my case. He was very detailed on how the whole process was and assured me he would do everything he can to help me.... I had a few questions along the way and texted Mr Pignone which he promptly replied back. I would highly recommend Mr Pignone.

DUI 1st Offense

I sat down with Mike and explained I was facing a DUI with a high BAC level. I detailed the event, some of my concerns with the arrest, and how the BAC test was given to me at the station. He sat and actively listened to me. After I was done, Mike was straight forward and honest with me about my situ...ation and what were the possible outcomes, including possible jail time. Mike worked hard researching my case and going over discovery. In the end, he was able to get my BAC level removed from record which in turn took jail time off the table. I highly recommend Mike for his professionalism, expertise, and results in my situation.
