Driving on Suspension 3rd offence appeals

Mike was very informative about my case and he gave me exactly what I asked for no jail time here in Stafford county and at an affordable rate I will definitely utilize Mr. Pignone's expertise on any legal or civil issues

Best lawyer in DMV

Michael Pignone has a great understanding of the laws for DUI cases as well as misdemeanor drug charges! Mr. Pignone was able to review the facts of my case and determine the best possible outcome for me. He did not go automatically try to find the easiest way to go about having the case settled, but... made sure that as his client I was given the best outcome! No jail time and a short suspension of license is what he was able to have offered to me! I can now get this case behind me and move across the country as I have been attempting to do long before the charges came about. Without Mr.Pignone the outcome would have been entirely different. He is worth every penny and I'm thankful that he was referred to me.

Professional-

I hired Mike through a friends referral for a serious wreckless driving charge. He was thorough, professional, and affordable. He was able to have my ticket resolved efficiently due to his relationship with the prosecutor. I hope I never need him again, but if I do, Mike will be the first call!

Awesome DUI result!!!

I hired Mr. Pignone for a DUI and a refusal. He continued the case 4 times without additional charge to force the prosecutor to provide discovery. Yesterday, they still hadn't given it to us. Mr. Pignone refused to let them continue it again. I ended up with a Reckless Driving, no ASAP classes and no... loss of license. Oh, the refusal was also dismissed. Haven't stop smiling or telling friends about my lawyer. Thanks Mr. P.

Drunken Mistake

When I was looking for a lawyer I was scared, I didn't know what was going to happen, or how to find the best lawyer. Honestly, I think I got super lucky with Mr. Pignone. I met with several lawyers in the Prince William area (there are a lot) , and Mr. Pignone is the best by a mile. He was open and ...honest about the possibilities of my case, and treated me as a peer. He grew up in the Mananas area so he knows and has relationships with many people in the court house. Any questions I had (you'll have a lot) he was ready to answer in a polite and courteous manner. His price was exactly what I could afford. Basically, I'm writing this review to say thank you Mr. Pignone, I don't know were I'd be without you.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
