Stellar Legal Service

My experience with Mr. Garagozlo was exceptional. I adhered to the prudent advice he offered. As a result, my traffic citation was reduced, sparing me four points on my driving record and resulting in a reduced fine. He was very accommodating, especially considering that I am an out-of-state driver, ...and his services were very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend Mr. Garagozlo for any of your legal needs.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
