Someone who cares about you and is on your side

Mr. Garagozlo represented me for a case. I was terrified and facing jail time. He was amazing, I felt confident in his work, he guided me through the process, and really showed me that he cared about the outcome. I would recommend anyone to him if they need assistance. He is a hardworking, caring, fr...iendly, and calming presence to be around and I am extremely happy that he worked with me, I couldn't have gotten a better outcome and I couldn't have had a better person to represent me! Thank you G&G

Best Lawyer

I moved to Maryland from Detroit and I didn’t know anyone I caught some serious driving charges facing some serious time including Oui, I was scared outta my mind and Mr. Garagozlo helped me threw all my questions and worries he responded threw all my calls and emails and to top it off he got my seri...ous charges dismissed. I have major trust issues including the law and I highly recommend Mr.Garagozlo.

A dependable attorney with excellent results

Mr. Garagozlo, of G&G Legal, has represented me in two cases thus far. Both were criminal proceedings, one in Montgomery County, Maryland, and another in Arlington County, Virginia. Thanks to his representation, all of my charges were promptly dismissed in both counties. Mr. Garagozlo was highly prof...essional, responsive, and understanding. His many years of experience handling criminal cases was in clear display and I am thankful for his representation.

Michael Garagozlo is highly recommended!

Michael Garagozlo provided me with excellent representation. He was thorough, sensitive, and responsive to my legal and personal needs. Michael walked me through the legal procedures I was faced with, and because of his legal experience, he was able to set my anxiety at ease when informing me how he ...was going to help minimize my exposure to legal penalties. It was clear, Micheal is well known in the court room and has daily working relationships with the judges, and prosecutors. His analysis at the beginning of my legal process ended up spot on. I was able to avoid conviction due to Michael Garagozlo's legal representation.
