She will fight for you!!

Mandy from the beginning knows her stuff. Ms. Petrocelli is very knowledgeable, down to the judges and prosecutor's. Mandy really wants the best for you. Listen we all make mistakes and this is the lawyer you need, when that one poor mistake should not ruin your life. My Felony charge was dismissed, ...I need not say more. Hire Mandy, she will get the job done.

Child Abuse Case

Miss Petrocelli was very professional and listened to me. She got my charges reduced and I’m very happy with the results. Thanks for being a good lawyer and for helping me.

Beware

Hired Ms. Petrocelli to help me with a small matter that seems as if it could either turn out as a slap on the wrist or jail time and a fine for me-depending on how it's handled. So far, she has been very unprofessional. She will not return phone calls or emails regarding my case. All I would like is... an update about what's going on for the next court date. I gave her my retainer and she has just disappeared on me with another court date to go! My advice is to find someone a bit more reliable.

Do not take a chance on your future

I found Pettocelli to not know much about the legal process that she was representing me on. Petrocelli made false claims as to what she would do for my case and did not follow through on anything. Petrocelli did not return phone calls and offered very bad advice. Unfortunately I had to keep her as m...y defence which has cost me my future. I high recommend you DO NOT hire this attorney.
