This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I had Charges for three years

Mr. Broccoletti was the only lawyer that could get my case drop and I had two other lawyers before him. He knew I was innocent and believe in me. He treats you fairly and like family. He is a super lawyer. I recommend every one who is dealing with criminals charges to seek him for their defense. ...Very professional and fights for his clients.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
