Posted by anonymous | June 21, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense
Money hungry coward
He will tell you , you have a case; then will bow down to the prosecution. He hardly advocated for me. There was no fight. I was New to the area and after a phone consult hired Rocco. After paying a couple grand I expected better representation. He's hard to get a hold of, isn't quick to return phone...

SCAM.
Honestly dont know where all the 5-star reviews are coming from. I am from NYC, and got a ticket for reckless driving in VA, hired him to help me in court.

I finally called, and he had all ready gone to court and said i lost because i had a hard judge and he would send me the paperwork. ( the case was over 2 we...
Posted by Alban | January 20, 2015 | Speeding & Traffic Ticket
Worthless
Mr: Rocco assures me that he would take care of the ticket I had which was a speeding ticket 18 miles over the limit. He asked me to take the online driving course and a copy of my good driving record and I did. In the end I was found guilty for speeding he charged me 400$ and he wants another 40...
