Poor service from start to finish!!!!!! I want my money back!!!!!!

I was locked up for "failure to appear to court". Lizzi was paid in full after he stated that I was going to be out of jail that Monday when the payment was made. Again, the payment was made in full. I was out of jail Wed night after I cursed them out for not keeping their word. Now, every time I spe...ak with his Secretary(not the lawyer), I find myself calling them. I have a court date on the 18th of this month(today is the 10th of the month) but I can't tell you the time because no one informed me. They lack compassion and they lack professionalism. I am on a mission to make sure no one else get treated like this again. I am now researching information in order to find out where can I go to complain about this because this is not right.

Extremely Pleased

I have used Mr Lizi a few times. From DUI, Misdemeanor possession charges, shoplifting and even helping to eliminate a couple of felony charges (PWID/Manufacturing Marijuana) as a young adult. I was going down the wrong path and if not for Mr. Lizzi and his knowledgeable staff keeping me from being c...onvicted of some rather serious convictions, I'm not sure where I would be today. I highly recommend Mr. Christopher Lizzi and his staff for any of their offered services and would like to thank him and his staff for helping me to go down the path I travel today.

Thank you Mr. Lizzi

Mr. Lizzi assisted me in my case in SC for failure to stop for blue lights. Mr. Lizzi is also is reasonably affordable. After a long wait almost 2 years, the wait paid off he got my charge lowered to a wreckless driving charge. Much better than a felony or misdemeanor charge. I appreciate all the ha...rd work and courtesy of Mr. Lizzi and his firm. Thank you all so much. Jose

This man is god sent!!!!!!

I was charged with CDV 3rd and CDV hand , I walked out the court room with a CDV 1st!!! I only had to pay 130 court cost!!! Absolutely Amazing!!! Honestly I trust no one else!! Thank u !!!! This was far from the first time he has saved me from doing some long time!!

Professional and understanding.

I went to Mr. Lizzi with my DUI case in February. As soon as I spoke with him I was put at ease; he told me what could happen, what he would fight to make happen, and displayed a large measure of confidence regarding my situation. As the months rolled on through this process he kept me up to date wit...h information in a timely manner. His legal staff was extremely kind and helpful. Eventually Mr. Lizzi had my DUI reduced to a DUAC, saving me a lot of money and keeping my criminal record clear. Could not be happier with the outcome and the professionalism that Mr. Lizzi and his Law office has shown. Highly recommended.
