I am a skilled bilingual attorney (Spanish/English) practicing Criminal and Family Law.
In my Criminal Law practice, I am a trial attorney who zealously represents her clients in misdemeanor and felony cases, from their first appearance through trial. I have an excellent success rate and work closely with my clients to help them to understand the legal process and protect their rights.
In my Family Law practice, I work with my clients to navigate the stress that these type of cases bring, while fighting to achieve a positive outcome for them and their family. I have extensive courtroom experience and will confidently represent my clients in any court appearance. Additionally, my ability to speak Spanish allows my Spanish speaking clients to communicate directly with me, without the need or expense of an interpreter.

I cannot say enough about Attorney Torselli. She is a very knowledgeable, caring and gifted attorney- one of the absolute best out there! I worked with Paola several years ago when she was the lead attorney in a courtroom we were assigned to as Assistant Public Defenders. She was a wonderful mentor/lead attorney and I learned so much from her! I would highly recommend Attorney Torselli!
