Great Criminal Defense Lawyer

Mr Florio is absolutely the best criminal defense lawyer. hands down . My case was simple but, was very stressful .I wanted to hire the best lawyer for my representation. After researching , I decided to make an appointment with Mr. Florio , whom I instantly hired due to his professionalism, comp...etency, and knowledge of the law. Being a professional I could not afford to have bogus charges on my record. . Mr Florio didn't even once speak on a plea bargain to the DA. Mr Florio is great at getting charges dropped, negotiating a plea bargain, or preparing a case for trial. He crafted the best strategy for my defense, and charges were dismissed. When faced with a misdemeanor or felony criminal charge, hiring Mr Florio as your criminal defense lawyer affords you assistance in understanding the nature of the charges filed , and consequences of a criminal conviction on your record. He's the best!!

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.
