    Review Joseph Lariscy

    Great attorney!

    Posted by

    I used Mr. Lariscy for a DUI and could not have been more pleased with the services provided. Mr. Lariscy helped me through every step of the process, even with dealing with my probation officer after the fact. I highly recommend the Lariscy Law Firm to everyone.

    Highly recommended!!

    Mr. Lariscy handled my underage drinking charge and was professional and always kept me in the loop. He did an amazing job and I always felt like he was watching out for my best interest. I talked to several other attorneys who gave me a ranging fee and he stuck to his fee and never tried to charge me more.

    Mr Lariscy and Martha were great.

    Mr. Lariscy fought for my rights and got me way more than I expected for my car accident, along with all of my bills paid! Thank you, and will definitely refer my friends to Lariscy Law Firm if they are stuck in an unfortunate situation like mine. Martha is such an asset to this firm. Very prompt and always responded to questions and concerns promptly.

    Hire Joe Lariscy! He works wonders!

    Mr. Lariscy was my trusting legal advocate while dealing with my DUI charge. He did exactly what he said he would do. His retainer fee was firm. He reduced my consequences and made sure that I kept my license. I am forever grateful for his help.

    Great Lawyer
