TOP NOTCH ATTORNEY

I met John Lauro in 2007 when I desperately needed a criminal attorney. John is an excellent lawyer and handled my case in the most well prepared and professional manner. He instilled confidence in me by always fighting tirelessly on my behalf and making sure I was treated fairly when it seemed the... system wanted to bury me. John confronted both the NBA and the US Attorney for the Eastern District of NY, and handled all of the press like a pro to make sure the truth was exposed. John and the Lauro Firm have also handled several other cases for me dealing with restitution and a Civil matter in 2018. John Lauro and his firm are a FIRST CLASS operation from top to bottom, and return calls and email within minutes, particularly when I needed their expertise the most. John Lauro came highly recommended to me in 2007 and I am thankful that I followed the advice of other top lawyers to use the Lauro Firm.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
