"I first met Phil 20 years ago when we were both beginning our careers at the Public Defender's office. He had been working there for a little while when I started and he pretty much knew what he was doing when I showed up. He immediately took me under his wing and showed me the ropes, and I believe I am a better lawyer even today for that start that he gave me. I cannot thank, or praise, him enough for that. Phil has a unique ability to grasp facts and law quickly and completely. His legal analysis is virtually flawless, and courtroom demeanor is exactly what is needed for effective persuasion of both judges and juries. I can't stress enough that, if I'm ever in a position to need his services, I wouldn't want anyone else in my corner."
"I am happy to endorse Phil. I recently had the opportunity to work with Phil. He was the opposing attorney in a lawsuit. I appreciated that while being an advocate for his client, he was still courteous and professional to work with."
"I've worked with Philip Dragonetti on numerous cases over the past ten years. Philip is an excellent trial lawyer and his ability to apply the law to advocate for his clients is superb. I strongly endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. He has been extremely helpful in criminal matters. Very knowledgeable in all areas of criminal law."
"I have worked with Phil on a number of cases and have always been impressed by his intelligence, thoroughness, and his commitment to his clients. Phil is well-versed in criminal law; he is an excellent attorney. I endorse this lawyer."
