Review Andrew Mongelluzzi

Pool contractor

Posted by

Pool contractor did not complete job and did sub par work. I am disabled and the contractor took advantage of that. Andrew Mongelluzzi handled the whole case and got me a full refund for work not done or done poorly. Very customer friendly.

Helped us win an insurance company claim denial

Posted by

We hired Andrew to help us when our insurance company denied our claim when water and sewage damage completely destroyed our Florica Condominium. Even though Andrew made several phone calls and wrote an initial letter, the company continued to deny our claim. He was persistent and continued to help us negotiate with the company until we finally received a fair monetary settlement. He was always quick to respond, helpful, and courteous when working with us. I would recommend him to anyone who is fighting an unjust insurance settlement.

Caring and Aggressive

Attorney Mongelluzzi and his team provided excellent and quality service. I always felt that my needs were met and that the firm was invested in me and my case. The quality services I received at Mongelluzzi's firm were remarkable. From the initial meeting they were responsive to my calls, questions and concerns. All issues were handled professionally and timely were easily accessible, got back to me quickly, aggressive and got me the results that I wanted. Attorney Mongelluzzi and his staff all gave my case their personal attention and provided the quality of work that anyone would want when hiring a attorney.

Business lawyer on your side

As a business owner for 12 years I have seen my fair share of ups and downs. Some of the downs would include landlord/tenant disputes and creditors that may have not been fulfilled to agreement. Andrew has met both of these situations for me in a timely, positive, and affordable manner.

Frank Genco, Commercial real estate Attorney on Apr 12, 2017
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I strongly endorse Andrew Mongelluzzi. He is a very skilled and able business attorney focused on customer service and results. On the front end, Andrew deftly advises new businesses on organizing properly, acquiring necessary licenses, contracting with vendors & customers, and dealing with various compliance issues that may arise. On the back end when things go south, Andrew counsels and navigates businesses through complex commercial disputes and aggressively represents them in negotiations, mediation, arbitration, and in litigation so that businesses can legally move on and get back to business. Andrew's ability to identify legal issues and approaches to resolve business-related issues is a strength that I have learned from and professionally relied upon in approaching the business matters and cases that I handle. I regularly refer business to Andrew knowing that he will diligently represent his business clients and their best interests. Frank N. Genco, Florida Bar No. 440086

I have known Andrew throughout law school and his professional career. A client can always count on him to be prepared and thorough. Some attorneys are good lawyers or good people, but few are both. Andrew is both and I recommend him without reservation.
