I had the misfortune of being arrested for DUI. It is a humbling and frightening experience. I had the good fortune of retaining Ms. Rizzo and her Firm to defend and assist me through the process. The first thing that struck me about Ms. Rizzo was her absolute respect for the Law Enforcement Officers... and the Prosecutors in my case. Because of that respect, channels of communication were always open to discuss my case. Second, Ms. Rizzo had a masterful understanding of the DUI process and demonstrated calm logical thinking that resulted in a favorable outcome for my case after 3 1/2 years. Third, Ms. Rizzo was awarded a Scientific Certification during her work on my case. It is an extraordinary individual that can manage what I'm guessing is a heavy caseload, attend school, and be awarded a Certification that fewer than 50 Attorneys in the United States have attained. Last, Ms. Rizzo's Firm and Staff were all extraordinarily polite and responsive to whatever concerns I had. Ms. Rizzo and her Firm are the highest examples of a Legal System that can still work for the good of all individuals with the right representation.

We were extremely luck to find AnneMarie! We were visiting Florida when our daughter was arrested. Having no idea what to do, we began researching options. From the first call we felt we had found the right person. She helped calm our fears and walked us through a most difficult time. She guided us t...hrough the bonding process and was readily available throughout the entire legal matter. AnneMarie was (and is) kind, caring, personable and knowledgeable. She dedicated herself to finding the best outcome for the situation. She was worth every penny of her fee as now the charges have been dismissed. We couldn't have found a better attorney!

AnneMarie is one of the sharpest, hard working, and educated attorneys in Florida. She will fight relentlessly for her clients and uses science and case law to prove her case. She has worked as a prosecutor and defense attorney and true understand what it takes and all the angles used to win her case...s. She has helped me and many I know through difficult times. AnneMarie is an advocate and believer in the system but understands this system needs balance. She is a class act!

We contacted Anne-Marie about a very complex justice issue involving two Canadians with charges in Florida. It was very difficult to manage, a disease, an emergency return to Canada, and so on. We did not speak a word in English, so our conversations were only by e-mail and text. She responded ...quickly to our needs. Anne-Marie is a dedicated lawyer available at all times (days, evenings, weekends and even holidays). Today she has won the case and, at a very reasonable time, has helped us treat a sick man in Canada. Doing justice is never easy and it is very prudent to be surrounded by a good team of experience

AnneMarie represented one of my closest friends in an incredibly difficult case – he was in big trouble. He came to me for help in finding him a good criminal defense lawyer in Florida. A good friend of his recommended AnneMarie. We met with her and were immediately impressed. She was prepared, atten...tive, compassionate and realistic. She came up with a plan to get him the best result possible – and then executed on it. AnneMarie, Darren and the entire office were all tremendous. They treated my friend (and me and his family) with love, respect and dignity. AnneMarie fought hard for a fair and reasonable punishment. Her effort was extraordinary - beyond what we expected. She was relentless. In the end, the result was much better than expected and it was all because of her hard-work, preparation and dedication. My friend has hope - something he lost when he was arrested. I can't make a strong enough recommendation for AnneMarie. I am an attorney who practices in CT. I was involved in the case as an advisor, only to help guide my friend in trouble. I can honestly say that I learned a ton from AnneMarie about what it takes to be a great advocate during a very, very difficult situation. If you are in legal trouble in Florida and you want someone who has your back, from beginning to end, and if you want someone who will work hard and treat you with respect and dignity, then a call to AnneMarie is the first and only call you should make.I can't make a strong enough recommendation for AnneMarie.
