ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

Let me just say that AnneMarie is THE BEST ATTORNEY IN THE WORLD!! My juvenile son was jumped at school and made a stupid mistake in retaliation. He was facing two felonies and a misdemeanor. We were totally lost-as none of our children had ever been in trouble before. I spoke to a few attorneys that... refused to take the case, and one that said “his case was pretty hopeless and he would more than likely just end up in jail”. I was heart broken and unbelievably scared. My son was placed in a juvenile facility scared out of his mind, and we were unsure of what his future would hold. After my first phone call to her firm I was on the phone with someone from her office instructing me to get a copy of the police report to the office so they could review it. For the first time since he got in trouble I finally felt like someone cared and could help! After meeting with AnneMarie I knew she was our attorney; and we retained her. She definitely is not cheap but you get what you pay for! Someone once told me cheap isn’t good and good isn’t cheap and that advise is SO true; especially when it comes to your freedom and future! We followed AnneMarie’s every instruction and advise. She was able to reason with the state, explain my son’s situation- and the state ultimately agreed to drop the two felonies. She was also able to negiotiate the sentencing for the remaining misdemeanor down to probation, community service and a few other smaller requirements. I cannot tell you how relieved we were! My son has learned and matured so much through this; and I was able to finally breathe a little easier. Anne Marie and Marla-her assistant- are absolutely the best! They explained everything and made us feel at ease during this whole experience. They were empathetic and understanding to his unique situation and made us feel like everything was going to be ok (& we’re right in the end!). I am praying we never need an attorney in the future but God forbid we ever do or know anyone that does we will definitely recommend AnneMarie! THANK YOU ANNEMARIE for working so diligently and relentlessly for my son!

Highly Recommend!

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!

Anne Marie goes above and beyond what is expected

Anne Marie was with me the entire way of my 3 year DUI case. I had a very unique case regarding many details that was unexpected and Anen Marie not only took care of them for me, but she called me endless times to make sure I knew exactly what was in front of me. My expectations were exceeded by her ...willingness, hard work ethic, caring and overall knowledge of what she does. I would suggest Anne Marie for anyone who needs the best DUI lawyer in the State who we have right here in Sarasota.

Amazing professionalism

AnneMarie assisted with an outrageous claim against my son. She was extremely sympathetic and understanding to me while I was loosing my mind with worry. She spent time explaining everything, pros and cons. My son was treated with the upmost care and she delivered on exactly what she said she would d...o. And she kept us fully informed along the way. Hopefully, I will never need to call on her services again, but if I do, I know she is the only one I would consider to represent me.

Quickly Resolved

Ms. Ann Marie Rizzo was able to resolve my 3 charges quickly and actually was able to put them all together instead of fighting them separately. Her knowledge, encouragement and support were immeasurable. I would recommend Ann-Marie Rizzo to anyone.
