I would've paid any amount for my freedom, however, he's very reasonable
THIRD DUI in less than a year, yes you read that correctly, I needed help, I had many letters from attorneys offering their help, when I called some didn't answer, some couldn't help unless I retained them and so on, however, Mr. Colasessano not only answered all questions, he was also very honest in stating the obvious 3 DUI'S in less than a year not great, however, he had a plan. I followed everything that was requested to help in my defense. And after about a year and a half in and out of court, it was time. I was to receive my sentence. The judge looked over all programs, meetings, volunteer work I had completed, as requested by Mr. Colasessano. Mr. Colasessano spoke and added a few very professional yet kind words about my character, the judge asked what Mr. Colasessano's recommendation was along with what the prosecution wanted, they both agreed, I was to receive Public Intoxication with time served and 2 year probation, which I had almost completed. I couldn't believe this was the real outcome, this was unheard of, I broke down in tears because, it seemed unreal but because he was always involved every step of the way. He's an amazing, honest, fair, intelligent, he does not sugar coating the truth, but offers comfort because of his abilities that being said he will put his all into any clients case.
I have worked with this attorney several times and each time he was very up front and honest about both the cost to retain him as well as the case itself. He even made some suggestions of things to try before I hired a lawyer. I really appreciated that!!

Honest and reliable attorney
I have worked with this attorney several times and each time he was very up front and honest about both the cost to retain him as well as the case itself. He even made some suggestions of things to try before I hired a lawyer. I really appreciated that!!
