Highly recommend !

I've used the Curcio Law Firm in a number of matters spanning a variety of legal areas. Curcio is by far my "go to" firm because they are easy to work with and provide excellent work at a reasonable price. I especially appreciate that the work is often done on an affordable fixed price basis.

Great Experience - Highly Recommended

Nick was an amazing part of our legal team. We also knew he was working hard on our behalf and he really made the experience as positive as it could be under the circumstances. We were always being supported in our interests and would definitely use him and his firm again for any of our future lega...l needs.

Schaaf vs Forbes

I am beyond grateful for the way Nick stepped up and handled our case. His knowledge of the law and willingness to go the extra mile is invaluable. He is respectful, professional, and knows how to handle issues in the upper courts with confidence. He is trustworthy and I would recommend him to anyone...!

Curcio Law Firm issues legal opinion to the Pontiac City Clerk that validates Clerk's decision about medical marihuana zoning

I hired Nick Curcio, Esq. to draft independent legal opinions about medical marihuana and the Pontiac Planning Commission. Attorney Curcio's opinion on locational requirements for marijuana growers and processors confirmed my decision as the Clerk that the Pontiac Medical Marihuana Zoning Ordinance... limits growers and processors to locating into two overlay districts. I found Attorney Curcio to be very knowledgeable about both municipal and zoning law. I highly recommend him as a municipal zoning lawyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
