Racine DUI representation was a disappointment

I hired Mr. Parise after I was beaten by Racine PD during a traffic accident. My expectations were very high as I considered him one of the best attorneys in Wisconsin. He did minimal work in my case and charged me higher than other attorney fees. I had pictures and a statement reporting the officers..., and Mr. Parise put them back in a folder and said he would look at them later and see what he could do. My case concluded with an unreasonable outcome and I was given close to the max for my case. I didn't hurt myself or anyone, was still considered a misdemeanor and there was no reason for the way I was treated by Racine PD. Completely share the same experience by other reviews that he "shattered my expectations". Never expected this you're of representation from him!

Don't Fall For Salesmanship

Talked a big game, said all of the things I wanted to hear, seemed very aggressive. This was all right up to the point that I hired him. As soon as I wrote the check, he went limp and did very little work on my case. I wish I had done more research before hiring him. It appears to me that his strateg...y is to take as much money as he can get up front, and eventually negotiate a plea deal. In my opinion, he does very little work for the amount of money that he charges. After doing some research (after I already hired him), it seems to me that he avoids going to trial any way that he can. Be sure to ask him about his trial record, when he last went to trial, and when he last won a trial. After my experience with Mr. Parise, I question the authenticity of some of the reviews that are posted on this site.

Sincerely wish I knew who this person is so that I may discuss with them directly as to how I failed them.

Frank Parise helped me through a very difficult situation.

All I can say about Frank Parise is that we had discussed an acceptable outcome to my case on Day 1 and when everything was said and done, that outcome was accomplished by Mr. Parise. In my case, he was prepared to go to trial as I was, but in the end was able to negotiate a plea deal that was more ...than acceptable considering the charges against me. Consider the fact that I was charged with felony battery and plead guilty to disorderly conduct. Great job Mr. Parise.

Recuring Professionalism

Over the years I have found myself in the precarious position requiring the assistance of an attorney. I have used Mr. Parise many times in all matters specific to his lines of practice. My dealings with Mr. Parise have always been satisfactory and as expected based on his explanations and estimated ...outcomes. I believe his diversity derives from his experience on both sides of the bench as well as on the bench. Quite unique in this arena. I would recommend his practice for anyone seeking a knowledgeable, experienced attorney in his field of expertise.

Excellent Attorney

If you think being falsely accused and charged with a crime you didn't commit only happens in the movies or on TV, think again. That is exactly what happened to my husband. We are from out of State and Frank was referred to us by a attorney friend of the family. After speaking with 3 attorney's wh...o would not take the case stating it would be very difficult to win, we finally found Frank Parise. Frank took our case and to say that we were pleased with his services would be an understatement. During this 3 year ordeal, he explained exactly what to expect and kept us informed every step of the way. He also worked with us as far as he fee was concerned, which most attorney's that we spoke to would not. If you ever find yourself needing an excellent attorney in the Kenosha area, I would highly recommend Frank Parise.
