This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

excellent counsel

Mr.Wysocki represented my case with the utmost professionalism, knowledge and a excellent work ethic. I highly recommend Mr.Wysocki for counsel because he will work hard for you.

Professional, fair

Mr. Wysocki advised us on family court matter. Quick action was warranted and he arranged to see us that very evening. He told us how the judge would interpret the case, how we could handle the matter ourselves and save legal fees though added if we were more comfortable with his representation that ...he would accommodate us. We appeared at the court date ourselves, responded as he had advised and not only accomplished what we needed to do but averted a protracted court battle and further feelings of animus between family members. We are grateful. If you do meet with Mr. Wysocki come prepared. He will not want to know how you feel but instead will ask exactly what was said and exactly what happened including dates, times, sequence of events etc. His mind works at warp speed. Perhaps other attorneys will let you vent , but for my money, I'd rather have someone who will level with me and not mince words. Especially when billing by the hour. You'll do well to have him in your corner.

Kick ass lawyer

Mr. Wysocki represented my son in a criminal matter. He is very professional, always returned our calls, and gave us the best representation that money could buy! I would, and often do, refer him to anyone who needs help.

Great Attorney

My review is great for Mr. Wysocki. I hired him for my divorce. I am still in process, however, every time I make an appointment or have any questions, they are quickly answered and Mr. Wysocki and his staff are readily available. He is very professional and courteous. He is intimidating, but I'd pr...efer a firm attorney over a push-over any day.

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.
