Every good thing you've read here is true

You messed up but relief is nearby. You want an expert who will also listen to you, explain the situation and your options and put you in the best situation for a positive outcome. Martin is your guy. After you hire him when you are going through waves of freaking out you can come to Avvo and re-r...ead the 100+ positive comments (I've read them all for comfort 8 times by now) and know you've done all you can to help your situation. I put myself in a tough situation. I went out for a few drinks, nothing egregious but when I was leaving a parking lot I goosed it around a corner and squeeled my tires. I was pulled over and declined to talk the the officers about where I was that evening or participate in any sobriety tests. The prosecutors for DUI trials in Lake county are farmed out to a private firm and the state's firm sent their #1 top guy. Martin got us a Not Guilty on DUI and Reckless driving, and a modest fine and court supervision for squealing tires. Martin went head-to-head with the state's top dui prosecutor and left him noticeably pissed while we walked out with a huge W. You'll be comforted by his understanding of Lake county courts and procedures. He will listen to you. We worked together to craft a defense and no point anything that I thought important was left unconsidered. Even though my case hit a complication and dragged on a bit his flat rate fees were clear fair. Quite honestly they were about 75% of what I expected and was willing to pay for a proven winner. He's super busy but will always make time for you. Most importantly, he's a genuinely good guy. There's a reason for Martin's top rating. Do yourself a favor and pick the best. Get the free consult and make your own choice. It's hard to put a price in peace of mind. If you've read this, you've been informed. Unless you have another proven rockstar at your disposal to consider I strongly advise you to go with Martin.

Top notch service

Mr. LaScola was professional from the first moment that I reached out to him. He made efforts to keep me informed of all of the steps that he took to make sure that my case was handled in the best way. At no point did he leave room for doubt that I had made a mistake in retaining his services.

Posted by Chandra | September 8, 2025 | Hired Attorney

Mr. Martin: The Legal Ninja

Mr. LaScola, Thank You again for helping me sort out that traffic citation—you handled it like a legal ninja. I blinked and it was gone! Your professionalism and calm expertise made me feel like I had a secret weapon in my corner. Honestly, if I ever get pulled over again (not that I plan to!), I mig...ht just hand the officer your business card and say, “Talk to my lawyer.” You made a stressful situation surprisingly painless, and I’m seriously grateful.

Posted by John | May 6, 2025 | Consulted Attorney

I hold your professional abilities and commitment in the highest regard.

In today’s commercial legal world, it’s rare to find someone as genuine and knowledgeable as Mr. LaScola. While many attorneys seemed more focused on securing a client, Mr. LaScola stood out by speaking candidly and offering clear, honest advice-whether I chose to hire him. He took the time to answer... all my questions thoroughly, provided valuable guidance free of charge, and even encouraged me to handle my situation independently, understanding the financial hardship I’m currently facing. His empathy, integrity, and expertise are truly exceptional. It’s not often you encounter a professional who combines deep legal knowledge with such sincere compassion for others. I highly recommend reaching out to Mr. LaScola first-you may find you don’t need to look any further.

Best Attorney

I had an excellent experience with Attorney Martin Samuel Lascola. He provided me with a free consultation and gave me honest, straightforward advice. Instead of trying to profit from my situation, he advised me that hiring an attorney wasn’t necessary, as it was only a fine. His honesty and integrit...y truly stood out—he cared more about helping me than simply collecting fees. It’s rare to find someone who values clients’ best interests first. I highly recommend Attorney Lascola for anyone seeking a caring and trustworthy professional. He is a person of integrity before being an attorney.
