Nicholas M. Carrescia

I hired Nicholas Carrescia to handle a criminal matter I found myself involved in. Having never been in a similar situation I was completely unprepared. Nicholas walked me through exactly what the charges were, what the penalties could be as well as all potential outcomes that were possible. He spoke... plainly about my situation and gave honest answers knowing that they wouldn't be what I would want to hear but they would be what I needed to hear. He kept me apprised of all developments as they occurred and showed initiative in getting results. As this was my first and hopefully last criminal matter I had no shortage of questions. Nicholas took the time to address all my concerns. The result of my case was a complete dismissal of the charges due in large part to Nicholas' involvement and hard work. I couldn't of been happier with his efforts. I hope to never need his services again but if I do, he will be my first call.

Mr. Carrescia had no experience with expunging a cannabis cultivation felony. Yet he took the task with a can do attitude. I felt it was an exercise in futility at best, but still worth a try. Nick filed a motion after finding no help from a State's Attorney or NORML. I was unsure what would happen. ...The Illinois cannabis laws are unclear on many points. Then we waited. Seemed in a very short period of time there was a result. The Judge granted my expungement without hesitation. When Nick called me with the good news I was in shock. This cannabis felony followed me around for 32 years. To have it removed changed my life. Mr. Carrescia's can do attitude, experience, and skill served me well. From this point on I refer to him as 'my attorney'.
