Dick Fiocchi has always been courteous, professional and prompt. I have dealt with him on numerous real estate closings and when we find out he is the attorney representing the seller, we know everything will go smoothly and we will close on time.

An Excellent Attorney
Mr. Fiocchi has provided sound legal advice to both me personally as well as to our corporation. He has helped us navigate through all of the complexities of state and federal law as it pertains to general business; this gives both myself and our management team peace of mind knowing that we are fully compliant with all government regulation. In addition, Mr. Fiocchi is one of my most trusted counselors not only in strictly legal matters, but also in general business philosophy. I would refer any friend or business associate to Mr. Fiocchi without hesitation.
