Worth it!

Hired for my son. I had never needed a lawyer and was nervous. Between Shelly, his assistant, making sure he had his ducks in a row for court and lawyer handling business with a professional, honest and attentive manner I was at ease. If you need a criminal lawyer, Call Carlo. You wont be disappointe...d!

Excellent Legal Counsel

Mr. Deangelo handled my early termination of probation case seamlessly. His expertise and insight were very sound. He represented me exceptionally well.

Posted by Rebecca | October 09, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

case dismissed

If you need a criminal defensive attorney Mr. Deangelo is your guy. He is professional and puts everything he has into your case. We works hard and is detailed oriented to insure a tight win. He does not push for trial until he is well prepared. Mr. Deangelo knows what he's doing. His knowledge, tim...e, and focus on my case got it dismissed completely. I am very grateful for him and thank God for leading me to him in my time of need and guidance when it comes to the court system. I can't say thank you enough.

Outstanding Lawyer , Outstanding experience.

I had a DWI charge and Carlo got me a great deal- I can tell you that specifically there were people in the courtroom with the same charge and I heard their sentencing - and I am so happy Carlo represented me. My deal was much much better than theirs. He kept me informed about my case and made me f...eel like a real person, not just a client. I admire how he works his business and treats his clients. I recommend hiring Carlo. I will have his number for the rest of my life.

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.
