Excellent affordable lawyer

Giancarlo was a very responsive lawyer in my case, he would send me an email in less than 24 hours on anything I was concerned with. In addition to that he gave me his honest opinion in situations that could have cost me thousands in lawyer fees if he would not have given me honest feedback and I not... have taken his advice. Great Lawyer.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2016.

Probation issued in AZ, 2016

Probation means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State monitors the lawyer's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Giancarlo’s comment:

“While I disagree with the outcome and discipline I received, I am happy to explain as to what happened, while still maintaining client confidentiality and upholding all of the current an enforceable ethical rules.”
