There is no one better who will fight for you to the end.

Three years ago my legal ordeal began and from day one Mike has been there at every moment. When the first time that I met Mike I knew he was someone who was there because he cared. Once Mike learned about my story he never stopped fighting for me and my family. I was facing very serious charges whic...h would have left me with no hope or opportunities, but now with all of the hard work Mike dedicated, I have a future and hope. Whenever I had a question throughout the entire process Mike talked to me and explained everything step by step. Mike was able to work to achieve an agreement with the DA to where I would not spend a single moment in jail or prison. I honestly believe that there is no one else that would have fought for me the way that Mike did, he saw the truth in my story and my battle became his as well. I can not begin to express into words how thankful I am to have met Mike and have him be at my side throughout the entire legal process. Mike is always upfront and honest, he will always tell you what things are realistically looking like whether they are good or bad. Mike is honestly one of the most compassionate individuals I have ever met in my life and he is truly a blessing.

Pro Bono for a Vet - The lawyer I wish I had

I called Michael for a consultation to discuss the matter of my ongoing case. I had hired an attorney back in June for a 2nd DUI and have been feeling like something wasn't right. Michael spent two hours on the phone with me listening to my case and even reviewing my discovery!! Michael gave me more ...insight to me case in 2 hours, than my hired attorney has in over 6 months. If you're looking for an extremely knowledgable and trustworthy attorney, look no further than Michael Scaffidi. He is the type of lawyer I wish I had.

Simply the BEST!

Our son was arrested and wrongly accused of a horrible crime! We posted bail and waited for our son’s release. We began to look for lawyers to represent our son. I reviewed the bio’s and reviews of so many possible lawyers? I found one that caught my attention! The Law offices of Michael Scafiddi. I... wanted the best for my son case. I called one of my good friends in law enforcement to ask if he could recommended a good lawyer? He replied “ Michael Scafiddi” He is good!!! He has kicked our butts in court every time. We met with Mike and his phenomenal staff the next day. From the start! Straight forward and honest! He told us he would take our case. He went to work! Started with Investagator to gather all the facts immediately. He leaves no stone unturned! Mike kept us informed of all possibilities. He told us from the beginning! Your son will be treated as if he is my son! He lived up to that statement. Mike is amazing in court room, He is so well respected. I was always so impressed how well respected and feared he is by opposing council. Our case finally settled with a plea that reduces to a misdemeanor. He was facing 3-7 years in jail. Mike will be with is even after it is expunged. Mike was not only a great lawyer! He became family! A great friend! and mentor to our son. Mike is the most amazing, smart, dedicated lawyer around. I can’t put into words! the trustworthiness, thoroughness, and diligence of Mike’s hard work. His definitely made our journey through this very long and emotional experience easier. We would highly recommend him with complete confidence to anyone in need of the best lawyer around. The Law offices of Michael Scafiddi will be straight forward, honest and will resolve your case with the best possible outcome. Thank you, Mike

An excellent lawyer, a compassionate advocate and a great person

My case, I assume like many other people's, caused me a great deal of anxiety, worry and heart ache at the beginning. Mike Scafiddi was there for me from the very start to the very end. At the beginning he had to hold my hand and guide me through the initial process of understanding what I was deal...ing with and what the realities of the entire journey would entail. Looking back, I know that I must have been over-anxious and repetitive about many of my concerns and worries but Mike was kind, understanding, PATIENT, professional and caring. He gave me FAR FAR more of his time and effort that I feel I ever paid for! He genuinely cared and listened, believed me and ferociously fought for me... On a professional / legal level, I cannot imagine anyone more capable or knowledgeable than him in this field. Mike Scafiddi was a career Law Enforcement Officer before retiring, passing the bar exam and becoming a lawyer. He knows how the system works and he puts his heart and soul into his work. He knows that law enforcement doesn't always get it right and he knows HOW to fight for you... He works day and night to provide you the best representation and legal strategy possible. His energetic team is sharp and on top of things. They are professional, responsive and willing to meet the standard that Mike himself sets by his great example. Each case is different, but when Mike called me to say that my nightmare was over and that he had won my case, it was the 6th case in a row for him where he was victorious. If ANY family member or friend needed the services of an attorney in Mike's field, I would not allow them to use any other lawyer than Mike Scafiddi. My hat is off to him, I am grateful to him and I now consider him a lifelong friend and confidant. He under-promised and over-delivered, he is a genuinely kind and caring person and he WON my case after over 2 years of fighting and never charged me beyond the initial flat rate! All the while, throughout the entire case, he saved my license and kept me working and living my life... And because of all this, he gave me belief and trust in our legal system that I had partially lost due to my experience with this problem... For ALL that, I will forever be grateful and indebted to him! Thank you Mike!
