Saved My Son's Future with Honest and Experienced Representation

Mike dropped everything to be there for my son. Mike quickly understood the case law and told me he would take care of it. And he did! My son's case was dismissed today because of Mike and his knowledge of the law, how the system works. He and his entire office immediately went into action and mad...e my case their top priority. He is a phenomenal attorney and is truly there for us - especially my son. He not only represented my son, but he took him under his wing. As a mother, your heart aches when you see your children go through difficult times. He knew this and appreciated the stress I was under. He kept me informed, walked me through every step of the case and show true compassion. Mike is a phenomenal lawyer - top-notch - and still his firm charges fair and reasonable fees. I cannot even to begin to thank him for the attention, and dedication they gave my family while we got through one of the most painful times in our lives . He told my son today, "that I am not going anywhere, and I will be there for you." His word is his bond. He is an exceptional lawyer and I highly recommend Michael Scaffidi - hands down the best lawyer I have ever met.

A Great Lawyer Who Really Cares

My experience with Mr. Scafiddi was fantastic. I was stuck in juvenile hall for a mistake that shouldn't have been a crime. My family and I found Mr. Scafiddi to represent me during this case. After meeting with him I felt very confident that I was being represented well. He worked very hard to achie...ve the results that he wanted. Mr. Scafiddi really cared about our situation and made it very clear that he was the right man for the job which gave my family and I lots of confidence. The end result of my case being dismissed would not have been possible without Mike there to help us. Both while I was incarcerated and when I was released to my parents I knew that I was being represented well. I am more than satisfied with the work that Mr Scafiddi has done. He was outstanding.

Beyond impressed!

My boyfriend was arrested and on trial, facing potentially 3 years in state prison. From the moment we met with Mr. Scafiddi's staff, they were nothing but professional and courteous. They kept us in the loop on all that was going on with his case and, eventually, when the case went to trial, worked ...tirelessly to prepare my boyfriend and our family for the process. When the judge allowed a prior conviction into evidence, we thought we were sunk but Mike never let up. He was passionate, diligent and determined to do all he could to get a fair trial for my boyfriend. He set very real expectations for us, prepared us for all possible outcomes, including the worst, but vowed to continue to fight if it did not go our way. He was a consummate professional, never wavering in his approach to defend his client to the very end. My boyfriend was exonerated of all charges and that would not have been possible without Mike. We are eternally grateful to him and his staff and would recommend them in a heartbeat. Thank you, Mike!

Went Above and Beyond!

Attorney Scafiddi went above and beyond with my case. He was recommended to handle the DMV aspect of my case by my attorney handling the criminal side of my DUI charge . This alone took more than 10 hours and 5 sessions in the hearing office. His knowledge of the law and the DUI hearing process is... unsurpassed. Unfortunately despite his efforts the DMV still ruled against me. Based on the foundation laid during the hearing we filed a motion for a Writ as he felt I had a really strong case. It was there his efforts really came through. 25 months from the date of my traffic stop the DMV's ruling was over turned restoring my license. This came after the DA reduced my charges to a dry reckless 12 months earlier. He was honest throughout the proceedings, always discussing every possibility both for and against me. His passion for law and advocacy for his client is second to none. He agreed to a retainer and never asked for a penny more despite all of the additional work and man hours my case entailed. Hopefully I will not need his representation again but if I do he will be the first I call. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation.
