Louis Peter Pilato

Man, where do I even begin with this guy? First thing things *STAY FAR AWAY* from this guy, my family dished out 10k for this guy and he did nothing but fill my head with lies/tell me things I wanted to hear only for none of those things to come to fruition, he is extremely uncommutative and uninform...ed. "I" myself had to tell him in the jury box that a better deal had been worked out between the DA and someone more competent at the law firm he represents and Mr.Pilato had no clue what I was referring to, on top of that, Mr.Pilato had completely forgotten we had met during our second time meeting with each other, in his exact words: "he didn't want to know the details of my case and when it did come time for me to finally sign a deal he informed me I'd be getting released 2 months sooner than I actually was. I genuinely feel my family wasted 10k on this guy and that I could've got a better deal representing myself and or going with a public defender, please do your research and save yourself as well as your loved one some time and money and don't hire this guy. These 5 star reviews I am seeing are bullsh!t and maybe at one point in his younger days he was somewhat competent but now I genuinely feel it's time for him to retire. BEWARE

I am extremely happy with the results. When he walked into the courtroom it was evident he was well known. It took nearly a year to fight the case, but he was able to lower the felony to a misdemeanor with no jail time. You will not regret hiring this attorney. He has over 40 years as a criminal defe...nse lawyer and was a former DA. He knows how the DA's think. He was expensive, but worth it! The firm let me make payments after paying a down-payment.

Louis Pilato & law firm he works for Calabria Law Group. To the money I put down & ran with it. My son is facing serious charges against him and has been since Sept 2021. I hired Louis Pilato for my son case. The courts were in the process of determining if my son was competent or incompetent. due to... his disability. I had asked Louis about getting charges reduced or dropped & also the bail reduced. He said 2 cases were being looked at in my sons case. To see if he was competent or incompetent. No bail reduction motion was ever file nor charges dropped. He never went to visit my son while in Riverside County jail & it was so hard to get in contact with him. I have emails trying to reach him. One email he sent he thought it was going to the law firm he works for. It just so happened I was included in it. He was basic letting he= know he don't have time to talk to me because he is very busy. That was very upsetting to me because I was paying him. He only showed up to 3 of my sons court appearances & the 3rd one he relieved himself. He never put up a fight for my sons case. The public defender that was appointed to my son that day, told me I should report Louis Pilato to the State Bar because he had my son going straight to the state hospital. I am still fight this case for my son 1 yr 4 months later. If he was that good then my son would be out of this mess. DO NOT HIRE LOUIS PETER PILATO OR HIS LAW FIRM CALABRIA LAW GROUP.!!!!!

Mr. Plato was not our Defense Attorney. I consulted with him post conviction after firing our Attorney for lying throughout the ordeal of our lives, and for doing nothing at all in my son's case. Nothing. 3 years and we had to push to start trial and our *great* Attorney didn't even know the case and... texted his way too young girlfriend all thru trial. Distracted much? I was traumatized by this man. He verbally abused, lied and had more than enough evidence to get a not guilty, and he presented nothing. There's so much more but I'm not here about him. I'm here out of gratitude for Mr. Pilato. Like I said, it was post conviction. My son was convicted by the lies of 1 witness and a detective for the arresting agency. Now he testified as an amazing social media expert. Dude didn't know what an activity log is. Real good expert right? His every word had a lie attached. The court appointed another attorney, who ignored us 11 months and still does. He only responds about court dates. So after conviction, there's a new trial or an appeal. Those are the 2 chances we have to get the truth out. Nobody will help us and the first Attorney took every dollar I had, and then some, so I couldn't hire anyone else. I would've found a way to hire Mr. Pilato. Unfortunately, he couldn't take on our case because he's got others and so obviously, didn't have the time it would take for our case. I can't tell you how much I appreciated his honesty on that. Our other attorney didn't have time for our case, so he pushed trial back for 3+ years and was angry to start trial. He should've told me he didn't have time for our case. He didn't look at evidence, didn't interview witnesses. No time. Here, I've got a non-retained Attorney telling me honestly that he didn't have the time needed. That's Honest. I consulted with Louis Pilato several times. I found him to be very patient with my many, many questions. He is very knowledgeable in criminal law. I got so much more information from him than the Ghost of an Attorney that I had paid $70,000 to...again, , to sit and text his GF sitting with me in the hallway. Mr. Pilato answered my questions outright which is something I've never experienced before. Every other attorney was incredibly vague in answering anything until after retained I suppose. Even when they advertise, "free consultation" , all answers are, well, I'd have to be retained to answer that. Their free consults are a waste of time. Thanks to Mr. Pilato I understand a little better and have more knowledge as to what we need to do. I wouldn't have to do all the work I am doing now. All we needed was an Attorney. This would have been done already, and my son would be home. I know this is long. Bottom line is I'd recommend and hire Mr. Pilato in a heartbeat. You can't go wrong with that kind of Attorney.
