He should be disbarred!

He was hired for a friend and given a folder of all the evidence that he LOST almost immediately but continued to say he would find it but of course he never did!! This forced my friend to take a plea deal!!!! Fascenelli never made a county visit, never accepted collect calls and missed numerous cour...t dates. His response when I would question him was “you can hire another attorney” after he was already paid. Basically he takes on too many cases for less money and puts in minimum effort. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for!

unprofessional

unprofessional, unprepared, uninformed. hired him for my son 11 months ago. he won't meet with him in jail "cause it takes too long". so I asked him to meet with him at court, never has. Tells me one thing, my son another. Now he won't answer my calls, texts me and says he'll call back, it's been wee...k n a half. Son has conf with probation in 3 days, no communication at all. Don't even know if he will show up.He can't find papers I gave him a year ago to copy. now i need them for this meeting and don't have them. has not even tried to challenge or reduce charges.

Horrible Attorney

Failure to make court dates. Unable to answer questions about my case. Not willing to do anything to be proactive in my defense. All around a waste of $8,000.

We're sorry you had a bad experience. This matter does not sound familiar, and we strive for the utmost client satisfaction in every case. Important, in felony cases, that the Defendant be aware of all court dates the judge sets, and make sure he is present in court when the case is called. In a felony case, if the attorney makes his appearance, and the Defendant fails to attend, a warrant for the defendant will be issued. And the proceedings will be suspended while the case is in warrant status. It is also imperative for a client to maintain contact with his attorney and his bail bond agent. If the Defendant fails to appear and a warrant is issued, the Defendant should contact the Bail Agent and request a resumption letter. If the defendant is in good standing with the Bail Agent, the Agent will issue a letter stating that the Bail Company will re-assume the risk of bail, and the Attorney can bring this letter into court and request that the warrant be lifted. Failure to contact your Attorney and Bail Agent in a timely manner will result in an outstanding warrant and eventually the arrest of the Defendant. Please contact me directly to discuss your specific concerns.

Ignores you when you pay and only calls for another payment

I read several reviews that were negative and true and they just delete them and post fake positive ones. This guy pretends to walk the walk- but he just talks it.. He was assigned by the state to represent me and has failed to do Anything 5 months later. He is unorganized and constantly changes pop... up office, what a phony
