Hear From Past Clients
  • “Mr. Piccarreto is a excellent lawyer”
    Mr. Piccarreto is a excellent lawyer and knows exactly what he is doing when it came to my very complicated divorce. It involved two countries with properties in both and the price was unbelievable as it was three times LESS than the first family lawyer I hired and fired. His expertise was impeccable and especially superb when we got to the judge. My divorce was granted within weeks of our first meeting and could have been soon only for my X dragging his feet. His legal assistant, Lauren was beyond reproach and if I was A lawyer I would steal her away from him. She is capable of doing ten different things at one time and never makes an error with tons of paperwork to do. I was in a terrible condition when getting my divorce but the people in this firm made it look like we were walking on water. Thank you all.
