Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Joe was an incredible help when I needed it the most. He guided me through the entire process, answered all my millions of questions, kept me calm when I needed it, and was overall very patient and understanding. When you find yourself in a less-than-ideal situation that's scary and traumatizing, it's important to have someone by your side that will not just guide you, but offer you comfort as well. Joe and Aimee did just that. Thanks so much for all your help!
Attorney Paletta helped me tremendously during one of the most difficult times in my life. He and his staff helped me to understand each step of the court process and relieved me of a lot of stress that comes with any court proceeding. His paralegal, Aimee, was great to work with, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful with any questions I had between hearings. Before each important event, I was given all the details I needed so that I was as prepared as I could be. I am very pleased I chose them.
Excellent on every level. Attorney Paletta and staff were always available, knowledgeable and so helpful during the whole process. The outcome of the case was amazing and the best that we could have hoped for. A true blessing - a miracle!
Mr. Paletta was referred to us when our son (age 21) was arrested for drug possession in Pennsylvania while we live in NY. He and his staff were responsive and very helpful. He successfully negotiated an outcome that held our son accountable in a constructive not destructive manner. On a personal note, Mr. Paletta and staff were supportive and sympathetic to frantic parents who had never dealt with a family member significantly in trouble before.
Attorney Paletta was very successful in representing a family member in a traffic violation charge. He was readily available for answers to questions and very thorough and diligent in his research and review of current facts and past history in order to attain a favorable outcome. Also his paralegal was very helpful and quick to respond to questions in his absence.
We found Attorney Paletta to be an excellent attorney who provided us with a sense of control and calm during a stressful time. He was extremely responsive and supportive to our needs and concerns. His paralegal Aimee was extremely professional and responsive and a perfect complement to the fine service we experienced. We had a very favorable result and were completely satisfied. I would highly recommend Attorney Paletta.
Attorney Paletta is very knowledgeable and has excellent communication and listening skills. He was able to explain legal matters in a very clear and understandable way. I felt very comfortable with his abilities. I also felt that he was very trustworthy and honest.
I hired Mr. Paletta to represent a very close friend of mine who was extradited to PA. Mr. Paletta was very aggressive and communicated at the very beginning how he would handle the case, as well as the anticipated outcome and got the charges reduced and my friend out of jail just as he said he would. His paralegal, Aimee Toth, was very friendly, professional and quickly responded to my numerous questions, phone calls and emails. I would definitely recommend Mr. Paletta to others.
