Reviews for Angelo
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Angelo Sarno is an amazing lawyer who is both professional and great compassionate man. He has proven over the last ten years tome that he is a loyal man who puts the interests of the client first and takes his job seriously to make sure that his client is successful in all aspects.
Angelo is a highly intelligent, experianced and at the same time aggressive lawyer that will fight for you to get a fair settlement. His staff is also excellent in working behind the scenes ensuring the case moves along smoothly and expeditiously. Angelo came recommended from a friend and I have no regrets with taking my friend's advice for my divorce case.
Undergoing, arguably, the hardest experience of my life, working with Snyder & Sarno LLC provided peace of mind and much needed expertise. They took on my divorce and custody battle with transparency, trustworthiness, knowledgeable guidance and a constant level of humanity. Mr. Sarno and his team provided constant time and patience. I have already recommended them to dear friends and family and I will continue to do so.
Angelo agreed to draft a prenup 2+ months prior to my wedding. He assured me this was plenty of time. He charged me $5,000 upfront. After receiving the retainer, Angelo became generally unresponsive to emails and phone calls. Ultimately the agmt was not completed in time because of his delays (he sent the document to the other side ~10 days pre-wedding day). He demanded $3,500 more to complete the agmt post wedding, I refused (his fault the agmt was not completed) and he did not finish the job.
I was deeply disappointed with this divorce attorney's services. They were consistently unresponsive and failed to communicate important updates. Furthermore, the lack of empathy and strategic guidance made an already stressful situation even worse.
