First off... I know you , as I have done, read through all…read morethe reviews and see the bad as well as the good ones and then sit back and scratch your head and ponder... Well let me tell you this... stop pondering... if you are looking for one of the best attorneys in criminal defense... you have found him.. I am a babe in the woods.. having a squeaky clean background and then to all of the sudden have my life thrown upside down... not knowing which way was up and what was going to happen... Thomas went to work... from the first time I talked to one of his associates on the telephone for the "free consultation" I was told, that they wanted me to come in... not for a paid consultation but yet a continuation of the free consultation. This was done with Thomas directly, and he listened and then immediately saw numerous avenues. He didn't give me false hope, he told me facts , and what to expect and exactly how he was going to handle the case... Now onto the other items people have said in their reviews... "lack of communication" This firm is BUSY, and rightfully so, being one of the best. However he still has time for his clients, he is just in high demand. Trust me, no news is good news.. and if he had time to talk to everyone every minute of the day, then he isn't in that high of demand... so I took that as a positive... When there is something .. trust me he will call you directly , immediately and tell you what's happening. He works with his contacts, and trust me the prosecutors know him, his reputation, and how he shows them the true law... what our founding fathers had intended. The status of my case, was positive, however... even with a negative status I would have left the same review. I pray to god I never have to use An attorney again, however when my life hangs in the balance... there is NO other attorney I would trust more.

Brendan Callaghan…read more I am very disappointed with my experience. Communication throughout my son's case was poor. My phone calls and emails often went unanswered, and it was difficult to get updates. On one scheduled court date, Brendan Callaghan did not appear, and another attorney handled the matter instead. I expected more consistent representation and better communication, especially during such an important time for my family. Based on my personal experience, I cannot recommend his services.

The gentlemen just wasn't friendly its all about how you communicate with people and I would never trust them to handle a case for me. The manner I was spoken to was terrible and rushed through expressing my concerns. I talked to multiple lawyers today; comparing prices actually ironically this was on the cheaper side. I say this after the conversation was loud and aggressive and I was interrupted and talk over multiples like concluding anything I have to say. Do not even seek for advice. You can have a better communication with someone else.

I cannot recommend Max Frizalone highly enough. From the very beginning, he was professional,…read moreknowledgeable, and incredibly supportive during what was one of the most stressful times of my life. Max took the time to explain every step of the process clearly, always making sure I understood my options and felt confident in the strategy. His dedication, preparation, and courtroom skill were exceptional, and thanks to his hard work we achieved an acquittal. Beyond his legal expertise, Max genuinely cares about his clients. He was responsive, reassuring, and consistently went above and beyond to make sure I felt supported throughout the entire process. If you are looking for a criminal defense attorney who is both highly skilled and truly compassionate, Max Frizalone is the attorney you want on your side. I am deeply grateful for everything he did for me.

He cares about his clients and is passionate about his work. He's easy to work with, and he's cool and calm; however, he goes into beast mode when he's in the courtroom. I wouldn't want to be another attorney who would try to challenge him. Yikes! His knowledge of the law and strategic thought process is stupendous!! Needless to say, I won my case. I am grateful, beyond measure. I will keep Mike in my roladex and refer him to friends, family, and others in case they ever need an attorney. Mike's approach is effortless. He's the man with the master plan. He kept me calm and enlightened me on how things work, what to expect, and even the history of certain aspects of the justice system. I can go on, but I'll stop here. Again, THANK YOU, MIKE!!

DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE CROCODILE SMILE!!…read more Its a damn shame no one was considerate enough to post about this guy prior to me. EVERYTHING I'd stated previously is 100% truth (and had to be remove due to his legal threat)! Now 8 months later and this man has apparently finally figured out this review website exist. He now has sent me a letter threatening suit, basically an attempt to suppress a little constitutional right called "Freedom of Speech & Press." So the best I can tell you is DON'T DO IT!! This guy becomes 90% unavailable once you give up the retainer. He treated me more like a nuance than a client. His ego is off the scale and if you're as so bold as to confront him on his poor disposition he'll never let you hear the end of it. Regardless of the miles of evidence I'd given him he basically didn't even get the gist of my defense until the day of. His "shushing" me in court, hand gesturing me to shut up, allowing the plaintiff's party to sit there for 5 hrs and attack my character with hardly a word of protest. WOW! I can't stress enough how I WISH I'd of simply done this by myself!! YES!!! I'd of been better off just going it alone from across the country. Don't make my mistake, find a lawyer who doesn't just do the bare minimum... find one who cares about you or at least has professional ego enough to actually WANT to win. Just Ridiculous! Good Luck
