I can only say Thank You Mr. Sanita for making my life that much better. You believed me and defended me. I was found not guilty after being charged with assaulting a customer who was trying to steal items from my store. You stood up for me and told the jury I was an honest hardworking and innocent person. I still have tears in my eyes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you thank you thank you!!!! God bless you.

Mr.Sanita is an amazing lawyer, my dad and I were very stressed about my case but after meeting with him once, he lifted the burden off our shoulders. My dad and I were so pleased with him about how he will handle the case and the way he treated us like his friends. I got myself into some trouble hanging out with the wrong people even though I was completely innocent. He believed me and took me in as his client but he never treated me like a client he treated me like his friend ever since day one when I called him on the phone. I never got a unclear answer from him, he will answer EVERY question you throw at him to the best of his ability. He will tell you EVERYTHING he's doing with your case, so no surprises. He got me the BEST possible outcome for my case. He truly is like a friend to me and for everything he has done for me and my dad I cannot thank him enough.

Mr. Sanita saved me today. I expected to be convicted of aggravated assault because my first lawyer told me I had no chance. Mr. Sanita stepped in and took care of me. We fought and fought all day. when the verdict came back not guilty... I was overwhelmed with joy. The truth came out and he did this for me. This attorney is no joke!!! He is the real deal and a great guy. Highly recommended for life. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Mr. Sanita spent the entire last two days in Court with me defending me on a charge I did not commit. He spent every minute with me up to the late evening hours. Regardless of the verdict (it was a not guilty) he was worth everything I invested in him. Merry Christmas to my hero. Just to let you know how much he cares... 10 minutes after my verdict he was already trying to help another family in need. This guy has my confidence forever. He loves his clients and we love him back.

Mr. Sanita did an outstanding job in Court today saving me from a conviction that would have cost me my job and reputation. He did everything he could to save me... and that's just what he did. I was found not guilty on 12 criminal charges today. He really never stops working to help his clients. Thank you Amato!!!!

I was looking on this website for another lawyer. I saw the lawyer that I had was no good, this website just confirmed what I already new. Then I started reading the review's on Amato T. Sanita' profile. I fired my lawyer and was so glade Mr. Amato took my case. My case wasn't an easy one I had attempted murder, and aggravated assault plus a few misdemeanors. Now my background is not to great I have a past and that is what the DA was looking at. Mr. Amato saw past that, knew that wasn't the kind of person I am and worked hard for me. My mom was very sick and past away right before my trial. I started to go down and started not to care. Mr. Amato helped me, he told me what I needed to hear he straightened me out, and postpone my hearing until he knew I was ready. Mr. Amato went through a lot with me, and when it came time for court he was there fighting for me. I was looking at ten to twenty years because of a man and a women came to my place to kill me, it didn't end up that way she almost died, they attacked me and they were on drugs and drinking. Because of my criminal record the DA wanted to find me guilty, if I didn't have Mr. Amato T. Sanita I would've been found guilty of them charges. No other Lawyer would've worked hard for me like he did. I really cannot thank him enough I would've died in prison if it wasn't for Amato T. Sanita that is why he is my............"SUPERMAN"....... :) :)

Attorney Sanita did a wonderful job helping me with my criminal PFA petition. He took all my calls.. even when I was a little too upset. I listened to his advice... and sometimes it hard to trust someone. But he is a quality lawyer and person with a true heart and compassion for his clients. I just want to say thank you Amato!!!!!
