Attorney Grasso provided legal DWI defense services that were stupendous. His knowledge of the law in this area and of the local courts was remarkable. Even when circumstances appeared to be dire, he managed to have charges reduced in a way we never expected. And he continued to follow through with subsequent proceedings to seal or expunge records. I could not recommend a better criminal defense lawyer in southern New England.

In November I found myself in a position I thought I would never ever be in. I was arrested in a domestic violence incident on two charges. Simple assault & disorderly conduct (first offense each). I was completely worried. I did a search and found John Grasso on Avvo. His credentials impressed me so I gave him a call. We only met once and he put my mind at ease. He said “don’t worry I will take care of this for you” and he did. Both charges were dismissed and I cannot thank John enough. He was very supportive & informative every step of the way. Thanks to John I can go on wrapping up the final details of my wedding and not have this hanging over me. If you ever find yourself in need of a fantastic defense lawyer please don’t hesitate to call John.

John is a great lawyer and he got me the best possible outcome in my case! He would always answer questions on weekends and any time of the day and night for me! He is a friendly person and put all his time and effort into helping me win my case for over 2 years until he did the impossible and won my case for me by keeping me with my family. If you want to win your case and get the best possible outcome, call John and hire him immediately! John saved my life and I can not thank him enough!

First I just want to say John is great! I have never needed a lawyer before this year and didn’t think hiring a private lawyer made a difference in a case but yes it does! This year Attorney John Grasso handled two cases for me. From our initial contact I already liked how easy he was to reach and meet with, and he even came in on a Saturday for my first consultation because I work full time M-F. In the first case I had originally had a public defender but I felt like he wasn’t communicating with me well enough to make me feel confident for my court hearings. In our consultation John spent time reviewing my case with me as well as the possible outcomes, worst or best case scenarios. With John I felt prepared and able to go to court confidently. When John reviewed my case he was able to find a violation of my rights in the police report and brought my charge down from drunk driving to reckless driving! He was able to have the court agree to use the months my license was suspended while I waited for the court dates, to apply to the license suspension time the court finally assigned, and he also said he will be able to seal the charge when the case qualifies. The second case I had Attorney John Grasso handle was a disorderly conduct charge that, because it had happened so quickly after the final decision of my case earlier this year, it gave me a violation of that prior case besides the new disorderly conduct charge. Since this complicated my matter he was able to ask the court for more time to review the cases and by the next time we had court (just two weeks later) he was able to strike two deals. One with the DA for my violation and one with the Cranston prosecutor that included a donation out of pocket but ultimately allowed both of those new cases to be dismissed! He is very smart and great at what he does and he is definitely worth hiring to represent you!
