After being named in a California defective product lawsuit, my counsel contacted one of the bigger law firms we have very good experience with and we were given a $85,000 estimate to move to dismiss the lawsuit. My colleague also suggested calling his former partner from Preston Gates,John Petrullo in LA, for additional referrals as we anticipated this would be an expensive lawsuit. When I contacted John for suggestions on who he'd recommend, he asked me to send him the Complaint. After reviewing the Complaint, John asked me to give him a couple of days to review the action. I remember expressing a great deal on anxiety as we were to respond to the Complaint and specifically remember John assuring us that he'd take care of it. My colleague told us to trust Mr. Petrullo. Three days later I received an email from John along with a dismissal of the case. My entire dept. was shocked by this result and at a loss when he didn't send a bill for his services. One of the biggest firms wanted 85,000 to file a motion to dismiss. John went to plaintiffs attorneys for a conversation and left with a dismissal. He's refused to bill us. Thank you John

John Petrullo is quite a lawyer. My company was named in a consumer-based class action and, after meeting with the judge , Mr. Petrullo persuaded the plaintiffs' attorneys to dismiss me and my company in a case that could have bankrupted me to defend.

just check Mr. Petrullo out on his website. I was a juror in a recent trial and my co jurors, except 1, talked more about how prepared he was everyday and how he cross examined experts. He tore them apart! But he wasn't disrespectful. The judge yelled at him a lot it seems to me, and he kept moving anyway. nothing bothered him, only thing he would not spend much time with us after trial, said he likes to take a walk by himself after trials. hope this helps hi. good lawyer.
