I went to Paul to represent/advise me with my divorce. It didn't take long for us to develop a good rapport and working relationship. He handled all aspects of my divorce very efficiently and made the whole experience tolerable. He did not try to milk me for money, as lawyers might have a reputation for doing. He treated me like a human, and eventually as a friend. He has a great sense of humor; he also doesn't mince words. He is an extremely skilled attorney - not just in the area of divorce, but also with criminal matters; he is also quite intelligent and can quickly answer questions and help his client with decision-making. During my time with him I consulted with him about a few other personal matters and he always gave me very candid and helpful advice. I couldn't recommend him enough.
Attorney Maggiotto was professional, timely, and always well prepared when I met with him. I was very pleased with the outcome the case he did for me. I would use him again.
Had a few very difficult legal dilemmas my adult children found themselves in. Went to two other attorneys whose efforts and capabilities were lackluster at best. I then found Paul Maggioto. He handled the cases as if he was the one risking jail time. I am extremely impressed. You WILL want him on your side.
Paul cut through all the crap and put apposing counsel in their place. He saved me money by streamlining the attorney/client processes. He didn't waste time. When I walked into court I felt like a load was taken off my shoulders by Paul. Hiring Paul was the best move I ever made in handling the divorce issue.
