Mike has completed 2, almost impossible, modifications for a family member. He was quick and works very well with his clients to ensure all documents are to everyone’s satisfaction. He made it work both times and made my family very happy !

When I was 19 Mr. Modica got me out of a pretty serious assault charge. It was a very stressful time for me considering my military career was at stake. Not only were all my charges dropped (my co defendant wasn’t so lucky with a Public defender) it took him about 5 minutes to get them dropped. He might be the best Lawyer in the tristate area.

Mr. Modica was very responsive in my initial email to request a consultation. He was extremely thorough and professional throughout the process with my PFA hearing. He did an exceptional job at staying on top of the situation and doing everything he could to ensure the best outcome. I am VERY pleased with his services and would definitely recommend!

Mr Modica is professional and a great guy to talk to he is a real person and a super lawyer

All charges dismissed, case closed!! Im a single mom, was low on options & money. Mike is reasonable with his prices, he is understanding & VERY down to earth. Not snobby like most lawyers. Mike is fighter, & he knows his work WELL. He seems to be well respected in the court room. I felt PROUD to stand next to him in court. He’s not a man of many words, but don’t let that fool you bc he’s definitely fighting for you. He is a silent beast. It’s ok to trust him. Believe me.

Upon speaking to this lawyer, I would say he was very rude! I called to get representation for my son and he felt the need to tell me what I can and can’t afford, because I told him I didn’t bail my son out for $2000 and would rather put the money to getting a lawyer hum! I didn’t call you to ask for insults I called you for help and if you didn’t want to take the case or you’re not able be successful in handling the case then you should have just said that rather then trying to make me feel like I don’t have!!!! Obviously if I’m calling you then I must have some kind of money I do know lawyers are not cheap! After reading the reviews you would think you would be dealing with a good person but from my experience I would have to say different!!!

REASSURING, KNOWLEDGEABLE, EFFECTIVE, Jason handled my son’s case and was very informative, reliable and made it an extremely seamless process with positive results. I highly recommend him as a lawyer and would use his services for anything I may need in the future.

I was in an auto accident and had soft tissue injuries. I hired Mr. Antoine and he was able to get a settlement from my insurance company that was five times more than what they originally offered me. He is very professional and a great lawyer.

Attorney will work hard to get what you deserve. He explains everything in a way if very easy to understand. Good attorney.

Mr. Antoine was a great lawyer. He made sure he did his homework. I had a Violation of Probation of a small misdemeanour and my judge kept sentencing me over on level 3 and the the Crest. Well for an FYI level 4 is considered jail. I left the courtroom with the state owing me extra days of my life that i spent over my back up charge which holds a year. BTW i spent 13 months waiting for court and the Crest. i would like to thank Mr. Antoine for saving me from jail, because if not i would have lost everything i just worked hard for. And his team is great for receiving messages and emails and faxes and giving them right to Mr. Antoine.
