Google review“Attorney Panighetti helped tremendously getting a possession with intent dropped to possession. Which kept me out of jail and got a 6 month parole sentence with my 1 Month in jail counting. So little probation and only got like close to half of the max fines to pay. So happy with results and I would recommend Attorney Panighetti for any drug/dui criminal case.”
Google review“I found Justin based off his Google reviews, and each one describes him and his services accurately. I am actually surprised he has 4.9 stars instead of a perfect 5. Justin was attentive and responsive throughout the entirety of my case and made me feel like it was his top priority. Justin did everything within his power to get me the best outcome possible, and he delivered. He was open and honest with me during every difficult discussion we had. I will refer anyone seeking legal advice, regardless of situation, to seek Justin Panighetti first. He will work tirelessly to ensure you get a favorable outcome once everything is settled. 10/10 recommendation.”
Google review“Justin gives it straight and doesn't sugar coat anything. He was my second attorney after firing my first one and wish I would of called him first. Every time I talked with him I felt better each time about my situation and did the same for my family. He is someone who cares, does not judge, and knows what he is doing. Like I said I wish I would of called him first. I recommend that he should be the first one anyone should call and he will be the only attorney I ever call.”
Google review“A few years back I was at the courthouse with a friend and first witnessed Justin speaking to a client with respect and kindness and I thought this is a really good attorney he is not like the rest.. Many years later I found myself in need of a criminal defense attorney I contacted Justin remembering how I saw him treat his client. Justin met with me listened to every word I said was honest and didn't sugar coat things. I had numerous felonies I was being charged for looking at jail time being a single mom I knew this couldn't happen and because of Justin it didn't he set out with a goal for me and achieved it.. He answered all my calls during the process and all my questions and fears of what to expect. I owe my life to Justin his hard work and the ability to see the law from both side defense and prosecution wise and his impeccable reputation and representation of my case has allowed me to continue to be home with my daughter. I can not thank him enough.”
