Great work of Cliff Lazzaro. I was facing 50 years on 2 first degree racketeering charges and one second degree witness tampering charge. Mr. Lazzaro was able to have both racketeering charges dismissed. He then negotiated a plea to third degree for witness tampering. I am forever grateful for the hard work and dedication Mr. Lazzaro put into my case. Clifford E Lazzaro is a very strong lawyer who wins the tough cases.

Trustworthy. A remarkable attorney!!! I had third degree indictable charges for prescription fraud downgraded to disorderly persons due to Mr. Clifford Lazzaro's expertise. He is incredible making the right decisions for his clients and cares about them also. I highly recommend his "law talents". He is a great person and a great attorney which is hard to find today.

Hard Working. I was charged in a federal criminal case with armed robbery and kidnapping. Mr. Lazzaro has worked tirelessly on my behalf. He got a bail package approved and then he negotiated a very good deal. It was a very complicated case with many defendants. I am very satisfied with his legal work. He is an outstanding lawyer. Very experienced in federal cases. While my case is still pending sentencing, I have great faith that Mr. Lazzaro will work to get me the best outcome possible for me and my family.

Wrong place wrong time, guilt by association. Careful who you give a ride. Gave my "friend" a ride to the pharmacy to fill "his Mother's" prescription and before I knew it I was under arrest for 3 felony charges. I was referred to Cliff Lazzaro by a close associate of mine. I was glad he was the right man for the job. Third degree prescription fraud and weapons possession charges downgraded to a disorderly person's offense because of Mr. Lazzaro's legal representation. Cliff is an excellent attorney. He worked my case ove a several month period of time and the result speaks for itself. Highest ratings!!!

Trial Attorney. I was charged with aggravated assault and possession of a weapon for stabbing a person in the chest with a knife. After a 2 week trial, the jury was deadlocked. I trestified at trial that the victim pulled the knife against me and ended up being stabbed with his own knife. There were no fingerprints or other forensic evidence linking me with the recovered weapon. The vistim was a bully and the son of a cop. At the re-trial, the State offered me non custodial probation and the case went away thanks to Clifford Lazzaro. He is a "super" trial attorney. One of best in his profession. You can trust him with your life and know that you are in good hands.

Without Mr. Lazzaro's legal representation, I would never have been granted my final restraining order. He is a very experienced trial attorney who prepared me prior to my testifying. He won my final restraining order hearing. Highly recommended

A criminal drug case. An ABSOLUTE PERFECT FIND!!!!! A routine traffic stop turned into a criminal drug case. Facing 5-15yrs and over $15,000 in fines and offenses. Perused the internet looking for that perfect attorney. My son, honor student, junior in college, frat boy, pulled over in Mercer County NJ for a routine traffic stop. Officer had inclination there was drugs/ paraphernalia inside vehicle, stated there was a faint smell of Marijuana coming from vehicle and with consent did a full search of said vehicle. Findings were: 2lbs of Marijuana, paraphernalia including a scale and other miscellaneous accessories inside the trunk of the vehicle. On his person, the findings were $3,000 cash monies. Arrested, fingerprinted, said vehicle confiscated, said drugs, paraphernalia and monies confiscated and a criminal case just on the horizon. An absolute miracle finding Cliff for representation. His extreme interest in the case, endless hours of hard work and his absolute knowledge of the law led us from a criminal drug case to a COMPLETE DISMISSAL!!!! Yes, a dismissal. Charged with drug possession, intent to distribute and numerous other offenses Cliff got the results we were looking for. The consificated vehicle returned and the case dismissed. An absolute miracle!!! Cliff couldn't have done a better job. Stayed in close contact with us the entire time the case was being worked out, always forth coming with information as he got it and never felt "out of the loop" the entire time. Was almost like a dream. He made us feel comfortable with the law, complete explanations of any and all questions and oh so very knowledgeable of the law. Definitely a super attorney, family guy and now considered a family friend. Could never express enough our deep appreciation for all that he has done. Very highly recommended and respected. Looking for an attorney, look no further, your search is over, he's #1 in his profession.

EXCELLENT Representation!!!! I had an ongoing, complicated case that spanned both criminal matters in superior court and related matters in family court. I was referred to Mr. Lazzaro by several friends who highly recommended him and were happy with the outcomes of their cases. I had previously consulted with two other attorneys and neither could match Mr. Lazzaro's experience and expertise in both areas. It has been critical to the resolution of my cases to have a lawyer who can handle both. He has worked with the prosecutors office and advocated for me on a tireless basis. Where his expertise is truly invaluable is in the courtroom. During my ongoing proceedings, I've had the opportunity to watch other lawyers and believe me, no one I saw matches him. If you need someone who has your back, THIS IS YOUR GUY!! Also, he has kept me up to date on everything that is going on and I was happily surprised at his availability to answer any questions I may have. I would absolutely refer any friends or family in need of representation to him without hesitation.

Great Attorney. I am writing a special review today. If you need an attorney please do yourself a favor and hire Mr. Lazzaro. Not only has he represented us in the past with a dismissal in a criminal drug case he also recently represented my husband in municipal court for several traffic offenses. My husband had outstanding warrants in 4 different jurisdictions with many charges in each one. Mr. Lazzaro handled all 4 cases with diligent hard work as he always does. All charges were handled professionally and with great care. The outcomes of dismissals Mr. Lazzaro made possible has been amazing. He is very knowledgeable of all circuits of the court systems and gets the job done. Couldn't ask for any better. We went from facing a good amount of mandatory jail time to getting dismissals. Our family not only has an awesome attorney but a family friend. If you have concerns,, he has answers. once again,, HE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!!

Mr Lazzaro was referred to me from another attorney, in order to settle a family type dispute. His extensive knowledge and experience in family law provided me the peace of mind and confidence I needed when I entered that court room. Although the other litigant in this matter launched a full-scale smear campaign, false accusations and character attack against me through internet, phone and in person, I was able to successfully achieve satisfaction and quickly prevent this person from continuing their malicious campaign. Mr Lazzaro's decorum in the court is the pinnacle of firm professionalism and is juxtaposed by his warm, honest and personal demeanor toward his client. I felt like I was in control of the situation at all times in court, no matter how defamatory the other litigant's statements were. Even though my particular matter could have dragged on for additional weeks through further prosecution, Mr Lazzaro had the sense and ability to steer both sides in the case to a truce, and the matter was resolved to my utmost satisfaction. I would recommend Mr Lazzaro to anyone with a family dispute.

EXCELLENT Attorney!! Mr. Lazzaro has been my attorney for many years and has also represented other family members. He has handled criminal and family matters and in both areas he has been able to obtain positive outcomes in all cases. If not immediately available, he promptly returns calls, keeps me in the loop and ensures I feel comfortable every step of the way. I have referred many to him and they have also been happy with him. The true sign of quality service in any business is consistency over time, and Mr. Lazzaro has proven results every time!

Best lawyer in NJ. Hiring Clifford Lazzaro to represent me was the best decision I ever made. I didn't know the legal process of restraining orders and if I didn't have him by my side I am sure I would have lost the case. He is very knowledgeable and truly a master of his trade.

Cliff is the best! When I needed help to get out of trouble Cliff came through big time. He has good relationships with almost everyone in the state so he was able to push and push and get an amazing deal on my behalf. I will be forever grateful to Cliff. If you want the best and can afford to pay for it Cliff is the way to go.

Clifford is an Angel. Just when I thought I had no other choice but to take do 2 years in a federal prison, I hired Cliff and he helped me understand what I was facing and the options I had. I looked at Cliff and said surprisingly “ I have options?” That’s the first time I had any hope. Due to his experience and dedication, today I am in home confinement for only 8 months. As a single mother, to still be able to provide for my children in every aspect is just extraordinary! I owe that all to God and Cliff. He saved my life!! !
