Emile is an awesome person. He took a look at my cases I had and instead of taking my money he gave me advice on what I need to do, I did exactly what he told me to do, and it all worked out for me. Thank you so very much!!! I highly recommend him to who might need a good lawyer!!!

I am very grateful to have Gallantucci and patuto represent me. They are an extremely knowledgeable,understanding, compassionate ,professional,able and well respected team of higly educated lawyers and associates. Although my case is ongoing they have been able to do things for me that I believe no other law firm could/would be able to do. They were highly recommended to me by people who have been around and involved with law in general and I highly recommend you make the smart decision to retain and pay for the services that Gallantucci & Patuto have to offer.

Thank goodness I was represented by this law firm. Mr Emile Lisboa was able to defend me from an unjust accusation. He was kind and empathetic. More importantly, he is knowledgeable of the law. My family and I are internally grateful for his services. Highly recommend.
