    I Cannot Recommend This Attorney Enough
    I cannot recommend this attorney enough. He has helped me through some extremely difficult situations and has consistently gone above and beyond to get the best possible outcome. On multiple occasions, he has literally kept me out of jail and taken an enormous weight off my shoulders. He is knowledgeable, professional, responsive, and truly cares about his clients. He explains everything clearly, fights hard for you, and makes sure you’re never left in the dark. When things feel overwhelming, he brings confidence and calm to the situation. If you’re looking for an attorney who actually delivers results and stands by you when it matters most, this is the person to call. I’m incredibly grateful for everything he’s done for me and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

    An Incredible Lawyer
    An incredible lawyer that got me the best possible result for my situation at the time, helped to walk me through all possible options, and related to me well on a personal level. It's been a few years since I've had the pleasure of taking him on as an attorney, but it was definitely well worth the money. Price was also great for the level of representation that was given. Incredibly professional, and even when traveling a ways to represent me in court, he still happened to know a few of the other attorneys and DAs in my district. It made me feel confident that I was working with someone who was well regarded overall. He was excellent at navigating the more sensitive criminal defense circumstances and helped to plug me into the necessary resources I needed to develop into a more well-rounded person altogether. Thank you, Mr. Curcione!

    I worked with this attorney to recover money that was owed to my company, and I’m very grateful for his help. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain the process and my options. He helped guide the situation toward a settlement, which brought a lot of relief. Overall, he was responsive, easy to work with, and made a stressful process much more manageable. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing assistance.

    Matthew was excellent in helping me
    Matthew was excellent in helping me defend myself from my partner who assaulted me and then tried to claim being the victim. He had a clear and ultimately successful plan on how to use the evidence I had of being the one who was attacked to have the charges dropped. He was very helpful in guiding me through the overly complicated hearing process, all with both an affable and professional attitude, and always got back to me quickly if I had a question. He was also very knowledgeable in the quirks of how the local court system and other professionals involved in its ecosystem operate.

    His caring and hard work made a huge difference
    I had a PO order placed against me. Mr. Curcione took my case, guided me through the whole process, and was extremely helpful. He even improvised and got me a lawyer on the spot when my case took a turn into a different issue. At the end of the story, the PO order was dropped, and it had the outcome I had hoped for. I ended up hiring him for a second time, with more serious allegations, one of which was a felony. We beat the misdemeanor, and today we won the felony at the preliminary hearing! You rarely see this. His caring and hard work on my cases made a huge difference. I would retain him again without hesitation!

    He Assured Me He Could Get the Charges Dismissed
    I hired Mr. Curcione back in 2023 for a case I didn’t think I could beat, just wanted to get the charge reduced as much as possible. My initial conversation with him was just that. After being completely honest and upfront with him about the whole situation, he assured me he could get the charges dismissed. The Commonwealth attorney tried pouring it on thick, but Mr. Curcione showed tremendous respect while getting his point across. Thank you to the Curcione Law Firm.

    Phenomenal...wonderful wonderful Criminal Defense Attorney. I've had a few in the past and have NEVER had an attorney like Mr. Curcione. He's a good one, that's for sure.

I thank you for that, sir. May God bless you and your family for generations and generations. Alison

    Very Honest Guy and Tells You How It Is
    He helped me in a tough spot that I felt like I was going to spend some time behind bars, but at the end we got the case withdrawn. This man knew everyone at court, which made me feel very comfortable knowing the fact that he’s been around the block a couple of times, which also helped my wife feel better in the situation. Very honest guy and tells you stuff how it is without beating around the bush. I would recommend him to any of my friends, but with saying that I hope I don’t have to see him again hahaha. I would retain him again if I were to find myself in a pickle.
