    We Are Extremely Grateful for Patrick Gioia
    We are extremely grateful for Patrick Gioia. He stepped in after major mistakes were made by a court-appointed lawyer, corrected them quickly, and got my brother out of jail. Thanks to his knowledge, dedication, and aggressive defense, the case was ultimately dismissed. If you need a criminal defense attorney who truly knows what he’s doing, I highly recommend him.

    Mr. Patrick Gioia Was an Amazing Lawyer
    Mr. Patrick Gioia was an amazing lawyer. He was very responsive and attentive throughout the whole time of my case. There was not a time or day I would text him for an update regarding my case where he wouldn’t answer me, and for that I’m very grateful. If my case could get dismissed today, it was because of his consistency, patience, and knowledge. I would definitely recommend him to anyone I know looking for a great lawyer to represent them.

    My experience with Mr. Gioia was absolutely perfect
    My experience with Mr. Gioia was absolutely perfect. If you are looking for a caring, educated, respectful attorney, look no further than Gioia Law. I personally experienced him treating me like family. Never about the money, but the matter at hand is what means most to Mr. Gioia. If you want to feel safe and secure behind a well-educated and professional individual, I couldn’t recommend anybody else enough. I had a case that would usually easily last over a year and was able to have the case dismissed within 6 months of the charges being filed. Mr. Gioia believes in fairness and will give his 100% to reach the best verdict for every single one of his clients. I want to take this chance to thank him as well; without him I wouldn’t have felt such ease and peace of mind while awaiting the case. Mr. Gioia is one of a kind.
    Mike Barbosa
    I honestly cannot thank Attorney Gioia enough
    I honestly cannot thank Attorney Patrick Gioia enough for his competent and methodical and successful representation of my son. He exemplifies professionalism and is what anyone would look for in an attorney. He is responsive to questions, open to feedback, explains the process clearly so as to keep his clients informed of next steps. He successfully argued a motion to suppress for a gun charge against BPD, not an easy feat! If ever I need a criminal defense attorney again (which I pray I do not), I would without hesitation hire Attorney Gioia again! On behalf of my family and my community, I send my heartfelt gratitude!
    Jo Brown

Was worth every penny and look forward to referring your law firm to others in need of help. Thanks again for all that you did for my family and myself. Danny

    Patrick Gioia Is an Excellent Attorney
    Patrick Gioia is an excellent attorney. I knew immediately after our initial conversation regarding my case that he would be able to help me. He knows the law and was able to get me the best outcome. I am so happy I hired him!
    Holly
    Attorney Gioia Was the Right Person
    Attorney Patrick Gioia represented me in a case where someone was trying to vacate an order that was properly put in place by the courts. He was very accessible, detailed, and knowledgeable on what was required of us. In the end, the request was denied and the order affirmed. One never wants to be in court, but when you are, there is no better feeling than that you made the right decision on who to represent you. For me, Attorney Gioia was the right person for the job and I could not recommend him more highly.
