I cannot recommend Cliff Lazzaro highly enough. His expertise and compassionate approach made a significant difference during a challenging time. Cliff patiently explained the legal process, outlining potential scenarios and strategies tailored to the specific situation. What truly sets Cliff apart is his empathetic nature. He understands the emotional toll of family legal matters and provided not just legal counsel, but also emotional support. His calm and reassuring demeanor helped alleviate my anxiety and kept me focused on the important issues at hand. His negotiation skills were exceptional. Whether in mediation sessions or courtroom proceedings, he advocated with a perfect balance of assertiveness and professionalism. His strategic approach led to favorable outcomes without unnecessary conflict, which was especially important given the sensitive nature of the case. Do not hesitate to hire Cliff for your criminal or family matter.

I can't recommend Mr. Lazzaro enough. He’s not just a great lawyer—he's a genuinely good person who cares about his clients beyond the case itself. Throughout my experience, he was always there when I needed him, even keeping in touch over Christmas and New Year's, which speaks volumes about his dedication. He was understanding and forgiving of my idiosyncrasies, never making me feel like just another case file. His fairness and generosity set him apart, and I always felt like I had someone in my corner who truly had my best interests at heart. If you're looking for a lawyer who is both skilled and compassionate, look no further.

Clifford is an excellent attorney who worked aggressively and tirelessly over the course of a year to and put me in a position for my criminal case to be completely dismissed. I was charged with a second-degree aggravated assault offense and facing between 5 and 10 years in state prison subject to 85 % parole ineligibility under NERA and Mr. Lazzaro was able to negotiate Pre Trial Intervention (PTI) conditioned upon a reduced amended plea to a charge of third degree assault by auto. He avoided me having to serve a state prison sentence. My case will be dismissed upon completion of the PTI program.

From day one, Cliff was more than just my attorney. In my darkest days, he was a shoulder to lean on and steadying force in my life when everyone else deserted me. When it came time to negotiate a plea deal, I could tell that he was well connected within the courts and most importantly well respected. I was facing a number of years in state prison charged with a second-degree theft offense, and he was able to negotiate a sentence of non-custodial probation. The case began in 2019 and was not resolved until 6 months ago. For nearly 5 years Cliff worked tirelessly and was aggressive when dealing with the AP. He guided me in every way through the process. His tireless work allowed me to stay at home with my family, and gave me the time I needed to turn my life around by the time it came to resolution. Cliff is not just a great attorney. He’s a great man.

I used Mr.Lazzaro for a Municipal matter and when the courts found out it was my 4th reckless driving they told him to talk to prosecutor again. I thought for sure I was about to loose my license. He got reckless driving completely thrown out and other two tickets stood. No points i keep my license and only $350 fines and court cost. I been threw the courts more than a few times so I know from past experiences most lawyers would not of gotten u that type of deal so yes I highly recommend him.
