  Mr Mussari, is probably the best attorney in Erie county. Very understanding to the inconsistencies of the justice system. He will take all the time necessary to explain the law and will work extremely hard to win the case. He is fearless in the court room and is not a attorney who is trying to make a quick dollar. That right there speaks volumes.

  The best Attorney I have ever encountered!! Very caring about your case and will fight his hardest to defend you and your rights!! He is very knowledgeable and reliable! The only time he doesn’t/cant answer is when he is in court, but gets right back to you asap! I would most definitely recommend choosing Mr.Mussari to defend anyone!
