"Please do not trust this law firm. My best friend came to him needing a lawyer. She is a victim who has extensive proof. This man made her wait 3 hours. He told her within 2 minutes her explaining the case was too long he didn't want to hear it. She also wrote a review and the lawyers somehow managed to get it blocked for you all to see."

"Michael Pezzulli is as good as it gets. You'll be hard pressed to find a litigator with not just the know-how but the experience in the courtroom to back it up. Ethically, you can be assured he is one who upholds the Texas Lawyer's Creed. And as a mediator who has mediated for Mr. Pezzulli, I know that he comes prepared, prepares the mediator, and most importantly, prepares his client."
