"I retained Mr. Petro (MJ) on June 3,2025 for my 26 year old son who had some serious charges, i wanted someone who’s been in the game for 20 plus years and on the morning of June 3 I started my google search and Mr. Petro name popped up on my first attempt, I read ALL the reviews first then I saw he has 35 plus years of experience followed by a 5 STAR RATING so yes I had to hire this young man and I’m extremely grateful that I DID!! Yes it was a process and I honestly didn’t know what to expect being that it was the first time I’ve been put in this type of situation, my son was growing impatient wanting to be free from incarceration but I keep assuring him that Mr. MJ has everything under control and THAT HE DID! Everytime I text Mr. Mj he responded that DAY, NIGHT and or MORNING, he kept me updated and every court hearing he attended he called me immediately after explaining what transpired and what’s the next move he didn’t leave any stones unturned! Mr. Petro is very DIRECT, Straight Forward, PROFESSIONAL, COMPASSIONATE and most importantly very UNDERSTANDING, he tells you what you NEED to hear and not what you WANT to hear!! I’m overjoyed with the outcome of my son court proceedings as well as my son being EXTREMELY SATISFIED with the outcome as well! I will recommend Mr. Petro to anyone that’s in need of a PROFESSIONAL, HONEST and TENACIOUS LAWYER!!!! Thank you Mr. Petro!!!!!"
