"Extremely rude secretary resulted in my hanging up halfway through contacting them. Lawyer actually reached out over this review originally being 1 star. While the secretary's behavior was unacceptable, the lawyer made a legitimate effort to fix this issue. When a client calls you telling you that the court, police, and his own defense attorney have been LYING to them, then there will be inaccuracies in the statements with out it being their fault. The inconsistencies you catch the in are probably because they were lied to not they themselves were lying."

"A couple months ago our son was arrested while up at UMass visiting one of his best friends. We were in shock and all very upset as he is a college student as well and had never been in any trouble before. He had too much to drink and did something he immediately regretted and still does. I called a couple friends for advice and was immediately referred to Nate Amendola. We called on the weekend and he got back to us right away despite being out at lunch and that he would contact us when he was free later in the day, which he did. Without any commitment we discussed what had happened, our son's backround, etc... and he advised us on our options and what we could expect. Nate said he would be happy to help us further should we decide to. We did and they thoroughly explained what they wanted to do and he communicated clearly and promptly along the process. They made both us and our son feel at ease and handled the case like they had hoped and we are forever grateful."

"A Life Restored – The Best Legal Representation You Could Ever Hope For I was facing one of the darkest moments of my life—a criminal charge involving reckless endangerment of a child. My future, my family, and everything I had worked so hard for was hanging in the balance. I felt ashamed, hopeless, and completely lost. The case was already moving in a direction that seemed impossible to come back from. I was mentally and emotionally prepared for the worst. Then I found Nate Amendola Defense. I chose Nate not just because of his outstanding reputation, but because from the very first interaction, I felt something different. He didn’t treat me like a case file—he treated me like a person. He saw past the charge and into the whole picture of who I am. That humanity, combined with his exceptional legal skill, is what made my choice clear. Nate represented me in Plymouth County District Court. From the start, he communicated with transparency and compassion, laying out every step of the process. He was honest about the challenges but never made me feel like I was beyond help. He worked tirelessly—not just within the legal system but as a partner in helping me reclaim my life. He strategized, advocated, and above all, fought for me. The result? The charge was dismissed. A case that seemed set in stone was completely turned around. I can still barely believe it. This outcome has changed everything for me. I have my peace of mind back. But more than that, I have a second chance at life—a fresh start I never thought was possible. I wake up every day with deep gratitude and the determination to never take this opportunity for granted. Nathaniel Amendola is not just the best criminal defense attorney I’ve encountered—he is a life-changer. If you’re scared, overwhelmed, and feel like your back is against the wall, Nate is exactly who you want in your corner. His presence, his wisdom, and his heart make him truly one of a kind."

"Nate and Sam handled my matter with professionalism and made me feel like everything was going to be okay. I highly suggest listening to them and doing everything they say when faced with a DUI charge. I had 2 DUI charges in different districts which can be confusing to navigate but Amendola Defense acted quickly to make sure the proper information reached both districts so that I wouldn’t be held in jail for longer than necessary. I am now able to walk away from this with no guilty verdicts because of their help."
