Alex is very knowledgeable and prompt in returning calls. His entire staff worked diligently to make sure that my case was won. If you're looking for an aggressive attorney that knows the law inside and out...who will put his clients first and work tirelessly on their behalf, all while communicating what is going on every step of the way, Alex should be your first choice! I highly recommend Giribaldi & Manaras and if you look at their Google reviews, you'll see more reasons why you should give them a call when Experience and Aggressive Representation matter!

I sought out help from Giribaldi Manaras, PC in representing me for a traffic violation that occurred outside of the county that I live in. I had the pleasure of working with Alex, who went above and beyond in every aspect, despite the numerous obstacles that I presented. Not only was he flexible in rescheduling my court appearance on numerous occasions due to work and family obligations, but he was also very kind in easing my fears about appearing in court. Alex was very professional, down to Earth, and detailed. His fee was also very reasonable. I got the outcome that I hoped for and highly recommend

Just finished up a 10 year long Case with Alex. NO Jail time and a little probation. Very happy he chose to help me after 10 years when we originally started this case. Just wanted to say a public thank you to the most patient Lawyer and only lawyer. Thank you brother 🙏🏾

Over a year ago I found myself in an unfamiliar area facing some pretty serious charges. Alex Giribaldi was literally the first attorney suggested to me. He was described as a real “shark” IE he held no punches, accepted no nonsense and takes care of business. A few months into the proceedings nothing seemed to be progressing in my case via public defender so I did hire Alex. First of all he has a mass
amount of knowledge and is very personable... he’s efficient, intuitive, concise with his advice and makes the whole process highly comprehensive. You never feel as though you are one of many

Absolutely great experience! Both Alex & his team made sure I felt like a priority! From beginning to end they were on top of things & went above & beyond to take care of my case & requests along the way. Unlike many other lawyers who I have unfortunately used in the past, Alex responds very quickly & that type of communication feels good especially when left in an uneasy, time sensitive situation at that. If you’re looking for someone who will make you
feel like they’re going to bat for you & they will do their fullest to represent you this is the law firm to go with!

Alex was my 3rd Attorney during my long battle of divorce... My one previous attorney, I put so much hope in him trusting what he promised "less talk and more work".. yeah right !! And almost never showed up for some courts. And the other attorney raised their rate hourly after I became her client for a month .. I never knew with every email, phone calls, voicemails and little thing costs money to her and it was so quick my retainer money ran out and i still owed her money afterwards which i finally paid in full even tho' she's not my attorney anymore. One day, I made last minute phone call when

Alex and Pete helped my husband and I with several legal issues and were outstanding throughout. They put a lot of time and effort into the cases, were attentive to us and achieved great results. They were always available to answer any questions and to ease any uncertainty we had. I also really appreciated their assistance and caring for me when my husband passed away. They really are great guys that care about their clients. Nicole is always at the office with a smile, happy to answer the phone and to provide any assistance needed. She was a really big support as well. I would highly recommend

The office staff and Alex were incredibly helpful and friendly. They truly went "above and beyond" to answer questions I had. They were patient, friendly and gave me some good solid advice. I appreciated the brief conversations I had with them. It ended up that I did not need to hire legal counsel for my situation, and I appreciate that they were fair in assessing that (they didn't try to sell me what I didn't need, others might have). But Alex also didn't try to rush me off the phone. Two other firms never even returned my calls. But these guys were willing to invest a few minutes of their time

I did not feel that my experience with this law firm was very positive. At one point, I actually considered consulting another lawyer to see how I could terminate this relationship since I did not feel like I was a respected client or a priority.
I felt that the overall communication from Alex and his group was poor and I felt in the dark about the status of my case most of the time.
I felt that Alex and his paralegal, Nicole, both treated me with disrespect and not a valued client. It did not feel clear what their direction to me was at times, and when I asked for help, I did not feel like
