Our firm is also unique in our handling of domestic defense cases, assisting those who have been falsely accused of domestic violence.

Assalone & Associates can help you fight these accusations and protect your best interests.

-
Full Coverage
Because our attorneys each have unique backgrounds and skills, our team approach helps us make sure that every facet of your case is considered and covered. We also get to know you and your unique needs to build a case that meets your goals.

Cost-Effective
With most firms, one attorney will handle every aspect of your case, even the small things that could be handled much more efficiently by a junior lawyer or paralegal. We use the least expensive resources needed to get the job done and we pass these savings on to our clients.
