Retained him after my home was broken into and i was ARRESTED .. Told all sorts of nonsense . Should have hired a Criminal defense attorney from Brooklyn or Manhattan . Turned into a script .. Courts are a joke and so was Pat Parotta . He made a statement to me that stuck " He has understandings down there ( COURTHOUSE) with a supervising judge not to mess with her ( judge) Cathy Didomenico . Then he tells me "i talked to the Bald Guy no matter what your guilty" ...so this is how courts work in America ? No day in court , one denied their rights to a fair trial ? The lil girl DA "owned" him ! I had to send Parotta back in the court room because messed up , hey Pat did you hear what she ( da ) said ? BECAUSE thats NOT what you told me !! N wtf is this 2 year order Pat ...thats NOT what you told me , why didnt you speak up ! My mistake was not filing a complaint against the judge who i told parotta i knew & should have recused herself n Parotta for his bs stories. & Leaving me a target ! Also Dan Donovans office was violating ppl rights witholding ACD so he could pump up his scores while destroying ppl lives all the other boros DA offices found this odd but again here they're ALL friends Cronysm & Nepotism reins supreme on SI ! But nice to see Dan pulling strings for his Baby Mama & her son ! Naturally NO OUTCRY from the criminal defense community on SI ! Parotta goes back in comes out n tells me "im sorry" ...he took my $ n ran did nothing n guess what ? I was falsely arrest again ! ( GOT A DIFFERENT LAWYER N WALKED OUT OF THE COURTHOUSE W AN APOLOGY FROM THE CRIMINAL COURT JUDGE ) Parotta f *** up an easy case ive had several lawyers ask me " how are you arrested in YOUR OWN home n HOW are you found guilty !! I got SOLD OUT by him This is and was bullshit ...end result of his help was me having to say I did something that I didn't, he also he recommended another attorney to me George Seighardt who takes a retainer goes away on vacation and did absolutely NOTHING ! Absolutely NOTHING ! An empty folder said it all .! An absolute SCRIPT N he was useless and between the two of them I've lost hundreds of thousands of dollars ! He followed the Script ...disgusting . All they care about is taking your money n following a script ...that is it Do yourself a favor , hire real lawyers off Staten island , here they are all FRIENDS , won't go to bat for you and the courts are a script .. everything that's WRONG with Staten Island ..! When someone BREAKS INTO ONES HOME and the Victim of the crime becomes the guilty party there are serious problems ... Serious issues need to be addressed .. No wonder these ppl post fake n shill reviews about themselves ! If it wasnt for the fake reviews theyd have NO GOOD REVIEWS ! Im "SURE" Caitlin F needed 2 "Criminal Defense Attorneys" ...she seems like an origional gangster ...PATHETIC SUMS IT UP ! Stay away from "RAT Parotta" ! His loyalty is with the DA office ! Nice 25 year old newspaper clips ....keep livin the dream .. shouldn't Lou Diamond get credit for those ? Fwiw : google reviews ALL SHILLS , Pat "whines" to google ! Having TRUE reviews removed ! N two appear here in one day , and others all from GIRLS who dont review the hair place , nail place or TACO place but review their CRIMINAL LAWYER ? seems like the TRUTH seems to bother Parotta . There are MUCH better choices out there DONT make the same mistake i did ! Saw your associate "RALPH CASELLA" in the ad YOU put up if i knew you were friends w that piece of shit i NEVER would have bothered with you ! I stand by ALL my comments id swear to them under oath & id take a polygraph ! read more

Patrick is amazing!!! He got my case closed sealed and dismissed less then 4 months from arrest. He's more of a family lawyer to us and I would NEVER call anyone else. He gets the job DONE. He's honest and plays NO games. I'm a RN and never got into trouble everrrr until October 2021. He made the most uncomfortable moments easy. I called from the holding cell.....and by the time I saw the judge the judge ALREADY knew I retained him. I can go on and on..... but to simplify it.... He's a god of law! seriously read more

Patrick represented my daughter in a felony case. I believe some of the steps taken saved my daughter's life at the time. He worked with the DA and judge to take actions that were truly in my families best interest. I can't hug a memory. His support staff is also excellent, which is extremely important. The office staff is there to help when he is in court. You will be well served by hiring Patrick Parrotta to represent you. read more

I do not have enough words to express my gratitude to Pat. He was my guardian angel throughout this entire ordeal. He kept me sane, reassured, and confident that everything was going to work out. Anyone that has been arrested knows how scary of a mess it is. I am telling you, PAT IS YOUR GUY. I walked away with clean hands after thinking that my life and career were essentially over. read more
