I have never experienced such rude behavior, the Asian girl at reception was extremely unprofessional. Overall my experience here with lawyers and staff was poor.

I have dealt with Portelli & Co with Guy Messina nearly 28 years ago and still to this day this many holds a spot dear to me. I had a very difficult custody battle held between two states as my ex was fighting me for custody of my two children. Guy was real, gutsy power pack and still to this day is. I have referred many of my clients to him for family law issues and everyone reports back to me how much he has supported and achieved for them. Highly recommend Guy and the team.
