Unbelievable Representation!
AnneMarie is the real deal. Do yourself a favor and hire her. She represented me on a BUI case and was phenomenal. Case was over in 2 weeks!

Compassion with toughness!
AnnMarie handle many hurdles in my daughters DUI case. Thankfully, she kept her out of jail, and kept me from being a basket case! Most always available, and if she was not, she got back to me quickly. Also assisted with getting her into a great rehab facility and stayed in touch! Highly recommend both AnnMarie, and her practice!

U.S. ARMY VETERAN REPRESENTATION

Anne-Marie Rizzo, and her exemplary, meticulous paralegal Beth Howard, are the best examples of professionalism and commitment I’ve seen in my 32 yrs.. As a Disabled Veteran of the U.S. Army, Anne-Marie and Beth treated me with the utmost of respect and dignity. Anne-Marie worked to gain my faith and...

The Law Place=the BEST!
I am a RN. I was wrongfully arrested, and couldn't work for almost 4 months until the case was closed. Would have been a lot longer without AnnMarie, Ret, and Beth's help. They always addressed all of my concerns, and always reassured me when I was freaking out. Professional, caring, genuine and WINNERS are a few words to describe them! Prosecutors all across the state know the team they are, and that they will fight for their client from many different angles. They SAVED my life and career, so I could go back to saving lives as a nurse. I trusted them with everything, and I'm SO thankful I hired them to represent me, and what was RIGHT. I would reccommed The Law Place any day to everyone! Amazing group, amazing people, and incredibly good attorneys!

AnneMarie is remarkable and I could not be more grateful to have had her represent me. I was unfortunately involved in a car crash that resulted in a fatality, and AnneMarie truly showed her dedication when representing me in my case. She was able to get the citation dismissed, and I am so thankful for her hard work. I could not recommend AnneMarie enough for how knowledgeable and devoted she is. Thank you.

Amazing outcome!
AnneMarie was superb. I could not have anticipated a better outcome to my DUI case! Through the entire process, AnneMarie put my mind at ease and addressed all my concerns. She was always readily available and answered my calls and emails promptly with complete and accurate information. She was efficient, well-informed and diligent in pursuing my case. There is no way that I can thank her enough. I highly recommend AnneMarie as she is a superb attorney.

Wonder Woman
AnneMarie is simply put, a phenomenal attorney. And yet she’s also so much more than that. When I was looking for representation for my multiple cases the words bewildered, embarrassed, and ashamed didn’t even begin to describe what I was feeling. However, from the first time I reached out to AnneMarie on the phone, I could tell she was someone I could truly trust. She is ethical, beyond compare. She knows the legal system inside and out and knows the proper way to operate within the system. Her loyalty to her clients shows in everything she says and does. Look at all of these other glowing reviews; she’s without a doubt the best choice. My case in particular was exceptionally emotional and difficult but she was completely honest with me from the start. I could tell this was going to be a long detail oriented process, one not to be rushed through. I’m so glad I listed to her advice and words of wisdom. Due to extenuating circumstances, I did have to remain in custody until trial. That was a whole other monster I was dreading. Yet throughout the entire process I never felt alone. I always knew that AnneMarie had my best interests, as well as everyone else’s involved, at the center of everything she did. With her guidance through the darkest time in my life, I made it through to the other side. I can happily say almost a year later, that reaching out and being completely open and honest with her was the best decision I’ve ever made. If you are in any kind of messy or confusing legal situation like I was, then please take my review to heart. AnneMarie Rizzo will not lead you wrong.

Performed a magic act!
This lady is unbelievable. I went to court expecting the worst, and got the best. Not going into detail, but she worked above and beyond to get me the best results. Would recommend this attorney to anyone!

Extraordinary Knowledge, Determination, Communication and Staff
I had the misfortune of being arrested for DUI. It is a humbling and frightening experience. I had the good fortune of retaining Ms. Rizzo and her Firm to defend and assist me through the process. The first thing that struck me about Ms. Rizzo was her absolute respect for the Law Enforcement Officers and the Prosecutors in my case. Because of that respect, channels of communication were always open to discuss my case. Second, Ms. Rizzo had a masterful understanding of the DUI process and demonstrated calm logical thinking that resulted in a favorable outcome for my case after 3 1/2 years. Third, Ms. Rizzo was awarded a Scientific Certification during her work on my case. It is an extraordinary individual that can manage what I'm guessing is a heavy caseload, attend school, and be awarded a Certification that fewer than 50 Attorneys in the United States have attained. Last, Ms. Rizzo's Firm and Staff were all extraordinarily polite and responsive to whatever concerns I had. Ms. Rizzo and her Firm are the highest examples of a Legal System that can still work for the good of all individuals with the right representation.

When Annemarie was a prosecutor, she quickly developed a reputation as a hardnosed competitor. As a defense lawyer, she has built that reputation, fighting hard for her clients with great results. Even though she is my competitor, I have to (grudgingly) say she is an excellent lawyer, and I wouldn't hesitate to send a loved one to her.

I have known Annemarie for way too many years. She is an exceptional human being. She is highly intelligent. She is an amazing attorney. She cares deeply for her clients, friends and family. I have begged her for years to return to Palm Beach to be a partner in my firm. I would trust her to help my friends and family without hesitation.

I opposed Annemarie a number of times on various motions and hearings while I served as an Assistant State Attorney. Suffice it to say, Annemarie is an absolute animal when it comes to defending her clients. She is tenacious, hardworking, extremely driven, and one of the smartest lawyers in town. As with the rest of the lawyers at Finebloom, Haenel & Higgins, she is always prepared to go to war when she reaches the courtroom. The State doesn't get a "free lunch" or win an "easy" motion against Annemarie.

I've known Annemarie for 3 years. I worked against her when she was a prosecutor and with her as a colleague in the practice area of criminal defense. I have known very few attorneys with the work ethic of Annemarie. I know her to work tirelessly in defense of her clients, always going the extra mile. She's an excellent attorney and an asset to any client.
