Civil Litigation - Private

Rating:8.3
Comments:
A pleasure to be in his courtroom. All around a nice person who listens to both sides. Courtroom and chambers nicely run. Makes diecisions within 60 days. Treats women, men youing and old the same. Cant say I am always elated with his decisions, but so what, my cases arent always so good either.

When you appear before Justice Bucaria, you are treated with dignity and integrity. He has a command of the law and its history. A pleasure to appear before!

This Judge is an embarassment. He is arrogant but knows nothing of the law, and makes serious legal errors. He is rude to parties and counsel. His decisions are plainly outcome determinative. Give me Judge Driscoll any day.
