      A reprimand is an order from the Statewide Grievance Committee after it has found that an attorney has engaged in ethical misconduct.

    Great Representation

    Posted by

    Attorney Friedman put my mind at ease from the first call I made with him through the end of my case. He is very knowledgeable of the system and makes the whole process accessible and easy as a client.

    I had never used a defense attorney prior to my case with Allan. He made me feel comfortable throughout the process and always told me exactly what was going on. Highly recommend!

    Great guy

    Posted by

    From the moment I spoke with Allan he was professional , direct , and reassuring he could do his best, and work diligently to get the best outcome for my case but made no promises . I was extremely nervous and he did everything he could to ease my nerves and make me feel at ease . He ultimately got my case dismissed after a couple of court dates and explained everything in detail along the way . It was a great experience and I really appreciate his representation he’s a great person and the ultimate professional !

    ABSOLUTELY EXCEPTIONAL ATTORNEY

    Posted by

    I give Allan a 10 out of 5 - he is that good and far beyond excellent !!! Allan handled my traffic matter with the highest level of professionalism, empathy and efficiency that anyone could ever ask for. From initial consultation to final outcome, Allan listened to me and put my mind at ease. He quickly developed multiple options for me and a plan of action to follow with the best possible outcomes. The results of my case were miraculous and by far exceeded my expectations. My recommendation to anyone facing a legal issue is to contact Allan immediately and not waste time figuring out who to hire – trust me on this. This world needs more people like Allan and I’m very fortunate that he made a difference in my life which I will always remember and be grateful for – THANK YOU Allan and GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS !!!

    DUI troubles

    Posted by

    I hired Mr. Allan Friedman to be my lawyer for my case, I received a DUI that involved an accident. Mr. Friedman helped me not get any time in prison, he was kind and professional during the entire time I employed him for his services. I would highly recommend him to anyone who has any similar situations because he will do his absolute best to help out his clients.
