Posted by Veronica | April 27, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Highly recommend

It was a pleasure working with Christopher Cifrodello. With a ticket that could have been very costly, Mr Cifrodello was very forthcoming with what he believed he could do, and he certainly followed through! Would highly recommend to my family and friends, as well as anyone in need of legal assistanc...e in motor vehicle issues!

James Pierce

Mr Cifrodello represented me in a moving traffic violation that I preferred not be a part of my driving abstract. After numerous postponements by the court due to the Covid-19 outbreak, Mr Cifrodello sought out a reduction of charges to a non moving violation with no court appearance required. Job we...ll done! Thank you

Mrs. G

Mr. Cifrodello and his team are very professional and help me a lot in handling my problem with traffic tickets that I've got. I am very satisfied with his services and will recommend him as a high level professional lawyer.

Criminal &Traffic matters dismissed..

Mr. Cifrodello represented me on several traffic tickets as well as a criminal charge. I walked out of court with a smile. Everything was dismissed. I am happy with his services and happy with the results he got for me out of the Perth Amboy Municipal Court. Thank you Chris. You are the man!

Posted by Jeury | January 16, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Don't look any further call chris today you won't be disappointed

Best lawyer around you would not find no one better I guarantee it. I got 3 tickets and he was able to dismiss them all. I got a cell phone ticket and a moving violation which carried a penalty of 2 points plus another ticket, I left the court room with everything dismissed. Thank you chris you are t...ruly great at what you do.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
