Excellent representation

I contacted Carl one week before my first court date and within days I knew I had made the right decision. He is experienced, knowledgeable and very honest. By the time court day came the case resolved in a way we both did not expect due to Carl's tactfullness. Hopefully I won't need his services aga...in but for anyone who is looking for a great criminal defense lawyer, Carl is the way to go!

THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS

Carl Spector is a jerk.....that being said you want the jerk to be on your side and not the other!!! Carl had the officer shaking in his boots from the very beginning. His legal services are worth every penny. After a year of stressing and worrying the outcome was a dismissal! You want the best ? Com...e to Carl and rest assured he will do everything in his power to get you back to your normal life. Thanks for everything Carl, you will definitely be kept in my lawyer database!!!

Thank you for posting the great, if not somewhat eye catching review. We did fight hard for the result we received. We did it together. Thank you for the confidence that you had in me. Good luck and stay in touch.

Better Call Carl Spector!

I hired Carl for a second time on a moving violation. By the books I was looking at a 6 month suspension of my driver’s license, points against my driver’s license and a hefty fine to pay. I don’t know how Mr. Spector does it but, I received only a 10 day suspension, no points and a modest fine to ...pay. Mr. Spector is always up front with you and never sugar coats the possible outcome. He always gives you reality first, worst case and best case possible outcomes. He has been in his profession long enough to accurately predict possible outcomes of the case he is handling and he is well respected among his colleagues. The court environment is very intimidating if you have never been there (and I don’t recommend it to anyone). But, if you need someone to represent you until the very end and protect your interest, Mr. Spector is the right person to be with. He is a Class A professional worth every cent. Thanks again Carl for you professional service and your due diligence. I was satisfied with the outcome.

Great Lawyer and Great Person

I hired Carl as my attorney for DUI charges I was facing in NYC. From the first call to finally getting closure on the case 1 year later, Carl always took the time to answer any questions and explained all the nuances of the legal process. Best of all, He fought for me all the way till the end and ...he was able to get my case DISMISSED! I highly recommend using his services.

The Best.

With the help of Carl Spector, I was able to find vindication. In what was clearly an accident, the New York legal system portrayed the incident as an intentionally violent crime. The System doesn't care about the lives it damages: It cares about numbers; however, I am a real person, and without C...arl, the system would have done real and unjustifiable long term damage to my career and personal life. This would have directly impacted future job prospects and my relationship with my child. At times, it is questionable whether anyone cares about one life: Carl does. In short, Carl Spector saved my life. Bukowski once said "You save the world by saving one man at a time, all else is grandiose romanticism or politics." I will never forget what you did for me. Thank you.
