Grateful

Mr. Spector was hired as my husband's attorney. Given the delicate situation of his legal status we were very hesitant and nervous about the entire process. Mr. Spector was very reassuring and comforting throughout the wait period and up until the scheduled court date. He eased us in and out of the ...court room with a dismissal of charges. We were surprised and thrilled that we were not penalized with a fine/fee. We are beyond relieved and greatly appreciative that he was able to take this weight off of our shoulders. I highly recommend Mr. Spector.

Thank you Carl!

I can wholeheartedly recommend Carl Spector to anyone out there that has had the misfortune to get a DWI. I'm a 46 year old professional who was pulled over in NYC after a birthday celebration and booked for DWI and possession. Not a typical night for me and not my finest hour! Shortly after get...ting out I found Carl on line and contacted him. He was very reassuring and non-judgmental. Carl was extremely easy to get a hold of and always answered my emails or voice mails immediately. He contacted the prosecutor assigned to my case, who happen to be someone he used to work with and plead my down. Instead of a DWI and Possession I was only charged with a DWAI and Disorderly Conduct [both are "violations" and not "crimes"]. So thanks to Carl I have no criminal record.

A+ lawyer in NYC

I want to start this review by stating I had the unfortunate experiencing of being arrested by the NYPD and being charged with a DUI. I spent an evening and the following day in jail, which was a horribly miserable and humiliating experience. Once I got back on my feet, I was incredibly nervous, an...xious, and scared as to what was to come with my charges. I began to search the internet for NYC DUI lawyers and as one can imagine, was overwhelmed with the amount of information that was given to me upon googling this search query. I am a firm believer in online reviews, as this is how many of my purchases are made in online marketplaces such as Amazon. After a few hours of reading reviews on Avvo and other websites, I found Carl Spector. I called his office expecting to speak with a secretary or someone similar, but was greeted by Carl himself. He was very well spoken, courteous and I could immediately tell he was a cut above the rest. He helped to calm my fears about the mess I was in, and asked a plethora of questions to gain more insight on my case. At the end of the call he assured me that he had my best interest and would fight to win my case. After many weeks of communicating by email, phone and text (he is VERY responsive with communication) we went to court. Carl played the cards right and I was able to receive a DWAI (traffic infraction, not a DUI). Obviously, I was relieved, but I was also impressed at how well spoken and prepared Carl was at trial. I cannot recommend Carl Spector enough. He is a top notch lawyer and an all around swell guy. Thanks again Carl.

UK Citizen clueless about US/NY Law

Very understanding, sincere, polite with a sense of humor shows how down to earth this guy really is. Only Lawyer i spoke to through Avvo who was actually interested in myself and my job and asked all the right questions for what i felt was potentially good personal representation. I had several m...isdemeanor charges (while under the influence of alcohol and not driving related) against my name with the possibility of up to 1 year in jail. With his expert and knowledgeable advice i was able to enter into a plea deal where my charges were dropped to a violation (which would not affect my work and ability to enter the USA) and a very small fine with 6 days community service. I would happily recommend MR Spector to anyone after his expert help with my case.

Outstanding Attorney!

I recently had a misdemeanor case and I had a great experience with Mr. Carl Spector. I felt very confident from the first day I spoke to him at his office. An amazingly bright expert in law he made me feel secure and I believed I had the right professional on my side. I saw his powerful competence i...n every step of the process. Mr. Spector was a deep analyst and great strategist. He always was ahead and aware of what's coming and made the right decision. Always he communicated with me on time with an admirable patience and unique simplicity. His intelligent way of thinking, followed by a very practical and precise strategy brought my case to a dismissal. Mr. Carl was a very correct, energetic professional that treated my case not as an outsider. He dedicated himself to my nightmare as a human and comforted me as real gentleman. It was a real pleasure working with an outstanding attorney like Mr. Spector. I will be grateful to him for the rest of my life. Thanks Mr. Spector! I very strongly recommend Mr. Carl Spector to everyone.
