Knows exactly what needs to be done

I was looking for a Criminal lawyer to help me with shop lifting case for a family member. Personal Touch: I chose him because he had shown interest at personal level asking where-about and what happened instead of just quoting price for his services. He listened! (A rare quality) Communication: Mr.... Spector is from New Jersey, I'm located in different city and client is in another country. This happened during COVID-19 times. How tricky the situation could be, he's always available to our calls and answered any questions asked. Price: I was asked to pay exactly for what he has done. He's reasonable with his pricing . Documentation: He gathered all documents needed. He clearly knows what info should be presented and what shouldn't be. He reached out to prosecutors way before the judgement date, followed up with them. Adaptive: He's adaptive to new ways of working during Covid-19 since hearing went through Zoom video call. Very professional: You should see him on hearing date, very impressive work! I have seen all his experience come to play, presentation skills are amazing, very authoritative with his perspective, lightened the mood of the room when he could and finally got dismissal. He also asked for Expedited expungement so i don't have to pay an additional 2000$ to get it done later.He knew how things work and get things done! Thank you: is a small word to describe the efforts he put in. He saved life of an immigrant!

Wow! Thank you for detailing your review as you did, it truly is a "GREAT" review. It is hard to get all the details across when we are not able to meet in person and in this case you are out of town and so was the client. But with persistence by YOU and me we worked together and "got it done" and I am thrilled that it worked out so well. Let me know if you have any questions. Best to you and your family. Carl

Carl represented us in a case, and he was terrific!! He understood the matter quickly, came up with a strategy, and executed exceptionally. Carl worked well with all parties involved, came in early, and always kept us informed of what was going on. We achieved our goal, and I am very grateful for Car...l's dedication to this matter! Thanks, Carl!!

A Challenging Case

We hired Carl Spector for our son, immediately following an unfortunate accident resulting from a DUI. From the initial consultation Carl was thorough in his communications, explaining with care, the severity of charges and what to expect at each stage. We were in constant contact for approximately ...5 months, which at times were rocky, considering the severity. His years of experience on both the defense and prosecution side, helped put us more at ease. He demonstrated that he cares, and reassured us that he will fight on our son's behalf, smartly. In the end, we believe we arrived at what could be considered the best possible outcome for our son, due primarily to Carl's negotiation skills, caring, and understanding of the law. I'm happy with our decision to hire Carl, but hope that I never have to see him again, under THESE type of circumstances. ;-) Signed- "MamaBear"

Great experience

He worked hard and came through to get me the lowest possible penalty. Always answered the phone and easy to contact at any time, or called back very quickly. Also broke down the court process and told me exactly what to expect. I highly recommend him.

DWI perfect storm LOL

My husband had a DWI plus other tickets Carl sat down with us and went over every detail and answered every question. At the end he ended up with the DWI only which was a win for us. He was amazing!!!!
