Traffic tickets in Jersey City

I hired Mr Ravelo for a traffic matter in Jersey City. I had four points and could not take an unsafe driving ticket due to my job. He was cool, calm, collective and honest. He was very attentive and reasonably priced. He got me zero points with a small fine. I can’t thank him enough, simply a excell...ent lawyer.

Loss of words

I consulted with Mr. Ravelo concerning my aggravated assault charges on a police officer and he seemed distracted and preoccupied. He wanted to meet with me again to discuss it further in consultation which I would have to pay for. At the end of the consultation I asked Mr.Ravelo if he would be able... to represent me as the case was near and he strongly insisted on a second consultation which would take place sometime in the next “two weeks.” Long story short, I found better representation and got P.T.I. I haven’t had to hire lawyers often, but I would steer clear of this one; he seemed so nice on the phone, but I guess first impressions can be deceiving.

This is a fake review. I have requested it to be investigated by Avvo. 1) MY CONSULTATIONS ARE FREE. 2) When I meet with prospective clients, I am focused on their specific issue(s). I know legal issues can be some of the most stressful times in anyone’s life. This is why I am very accessible and attentive to my clients. 3) Time is money for all of us. A second consultation in the above "anonymous review" would have been a waste of time, especially with pending charges hanging over a client's head. I wouldn't waste your time or my own. I will work efficiently and persistently to solve your issues. Bottom line, this review is a well written fabrication. Likely from an adversary who has been exposed by my work. I also handle matters involving child support, custody and divorce. If you need a free consultation please contact me at (201) 888-2255.

Mr.Ravelo

I have had Mr. Ravelo represent in three separate possession cases. He beat one at trial and got ordinances on the other two! He picks apart the states evidence and knows how to talk to people to get what he wants. Because of Mr. Ravelo I have a great job that required a clean record. Thank y...ou Mr. Ravelo

Best criminal defense lawyer !

It was my 4th time getting charged for possession of Marijuana , had already used up the conditional discharge in my past cases so that was out of the question. I was facing a possesion conviction, I couldnt afford a criminal record because of my career, he advised me that we take the case to trial i...n hopes of getting the charges downgrade to an ordinance. He worked really hard at trial and he was able to get my possession and paraphanilia charges all DISMISSED ! Not even a fine for either charge. He truly is one of the best lawyers in NJ, he doesnt take their clients for granted, hes always responsive and very knowledgeable about his law practice. Mike is a 10 out of 10 hands down. If you ever find yourself facing any type of chrages he is the man to call!

  • 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.
