Best criminal attorney EVER!!

Prosper was very professional, available at all times when I had any questions during the course of my case, excused every step as planed in a timely manner, not to mention helping me out with a payment plan. I truly appreciate his service and highly recommend him.

Expungement

Communication between Mr. Bellizia and I has been an essential part in successfully resolving this legal matter. Throughout the expungement process he walked us through every step and we were able to fully understand how long the process was going to take. His professionalism and knowledge made us ...feel that we were in good hands.

Posted by anonymous | November 15, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

One of the Best Traffic Violation Lawyers in New Jersey

Mr. Belliza is phenomenal. I was a facing a first-time, overall 6 point moving violation for bad driving behavior. Mr. Belliza was able to secure a dismissal on ALL of the charges brought against me and at significantly reasonable price! I highly recommend him to ANYONE within his jurisdiction as he ...will represent you with the utmost professionalism and care. As stated earlier, this was my first ever traffic violation summons and he was able to handle it with ease. Moving forward, I will only be hiring him for ANY traffic violations that ever come my way as the first impression he has left on me just cannot be explained only through words.

Very knowledgeable

Prosper handled my mother's case which involved motor vehicle violations. We found Prosper to be extremely responsive to any call or question that was posed. He is a caring attorney who is also very skilled. He fully understands the law and in our case, the governing town and how they conduct court p...roceedings. We were confident that he would give us the guidance needed and in the end, my mother's case was dismissed. We strongly recommend Prosper. We received worthwhile advice and excellent representation and had a favorable outcome using Prosper's services.

One of the best attorney in town

I was dealing with 5 point ticket for traffic violation. It was amazing to see the way Mr. Bellizia approached my case. He is very approachable as a person, very attentive, listens patiently and most importantly he is very professional. In the Edison court, he explained me very nicely about the proc...eedings and help me to get 0 points with less penalty. I would recommend him to anyone.

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.
