The best!

I was so nervous about the expungement process and avoided it for years but Tara was extremely knowledgable and made it completely painless for me. She was there to answer my questions every step of the way and a few months later it was all taken care of. I am so glad that I found her and would highl...y recommend Tara to anyone needing an attorney!

The absolute BEST criminal defense lawyer in the state of New Jersey!

If it was possible to give an attorney more than a 5-star rating, I would absolutely give it to Tara. If you are ever in the unfortunate situation of having to hire a criminal defense lawyer, Tara is the absolute only option. As far as a retainer fee is concerned, Tara's rate is EXTREMELY reasonable.... After consultations with several lawyers who quoted me almost twice the amount that I eventually came to pay Tara, it's more than clear that she is not in the field that she's in strictly for the money. She genuinely cares about her clients and goes absolutely above and beyond to help them, both from a legal standpoint and a personal one. Tara is a straight shooter who tells you exactly what you need to hear and doesn't sugar coat. For me, that is exactly the type of attorney that I needed. I was arrested in June of 201`5 for a felony charge and was absolutely scared out of my mind. I had never been in any sort of legal trouble, but that fright I felt quickly dissipated the second I retained Tara. Her confidence, brilliance and professionalism completely put me at ease. I honestly felt like I had an attorney who cared more about my well being and my future than she did her attorney fees, and that feeling was quickly proven true. Tara somehow managed to get my charges completely dismissed by the County Prosecutor without even having to make a single court appearance. Apparently I didn't learn my lesson the first time, because I went on to get arrested for another felony charge in November of 2015, shortly after my initial charge had been dismissed. This was a much more serious and complicated charge, but again I felt confident in Tara's ability to get the best possible outcome. During a time when I was at my absolute lowest, I once again felt confident with Tara in my corner. Tara genuinely cares about the well being of her clients, and showed this to me first hand. During a conversation early after my arrest, she did what she does best - told me exactly what I needed to hear, no matter how unpleasant it was for me to hear it. I've suffered from substance abuse for the past ten years. Tara was able to see the potential in me that I was completely wasting. She connected me with other people who are now sober and I am proud to say that I now have 100+ days sober due in large part to that initial conversation with Tara. As far as my second arrest is concerned, Tara was SOMEHOW able to work her magic and get that charge dismissed! TWO dismissals on two separate felony arrests in a six month DISMISSED! I am fully convinced that had I initially retained another attorney, that absolutely would not be the case. She has TONS of connections both at the municipal and county level and is able to leverage those connections as well as her unbelievable skill and professionalism to get her clients the best possible results. Tara is now handling the expungement of both of these charges, for which she's given me a SUBSTANTIAL financial break on price, and soon enough my record will be completely clear or any charges! I owe Tara my life and couldn't be happier with the results she was able to get me. You'd be foolish to hire any other attorney other than Tara Breslow!

I will always be Greatful to Tara Breslow

Around 4 years ago my oldest daughter was in trouble for driving on the revoked List 3rd time she was looking at real jail time . My daughter's friend recommended Tara Breslow . She went right to work and my daughter did not get any Jail Time. I saved her number in my phone and call Tara when my 20... year old daughter got into serous trouble with stealing a prescription paid and trying to use it. Tara reassured us that she would not get any jail time and hopefully get PTI . She spoke with a detective and convinced him not to press other charges. When we got to court she convinced the prosecutor to drop 1 charge that saved us a $1000 fine. She got my daughter PTI for 12 months and when completed my daughter with the help of Tara will have her arrest record Expunged . I watch her work her Magic in a police station and twice in a court room .She is a remarkable Attorney and I would recommend her to anyone. My family will always be grateful to her . Thank you Tara.

Excellent Attorney !!!!! 5 Star !!!!!

Mrs Tara Breslow helped me with a removal from the New Jersey Sex Offender Registration ... She was very knowledgeable and reasonably priced... While searching for the right Lawyer (Via internet search) Her experience in this matter is what guided me to her. She was more than accommodating where othe...r Lawyers didn't want the case. She made sure that every avenue was covered before she took my case, all this before any money was taken.... I couldn't have had any better representation and am truly blessed to have found her ..........
