Excellent lawyer

Ric exceeded my expectation with the deal he got with the prosecutor. He got 2 of my tickets dismissed and amended the 3rd one to a lesser charge. He was nice too and explained everything thoroughly to me. I was in and out of the court in less than 30 minutes.

Efficient and professional

After I got three moving violation tickets in one go: speeding, reckless driving, and delaying traffic, I didn't know what to do but I know I had to hire an experienced traffic attorney to take on my case. Police said I was going 101 mph in a 65 mph zone so I was facing 10 points on my clean driving ...record. I was quite stressed about this. I was warned of jail time and license suspension by other lawyers but from when I first spoke on the phone with Ric, I felt reassured of his expertise. I work full-time so a license suspension would have caused a lot of problems, especially since my workplace is not accessible by public transit. In the end, Ric was able to get my charges down to 2 points (speeding 79 mph in a 65 mph zone) and dismiss my delaying traffic and reckless driving charge. Ric doesn't over-charge like some other attorneys, and he still took care of my case well. Thanks so much Ric! Really appreciate your help.

Fast. Professional. Efficient.

I had 13 DWS (yes, thirteen). I had given up on driving for over a decade as no lawyer in the tri state area would touch this case and my last 3 offenses with a ten ft pole. Ric was able to get all the remaining charges dismissed *and* I didnt have to make a trip up (I currently live in Atl). What I ...was trying to do in the past 5 years, Ric handled in a matter of 3 mos and make it look so effortless where others lawyers were giving me the song and dance. If you have a problem with your license in NJ, see this man 1st. Ric, I cannot thank you enough.

Looking for a great lawyer? Look no further

Ric was the first lawyer to call me after I emailed a few others after my traffic incident , he spoke clearly and made sure I understood what I was being charged with and what he could possibly do to help. He ended up helping me out greatly in court and was prompt and I had full confidence in him the... whole time. I eventually called him again for another court charge and he helped me out with that as well. He is fair with his fees and is worth every penny.

Case of Mt Olive Twp vs DS

Ric made the best of my case from the get go..and from a combination of what I think was his legal expertise, great people skills etc. he was able to get the charges to a bare minimum and I ended up paying a very small fine and came out as best as possible under the circumstances. If anyone wants an... attorney who not only works with you like a friend but who also makes things as painless as possible while keeping you informed all the way and promptly getting back to you at all stages re your legal options, Ric Futerfas Esq. is your man, I can't thank him enough but I will try by referring business his way!

  • 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.
