Posted by Billy d | January 30, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Helped me out BIG TIME.

I hired joe, and told him I got a speeding ticket, going over twice the speed limit and had informed him I have two points already, plus a dui. I hadn't mentioned my other past troubles with my driving record, (i.e. abandonment, leaving my car at the scene of a crash site, etc) and when we met at the... courthouse, he had a nice demeanor and to me seemed keen on helping me (Rather than just being there for a quick buck). After speaking with the prosecutor and joe not knowing of my other troubles, which I had thought were irrelevant, were relevant, the prosecutor was using this to get me to lose my license, joe had talked them down to a two point ticket and some community service. Just to clarify for anyone that doesn't know my driving history, it's terrible for a 24 year old, dui, speeding tickets, etc; Joe was a godsend and he really helped me out, when the judge could have easily taken my license away. He is cheap and I recommend him. Thank you joe, and I hope this helps bring in a few more customers or clients? Not sure what the term is. Anyone reading this review should hire him to represent you.

No points!

I got a ticket going 94 on route 78 which is a 4 point ticket. I figured that even with an attorney the best I could hope for was 2 points but Joe got me a 0 point deal. I am very happy with the result.

Professionalism at best

I was caught with speeding in Jersey, possibly facing 5 points, plus reckless driving or suspension of license, double fines in a 65mph zone etc. Mr JT was affordable, very professional about the whole case since the beginning and only made realistic promises. He was very cool and composed at the cou...rt and got me in and out with 0 points and lowest possible fine, possibly having everything you could ask for in an speeding lawyer.

Cheap prices but didnt do much

Lesson learned, sometimes you get what you pay for. This guy was $100 cheaper than another lawyer I called and I used this guy for my ticket in Morris County, but I think he didnt do much for me. I got the same deal as other people at the court who didnt have a lawyer. Not a bad guy just not worth pa...ying the price to only get two points off that I could have done if he didnt show up.

I would not recommend

I called Joe Truland for a free consultation asking him multiple questions about a traffic offense. His behavior and response was very rude. He responded “I can’t make a dime out of this” and hanged the phone up on me. I definitely would not recommend this lawyer because he is only in it for the mo...ney and when I asked if he can fight for me to get 0 points he wanted me to settle for 4 points which was the same deal the prosecutor would have offer me. Therefore his representation as a lawyer defeats the purpose of him trying to fight for 0 points was pointless.

Replied last December 10, 2020

This young woman called me on a Sunday and I spoke with her for 20 minutes. She called one month later on my cell phone, which I called her from. She has multiple tickets, about 18 points with probable suspension. I told her my opinion as to outcome. She told me then that she was given the same offer. I told her she should go back and take it, as it was a great deal and not waste money on a lawyer. I was doing her a big favor with free advice, twice, and trying not to take her money.
