This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Efficient Law firm

My husband had a case for 34 years and we were too afraid to face it until thanks to Mr. Seymour who I called and gave him all the details he immediatly contacted Mr. Helmer. Mr. Helmer gave us the confident and promised to solve the case that was haunting my husband for all these years and in less t...han 2 months my husbands case was DISMISSED.

The Best in NJ

Mr. Helmer and his partner James Conley are among the best NJ criminal defense attorneys out there! When you are charged with a crime that the facts just do not support you feel scared and sometimes alone. Mr. Helmer had my issue settled within 2 weeks and I could nor be happier. This was not just an...y issue either, it was a superior court case dealing with felony conviction. His knowledge of the law and his relationship with other lawyers and prosecutors alike make him the best choice. He is fair and honest upfront! Call him, his motto is right, your problem will be solved!

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse him. I have known Mr. Helmer as a prosecutor and as a defense attorney. I met him about 28 years ago when he was a prosecutor, and I handled many criminal defense cases. Back then, it was clear that he definitely knew the law very well, and that he was a gentleman who was not looking to convict everyone, but to make sure that justice was served. Within a matter of a few years, he opened his own firm of criminal defense attorneys, and I have had the opportunity to refer many clients to him. He knows how to take care of his clients. He really cares, and he gets the best results he can for his clients. He also has assembled a great team of attorneys, many of whom are former prosecutors, who are now dedicated to helping people that have been accused of crimes. He also has a company that gives seminars on continuing legal education for lawyers. I have attended them, and they are excellent. If you need an excellent criminal attorney, Mr. Helmer is the man."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Yaron "Ron" Helmer exemplifies the best of the profession. We have worked together on numerous matters for most of my professional career. Every matter he handles is treated as if it is his only case and given top priority in the development of the defense via investigation and experts or negotiation with the county prosecutor. His knowledge of the law, skill as a trial attorney and just a genuinely good person make him a top choice for anyone charged with a crime in New Jersey."

He has earned the respect of his fellow lawyers, prosecutors and judges through his tenacious and professional legal skill. Most importantly, his status of as a first-rate advocate is the result of decades of successfully representing scores of clients. Ron combines creativity with a high degree of intellectual fortitude, a potent combination in the legal arena."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Ron is the definition of a Type A personality. I worked for Ron's firm for two years and I was able to witness firsthand how Ron worked fifteen hour days, seven days a week to fight for his clients. As a former county assistant prosecutor, we knew Ron would accomplish his task through his tireless effort and his superior knowledge of the law. I saw Ron accomplish the impossible and people termed his work effort as being "Helmerized" a term only one can understand after their experience as a client or an adversary."

  • 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.
