Excellent Outcome

Had a cell phone violation for changing music while stopped at a red light. Unfortunately NJ treats this the same as operating a cell phone while moving. Was able to get ticket downgraded. Good communication with office and outcome was what lawyer said we could expect.

Bad experience, lawyer got me suspended

Used this attorney in a central New Jersey court. Problem is, he doesnt show up. he has someone come to court for him. I have a license from a midwestern state. This firm had me plea to an unsafe driving. Unfortunately my state reads this as a reckless and suspended my license! After many calls t...o the office and having them yell at me on the phone, they finally agree to go back to court. They end up telling me that the judge wont change it now and I am stuck with the deal they got me. SO NOW I AM SUSPENDED BY MY HOME STATE. The attorney's job is to know the law and how it will affect my license. I could have went myself aand plead to the charge and not been messed up like this. Total waste of money. I only picked this guy because he was $50 cheaper than someone else. Evidently this guy is just a mailing service and this attorney never comes to court he just hires out others to show up for him. Very angry and disappointed. Now I cant drive for a month.

Every part of this review makes no sense. I have no idea who you are as you posted "anonymously". We stand behind our work. Had an out of state driver received points due to our representation we have a procedure in place to fix the issue. We certainly would not yell at a prior or current client....we would fix the issue which is relatively easy to fix and communicate the NJ no point resolution to your home state. So i can only guess this is obviously a negative post from a competitor keyboard warrior. And if it is not then you should call me at the office so we can fix the issue you are having. I doubt I will ever get that call because this is a fictitious review.

Great Representation

The Lawyer took the time out,and assess my moving violations case.If I know I was in the wrong than I would have worn that ticket.But a certain court system is so deceitful the secret wrote me up for 2 tickets for the same violation.Which I didn’t find out until I try to setup a court date for not gu...ilty. The lawyer Heard my complete story on what had happened.Made a decision what he felt the municipality was doing unjust.And then went into court hearing;spoke with thee prosecutors and came out with a fair proceedings.I was very impressed with the lawyer knowledge of that jurisdiction and rules.Because I am from a totally different area.And Eventhough I am hardly ever in a courtroom. The lawyer did a superb job in representing me.I totally would vouch for this firm for doing and outstanding job.

Fast service

My attorney, Greg Shugar was Steller. He helped me with a traffic violation with points. It was pleaded down to a non moving violation. The transaction was simple, easy, and our court appointment was maybe 15 minutes. I highly recommend his firm.

Quick and Easy

I received a ticket for going through a yellow light. On the morning of court they called out names for people to speak with the prosecutor. I was about 25th in line. I heard a voice calling my name, then a person said, "I'm Natalie. I'm your lawyer." She then went to speak to the prosecutor wit...hout waiting in line, In five minutes she came back to tell me that I would get no points, and the fine should not be high. We went into the courtroom and in another five minutes my case was heard. The fine was four dollars more than it would have been if I had paid it and kept the points. The Shugar lawyer made this quick, easy and less expensive that it might have been. Thank you!
