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.

Traffic ticket in Woodbridge Court.

I had a traffic ticket and hired them. showed up in court little late and was little bit worried, negotiate with the prosecutor and explained what to say and wave the points, over all he did a great job. I was very satisfied with his work.

Great service

Called office in regards to a traffic ticket. Due to being my first court appearance, I got a discount which was great as a college student. Day of court, my attorney was early and was very professional.

Don't hire this Firm...It is a waste of money. They didn't show up for my hearing

I hired the Shugar Law Firm to handle my case and they were absolutely awful from the start .Once they received payment for their services they refused to answer questions or take any kind of statement about the matter which they would be defending. I had one attorney tell me that we could email... each other about the case. After that I heard nothing from the firm.The first time that I spoke to an attorney was on my court date. It was very clear to that this person was extremely inexperienced. She couldn't even answer basic questions. Make a long story short, my case was continued so that Court could look Into a program. We were all served with papers to appear on a certain date and they didn't show up.

This is simply NOT true. You were charged with shoplifting in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. We appeared with you on July 2, 2014 and we were able to have you entered into the CAP program which is a diversionary program whereby once you successfully complete the program the shoplifting charges are dismissed. The CAP program in Bucks County, PA is a brand new program that has just been made available in Bucks County so all attorneys as well as court staff are doing their best to navigate through the new program. A date for your admittance to the CAP program was scheduled for July 22, 2014 for you to be admitted. Only you had to appear on the admittance date of July 22, 2014. We did exactly what we told you we were going to do by avoiding a shoplifting conviction. I can't understand why you are upset. If you are upset you should have called the office so that we could have discussed this. We have a fully staffed office that answers the phone. and promptly monitors e-mails. If you had a question there is absolutely no reason why you wouldn't be able to get in contact with us. I think you are just mad at the whole situation and you are taking it out on the only people who have actually helped you in though your entire situation. Is is simply wrong for you to do that. With that being said, we are still here to help and if you need assistance please do not hesitate to call us.
