I just want to say thank you to John Sitsler and his team of professionals who help me when I was in an accident I had received 10 tickets in the mail 3 weeks after I was released out of trauma unit I felt like I had the rug ripped out from under me I didn't know what I was going to do A... very good friend referred me to John I sat down and talked with him and within 10 minutes he had me calmed down and my anxiety from a level 10 to a 2 That's when I knew he was lawyer for me I was confident in everything he said It was drawn out over a couple months but John & his team kept me calm and posted with everything that was going on and that's just what I needed a positive outlook Long story short I wound up with 1 ticket and couple little fines just like John had explained to me all along He was a man of his word I would highly recommend his firm

The best you can get!

I was referred to John by a friend who used him previously and got amazing results when faced with two DUI's. I myself was facing my second DUI within a year time frame. I knew the penalties and fines associated with a second DUI and never expected the outcome that John was able to get for me. He i...s honest, professional, caring, and goes above and beyond to represent his clients in the best possible way. John explained everything thoroughly and from the first visit with him eased my worries and concerns. He didn't settle, even with having to postpone several times over a 6 month period, to get the results needed to win the case. He precisely was able to prove and point out where the state police made errors and executed on them with utmost professionalism, care and determination. John was able to get the second DUI completely dismissed and downgraded to reckless with only a minimal amount of licensed loss time. The results John got were beyond my expectations. From his office staff, Laura and Deana, who were always warm and welcoming and made you feel completely comfortable every time you call, visit or need anything, to the way he represents you and goes about your case, you are truly getting the best. I would highly recommend John for any and all of your legal needs. There is no one better to represent you. You will not regret it.

Seriously the BEST South Jersey DUI lawyer

So I jus went to court yesterday to finally resolve my second “unoffical” dui. This is the second time I used Mr.Sitzler. I used him for my first “unoffical” dui and he was amazing!!! I’ll just concentrate on yesterday’s outcomes.... this being my unoffical second one, I was alil nervous that I was ...gonna lose my driving privlages longer or get downgraded to something with still a lot of points.... I blew a 0.10 which is above the limit. John was able to get me down to 2 months loss of driving and “failure to maintain lane”!!!!! That is amazing for me!!!! I already have a ton of points on my L and was sooo worried what the down grade was going to be. My first dui when I used John, I had a small accident w the dui and John got it downgraded to a reckless and 1 month loss of driving. so I would even say that this second unoffical dui had a better outcome with the failure to maintain lane n 2 months loss of driving.... I can live with that!!!! I wanna say that John was very very patient as our court dates were on going for 6 months!!! He was able to clearly point the finger where the police n state messed up to get me out of this mess!! So if you want it done right, Mr.Sitzler will work with you and will not give u any false hope. When I got my second dui, I knew I was 100% hiring him with out a doubt!

Best dui lawyer in NJ

This right here has to be the best dui lawyer in NJ He recently did a case for me and all I ended up with was a reckless driving. He is a miracle worker for sure. This is the only lawyer and it doesn’t stop at dui. I would hire him for ANY type of legal issue

You are in good hands

I faced a 3rd DUI in NJ. Even though they were spread out over nearly 20 years, laws meant to keep you in the system and draconian mandatory sentencing minimums in NJ had me facing some really harsh penalties, including 6 months in Camden County Jail. F That. So I retained John's services, who had re...presented me in previous matters and he pulled out all the stops and got that reduced to a reckless driving charge. He knows all the right people and you are in good hands with him. I am reclined on my couch typing this instead of going through Camden County Jail intake. There cannot be a more stark contrast of realities as an example of a successful defense. Retain John knowing you are making a wise choice.
