2 Traffic Tickets Case

Here are the facts: Issue - I received two traffic violations in Plainsboro Twp in my way to work. Between them I was looking at 10 points, over a thousand dollars in fines, potential (almost certain) license suspension, NJM insurance loss and subsequent insurance premium increases. Outcome - 2... points (which I can remove with the safe driving course), $360 fine, my license in my wallet and keep my NJM insurance. Success Factors - Mark was very clear about the situation, Mark was reliable and dependable, Mark's networking with this court is outstanding, Mark's strategy during court day was spot on, Mark delivered exactly what he promised. I'm happy with Mark's performance and professional support during this case and I will recommend him to anyone in the same situation I was. One last note. Don't be misguided by Mark's unconventional style, he is different from other lawyers. iPad mini's, Ferragamo glasses, tailored suits and alligator shoes don't win cases... dedication, experience and networking does.

Excellent lawyer, VERY satisfied!

I am writing this testimonial about Mark H. Jaffe our lawyer- to say a BIG thank you! My husband passed a car improperly during a snow storm we recently had in Plainsboro, NJ and was given tickets totaling 9 points on his DL. After searching on the internet for the best lawyer- I called Mark and dis...cussed the case on the phone. He helped us by carefully explaining not only how he could achieve the results we hoped for but also reviewed how we could drive safely and avoid problems. As foreigners and also recently moving from CA to NJ, we had no experience driving in the snow and now we are forced to and it is challenging. After our first phone call with Mark - we decided to hire Mark to represent my husband and we know for a fact that he is an excellent lawyer who has taught us a lot about how to drive safely! This has been an important lesson for us - for our safety as well as others so that our future life will be better! Since both my husband and I have a busy working schedule Mark agreed and was very nice to handle our calls and to meet with us twice before the Court when it was convenient for us. Mark is amazing and he must work about 18 hours a day since whenever we called - there he was - at his office or ready on his cell phone to take our calls. He is very patient and a very warm and caring person. When the actual court date came up - we observed that Mark knows a lot of people at the Court- the Prosecutor Judge and clerks etc. Everyone seems like him very much. The case was handled very smoothly. The outcome was we went from 9 pts to zero points. We are SO happy about the result and 100% Satisfactory about his service to us. We truly appreciate Mark's efforts and would highly recommend him to our friends and co - workers since he is an excellent lawyer!

Three time client, now social friend.

Mark's a great attorney. He's handled two traffic matters and one small damage claim over the past five years for me. All turned out exactly how he'd predicted. I was quite pleased. Since then we've had drinks a few times. His knowledge of the law goes far beyond his practice specialties and I've cal...led him for help with another attorney because of that. In municipal court, what makes the difference in a good lawyer and a great one is how well the court knows the attorney and trusts their recommendation. Courts trust Mark's guidance on his own cases. He knows how to operate in court.

Not Just an Attorney.....A friend

I first hired Mark back in May when I was arrested and charged with shoplifting. I was just going to take the PTI they were offering me and be done with it, but then I got an advertisement in the mail from Mark. It really stuck out because it had REAL signature. Not just a printout that the entir...e state gets anytime someone gets a ticket and such. From the beginning Mark has been tremendous! He is in constant contact with me, either phone, email, or text. He really is available 24/7 like he says! I have need been in trouble with the law and upon meeting him I had an automatic sigh of relief knowing things were going to be ok with him! My case was dropped from Criminal Court to Municipal Court without me even stepping foot in a court room! This proves the brilliance of this man and the respect that he has from the judicial system. This man is going to save my life! Not only is my attorney, he's my friend. He really does care!

NARK JAFFE IS AN EXCELLENT AND INTELLIGENT LAWYER

Mark Jaffe currently represents me in serious Municipal Court matter.I would say that that it is unlikely that you ever find another attorney as good as  Mark  is since he is an intelligent and compassionate lawyer - who goes above and beyond to help me understand my case etc. . After being hit with ...one of the biggest regrets of my life I had spent weeks being stressed out and was constantly worrying about how I could more forward from that moment. I did not know what to do. But from the moment I met Mark - this feeling all but disappeared- in seconds as he made me feel confident in him and his team.  He never made it seem like he was just an impersonal attorney that is only going to represent me in Court but he made it clear that he was here as a great friend who is also  my lawyer - who will have  my back no matter what. Real dedication and obvious empathy to my plight.When going through a rough phase such as the one I am experiencing now- having someone  there to keep you constantly informed and to check up on your  and make sure that I am kept up to date ( with experts) on my defense etc is crucial. That is what Mark does BEST and this guy is at his office every evening and even on weekends ! Simply Amazing ---how he does it and I have seen him so far in court and he is terrific and loyal to his clients. This I have been personal witness to ( as other clients were with me at court  last night  and we spoke) Since Mark started working on my case there hasn't been a  weekend where he has not reached out to me via phone and email /letter to make sure I was comfortable with things and to make sure I was fine with everything..( I have lots of emails to prove it). In addition he is very accessible  and you can actually connect with him very easily through email the office in Princeton  and even his cell phones( he gave me both #s)! This man has over 25 years of experience as a trial lawyer and has represented thousands of people and I just feel I had to post this review to say I am one of the many believers in  his good work. I am just lucky to have met him. Overall the true unique quality that you will find in Mark- that  makes him the best lawyer you could ever wish for - is that he can think outside of the box. He is tenacious and bright. I am very happy with him and I strongly recommend him to all of my friends as a great lawyer. I don't go to court often - thank goodness- but when I ever do I will make sure it is with Mark Jaffe
