An Advocate For You

Sometimes in life we need an advocate; someone who is willing to seek out our best interests, who will represent us when we are ourselves are no longer qualified to do so. Coming before a Judge in the Municipal Court of North Brunswick Township, proved to be such a time for me. Granted, lawyers are b...y profession required to do this, and as such are also duly compensated. One might conclude therefore, that legal representation via an attorney is more about business than personal friendship, more concerned with the bottom line rather than the individual, and I am sure that this is true for many in the profession. However, just as there are medical doctors who have entered into practice primarily for prestige and money, there are also those who were inspired by a different muse -the desire to heal and benefit others. Similarly, I learned through this experience that there are attorneys whose main joy in their legal work is the ability to help out others in need. Mr. Jaffe is a man who enjoys being an advocate for people primarily because he values them. He understands the law, and he understands the needs of the client, but what stands out in his effort, is that he values the relationship of the client more. In this regard, he views the client as a personal friend, and is able to identify with and sympathize with the client’s predicament. As such, he is able to represent the client’s needs as his own when he is before the Court, the Prosecutor and the Judge. More than this, he continues to include the individual in his life even after the legal matters have been resolved. I found Mr. Jaffe’s knowledge with regard to legal Traffic Court matters to be excellent, both in regards to the law and in regards to the staff of the Court. His insight into both, especially the Court’s personnel proved most effective in my final outcome.

Law & Order at its finest!

Mark was an excellent lawyer! He did a great job helping me out. I was going double the legal speed limit and he was able to help me get off with a clean slate! He is a very available person and makes an effort to get to know his client. I went in for a pre-trial conference with him a few days before... the trial date and he gave me his time and really helped me understand what was going to happen and he guaranteed that he would be able to help me out. He also has a great staff and everyone in the office, from Mark to all of his staff members are good-humored and fun to talk to. He works late hours and makes himself available to his clients, he's there when they need him. I would strongly recommend Mark to anyone for any problems! I can testify to the fact that he can definitely help you out! Mark is my lawyer for life and if anything goes wrong I know who to call up to help me out!

CAME THRU BIG TIME!!! STRONGLY RECOMMEND

I AM DRIVING FOR 17 YEARS AND GOT STOPPED NUMEROUS TIMES FOR SPEEDING. I GOT MY FAIR SHARE OF SPEEDING TICKETS OVER THE YEARS, AND I DEALT WITH A LOT OF LAWYERS ALREADY WITH NOT TOO MUCH SUCCESS. SO WHEN I GOT MARK JAFFE'S LETTER IN THE MAIL WITH THE WORDS I CAN HELP YOU!! I THOUGHT TO MYSELF HERE W...E GO AGAIN WITH THESE LAWYERS. BUT I HAD NOTHING TO LOSE AS HE HAD VERY REASONABLE RATES AND WAS WILLING TO WORK WITH PAYMENT OPTIONS SO I GAVE HIM A TRY. TODAY I HAD MY COURT CASE AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY DRIVING HISTORY (ABOUT 15 SPEEDING TICKETS) MY VIOLATION WAS DROPPED TO A NON MOVING NO POINTS VIOLATION WITH ONLY A $58 FINE MARK DID A GREAT JOB RESEARCHING MY SPECIFIC CASE (THE OFFICER HAD GIVEN ME A CARELESS DRIVING AND WROTE IN THE REMARKS 85 IN A 65 ZONE) AND CONVINCING THE PROSECUTOR TO DROP THAT CHARGE. MARK WAS ALWAYS AVAILABLE WHENEVER I TRIED REACHING HIM AT ALL HOURS. DAY AND NIGHT. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE HIM AGAIN SHOULD THE NEED COME UP, WHICH I SUSPECT IT WILL

Excellent at what he does

I was recently involved in a motor vehicle accident with multiple violations.Mark did an excellant job of explaining the process of prosecution and judgement and accurately predicted the outcome. He had a calming effect throughout the process. He was extremely knowledgeable of all the motor vehicle l...aws, infractrions and consequences.He was the right man for the job. Dont go to traffic court without him.

I swear this is the case they make true life movies over...shock and awe first hand...real talk

Let me start by saying when i first was handed mr Jaffe's card by one of my friends i didn't know what to think. I was so distraught over my case i didn't know what to do. I had just gotten a new job from my old one which was me working 12 hours a day 7 days a week with no days off for 7 months strai...ght...no daysssss offf. making peanuts.highschool graduate no college i was almost screwed in the working world. this new job saved me i was able to get my own place and start my life officialy keeping in my mind im 26. the clock is ticking. i finally was about to get furntiture for the house and everything was about to be good for the first time in years.i was broke beyond relief and i was just gettin my money right when i got the hardest hit of my life a dwi. it wouldnt be that big a deal but my new job depended on my being able to drive. so now i was risking no job with a brand new lease which was going to lead to ultimate eviction and no place to live. my closest relatives that could help me are in california i live in nj.my life was going to be over completly over. but i took this card and called the number on it. i gave it a shot what the heck i was screwed anyway. when i first met mr jaffe the first thing he said was you can relax im going to fight for you. now like i said i was broke the retainer fee was however managable. most lawyers charge about 3 thousand dollars for something like this mr jaffe gave me the oppurtunity to pay it off in a payment plan that fit my needs and my wallet. remember i was broke. he was upfront about everything from the beginning. he told me about what i was facing and how hard it would be but he never stopped saying that he would fight for me it made me feel good. i went through arraignments and pretrials scared as can be but mr jaffe was there for me. he is a busy man he holds down his office with himself and his wingman mr marshawn with tons of cases on his back but he always found time for me. whether it was 8 in the morning or 12 at night he was there. although the courts were so unhelpful and so bias the whole entire time mr jaffe stood by my side. they even tried to screw me literally they had me come to court for a pretrial conference and turned it into a trial right on the spot even though they had made the mistake when it was to be nothing more but a final pre trial conference. the judge basically said f u we are going to take your license and were going to do it by making u try the case today with no preperation. if u dont take the crappy plea bargain right now we are unfairly going to destroy you. Well with no preperaswoontion no time to call witnesses no nothing back against the wall mr jaffe stood out like a shining sun and said you know what if you want to go to trial lets do it. he called thier bluff and we went in like lone rangers into the belly of the beast . what the courts didnt know is that mr jaffe is like kobe bryant in the fourth quarter. he attacked every element of the states case against me and obliterated it without the help of the expert witness that jaffe had as a trick up his sleeve. he did it all himself with no time to prepare. it was all freestyled off the top of his brain with such perfection and magnificence my jaw is still on the floor wondering how i still have my license. he is a black mamba in disguise. the black mamba is the deadliest snake on the face of the planet. one bite can kill 150 people. and i saw that in the courtroom. he ate up the prosecuter and the judge and the testifying cop. and he did it all with a smile. i have never witnessed anything like it in my life not even in the movies.its like seeing the hulk and superman all in one in real life. i was facing 24 months loss of license and thousands of dollars in fines . im telling you if you want to win your case and still have some money in your pocket put your trust in mr Jaffe. no longer is it that the truth shall set you free. keep it real justice isnt blind the only one that is going to set you free is Mark Jaffe Esquire attorney at law. I use to think that he was david vs goli
