Mark H. Jaffe---An exceptionally fine defense lawyer

Mark H. Jaffe, Attorney at Law---An exceptionally fine defense attorney On behalf of my wife and myself I would like to express our gratitude and admiration for Mark Jaffe. My wife, distracted by reports of Hurricane Sandy bearing down on us and in view of Governor Christie’s declaration that d...ay of a state of emergency in our state inadvertently violated an unpublicized and virtually unknown traffic law. She was given multiple citations and treated by the policeman in what we considered a disrespectful and totally inappropriate way. Having no experience with the court system and at a loss as to what to do we retained Mark Jaffe. With very little notice and the hearing scheduled for the very next day he met with us, comforted us greatly, explained our situation clearly to us in terms we could understand and outlined his strategy for our defense. At the hearing the next day this matter, which could have gotten a lot more serious, was resolved with only a very small penalty for us---an accomplishment that would have certainly been impossible were we to represent ourselves. Looking back on our highly productive association with Mark Jaffe we can say with no reservations that he is a very fine defense lawyer with a great depth of experience on both prosecution and defense sides of the law, solid connections with relevant law enforcement personnel and an understanding of how to empower potential defendants to feel not intimidated but proud of their rights as Americans. We wholeheartedly endorse Mark Jaffe. Anyone who would like to discuss this further is welcome to call me at (609) 951-0574 or e mail mhshaub@aol.com. Marvin H.

Knowledgeable, accessible, caring, and effective

To whomsoever it may concern! I thought I'd take a moment and express my sincere thanks and appreciation to Mr. Mark H. Jaffe, Esq., Attorney at Law, for handling my speeding case so well and successfully. Although I'm sure such cases must be routine for him, he cared enough to take the time and ...make the effort to clearly explain the law as it applied to my particular situation. His experience and knowledge of the system was highly reassuring. Also, his 24/7 availability to answer any questions or concerns, be it by e-mail or on phone, was a huge bonus. And, finally, my sincere thanks to him for educating me on ways I could be a much better and safer driver - he didn't have to but he did! I would have absolutely no hesitation in referring him and his services to family and friends.

Extraordinary attorney, top-notch intellect with a big heart

My wife's car was totaled; she was deeply shaken by the accident and needed not just a highly competent attorney, but a caring, sensitive human being. Mr. Jaffee was all this and more. He negotiated the best possible outcome with the district attorney and took not just good but excellent care of m...y wife's fragile spirit. If you are looking for a brilliant attorney, who gets the job done with 110% commitment to his client's well-being, both legal and spiritual, you will not find a better man with a better heart and mind than Mark Jaffe. He's also a delightful storyteller and a mensch--what better recommendation could there be?

Close to miraculous

Initially, you may be surprised by the number of emails and calls that you receive from Mark Jaffe. Then you’ll realize that he seriously cares about your case. You may be unprepared for his passionate delivery. Then you’ll understand that he genuinely wants to stand up for your rights. In... a world where it is so rare to get a person answering their phone that one can mistake a real voice for a recording, and where people are jaded about lawyers and much else, it is something close to miraculous that Mark Jaffe exists: He is a little like a country lawyer in an elite college town. He answers his calls almost every single time (and calls you back quickly if he doesn’t), letting you know that everything is going to be okay and that he is going to help you. When I was disarmed by innocent traffic violations that were put into serious overdrive with charges and tickets, I was upset and worried. Jaffe went into action immediately. I stopped worrying. I could see that Jaffe puts his sharp intelligence to use in the service of people, explaining his plan every step of the way and giving the bigger picture, without any hint of an air of routine and certainly none of the condescension common with lawyers. It felt really good to have him standing next to me in court--standing up with me for my best interests. He knew exactly how to handle the case. His good relationships with those at the court showed in how smoothly they worked with him. And he put himself into it every minute. The outcome of my case was far better than it might have been and I paid far fewer fees than I might have, which for me was both a salvation and a stand for justice. Like me, you’ll probably be very pleased with the outcome and may even find yourself having more hope about lawyers, courtrooms, and what is fair. You may never tell a lawyer’s joke again. And you may find you miss the emails and phone calls after everything has been settled.

Great Knowledgeable

Mr. Jaffe is a great lawyer. He is knowledgable and very responsive. Answers all your questions. I got in a very large accident which was my fault and he managed to reduce my ticket to a no points violation. I have used 3 lawyers in the last year and I think by far he is the best of the 3.
