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.

Good Guy. Cares about his clients and their needs

Mr. Jaffe spent a great deal of time making certain that he prepared the best defense for me and also kept me informed on an ongoing basis of strategies and current events. He accomplished for me what I hired him to do, which was reasonable and fair given all circumstances. He cares about his clients....

Best lawyer around

Mr. Jaffe was extremely helpful when I used his services for a traffic violation case. With a rare combination of empathy and expertise, he explained my options to me and ensured that the best outcome for me. He was reliable, kind and confident when dealing with me. I would recommend Mr. Jaffe's se...rvices to anyone requiring excellent representation.

Very helpful and trustworthy lawyer! I am very satisfied with his work.

I am a foreign student in Princeton University. I got two tickets last week, one for failure to yield to pedestrians, the other one for unlicensed driving. I hired Mr. Jaffe to represent me at the municipal court. When I discussed my case with Mr. Jaffe, he was very patient. He explained very clearl...y to me how he could help me and what I should expect during the court session. He told me he might be able to reduce my tickets to less-severe traffic violations. And he did what he said! I only faced a few hundred dollars of fine, but I got no points, no insurance surcharge, and no license suspension. And Mr. Jaffe did all this for a very reasonable price. I really appreciate what Mr. Jaffe did for me and recommend him to anyone who need a trustworthy lawyer!
