Best Man for the Job

Mr. Jaffe is a very good lawyer who has great rapport with the legal players in Princeton, NJ--a great advantage to have in a case. My friends and I who attend the university made the mistake of having alcohol in our possession, and suffered dire consequences when undercover police caught us. I met w...ith Mr. Jaffe to see if I could get the charges reduced, and his confidence about the matter assured me that I would not only have reduced charges but the incident would also be stricken from my record. I recommended Mr. Jaffe to one of my friends, and we both found success when we went to trial. He is professional, albeit busy; If he doesn't answer you're phone call that doesn't mean he isn't devoting his utmost attention to your case. I highly recommend Mr. Jaffe.

Best Traffic Attorney in the Princeton / Plainsboro area

I had a number of tickets handed down to me at one time. 1) 30-35 mph over the speed limit 2) Reckless Driving 3) Improper Passing of lanes 4) Expired State Inspection The case was serious as it had the potential of landing 14 + points on my driving record. Plainsboro twshp, where the inci...dent took place, is known to be very strict under those circumstances. I was facing a possible suspension of my license. Being that I depend on a car everyday to get to work, it was essential that I handled the matter with the upmost priority. I needed to have a lawyer represent me, but was very cautious about who to trust. After reaching out to several lawyers, and hearing what they had to say, I fianlly decided to stay with Mark. He helped to diffuse my fears and assure me that he was going to represent me in the best way possible. He also seemed to be the most experienced with the Plainsboro township, as he works and lives in the area. I had my doubts in the beginning, being that never had to hire an attorney in the past. I thought he was going to be a typical lawyer that you see on TV or in the movies. But to the contrary, he maintained his patience and proved himself repeatedly until he earned my trust. He also offered me a very reasonable rate I could afford. Mark handled the case professionally, and the day of the court, he was able to work with the prosecutor to reduce the severity of the offences against me, to something fair and manageable. Mark proved everything he stated about his years of experience as a lawyer, specifically in Plainsboro. He is very familiar with the judge, the prosecutors, and the rest of the staff. This proved to be extremely helpful in his defense of my case. Without him, the case probably would have ended with a direct suspension of my driving privileges. Everything he said he could do, was done, and I walked out feeling I got my money's worth. I highly recommend Mark as a lawyer. He is extremely hard-working and loyal to his clients. Though his schedule is very busy and he often works late into the night, he still managed to personally respond to each and every one of my inquiries and questions, helping me understand the complexities of the case against me and the legal mechanisms involved. He was honest and forthcoming about all the issues regarding the case. I'd definitely work with him again and I'd advise anyone facing the same or similar issues as I have, to hire him as well. It will definitely save you a lot of headache.

An Exceptional and Effective Lawyer Whom I Referred to Over a Dozen Friends and Family Members

By chance, I met Mark about 15 years ago. Through our initial interaction, we quickly gained a mutual respect for each other. By way of background, at the time I was still working through the growing pains of young adulthood and a passion for high-powered sports cars (i.e. 12 points on my license... and two pending moving violations). As a friend, Mark offered to help me dig myself out of imminent suspension of my license and years of surcharges. Given that I had an extremely unsatisfactory experience with another local attorney in the past, I was reluctant at first but eventually decided to retain Mark as my attorney. Fast forward about five years, and Mark diligently defended an additional 7 or 8 moving violations (some quite serious) with incredible results. During this time period, Mark was able to reduce my outstanding points to the low single digits and maintain my NJ driving privileges. At times, Mark's handle of the law was simply unbelievable, even magical. With little exaggeration, the amazing outcomes of my cases attracted the attention of family and friends- over a dozen whom became clients of Mark as well. All that being said, I believe that Mark is an exceptional lawyer who is able to deliver outstanding case outcomes. Further, Mark is always reachable night and day, and always willing to help. If it were not for what I mentioned above, I would not have called Mark up again after all these years to help me clear three separate out-of-state violations stemming from a clerical error associated with a parking ticket. Mark Jaffe should be your ONLY option when you get a traffic ticket.

Down-to-earth/excellent

Mark H. Jaffe is a fine, caring gentleman & an excellent lawyer. I was especially impressed with his availability on weekends (to meet and go over my case, etc.). He carefully explained the charges and penalties and after all was said and done, I walked out of Court with no points. Excellent!

WONDERFUL LAWYER WHO TRULY CARES ABOUT HIS CLIENTS DURING AND AFTER HE WORKS WITH YOU

I used Mark Jaffe twice for traffic-related offenses-one was an accident that I was not at fault for and another was for a speeding ticket. Both times his vast knowledge of the NJ courts and his good relations with those who work in the court served me well and I was able to have a ticket dismissed a...s well as the other one changed to a non-point accumulating ticket. STRONGLY recommend Mark to anyone!
