Outstanding Legal Service by Tom Carroll Blauvelt

He provided full legal representation for 2 cases (i.e., simple assault & restraining order) including a 4-hour trial for one of them. He was extremely competent throughout the whole process over a 3-week period. One case ended up in a complete dismissal (in my favor) and the other one, I was able ...to do a reciprocal RO against the other party due to Tom's expert advice and legal representation. He was awesome and very professional in every step of the way and was also always reachable via both phone and email. I would highly recommend him to anybody else who may need legal representation.

Retained service of Mr. Blauvelt for a domestic violence allegation that ultimately went to trial.

The Attorney for the Job!

I first contacted Attorney Blauvelt in a panic because I had just had an awful experience and my home, career, license and all-around livelihood were all on the line. I am an out-of-state resident and I was charged in NJ, not only with DWI, Refusal and Reckless Driving charges but I was also charged ...with Eluding Police, a felony offense. What made matters worse is that, as time went on, the prosecution upgraded my charge from a third degree felony to a second degree felony which carried a possible 5-10 year sentence. I had never been criminally charged with anything before and things were not looking good. I called around to a few other law offices and I was told on more than one occasion that it was highly likely that I would be facing SOME sort of jail time and their goal was to keep jail time at a minimum. I did not accept that as an answer. I contacted Mr. Blauvelt, who never made any promises but was always upfront in his dealings with me. He made suggestions for strategies I needed to do in order to improve the chances for my case and I took his advice each time. My application for PTI was turned down the first time but he fought to have the prosecution reconsider. After 16 months and several status court dates, I finally was able to get my charges resolved. I was allowed in the PTI program for the felony eluding charge. The most serious driving charge (DWI) was dismissed as well as the reckless driving charge. I made a well-informed decision to plead guilty to just the refusal, which carried no jail time and no criminal record. I had a lot to lose and I am so glad I decided to go with Mr. Blauvelt. He was always responsive if I needed to just sort things out and ask questions regarding my case. Lastly, his fees are extremely reasonable for the service he provides in comparison to other firms. He's not some big firm with dozens of lawyers shuffling your file around. It's just him. He knows the ins and outs of his clients' cases and he works for as long as is required to get the desired outcome. Highly, highly recommended.

Tom Blauvelt is a professional, knowledgeable, and passionate lawyer

I came to Thomas Blauvelt visibly upset and depressed about my DWI charge. From the moment I stepped into his office and consulted with him, his experience and candid assessment of my case made me feel at ease, and I always felt like I was in good hands. He was always available for feedback and he cl...early explained exactly where he was taking the case step by step. Through his knowledge and experience,he outlined a legal strategy that ultimately led to the outright dismissal of my DWI charge. I HIGHLY recommend the services of Thomas Carroll Blauvelt.
