Great "first lawyer" experience!

First lawyer experience, and Tom was awesome! He was professional and overall a genuine, nice guy. He made sure I understood what I was doing and didn't pressure me into any decisions. He turned what would have been four points on my license to zero points, and the fine wasn't too bad either. I wante...d to hug him for erasing all my points! I think his fee is fair and reasonable as well. In addition, his assistant, Ms. Rosado, was truly a pleasure to work with. I would definitely hire him again if I found myself in trouble again (but let's hope not).

The Best Lawyer I've Ever Worked With. Beat 2 DWI Charges.

I was prosecuted for 5 Traffic Violations including a DWI and a DWI Within a School Zone. The penalty for the DWI would have been 1 - 2 years suspended license. Although I was under the BAC limit at 0.07, needless to say, I was extremely worried. I met with Tom and during our first visit, he alre...ady had a map printed out proving that I was NOT within a school zone. He also came up with a winning strategy to get a deal worked out with the prosecution and I was able to beat ALL the DWI charges. Tom was extremely professional and honestly had my best interest at heart. He also kept me aware of the approaching court dates and what specific documents I should provide. Tom also sent me a course to take to reduce the number of points on my license due to the other Traffic Violations. There's a reason Tom has a reputation for being one of the (if not the) best DWI/DUI lawyer in NJ and he proved it to me. I will definitely seek counsel from Tom for all my legal disputes going forward and I will definitely refer him to others that are in similar predicaments. Needless to say it was a pleasure working with him and I was extremely satisfied with the results.

Great Traffic Lawyer

I had six different traffic charges, faced losing my license up to 4 yrs. and even had a slim possibility of jail time. Additionally, I was supposed to receive over 10 points on my drivers license. Tom worked a deal; got me 4 points, no loss of license and $650.00 in fines. I couldn't have asked ...for anything more. Additionally, Tom is a really personable guy and his rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend him.

Good Outcome in a Bad Situation

I was facing 7 to 12 months suspension, interlock device, and multiple other problems. Tom was very careful and went through my case with a fine toothed comb. He found some inconsistencies with the police records and got the breath test thrown out, speeding ticket thrown out, and reckless driving d...own to careless driving. I walked away with the minimum 3 month suspension thanks to Tom. He even drove me home in pouring rain the night I had to surrender my license.

Incredible/DWI Dismissed!

I was facing a charge of DWI after driving home from New York City through New Jersey to Pennsylvania. I looked online and found Mr. Blauvelt. To state it simply: choosing Mr. Blauvelt was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. First of all he is an extremely friendly man and I fel...t that I could trust him with my life. In terms of his professionalism, Mr. Blauvelt exceeds all expectations. You don't have to go through the trouble of dealing with an attorney that is hard to reach, because Mr. Blauvelt makes himself accessible to you at all times. After examining all of the evidence, Mr. Blauvelt seemed sure that my case would be dismissed, and sure enough it was! The greatest outcome possible! If you are seeking an attorney for a DWI, or any legal issue for that matter; I highly suggest, no, BEG you to give Mr. Blauvelt a call, because he will do everything in his power to fight for you in your case. This was my first experience in dealing with a legal offense and I will always give Mr. Blauvelt a call should I or any of my friends or family experience a legal issue in the future.
