Shoplifting dropped to non criminal.

To make a VERY long story short, I hired a well known Ocean Country defense law firm who's modo was that the whole firm was behind me. Again they were supposedly the best in Ocean County. They're website looked like they could represent OJ Simpson, it was so professional even a bit intimidating, at... the time I new I needed the best so I hired them. The attorney who was assigned to me, wanted me to plead guilty to a petty shoplifting charge on the very first appearance and this was also my first criminal offense. That law firm charged me a large fee so there was no way I was simply pleading guilty, otherwise what did I even hire them for? I fired that lawyer on spot in front of the judge, and the court granted me another month to find a new lawyer. Thankfully I found Steve who helped me get this charge dropped to a non-criminal ordinance which was what I needed to continue as a nursing student. When I initially called Steve I was in panic, he told me to relax and we would figure this out and that's exactly what he did. I would recommend Steve to anyone seeking legal representation. I will be calling Steve again soon to help me with a record expungement. PS. Steves fee is fair and he will help you with arrangements if needed.

Effective

Stephen set out to get my case dismissed which was achieved without any issues. I contact three attorneys prior and his pricing was fair and not inflated like the others. Overall would highly recommend.

The legend Himself Mr. STEVE MCGUCKIN

Steve has been awesome! I got pulled over for a DUI in November and I explained him my situation about school and he was able to work with me and the court to get my date pushed so I can finish school, even doe I was suppose to get 7 months loss of license but Steve definitely have some tricks up his... sleeves and managed to get me a 3 months suspension without an interlock device which was great outcome and every student could wish for. I highly recommend him, if you don't you missing out and he is very very very reasonable. Guys give him a shot or you will regret for the rest of your life why you did not hire Steve McGuckin.

Great lawyer

From day 1 Steve was very helpful in coming up with a plan to resolve my case. He was available outside of office hours which was very convenient for me and answered any questions that I had. Steve's prices are reasonable and I would highly recommend him.

Jersey Law

Steven was first a gentlemen. Kept in contact every step of the way made my situation not seem so helpless. I got Stop in Jersey while my friend was driving officer said he smelled marijuana ask me the passenger to get out the car and he searched the car he found papers but no weed. But the officer i...nsisted he found weed. I was arrested on scene near Atlantic City. Steven fought for a lab test on what was taken out of my car the lab never sent a thing in because there was nothing to test. If it wasn't for Steven I would be in a drug program large fines and a suspended liscense. Steven was worth every penny a public defender would not have helped me this way. Eternally grateful.
