Posted by Bhushan | February 28, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

He is the best lawyer for traffic tickets , hire him and he will take care of the rest.

My wife received careless driving ticket,we were worried what to do next. Fortunately one of my friend recommended me Mr Vikrant Advani. I have reached out to him over cell phone and dropped a voice message, he called me back within 5 mins. I explained him my case background and ticket details, Mr Vi...krant patiently explained me the all the possibilities that can happen in my case and how he can represent my case. He offered me the flat rate and assured me he will represent our case if multiple hearings are required with no extra charge (Many law firms reached out to me but Mr Vikrant provided me the best consultation). We have hired Mr Vikrant our lawyer and he rescheduled our court case and helped us to reduce my wife's traffic points, overall court hearing and matter took 10-15 mins. We both were happy with the court hearing and result. I will highly recommend Mr Vikrant Advani for traffic tickets based on my experience, trust me you will be in safe hands if you give your case to him. Thanks Again Mr Vikrant for your help in our case.

Moving vehicle violation

I found Mr. Advani online. I contacted him via text. He was extremely responsive – Mr. Advani called me within the hour and described in detail what I needed to do to manage my moving vehicle violation. Mr. Advani resolved my violation in court in a manner that did not result in any harm to my drivi...ng record. The resolution that he advanced was immediately accepted by the courts and the matter was resolved in 15 minutes. Mr. Advani was kind, responsive, fair and honest. I could not have asked for a better experience. Although I did not know Mr. Advani prior to contacting him on-line, I felt like I was dealing with a friend who had my back the whole time – that was invaluable to me.

Highly Recommend!!

Mr. Advani was wonderful in every aspect and he went above and beyond to make sure that I felt at ease and to defend me in court case. I was anxious about my case when I first called him and he told me not to worry and he would be able to help me. I made arrangements for payment and he had emailed th...e court right away to get a future date because I got the notices less than a week before original court date. I never met such an outstanding Lawyer that actually cared for my case and was on top of everything. The date of my final court I walked in and he had already told me this is a good outcome and I immediately felt relief as this case was pending for a few months. Then shortly after we consulted they heard my case and I was super pleased. He was very responsive when I had to reach him and he was with me every step of the way until I paid my fines at the window. Highly recommend to hire Mr. Advani because he will not let you down. Thank you so much I got no points and lowest court fines. Thanks again I will definitely be recommending him to anyone who needs. He actually cares and it shows.

Best lawyer ever

I was traveling back from NY to NC after a funeral and was going 22 over (87 in a 65)on the nj turnpike by a state trooper. Mr. Vikrant Advani was the first lawyer I called and last. Right from the start he was super helpful and knew plenty about the courthouse and judges. He got my ticket reduced to... a 69 IN A 65!! I couldn’t believe it. Not only was he super understanding & non judgmental, but he took care of it quickly & kept in touch regularly. If you’re in need of a lawyer after messing up bad, definitely trust in this lawyer! You won’t be disappointed

Excellent experienced traffic ticket lawyer

Being a recent import from Texas, I was not used to the plethora of NJ state police on the highways. I racked up two sets of speeding tickets in a short span of two months. Not being aware of the point/ surcharge system in NJ I initially pled guilty to the first set of tickets and paid the fine wit...hout consulting a lawyer. I contacted Mr Advani after my second set of tickets.... I was angry, fuming while recounting my side of the story since I felt the cop was just being mean. He calmed me down and after going over the details he advised me to reopen my first case for potentially lesser points and fight the second ticket. He was able to negotiate successfully with the prosecutors in both courts ( Linden and Watchung) to lessen the number of points on my DL in the first case even after I had officially plead guilty and get me off with a small fine and no points in the second case. He advised me through the whole process, was readily available by phone, text and email for any questions, paperwork , documents etc. Actually the communication part was one of the best things as he was always available directly, and I didn’t have to go through a front desk or other intermediary when I needed advise. For someone not used to the American court system, he helped me navigate through the process and his professionalism alleviated all my anxiety and worry, and let me concentrate on my work/ professional life. He appears to be well known in the traffic court circles, personally knows a lot of the prosecutors in the central jersey courts, and has a lot of experience for years in this field. I highly recommend him based on my direct experience with him, and my good experience is only one of many many positive reviews you will find about him online.
