He is Excellent!!

Vik, is an excellent lawyer who will show you the right direction and I found him at the right time, I was just going to accept the ticket and avoid the hassle of going to the court but Vik broke it down in such a way that I was ready to go and fight it out. He ensured, I did not get points on my li...cense. I would recommend him!

Improper Turn Traffic Ticket

Great experience with V. Advani. I received a no left turn (improper turn) ticket in NJ that carried 3 points. He got the ticket brought down to an blocking traffic charge/ticket, which is a minor offense with no points. The ticket was only $89 as well. I highly recommend lawyer Advani.

Posted by Thomas | May 24, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

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.

THE BEST!

Mr. Advani is very professional. He helped me get my license back and it’s been uphill. I would recommend that you retain his services! He’s very understanding and affordable. He will work with you. He’s really looking out for you! It’s not just about the money.

Best lawyer and easiest process!

I obtained a speeding ticket on the NJ turnpike 20 over the limit. I was really worried and called a ton of lawyers and the only one that i felt was kind and listened to my problem and fear of points was Vik. He didn’t demand money right away or just tell me what he’ll do and hang up. He was down to ...earth and took me through the process with ease. I didn’t even have to show up to court and in the end got it down to a way lower speed and no points! Really happy i used him! Will definitely use again in needed god forbid and refer to friends if ever in the same situation!
