Speeding, other tickets

I had a difficult situation with 2 tickets and likely suspension of license. Vik did an outsntanding job listening to my side of the story, conduct a professional discovery and represent me really well. He managed to arrange a very favorable plea settlement for me, and ensured that he closed out the ...case. His diligence, professionalism and client service is exceptional, I highly recommend him.

Difficult Driving violations

I was looking for a lawyer to represent me after I was charged with five different violations related to driving. I called Vikrant and received free consultation over the phone and then I hired him. The outcome of the result in the courtroom was not guilty, not guilty, not guilty. I would recommen...d Vikrant to anyone who feels that their case is too difficult to handle.

Excellent Job

I had 3 tickets, one for reckless driving, speeding (doing 100 in 50mph zone) and failure to maintain in lane. All those tickets totaled 12 points and possible 30day suspension. Mr. Advani was able to get the tickets down to only Speeding violation with 4points and no suspension. Great job and highl...y recommend.

Top Notch Lawyer

First let me start by stating that Vikrant is extremely professional and knowledgeable of the law. He took care of tickets that I had in two different jurisdictions and got me very favorable outcomes. These were not your typical cases, the level of complexity was very challenging. My tickets were no...t as straight forward as your usual traffic citations. From the first conversation with him he provided very thorough information on how I should proceed. There was a warrant out for my arrest and if I did not follow his detailed instructions, I could have gotten arrested the next time law enforcement pulled me over. He is very easy to talk to and is very familiar with the NJ judicial system. I highly recommend him and feel confident that he will be able to achieve positive results for your case.

EXCELLENT!

We live in Los Angeles, our son had some difficulties with local officers in New Brunswick; being so far away, it was a very difficult for us, not know what to do, etc. Vik was not only successful in defending our boy, but he was accessible, warm, nice, comforting, knowledgable, and reliable. We are ...SO grateful for his hard work on our behalf. We give him the highest of all recommendations: We trusted our son to his judgement and skills. What more can we say? Thank you Vik! GREAT JOB!!!!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
