For the past six years, Steven Stites has personally handled perhaps the busiest caseload of any New York traffic attorney.
Steve cares about his clients, and they appreciate that he is responsive and understanding. On a daily basis, he meets with dozens of clients and fights hundreds of traffic tickets. His clients are rewarded with results that are second to none in the world of New York traffic law, and service to match. He founded Stites Law LLP in early 2018 after working full-time as a traffic court attorney since 2014.
Before entering traffic law, Steve worked in politics and government. He served as a senior aide to a New York City Council Member and a New York State Senator, and advised numerous campaigns and organizations on political strategy, communications, and government affairs. In 2012, Steve was named one of City Hall’s “Forty Under Forty” Rising Stars of New York politics.
Steve’s legal interests include consumer protection matters. He co-wrote an article, “Merchant-Authorized Consumer Cash Substitutes,” which was published in the Fall 2019 issue of the Virginia Law & Business Review.
When he isn’t running one of New York’s largest traffic law firms, Steve is a man of many hats. Steve is an “Elite” level racquetball player, currently ranked #20 in the state of Connecticut. He has finished two novels and dabbles in poetry, palindromes, and comedy writing. He enjoys French food, Scotch, and brewing his own coffee.
Steve spends an embarrassing amount of time fretting over his dynasty fantasy baseball teams. He is an amateur crossword enthusiast, but will dominate you at Scrabble (2100 rating).

Always on time, and work hard for us!
In particular, Mr. Steven L. Stites, Esq. was remarkably professional and attentive to the matter he addressed on my behalf. His follow-up was impeccable and he kept me clearly informed right up to the desired outcome. If anyone has the need for legal services, I'd highly recommend him and his firm.
Much obliged, Alex!

Don’t waste your money here
Not sure where these positive reviews come from but this firm is just out to take your money. Hired them to fight a cellphone ticket and got nothing for it. The office staff that takes your calls sends a clear enough message in their unenthusiastic way of speaking to you. Was never contacted by a rea...
Delmas hired my office for a cell phone ticket in the Brooklyn South court. His ticket was two years old and bonded — in other words, it would be difficult to reschedule. Two weeks later, my office defended him in court, and he was found guilty. While I wish we could win every single TVB case, the simple fact is, no one can. I am proud of the excellent results our firm achieves for clients on a daily basis. But in the TVB, there are no plea bargains. Every case goes to trial and ends in either a “guilty” or a “not guilty.” We do not make guarantees, and a conviction is always a possibility. I’m fortunate to have a sizable client base. Many clients hire my office without speaking to me personally. If a client asks to speak to me, I will make every effort to contact them. I regret if Delmas felt ignored by my office. I spoke to him on the phone after he left this review, and he acknowledged that he did not make this request. Had he done so, I am sure we would have spoken. My office does not, as a regular matter, inquire as to the details of what happens in each traffic stop because, quite frankly, that is usually a waste of time for both my staff and my clients. TVB hearings are fought and won on other issues. I appreciate that Delmas hired my office for this case, and I assure anyone who reads this that our reviews are 100% legitimate and that we do everything we can on behalf of our clients.
