Posted by Barb | August 05, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

She’s the one!!!! I can’t say enough ...

I met Ms. Katz 2 years ago at the courthouse downtown where I thought I would represent myself for a traffic offense which could have turned out to be a disaster for me. After speaking with her, I was certain she would get the job done. I live out of state and coming into NY was not easy. Ms. Katz wa...s helpful beyond belief... She has a way of explaining the law to you in a way in which I actually could understand. We layed out a plan and yes, you get her on the phone, she is articulate, professional and truly cares. My outcome was amazing and I am certain I couldn't do it without her guidance. I can't say enough .

Attorney Katz will give you a fighting chance!

Attorney Katz listened and was very empathetic to my case. She offered me proper guidance and feedback regarding the process. Attorney Katz gave me a fighting chance for what I felt was an unjustified ticket and I’m thankful for her involvement because I’m certain without her, I would have lost my ca...se. It takes years of experience and understanding of the court, which attorney Katz has, to win a case. Attorney Katz was very reasonable with her fees and was worth every penny! If you want a fighting chance hire Attorney Katz!

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.
