FIRST CLASS

Jamie took care of cell phone ticket for me that had been hanging over my head for over a year and a half. I already had points on my license so 5 more would have made my insurance coverage astronomical. Jamie saved the day. Got everything dismissed! He is a first class attorney!

Saved me from a 5 point ticket!

I was referred to Mr. Birch by a friend who had previously hired him and had a great experience. Mr. Birch was professional and very knowledgeable. He told me his plan of action of how he would handle my case. He gave me instructions about what I had to do, which I followed. He was easy to reach ...and always available to answer my questions. Mr. Birch took my case to trial and I was found not guilty! I could not have had a better experience. I highly recommend him!

This man is a genius and will save your butt!

When I hired Jamie Birch to handle my case at the DMV court in Staten Island, I was almost certain I was going to lose my driving privilege. Without discussing the ugly details, let's just say it was a bad situation. Everyone I spoke to before meeting Mr. Birch - including 2 other attorneys - told ...me I was facing a stiff suspension. Upon meeting Mr. Birch in court, I was immediately aware that I had made the right choice of attorneys. Watching him was like watching a brilliant craftsman working his craft, controlling the scene, fully in touch with every aspect of my case, working hard for me and obtaining RESULTS! Needless to say, Jamie Birch saved my license, and I owe him an enormous debt of gratitude. To everyone out there in trouble: you MUST hire this man! He's a genius. Thank you Jamie Birch!

Excellent Attorney

James Birch is an EXCELLENT attorney. My wife who also happens to be an attorney recommended Jamie to help me with my speeding ticket in Staten Island. The ticket was for 70 mph in a 35 mph construction zone. I tried to explain to the officer that I was NOT traveling at that speed but he refused to... discuss it. Facing a large fine, points on my clean licence and a possible suspension I was more than worried. Jamie, reassured me and took over. Nearly 2 years from when the ticket was issued, Jamie had the fine reduced, and no suspended licence. I use my car for sales call and that was my biggest worry. Without being able to drive, I would not be able to do my job. Like I stated earlier...he is an Excellent attorney and a great guy. Call him to discuss your situation and see for yourself. Thanks again Jamie... John

  • 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.
