Professionalism at its best.

Professional in every sense of the word. Fully explained the legal process involved in fighting an illegal traffic stop. Gave me the best case and worst-case scenario without embellishment. Prepared me for all court appearances, showed up on time and did exactly what he promised to do. Makes no excus...es and delivers what he promises.

A job well done

Harvey has been representing me and my family for years for bogus traffic tickets and unnecessary violation in the Bronx area. He has done us and this community a great service. Thank you Harvey for always protecting us from the quotas.

2 Speeding tickets Dismissed

From the moment I encountered and spoke to Mr. Rivera I knew I was in good hands. He delivered as promised. Slam dunk win. As I read these comments above, I say to myself there is a lot of bitterness and malice in people’s hearts. He NEVER and I (emphasize) NEVER guarantees a winning outcome. He is a... lawyer who represents his clients to the BEST of his ability. Given the circumstances surrounding the traffic infraction. It’s 50/50 all around the board. People need to understand that just because you don’t get the results you desire doesn’t mean you have the right to bash someone. Thank you Mr.Harvey for all your effort and dedication in all you do. I am driving responsibly and if I ever come across any trouble regarding any NYS VTL, I will surely reach out to you again without hesitation. Thanks Again. All the Best, Mario G Santana
