5 point cell phone ticket
Mr Palumbo is an extraordinary attorney, when I sent him any emails he responds back promptly. This is the third time I’ve hired him and I am extremely satisfied. He is the epitome of what a great attorney is supposed to be like.Thank you so much Mr Palumbo

Excellent 2x - hires 3rd time
Driving any reasonable volume around the NYC / NJ area over a multi year period is a sure fire way to rack up some alleged infractions. From ridiculous allegations of driving past a stale yellow that turns to red as you cross the intersection to driving at speeds to avoid being run over by the flow o...

Worth every penny!!!
Mr. Palumbo charges more than other lawyers, but for good reason! You get what you pay for! He got a New York City ticket for use of handheld electronic device dismissed. I thought this would be impossible to defeat, but he did it! When I get a ticket - I just give it to him and take his advice 1...

Speeding ticket
I received a speeding ticket, along with other violation ticket, saw the great reviews in this website, and decided that I didn't want to risk going to court by myself, and hired the lawfirm. Maybe I was not as lucky as everyone else. I actually did a walk-in, and spoke to the gentleman in the fron...
I have no clue as to whom this person is and I would encourage them to call me so that I can get more details and, if I do, will amend my responses herein. The criticism is so disjointed that I am going to have to do the best I can to interpret the complaint comments to give an adequate response. First off, it is an impossibility for us to "make up documents" without talking to and consulting with the client. We cannot create a file without input from the client. We need their name, address, phone number, e-mail address, as well as the details on what they were charged with doing (i.e., "speeding...fail to signal...reckless driving, etc.0). So we had to have interacted with the person. What I believe his main complaint is that he did not understand one the documents that he was signing, which is the authorization to appear and plea. This is the document a client must sign and have notarized if they do not want to personally come to court with us. It has certain language in it required by the state. The language must give us the ability to plead our client guilty to SOMETHING. The language reads as follows: "I hereby authorize Palumbo & Associates, PC to appear in my stead on my behalf and enter a plea to a reduced offense." In other words, we resolve most cases by plea bargain, in that we negotiate with the prosecutor to plea our clients guilty to a REDUCED OFFENSE. For example, our client is charged with a 6 POINT SPEEDING we plead them guilty to a 0 POINT WINDOW TINT. A plea bargain avoids the risk of being found guilty and having a large fine and insurance increase by paying a small fine on a violation that does not trigger insurance increases. In his review, the reviewer on the one hand claims that he felt he was being compelled to pleading guilty as charged, yet on the other adequately describes that we explained to him the plea bargaining process. He then said that the lawyer he spoke to "did not even bother to help me understand why if I was paying over $500 I was pleading guilty." To retain us only takes signing two one page documents. We explain these documents all day, every day, to dozens of people whom are normally on the phone. To claim that we did not answer all of his questions and explain the documents to him while he was in our office strains credulity beyond its breaking point. From the comment it is hard to tell if this person is a current client. If he or she is I encourage them to call us we are happy to re-explain the paperwork and the process. Moreover, while I appreciate everyone's business I do not need a client who is suspicious of our commitment to them. In addition, a client can relieve a law firm at any time. So I would encourage this person that, if they are not satisfied with our representation to contact us and discharge our firm as their counsel. Our law firm is dedicated to serving the public in traffic ticket and auto crime defense. We have over 350 positive online reviews. If you have a ticket or a question about a case, I encourage you to see for yourself the service you will get when you retain our office. We go ANYWHERE in NY, VT & CT to defend an auto crime or moving violation case. You can call us anytime at your convenience our phone is always staffed 24 / 7. Our number is 914-777-2990, and we'd love to talk to you. So call today!

Palumbo and Associates Save the Day!
Driving from New Jersey to Connecticut to visit a terminally ill friend , I got a speeding ticket in New York. I had already lost money taking time off work and paying for gas and tolls to drive through 3 states to see my friend just one last time before he passed. That was expensive enough, but we...
