Thank you

When I called Michael Palumbo my registration was suspended, and EZ pass was telling me there was no nogotiations and I owed $24,000 and they wanted $667.00 per month with $2,000 down. When Michael finished, I owe $7,000 and payments are $186.00 per month. Thank you Michael Palumbo for everything ...

Ezpass & Tickets

Michael Palumbo I really appreciate the work you did for my case, he reduced my violation fee for ezpass for more than 20k, Traffic tickets always gets dismissed with him. You’re the best #1 Lawyer. Thank you for your hard work

Traffic case

When my teen age grandson received 2 traffic violations, I was very panic stricken. From his description of the events , I felt that a not guilty plea was in order. I am a senior citizen with a number of serious medical issues. I depend on my grandson to provide assistance with medical appointme...nts and shopping. He lives with me and has never been in trouble. His mother recommended that I contact Michael Palumbo. I was hesitant due to limited financial resources. However, his mother’s successful resolution of a case with this firm convinced me to contact the firm. This week the tickets were dismissed. I cannot say enough good things about my dealings with Michael Palumbo and his firm. Communication was outstanding. Updates and contacts were carried out instantaneously. Fees were clearly defined and were very fair. My fears about exorbitant fees were totally unfounded. This was a stressful event in our lives but thanks to the support I received it turned into a positive experience. I would highly recommend this law firm.

I was fully expecting this review. She hired us in a panic after her vehicle registration was suspended for failing to pay tolls for years and racking up $4,186.00 in unpaid tolls and $40,200.00 in violations. I negotiated the violations down to $8,040.00 and got her on a payment plan. After I wrapped up the case and sent her the closing information, including how to execute payment on the payment plan, she claimed "I already knew that..." Ergo, if you already negotiated the deal yourself, why did you hire me to do it? She then wanted her money back after I completed the work. She wants me cancelled, but it's clients like this that should be cancelled.

I am a lawyer, not a dishwasher. You did not pay me for the hour you claim it took me to work on your matter, but the 26 years it took me in training and experience to know what to do and how to advise you on issues of which you did not have a clue as to what to do. The content of the contract you signed was as follows: "You are retaining our office for the limited purpose of researching for you with the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles your present driving history, and consulting you on the entirety of your driving history and providing you with a resolution strategy to potentially obtain / renew driving privileges in NY State. This service includes our office obtaining from the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles your NYS driving abstract and / or lifetime driving history. Also provide us with a copy of your driver’s license and / or NYS ID Card or out of state license or ID Card. For this service you have agreed to pay a flat fee of $1,750.00. By signature below, I acknowledge that the work under this contract is complete upon the law firm providing me with a consultation as to what, if anything, I can to do sanitize my driving history which would lead to getting my NYS driver’s license or driving privilege restored, or otherwise having my NYS driver’s license or driving privilege suspension or revocation lifted. I specifically acknowledge and understand that I am not paying for a favorable consultation, but a consultation. In other words, I acknowledge that the news the law firm gives me may not be good news, and that there may be nothing I can do to re-obtain driving privileges, be it either economically infeasible to try or otherwise unachievable due to the nature of my driving history. This letter contains our entire agreement. There are no separate or side agreements or oral agreements. Any supplementation or alteration of this agreement must be in writing and signed by the parties." Our law firm fulfilled its obligation to you 100% under the contract. Your negative review is not a reflection of the work we did, but a reflection of your lack of character and attitude of entitlement. You should be ashamed of yourself. Oh wait, you are ashamed of yourself, as you posted anonymously.
