As anyone can see this person did not even retain us. Which calls into question the credibility and veracity of the complaint. Nonetheless, I want to thank this commenter for his review, as there is a singular truth to it which helps provide a tutorial of the services we provide and what is relevant and what must be discussed on an initial phone consultation. The truth is that one of the things we discuss is money. The reason for this is simple. While we are a law firm the reality of what we provide is an economic service. So whether it is in your interest to retain us turns on whether the value of the services are greater to you than the downside of simply mailing the ticket in with a guilty plea. So there has to be a comparative analysis of the economic impact of the fines and surcharges, insurance increases, as well as the potential for many people who drive for a living in loss of license or job prospects. Only when the value of what we provide is greater to you than the investment you must make to get the benefits of the services is it worth it to retain us. This is a decision only you can make, and you can only make it after discussing what your concerns are and the economic impact of pleading guilty as charged. Now for the lies. The first one being "...he wants the money with no work..." Our law firm does EVERYTHING for our clients and makes it exceedingly convenient for them. Our clients NEVER have to go to court or come to our office. We litigate the case from start to finish. The second lie is that I gave inaccurate information to him about the fines and surcharges. I talk to many people every day so it is impossible to know exactly who this one is. However, judging from the amount we quoted for services in this case and what he or she states I said was the fine, I know that the person was charged with an excessive 6 or 8 point speeding. The fine and surcharges on such a charge can easily be $693.00 or $1,143.00. The "$350.00" claimed that I stated is inaccurate. I likely told this person that the DMV assessment alone would be $450.00, NOT the $350.00 in fines he or she claims that I misquoted. From the nature of the comment it is apparent to me that this person called us not in good faith to get information about their case, the problems a finding of guilty can cause, and what we can bring to the table for them, but rather to pick my brain for information on how to do it themselves. When the person realized that I was not going to allow an intellectual larceny of my inventory this angered and frustrated him or her to the point where they tried to undermine my online credibility. Not only did it not work, it backfired. Just look at the hundreds of positive reviews I received from actual paying clients. Just look at my web site and review our money back guarantee - the first law firm in the State of New York to make such a guarantee, and to my knowledge still the only ones that give such a guarantee. If you have a speeding ticket, moving violation, or have been charged with an automobile crime, I invite you to check our or AVVO profile, our web sites, and our hundreds of positive reviews from actual clients, not just this tire kicker. Then, pick up the phone and call us toll free at 1-877-99-No-Tix for a no cost, no obligation phone consultation. This way, you can judge for yourself whether what we have to offer is right for you!
