Cell ticket

I was very skeptical about hiring a lawyer that I have never met but I read his reviews online and he seemed to know what he was doing - Now I am glad that I hired Michael Palumbo as he did what he said, he got my ticket down to zero points on my clean driving record versus having five points... I wo...uld definitely refer him to anyone in need as he is worth the money!!

Amazing

When I first contacted Michael he said he would handle everything. I was facing a hefty fine and points. He said I wouldnt have to appear in court, nothing. He was a man of his word. He did a fantastic job. He is professional, courteous, and most importantly on point! He took care of verything ...and kept me in the loop as we went. Thanks Michael!

excellent attorney!. His knowledge & expertise made all the difference between a license suspension and simply paying a fine

Michael Palumbo – is an excellent attorney. His knowledge & expertise made all the difference between having a license suspension and simply paying a fine. He is courteous, truthful and reliable. Most important he came through exactly as promised. His services were well worth the cost and absolutely ...convenient. Not having to appear personally in court was huge relief.

Speeding 15 mph over limit

Mr. Palumbo answered or returned all phone calls made about the case. He was successful in dismissing the charges brought against me with one simple fee. He was upfront with the fee and the explained how he would handle the speeding charge. Mr. Palumbo kept me informed, but mostly through e-mail ...or U.S. mail. As a truck driver, I cannot check my email or my mailbox regularly. All in all, I am extremely satisfied with the services rendered and well worth the money paid. As a truck driver, any violation hurts my ratings, so the ticket being dismissed helps tremendously. I would definitely recommend his service for anybody.

Prompt. Knowledgeable. Dependable.

I was driving my wife and daughter home one night and was pulled over for speeding while passing through New York state. The officer was in a bad mood and issued me a multi-point ticket. This was my first speeding ticket and I soon discovered that NY's traffic laws are more complex than my own st...ate. I spoke with a couple of traffic attorneys on the phone the following day. When I called Michael's firm I actually spoke with Michael and not one of his staff. By the end of that conversation I was convinced that he could help me. Michael also offered a money back guarantee which was important because as a single paycheck family money was already really tight . I was hoping for a quick resolution but that did not happen. The city where my ticket was issued has a history of generating revenue through the nearby highway and therefore the court had a backlog of cases. A year and a half later Michael was able to reduce my ticket to a "failure to obey a traffic control device" which (barring dismissal) was the next best outcome. The wait was the one aspect of this experience that was really tough - more so since I was out-of-state. At the beginning I would email Michael for status updates (probably too often) and always received a prompt reply. Those weekly emails turned into monthly emails as it became apparent that the case was stuck at the court level. If you're considering Michael than my advice is to put your trust in him completely and let him do his thing. He understands the courts and knows what he is doing. I would absolutely recommend him. Drive safely everyone!
