Great Lawyer, Great Result

I received a speeding ticket for 35 over in an area that tends to prosecute harshly. I didn't think much could be done but I decided to get some legal help. After speaking with Lee a few times I noticed how responsive and quick he works. He was very informative and educated me on possible results as ...it stands and what he could do for me. At some point the court actually confused me for someone else and attempted to suspend my license. I contacted Lee one evening and he contacted me immediately. By the next morning it was taken care of and I was also provided with documentation of the court's mistake. He kept in touch along the way notifying me of any movement with the case and its date. Lee also went to the court on my behalf, which is great. In the end, the ticket was lowered to only 10 over and I was able to avoid any insurance increases or DMV assessment fees. I highly recommend Lee Shelton and thank him for making a stressful situation virtually painless.

Saved me!

Lee was a pleasure to work with. He was clear and concise and spelled everything out. In the end he was able to reduce my speeding ticket drastically and saved me hundreds of dollars, many points, and who knows how much in insurance premium increases. I would reccomend Lee to anyone seeking help with... their traffic violations.

Thanks for the painless process!

I received two speeding tickets and one right of way violation in a short period of time and wanted to avoid points on my license so I reached out to the Shelton Law Firm, very glad I did! Lee was extremely courteous, communicative and promptly replied to all communication. Lee was able to get my rig...ht of way violation reduced to a broken taillight, no points, my insurance rates are not affected and I paid a much cheaper fine. Still waiting on the court to set a date for the speeding ticket but Lee has made this a painless process. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Experience!

I got my first speeding ticket on my way home from school one weekend. I had Mr. Shelton on the phone within an hour of getting back. He gave me a quick rundown of what to expect in terms of procedure and possible outcomes. Hiring him was an easy decision from there, as was filling out the necessary ...(and little) paperwork. He answered promptly whenever I had questions, and kept me well informed throughout the process. He went to the court date on my behalf and got my speeding ticket brought down to a parking ticket and the fine significantly reduced. Overall, my interactions with Mr. Shelton were easy and painless. He was highly professional, and I would absolutely recommend him for any similar cases!

Exceeded my wildest expectations!

I received my first ever ticket and as CT driver that was ticketed in NY, I knew I needed someone to help me out. I am so glad that I reached out to Shelton Law. Not only did Lee Shelton personally handle the case but he also went out of his way to explain all the charges, possible fines, and solutio...ns to me in a very clear and easy to understand manner. He also was great with communication and was very quick to respond to any calls or emails. That, along with the flat rate and no hidden fee policy made him extremely easy to work with. In the end, my possible 6 point ticket and over $600 worth of fees and fines was reduced to a 0 point, $160 fine/fee. Because of Mr. Shelton's hard work, I will not have to pay higher insurance rates, nor do I owe the state of New York DMV over $300 in fees. Plus, he even got the ticket changed so it will not even appear on my driving record. This was beyond my best expectations and I am so glad that I did not try to do that on my own. I cannot state it enough, I am thrilled with the outcome of this whole situation. Tickets are so stressful so being able to trust someone else that knows the system is so worth it. I highly recommend Mr. Shelton!
