California resident with moving violation New York

Lee Shelton, Shelton Law Firm, represented me concerning a moving violation in Harrison Town, NY. I am a California resident and felt it was prudent to be represented by a local lawyer. I could not have chosen a more professional, knowledgeable and down to earth lawyer to represent me. During this... process Mr. Shelton kept me informed with current updates. He appeared in court today on my behalf and successfully got one of the two tickets dismissed and the other violation downgraded to a parking ticket resulting in no blemish on my driving record. Excellent job! Thank you.

Turned a speeding ticket into a parking ticket.

Answered all my questions quickly, kept my driving record clean, and I didn't have to drive to NY to go to court myself. Turned a speeding ticket into a parking ticket, no insurance increase or points. You really can't ask for anything else.

Honest, Ethical, and Realistic Lawyer

I have never used Avvo before let alone had the need to hire a lawyer, but I was in a jam and felt I had no choice. I received two tickets a Moved from Lane Unsafely & speeding over 55. I am a college student with not a lot of money and to make matters worse I attend school out of state. I kept putti...ng off my court date asking for extensions, Finally the court denied it and told me that they would suspend my license. I frantically looked online and after doing some research I found Mr. Lee Shelton, I called him and spoke over the phone with him. I was very frantic and very emotional as I did not want my license suspended. He was very calm and level headed, listened to everything I said and then was able to respond with all of the right answers. He reassured me that he would do everything he could to assist me, but he was realistic about it as well so I appreciated him not giving me false hope. His fee was very reasonable as with those two tickets I was facing possible penalties for these tickets of 9 points on my New York driving record, $636 in fines, a $525 driver responsibility assessment fee. which is a big chunk of change for a college student, so I hired him and he went to court for me, he called moments after he left court and informed me that he was able to have both tickets turned into parking violations and those tickets have NO POINTS, and will not appear on my driving record and will not affect my insurance premiums. I am very grateful for his calm level-headed approach and his honesty. If you want an honest, ethical, and realistic lawyer he is the man for you. I would gladly recommend him to any friend or family member that need an amazing Lawyer in New York!

Great traffic lawyer

Mr. Shelton helped reduce my 4pt violation down to a parking ticket at reasonable compensation. He provided consistent communication when necessary and kept me in the loop. I'm very happy with the outcome and would recommend him.

Great Job

Mr. Shelton is a fantastic attorney. My friend has a very bad driving record and he got two traffic violation tickets. These two violations will let him face to a huge fine and even a license suspension. Because my friend doesn't speak English, I helped him find Mr. Shelton and Mr. Shelton gave us ...a very good service. Mr. Shelton is patient and knowledgeable attorney. His response is very quick and the consultation is very detail. Through Mr. Shelton's effort, my friend got 1 ticket dismissed and 1 speeding ticket reduced which there is no points. I would highly recommend Mr. Shelton to my friends. I thank you very much for the professional skills you given to this matter.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
