Hired for speeding ticket, great result!

I reached out to Mr Shelton for a speeding ticket of 20mph over the limit. Ever since I connected with him, he has been professional in handling my case, and providing the necessary details, and the making sure I understand the impact, and the way it will be handled if I hired him to represent. He wo...rked for a very favorable outcome, with a no point littering violation. I would definitely recommend Mr. Shelton, he is very professional and informative.

Speeding ticket

I was caught on the radar driving 100 mph at 65 mph zone. The penalties for this ticket include 8 points on your NY driving record, a $693 fine, a $450 driver responsibility assessment, and a possible increase in your insurance premiums. The Judge is especially hard on speeding tickets that are 31 mp...h or more over the limit. However, Mr. Shelton was able to get the ticket reduced to 5 mph over the limit or 70 mph in a 65 mph zone, resulting in point reduction from 8 points to 3 points! Also, my total fine has been reduced to only $293. Needless to say, I am beyond grateful for Mr. Shelton's help, expertise and knowledge. The whole experience from getting the ticket to resolving the matter, Mr. Shelton's service was seamless. He made a difficult and very stressful situation feel easy. I rely on my car every day for commute to work from out of state. So, this ticket could have had a catastrophic effect. I am writing this review so that others like me is able to find Mr. Shelton and get their issue resolved.

Excellent Representation

I hired Mr. Shelton to support me with multiple traffic violations that could have resulted in license suspension. He was professional, precise, knowledgeable and timely with his services. He ultimately was able to reduce the sentence by the judge leading to 0 points on license and no implications to... my insurance. I am grateful for the representation and for his service and will be recommending him to family and friends. Thank you again Mr. Shelton!

Best attorney I've ever contacted!

Lee Shelton is the best! I contacted him after my speeding ticket which I had been stopped by a state trooper. He took the time to speak to me for almost an hour about the incident and explain to me the best possible outcomes. He works after hours and is easy to communicate with. He and his law offic...e are very prompt with answers and timely. He finally got the verdict and I was looking at almost a $1,300.00 fine and 8 points on my license with potential to suspend. He got it reduced to a non-speeding violation and only 2 points so that I can keep my license. Thank you so much!! Once again, you are the best!!!
