Ticket

Mr Shelton went above and beyond his initial consultation for us I will recommend him to everyone.

Beyond Satisfied

Couldn’t be more grateful that I chose such a great lawyer for my case, was doing well over twice the speed limit not only facing a fine and points as well as possible license suspension. Yet he managed to get me a bargain with the court for a non speeder with a drastically lower fine and only two po...ints. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would definitely use again, just hoping I don’t have to.

Excellent work, highly recommended

I was charged with speeding 87 mph in a 55 mph zone. The penalties for this ticket include 8 points on my NY driving record, a $693 fine, a $450 NY driver responsibility assessment, and a possible increase in my insurance premiums. Lee was able to get the ticket reduced to 10 mph over the limit o...r 65 mph in a 55 mph zone. This reduces the points from 8 points to 3 points. Unlike the originally charged ticket, it is not a violation that by itself can be used to raise my insurance premiums. This reduction also completely avoids the $450 driver responsibility assessment. It also reduces the fine.

If you have a ticket, you need Lee.

I have never received a speeding ticket in my 25+ years of driving until this summer when I received 2 within a span of a month. Both tickets were driving through small villages in New York for the first time, Buchanan and Blooming Grove. I was cited for going 40 mph in a 30 mph zone. Lee was able ...to reduce both tickets so there were no points or record on my license, for Blooming Grove there was a fine but for Buchanan, he managed to get the ticket dismissed! Lee is professional, prompt in all his correspondences and will do his best to get you the most favourable outcome. If you need help with a ticket, do not hesitate to contact Lee, in fact just hire him, I did and it was the best decision I made for these tickets!

Speeding ticket

Lee Shelton did an excellent job with my case. I've got a speeding ticket and a seat belt ticket with potentially 9 combined points. He was able to consider and present all my situation circumstances and got a reduction to a smaller fine and 2 non-speeding related points case. His conduct was a profe...ssional, the approach to the facts of the matter was thorough and unbiased. I would highly recommend him if you need a lawyer for the Westchester area.

Avvo Rating

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.
