Prompt and efficient service

All paperwork done via either FedEx and/or scan and email. Took my case and got everything taken care of. Knowledgable about speeding tickets and best case scenario for my ticket. Took care of everything.

Legal Help

Mr. Magnell, handled my speeding tickets in New Paltz, NY and was wonderful to work with. His staff is knowledgeable and helpful in every way. Thank you

Professional, effective representation.

Glenn has helped me with with quite a few "fundraiser" tickets along the small villages up the 87 and each time was successful in getting tickets reduced to a non-moving violations or something that's quite low on the points scale. Glenn has also helped me with VTL 509 and 511 (AUO 3 and 2) cases whe...re driving privilege was suspended without my knowledge and was successful both times. I highly recommend Glenn and his staff. Glenn, Sally and Kate have all been very understanding, courteous and professional when handling my cases.

Excellent assistance received from Mr. Glenn Magnell

I am very thankful to Mr. Glenn Magnell for his assistance. Driving with my wife, son and granddaughter after attending the 4 July fireworks, I was stopped by a police officer at 12:30 am and given tickets for speeding and bypassing on the right. The latter was not true - do not understand how the... officer figured that out - one cannot bypass on the right on 17M, which is a single lane road in one direction unless the vehicle you are bypassing is moving on the left against traffic! I later checked, as I pass frequently on that road, even if I indeed violated the speed limit which is 55 there, it was very minimal. The officer did not appear to be equipped with a speed checking device. Anyway, I faced 6 points, a "responsibility fee" that NYS DMV imposes, and a possible increase in insurance payment. Mr Magnell provided me with advice and took over the case which he handled professionally and successfully. Thanks to him, the DA reduced my "violations" to a parking ticket of $75. Justice prevailed! I strongly recommend to seek Mr. Magnell's assistance. You are guaranteed fair representation, exclusive service and maximum results to your benefit. My thanks also go to Kate who assisted in communications and arrangements.

Representation for criminal misdemeanors after being arrested.

Mr. Glenn Magnell represented me after I had been arrested for two criminal misdemeanors; possession of a dangerous instrument and place another person in reasonable fear of physical injury. After being arrested I was very nervous, anxious and upset. Mr. Magnell explained my entire legal situati...on. To make a long story short, Mr. Magnell was able to get those two criminal misdemeanors dropped during the court proceedings. I had plead guilty to harassment in the 2nd degree, a non criminal offense. I was very much relieved not to have a criminal offense on my record. If in the future I should ever have a need for a very caring person, a wonderful and experienced lawyer for legal representation, I would without doubt contact Mr. Magnell immediately. Any and all questions I had were answered timely and in a professional manner by Mr. Magnell's staff. Both my wife and I are very pleased.

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.
