    I had a DWI ticket that needed resolving at Spring Valley Court and Matis took care of everything. He managed to get my case dismissed! Matis is very professional and his services are unique and I would recommend to anyone.

    Excellent job

    Posted by

    Matis helped be beat a ticket I received in Manhattan for turning left from a middle lane (rather than the left lane). The charge was false. Matis took care of everything by mail - I did not need to show up to court. He kept me posted and got the job done. Thank you.

    Experience and outcome

    Posted by

    Matisyahu Wolfberg was recommended to my daughter and I by a police officer. I received 2 ticket violations from Suffern PD, one for Failure to Turn and another one for Child not in seatbelt both ticket would have resolved in a total of 5 points on my license, but both tickets were reduced to Parking violations and No Points. I am pleased and thankful for his work and highly recommend him to anyone. He also made it very easy for us to communicate with him and would answer our questions without a problem.

    I was caught going 80 in 55 zone. I was facing 6 points and hundreds of dollars of fines. One email to Matis lowered it to a parking ticket plus a fine. Thank you Matis!

    When a family member came to me asking for a referral to an attorney to handle an upstate ticket another attorney gave me Mr. Wolfbergs name. Since then. I have been confident that every client I have referred to him was handled professionally and with excellent results.
