Case Dismissed

Mr. Medows did a great job handling my case. I got two speeding tickets in one month, already had points on my license already. I was sure that my license would be suspended. I found Mr. Medows by chance on an internet search. I called the number and spoke to him directly. He took my case at an affo...rdable rate. After a few postponements, Mr. Medows got my case dismissed entirely. No points, no fine. I never had to appear in court myself and Mr. Medows kept me updated on the case. I would definitely recommend him to anyone dealing with a traffic viloation.

Disappointed

When you hire a traffic lawyer, what is the outcome you want: dismissal or not guilty, right? James simply failed to produce this outcome. No amount of fancy talk or mitigating circumstances will change the fact that he charged me a lot of money and failed to get my ticket dismissed. To be f...air I will acknowledge that he got it reduced from to 6 to 4 points; but a 4 point ticket is still a big problem. All these glowing reviews seem to suggest a dismissal is likely - not in my case.

I have already responded to the same review on Google and Yelp. I saved this person two points with the DMV, hundreds of dollars with the DMV and thousands with his insurance company. I always tell my clients and put in writing that THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES and that I will do my best. I did my best and saved this person's license from potential suspension as well. Prior to 10/8, Marc's reviews on Yelp were almost all negative and only after I called this guy out online did he start writing nice things about other businesses. Please look past Marc's negativity and look at my other 150+ AVVO reviews, 150+ Google reviews and 60+ Yelp reviews.

Overpriced

I wish he would've been honest and upfront with me to just pay the ticket or to go to a different lawyer. I let him know that I was not in a good financial position and he still charged over $500. All he did was postpone trial twice, which I could have done myself or which any lawyer could do. At the... end of the trial I was found guilty and have to pay the dmv another $650. If I am ever in this situation again or had to make a recommendation I would suggest to go for a cheaper lawyer, one can be found for about $200-$250 or less. This was my first time in a situation like this I was young and naive and was led to believe that his bigger price tag would lead to a better outcome.

I have responded to this reviewer via Google already. I stated that I always do my best but unfortunately, NYC does not negotiate. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose...my goal is to win because you tell your friends and family (I make more money since you think nicely of me) and I avoid negative reviews..like this one. Please look at all my reviews (over 100+ on AVVO alone) and not just this individual who admits I delayed his ticket twice (also returned his calls, emails and texts immediately). I will do my best for you and hope to achieve a positive result so you tell your friends and family.

Extremely Communicative and Delivered Results

Mr. Medows took my case about a year ago and was very professional throughout the process. The case went well over six months which had me a little concerned, but Mr. Medows always responded within a reasonable time to my inquiries and each time he went to court I got a summary of how things went. ...In the end, he was able to get the ticket dismissed. I highly recommend his service to anyone needing help with a traffic violation.
