Magician

If you are looking for best traffic lawyer in NYC, LOOK NO FURTHER. You have found it. I was issued two violations for the same occurrence in Brooklyn, I would get 5 points if found guilty. Although I thought I was innocent I did not dare to go to court myself because 1. it's almost impossible to... win in NYC traffic courts, 2. when it's your word against cop's word who do you think judge gonna side with. I heard countless stories about the traffic lawyers from my friends and almost all of them lost. Those few who won were lucky because cop didn't show up for court hearing and judge dismissed the case. I found referral for James Medows online and that's one of the reasons I'm writing this as someone may read and get help. That person said that he tried countless lawyers in NYC and could recommend Mr. Medows only. I sent him message through his site, immediately he called me back. He's fast talker, straight to the point, zero BS, values your and his time. He said he'll try to beat the tickets but there's no guarantee. He said how much it's gonna cost and I paid online. Although he was more pricey than regular traffic lawyers he is WORTH every cent, and MUCH, MUCH more. And I paid one fee only because both tickets were issued by the same cop. Mr. Medows postponed the case once, called me few days before the court hearing to discuss the strategy and on next date he beat both tickets. He DID it!!! I would have spent thousands in fines and increased insurance premiums and talk about the headache dealing with consequences. And I didn't have to appear in the court which saved me money too. When you go out to dine you wanna food cooked by someone who knows what he is doing, same thing about any other service. Now let me tell you one thing – this is the lawyer that knows what he is doing. Simply the best.

BEST LAWYER OUT THERE!!

No one does it like James Medows! When my husband got a serious speeding ticket that almost could’ve gotten his license suspended, James did the impossible and got rid of the ticket! I still can’t believe he succeeded and he’s saved us thousands of dollars from fees in a license suspension and in ins...urance fees that would’ve gone up exponentially. If you’re considering “saving” the money and fighting it yourself, just remember this story and recognize that it is a worthwhile investment and will ultimately save you money in the long run!

NEVER make an illegal turn in NYC

I have recommended Mr. Meadows to all of my friends and am now recommending him to all of Avvo. Several years ago, I received two traffic tickets in NYC. After reading his reviews, I contacted Mr. Meadows and he immediately responded. He explained, as I was aware, that NYC will not negotiate traffic ...tickets, but agreed to attempt to have them dismissed. He appeared on my behalf for several court dates and had them postponed. He kept me informed on the status of each court date. On the final date a few months ago, one of the tickets with 2 points was dismissed and I was fined approximately $150 for the other with 0 points. The fine and Mr. Meadows’ reasonable fee, of which he refunded approximately $50, were an absolute bargain! Without Mr. Meadows help dismissing the one ticket, I would have paid thousands more over the next few years for the second fine, government surcharges and insurance premiums. If you are as desperate as I was, call him! If anyone can have your ticket dismissed, he can. (And NEVER make an illegal turn in NYC.)

Highly recommended

I highly recommend James Medow's services. I chose his office because out of all the other firms I called, he personally called me to discuss my case (traffic ticket). He told me how it works in the court system and the chances that I have in court. He didn't sugar coat anything and didn't try to sel...l me up, just gave me the facts and let me decide. He kept me updated via succinct emails. I believe he is worth every penny regardless of the outcome (even though he succeeded in dismissing my ticket). He will do his best for you using his knowledge of the system and experience.

STAY AWAY

Hired this attorney and paid his $500 fee (which is double what other attorneys charge) because I thought that since he charges more he must get better results. NOPE! The result was I was guilty of a 6 point speeding ticket and paid over $500 in fines and insurance went up. He is a great salesman on ...the phone and real quick to say he is the best and to leave a good review after just speaking to him but my results with him speak for themselves. Customer beware.

This is a fake review!!! I do not know who this person is or how I lost his case. I can only promise that I will do my best. This review should be removed as there is no information to defend myself and I do not know who the source is. Please look at all my AVVO reviews and not just this one.
