Best of the best

Mr. Ziff is a lifeline for many everyday people who had a misfortune of receiving a traffic violation summons. Being an attorney myself I do not believe in "miracles" or "magical remedies" that resolve various legal issues. However, Mr. Ziff is a rare breed of an attorney who can make impossible ha...ppen. This is true because Mr. Ziff is a bottomless well of legal knowledge stemming from many years of legal practice. Aside from his expertise, his office and his staff are unmatched by any other. His assistants and paralegals are compassionate, knowledgeable, reliable and competent. Which is of course not a surprise since Mr. Ziff himself very professional and organized. I have used services of Mr. Ziff in the past and was never disappointed. I literally know that I can sleep soundly knowing that Mr. Ziff is handling my case. Highly recommended!!!

Great traffic attorney!

I have been issued a cell phone ticket in Brooklyn borough and was very upset since it carries 5 points now. I am truck driver and having 5 points on my driver's license could cost me my job, so I decided to hire an attorney to handle my case. My brother advised me Mr. Ziff since he already had great... experience and several dismissed traffic tickets with him. Mr. Ziff readily took my case and promised to put all his efforts and knowledge to beat the violation. He was honest and real about how things could go and what outcomes can be. The hearing was scheduled in a month and the ticket was dismissed on that day. That was amazingly quick! That traffic lawyer really knows his staff and does his job in a proper and effective manner! Just to mention, his rates are highly affordable and you always can ask for discount, he is not going to rip you off. So, I am very satisfied and extremely appreciated Mr. Ziff for such a fantastic, professional job! I highly recommend Mr. Ziff as a traffic attorney. By the way, his office conveniently located straight at DMV for many years and you don't have to worry that you've paid to someone who will never attend the hearing. Thank you again Mr. Ziff!

Unprofessional

They might be good at regular small violations but they very bad at the criminal and others tickets and they still take your case and rub you. Case that I had at the end cost me zero, Jeffrey offer was 3500$ besides that my case got dismissed for free at the same time for 3500$ Jeffrey was suggesting... me to plea guilty and get 3 points and 2 days of community service! So be careful guys, and they asked me 500 ahead for just to change the date on court room! They completely were trying to rub Me!

TERRIBLE

TERRIBLE excuse for a lawyer and law office. In my life, I've only gotten 1 ticket (this one). I'm an A+ student and never been in trouble, besides this 1 ticket. He never asked me for my side of the story & never presented it to the judge (like I've heard he does for other cases). He pushed my case ...off for 5+ years, just to have me found guilty, my license suspended, over $1000 in DMV fees (not counting his fees), and my insurance skyrocketed. HE AND HIS OFFICE DID NOT EVEN TELL ME MY LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED! I FOUND OUT BY ACCIDENT WHEN I WENT TO GO PAY MY TICKET FEE! THEY DID NOT EXPLAIN ASSESSMENT FEES, THE POINTS SYSTEM, A POTENTIAL APPEAL, OR PENALTIES. THEY SIMPLY SENT AN EMAIL, AND WHEN I CALLED WITH QUESTIONS, TOLD ME TO LOOK THEM ON THE INTERNET. Now, I'm way more screwed then if I were to have pled guilty to begin with in 2012. I bet if I didn't pay him up front for my case in 2012, he would have had more incentive to beat it in 2017.

Arrogant attorney and unprofessional staff

I was highly recommended to hire Mr Ziff to help me with traffic tickets. I called the office and spoke with staff and received forms I had to sign. One of the forms required me to sign that I authorize Mr Ziff to plead guilty and I called back and spoke with staff who kept me waiting and kept transf...erring me from one rude girl to another and than I was told that that's a general form everyone signs but it is of course doesn't apply to my case. When I questioned the need to sign it they said that maybe I have to hire different attorney. I explained that if form doesn't apply to me that there isn't a need to sign it. They transferred me to talk to one of the attorneys and he explained to me that that's general form which everyone signs and doesn't apply to me and we finished the conversation nicely. When I called right after that to ask one of the staff girls if they received credit card authorization to start the process they transferred me to attorney again who said " you had enough double checking" and " I won't take your case and dismissed me before even starting. I find it very unprofessional .
