The GOAT

So, don’t even know where to start nor end. I was introduced to Anthony Sharnov and his team by a friend back in 2014, when I moved to Manhattan. Professionalism: Where is it these days? Most of us have experienced companies changing policies without transparency right? I call this the “Trickle Up... Effect” that affects both the consumer, but what most execs don’t realize, their customer care teams, who leave due to unwarranted bashing by customers who don’t understand that it is the Execs and C-Level who change policies from customer-facing, consumer-friendly to what I call “Customer-Effacing”. Yes I do understand the definition of effacing. Why do I bring this up? Yesterday, I received a call from one of Mr. Sharnov’s Attorneys, the lovely Anne Pizzo. I think she was setting me up for a joke lol. Cause she hesitated, shared my case, then gave me the news that a potential 8 pt. ticket, she was able to overturn in my favor! I’m not condoning what I did. I had just moved to NY, and also got a ticket in Brooklyn, for taking a right turn on a red light. Did anyone tell me about this law? No. Are there signs like they have in other states. No. My point is, did I speed? Yes. Was it wrong? Yes. Do I hear the responsibility? Yes. Were there signs and speed limits? No. So why hire a lawyer for a speeding ticket right? You are probably thinking the same as I did when I hired my first speeding ticket lawyer in Seattle. He too got me off on a technicality. It’s going to double my cost?!! Well, since my experience working with the lawyer in Seattle twice and Anthony several times, I have yet to have received a ticket, nor points on my record. Of course, everything catches up, but the difference between a great lawyer and one that is mediocre, in my mind, is one who sets expectations up front, doesn’t guarantee nor overpromise, is responsive (most layers are too busy to respond, but Anthony and Anne will text me as they are heading into court!), and Transparent. This is what you get when you work with Team Sharnov. Transparency is what is missing in today’s culture and specifically corporate culture. But what is happening. The SEC now has consumer protection laws of the aforementioned. But Anne, Anthony and staff “Gets it”. They “Got it”, the first time I spoke to Anthony. He and Anne are nothing short of transparent. Period. If you can’t find a friend nor a lawyer who is transparent, DO NOT move forward with them. If you work with Anthony Sharnov’s team, YOU WILL get full transparency, whether the news is good or bad. I was told that my case would be very tough to win, due to the speed I was traveling. I took responsibility, but my expectations were set properly. And I give all credit to Anne Pizzo, who won my case yesterday! Thank you Anne for actually taking the time to call me, not simply text me, cause this allowed for inter-personal connectivity, something missing due to smartphones et al. It’s like being part of a family once you have an interpersonal connection with someone. This is how Team Sharnov operates, and why they will always be my “Go-To” for all law needs. Cause the best know the best. People like Anne and Anthony have Integrity, so my guess is if I need a lawyer in a different expertise, they will know the best who have integrity. End of the day. Why would I want to spend my time going to court to represent myself. Time is money, and I DO NOT KNOW THE LAW!! Your choice. But this case is closed.. Thanks Team Sharnov and Anne Pizzo!

Major Disappointment...Beware of him!!

He doesn't follow your case carefully. When you called him to follow up your case. He didn't listen to your concern regarding your case. Good Luck if you hired him.. No guarantee plus waste of time and $$$. plus He lied to you to make you believe in him.

Dear Anonymous, when we take a case we explain everything from the beginning to the end. We make sure you know exactly what the procedure is and how we operate. These cases take years to finish sometimes and when you hire us we listen to all your concerns even if irrelevant to the case. We take notes and attach the notes to your file so that when it is time for the hearing it is fresh in my mind. Of course there is no guarantee as to the outcome of the case and we tell you that before we ever even take your case. These are real trials and we cannot guarantee any outcome but we do explain all possible outcomes. As you can see by all the other reviews we do what we say and we usually get excellent results.

Ticket

My experience with this lawyer was negative. They promise win my case very easy, but they didn't. Finally I paid for lawyer and summons. There was no points for this violation. I definitely not recommend this lawyer.

ABSOLUTE LIE! I never ever promise anything but that we will try our best. There were NO POINTS at the end, So this sounds like a very positive experience. We represent people so that they don’t have to come to court and can take advantage of our expertise and always try our best to have a positive outcome. Whenever I speak to someone I explain everything carefully and list all the possible outcomes of a case and I never guarantee anything because usually these are real trials. The person then makes a decision if they would like to proceed. This is why we have so many POSITIVE REVIEWS. Of course someone has to write a negative review that could even be my competition for all I know trying to ruin my reputation as we are at the top right now. Please read my other reviews carefully as you see we get great results.

Cellphone Use and Texting

Driving on Vanderbilt Avenue, I made a left turn on Atlantic Avenue, tNYC had just placed a No turn sign and as soon as i turned left, an NYPD Officer gave me a Disobey traffic control device ticket which is 2 points and a fine. I have a Commecial Driver's license in New York for more than 30 years.... 30 years or 30 days it's still serious offense. What was my solution?? I hired the best. Don't gamble with you license record!! Hire the best!! I don't understand DMV rules and wouldn't take the chance. My cousin when to traffic court 2 weeks, for a moving violation. She did not hire an attorney and was found guilty, no points but she has to pay a fine. Don't take that chance especially in New York City. No one at Sharnov's firm made unrealistic claims or false promises. They just guaranteed the best representation and that is what I got.

Search no more!

During the time of facing serious points toward my license, Anthony and his team put me at ease. I would call them after receiving next court date and they would tell me forget about it. " Let us worry it , you continue to worry about your family. I love these guys. Put your faith in them.
