The BEST!

Ben is the best! During those unfortunate times that I receive a ticket, I always know I can count on Ben to get me through. He is very responsive and always delivers a positive outcome.

Best experience working with Ben

Best experience working with Ben. He handled my upstate NY ticket with ease. I was nervous about having to return to upstate ny hours away but Ben handled it and brought down all the charges against me. He was very thorough and explained everything to me along the way. Thank you so much!!

Satisfied client

i received a mailer from Bens office after i had incurred a serious traffic violation. I contacted Ben for a consultation. Consultation went very well, he explained all options available to me and presented me with a couple of possible acceptable outcomes. I decided to hire him to handle my case.... Ben was able to get me the best possible outcome in this matter. I hope I don't need an attorney in the future, but if I do, I will definitely contact Ben first. I get the impression Ben really cares about his clients. I feel like he did an excellent job for me. And without breaking the bank. Thank you Ben. Your the best

Professional and Competent

I utilized Counselor Akbulut for several traffic matters. The office is competent, professional, and very responsive. I would recommend his services and use him again.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
