Traffic Ticket

Mr.Kassman was very kind, supportive and kept me less stressed. He got my charges reduced and had to pay a small fee. He is the best!

Excellent Attorney

I had a case in May, 2015 with Attorney Kassman. I handed him three traffic violation tickets to him. Although I lost two tickets and it was not a problem for him. He took care of all of them before July, 2015. In February,2016, I got a letter that said there would be a suspension of my license in Ma...rch, 2016. I thought the Attorney didn't handle them well. After I did some research, I realized it was my mistake that I didn't explain well to Mr. Kassman my situation resulted the consequence. However, my attorney did not charge me more to take care of this and he put a lot of efforts and time to dismissed my ticket. He is a pretty reasonable and patient attorney. I recommend him.

INCREDIBLE, EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE ATTORNEY!!!

I am beyond thrilled I chose Shawn to handle my criminal case and now feel like a new person. I didn't have any criminal lawyer recommendations to go off of so I found him by searching online and chose him because his website explained what I was facing in detail and provided the likely outcome, unli...ke the other attorney websites I came across that just try to scare you into hiring an attorney. He is available 24/7 and took the time to explain everything in detail during my first phone call to his office before even meeting for a consultation or retaining him as my attorney. He assured me that everything would be alright and he knew exactly what the entire process would be as well as the outcome. I was a nervous wreck about this case but, from the start, Shawn gave me peace of mind, which was priceless to me. His fee was extremely reasonable. I did speak with others in the same situation who were paying up to double his fee and getting much less service from their attorneys. I had a lot going on in my personal life and Shawn was extremely sympathetic and went above and beyond to get my case taken care of right away, prior to my initial court date. The court told me that could not be done yet Shawn still made it happen. He is such an honest, compassionate and knowledgeable attorney, which is not easy to find. I am truly so grateful I chose him to handle my case. I really can't say enough. He is incredible!!!!!
