Review of Marci Goldfarb

Hired Marci to represent my son in a traffic case, he got a ticket for speeding in upstate NY, potentially 6 pts but she got it reduced to no points & a parking violation! She cares about her clients & has great followup.

Posted by Armani | November 22, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

QUEEN OF LAW!

I came to Marci with points on my license, prior violations, and no hope that anything could be done with a new ticket, Marci was HONEST, UPFRONT, REAL, yet comforting. I trusted her fully and did not expect a miracle except that is EXACTLY what she did turning my speeding ticket to a parking ticket.... Let me tell you something this woman is the real deal, I wish somebody told me about her for all my other tickets. Thank you simply isn’t enough, the woman is worth every penny. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND.

Amazing!!

Outside of Marci Goldfarb being incredibly kind and nice, she was beyond helpful. Marci jumped on my case the moment I got off the phone with her, and my traffic violation was resolved in a matter of days! All while communicating every step of the process with me. Outstanding work, highly recomme...nded!!!

Speeding ticket

So happy with the representation that Marci gave to my son. Helped reduce a speeding ticket which may have caused him to have his license suspended down to a minor violation. She was sincere and extremely responsive to both of us throughout the whole process. He is so happy with the results- as... am I. Bring a new driver with a first offense is very scary, Marci made him feel at ease and stress free, following her directives this was a success!!!

Double tickets

Marci was a huge lifesaver. It was last minute and I called her and no question she took my case. She made it super easy and stress free for me. I had 2 tickets that needed to be taken care at the same time. She did an amazing job. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend her! She is also super nice and easy to ta...lk to.

"I have known Marci since 1984. From the day I met her I was impressed with her intelligence, toughness and diligence. Marci helped my teenage son when he first got his license and got a speeding ticket. He could have had his license taken away. Marci was very impressive the way she handled my son's court appearance. She made sure my son was too scared to ever do it again but she also ensured that he got the best possible result from the judge. She knows all the prosecutors and judges in all the courts. Since that time I have recommended her services to numerous family members and friends and many have been repeat clients of hers. I would strongly endorse Marci as a highly skilled, knowledgable and competent attorney."
