Traffic Ticket Defence at it's Best

David is a very proficient capable attorney. He knows the system inside and out with an intimate knowledge of all the particulars as the will relate to the case. He does his homework and obtains the best result for his clients. I could not be more pleased with his professionalism, courtesy, knowledge... of the system and the laws as well as his communication. AAAAAA+++++++++++ Thanks David!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Long Island Speeding Ticket

David's knowledge of the law and expertise mitigated the stress caused by the ticketing experience. His case follow up and communication of options kept me informed as well as educated, and when the case was won, it made the whole process worth the fight.

Posted by Warren S. | June 27, 2012 | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Extremely Pleased.

My son received a red light ticket in Suffolk County as an inexperienced driver. David walked me through the process specific to the court in which he was to appear, told me every detail of the process and possible outcomes, and the scope and complete cost of his services. He went on to provide t...hose services in a professional manner and communicated clearly the progress of the case at every step. Granted power of attorney, he handled every detail without any appearance or inconvenience of myself or my son. I was fortunate that his dedication to the case and a bit of luck (as he had explained to me in detail at the outset), led to the dismissal of the case. I would highly recommend his professional services.

Very reasonable, professional and knowledgeable.

I met Dave after scouring the internet for a traffic lawyer I felt would be able to represent me to the fullest. Well after the fact, I feel like Dave did exactly that. He kept me informed after every single court date and made me feel very comfortable from the second I called him until the end of my... case. He was very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the law as well as the specific court houses on Long Island. He was also very nice and easy to talk to and answered all my questions throughout my year and a half speeding altercation promptly whenever I would randomly decide to call or email him. In the end I was up against a 6 point speeder in the Hauppauge TVB with a cop who was definitely showing up considering we had a bitter exchange during the ticketing. Dave was very upfront about the possible outcomes and ultimately he was able to get me a 2 point reduction on the grounds that the cop was driving a vehicle that did not have its speedometer calibrated. I am very very happy because had I represented myself like I did the last time, I would have surely been charged with the full 6 points and would have most likely gotten my CDL suspended. Thanks again Dave, not too many people ask about traffic lawyers but when they do I will be singing your praises.
