David Kapp is an honest, experienced and professional attorney.

Mr. Kapp successfully negotiated a disposition in a case before the Suffolk County Traffic Violations Agency, a tribunal notorious for its strict policies and procedures, that resulted in the reduction of what would have been a costly and burdensome conviction. He is distinguished by his honesty, re...cognized for his vast experience as a expert traffic lawyer and highly regarded as a professional attorney throughout Long Island. When I appeared with him he was well received and respected by all the court staff, was greeted personally by the prosecutor and judge who readily recognized him and knew and respected him and even exchanged laughs with the court's clerks who processed the case quickly and efficiently. I recommend him without reservation and urge that you contact him if you are ticketed by the police. He provided me with comprehensive and frank advice, courteous service and very reasonable fees. I will certainly contact Mr. Kapp should I need his services again and I will indeed recommend him to my friends, family and colleagues.

The best traffic attorney in NYC area!

You can hire David and put things on autopilot. I've worked with a few different traffic attorneys over time and David is head over shoulders the best. He's responsive, knows what he's doing and gets the job done. I would use him again and recommend him to all my friends.

Very professional and accessible with a flavor of humor.

I received a traffic ticket for speeding and it carried a fine and 6 points on my license. Mr. Kapp was recommended on the internet and I called him to discuss the incident and how things are now handled at the SCTPVA. He gave it to me straight, but in a way that someone without a law degree could un...derstand easily. I found myself laughing with him a few times and felt like I was in good hands. After retaining him, I sent him my ticket and he took care of the rest. A few weeks later, I received a note and a resolution of the ticket. 0 Points and a fine. Any questions I had, he was happy to help. I couldn't have been in better hands and rarely feel compelled to write a review. A++

fast and reliable, great communication

I'm a professional who deals with plenty of lawyers and Mr. Kapp had zero attitude (awesome!) and an abundance of professionalism (told me what I needed to know about speeding tickets and what the plan of action was). His follow up was rock solid. When I took an extra few days to mail in my fine (he ...provided the SAS, very convenient) he emailed to check in. Best of all, I never spoke to anyone other than him. If you are looking for someone to "take care of it" you can't do better.
