Beat Speeding Ticket

When we got speeding ticket on Central Ave Colonie , we were shocked upcoming circumstances which meant higher fine and possible increasing cost in our insurance then I gave call to Nick who helped and set us in comfort zone. I highly recommend Nick for resolve your Traffic infraction.

Excellent service and results!

I recently hired Mr. Abdo to represent me regarding a traffic infraction in Malta, NY. I was driving from Saratoga Springs toward Clifton Park on Route 9 and I got a ticket near the State Troopers station south of the Malta Traffic Circle. I immediately contacted Nick to help me resolve my issue. ... Nick was responsive, thorough, efficient and he quickly put me at ease. Nick got a better result than I could have imagined and his fee was shockingly reasonable. I recommend Nick to anyone needing honest and diligent legal representation!

Excellent Traffic Lawyer

Nick has helped me twice on traffic violations. He is affordable, honest and efficient. I received resolution both times very quickly, and in my favor.

Thank you! Thank you!

Nick helped me with speeding tickets, a seat belt ticket and a cell phone ticket over the years. In one of the cases i did nothing more then mail him the ticket, i signed a form and the matter disappeared! no fine, no points! The other tickets were all greatly reduced to parking tickets with no point...s and minimal fines! Nick did a great job in keeping me informed and handling my matters quickly. I would highly recommend Nick for anyone that requires legal assistance.

Not all representation is created equally

Sometimes everyday good people fracture an occasional law or two. And for those of us not familiar with the frivolous procedures of our legal system, a day in court can prove to be extremely difficult, confusing and overwhelming. I highly recommend you seek representation in even the most minor affa...irs. Take it from me… A few hundred dollars for representation can save you thousands of dollars in fines, insurance spikes, and a tarnished record. HOWEVER, not all representation is created equally. Similar to finding a good honest mechanic or handyman, finding the right representation can prove to be a difficult task. All too often I hear people complaining that the attorney they hired did not take their matter seriously, and settled on outcomes that could have been obtained on their own. Over the past 12 years Nick Abdo has represented me on 4 separate matters, including 3 traffic violations and 1 disorderly conduct ticket. On all matters Nick handled the situation with the utmost professionalism. Nick listened to me and seamed to understand that even good people can make mistakes. He thoroughly explained the procedures “in layman’s terms” and helped me understand the rights I had and the options I would most likely be faced with at the end of the day. Nick’s knowledge and decades of experience became evident when the matters unfold exactly as he explained. What I believe that sets Nick apart is the care and effort he put forth on all my matters big or small. I watched him methodically negotiate and fight for the best possible outcome; he did not just fold on the first offer. I truly felt my hard earned money was put to good use every time I hired Nick. I can confidently say that Nick has saved me thousands of dollars in fines and insurance premium spikes due to points on my record. I hope I never have to call Nick again, but if that unfortunate time comes. There is no person I would trust to handle my matter other than Nick.
