Top notch service

I've gotten about 5 or so traffic tickets over the years. I've used Benjamin Goldmans law firm for each and every ticket and have had every single one of them dismissed, no points, and no fine. They really are amazing at what they do and are very communicative. Benjamin himself is a sweetheart of a g...uy, and talked me through a few scary tickets from a corrupt, horrible, cop. Their firm is the only one you should be going to for traffic violations. You won't be disappointed!

Unbelievable Disposition

As with most everyone here who has written a testimonial I, too, was stopped on the NY Thruway traveling 85 in a 65 with a 4 point ticket attached. The Trooper was equipped with two radar antennas and detected my speed while approaching his patrol vehicle from behind. Boy what a shock as I had no ide...a this was possible....but ignorance of the law is no excuse. I was quite worried what this would do to my driving record and my insurance premiums, not to mention my travel time from Baltimore, MD to upstate NY. During my google search, I came across Benjamin Goldman's website and took a look. The testimonials were very impressive so thought "what did I have to lose." I reached out, via email, and received a quick response. I was provided with all the logistics and was advised that it would take several months for the matter to conclude, would not need to appear in the Newburgh Town Court for trial, and that everything would be done, via email. WOW....OK, I'm liking this! I completed the required paperwork and provided Mr. Goldman's office with a copy of my clean driving record and that was it. It was six months before I thought about it again at which time I must have conjured up the outcome. A few days later, I received the following email: "We resolved your ticket...the four point speeding ticket was reduced to a parking ticket - VTL 1202b2 - "Parked Near a Fire Hydrant". Obviously this does not have any points, will not go on your record, and will not affect your insurance premiums." Wait WHAT??? OMGosh...."is this for real" was my first thought. I was elated!!! Looking back at all the testimonials, I realized I made the absolute best decision hiring Benjamin Goldman. Professional, competent and delivers outstanding results. "Thanks" just doesn't seem good enough. You ROCK Mr. Goldman and, although I hope not to need your services in the future, I will gladly offer them to others and will certainly keep your number handy. Thank you so much for an unbelievable disposition. All the best to you.

Benjamin Goldman was very professional and helped to get my ticket dismissed. I was in good hands and would definitely use him again if ever the need arose.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
