Sandy

I can’t thank you enough for the outstanding job you did for my daughter. We were really worried and you performed a miracle! 6 points to 0 points! Plus everyone in your office including you, was warm and reassuring, and totally professional. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

Got a speeding ticket? Don't panic. You've gotta call Jim Wagman!

Jim is very professional and competent. I was kept updated on everything and received the wonderful news that my (first ever) ticket was reduced 0! The process was smooth and easy as Jim and team took care of everything. I certainly recommend Jim to anyone presented with a traffic citation. His flat ...fee rate is also super reasonable and it is absolutely worth every penny knowing that you are in good hands!

Total Pleasure to Talk to and Honest

I got pulled over for 73 in a 55, but the officer gave a road side reduction to an 1110A disobeyed traffic device. He said it was no points, but after doing some research I found out it was 2 points. I called Mr Wagman and he was a pleasure to talk with on the phone. He spent 20 minutes talking with ...me and did not rush off. He let me know that he could likely reduce it to a 0 point ticket and told me all of the fees, which were very reasonable. He was also very honest with me and did not just try to convince me to hire him. He said, since I had a clean record, that the 2 points would likely not cause any increase in my insurance. He said it may not be worth the extra cost and I should check with my insurance company before hiring him. Well I did check and my company said it would not increase my rates. So for now I will not be hiring Mr Wagner, but definitely would use him if I get pulled over again. Thanks!!

Great results - pleasant to work with

I was very impressed with the services James provided. Negotiated a high points ticket down to 2 points. Very pleasant to work with, down to earth, returned calls and gave personal attention to the case. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the area looking for these services.

Speeding Ticket

I got a speeding ticket while driving on route 17. I'm not from the area, just passing through. I was dreading the idea of having to take off work to fight this. Mr. Wagman has fair rates and took care of everything without me having to make a appearance. The fine was reduced to 0 points. Thanks M...r. Wagman.
