Well done!

I hired Glenn for help with settling a speeding ticket. He was forthcoming about the possible outcomes, responsive to my process inquiries, and delivered a settlement as promised. Well done!

Great Lawyer

I hired Glenn to assist me with a 6 point speeding ticket I received in Rhinebeck, NY. After doing my initial diligence and contacting a few law firms, Glenn was the only lawyer who talked to me versus a voicemail or paralegal at the competitors. His advise was thorough and he explained all the possi...ble outcomes of my traffic violation. I hired him immediately and couldn't be more happy with my decision. I got away with ZERO points on my license and a minimal fine. I would highly recommend him for assistance with any traffic violations in upstate New York given his experience, knowledge and relationships in the area.

Worst Lawyer

FACTS: Unfortunately, you do NOT want to hire this totally unprofessional, foul-mouth, loud-screaming “lawyer” to represent you in court. Just listen to him when something upsets him or doesn’t go as planned, and you’ll know not to hire him to represent you in court. I wish it weren’t true, but it ...happened and people should know. I was surprised after reading all these good comments about him! I wish I didn’t hire him. It makes a good story to tell others was about all my money got me.

Excellent Attorney

I received a 21 over speeding ticket in New York which consisted of a $100 per year fine for 3 years in addition to the cost of the ticket AND 6 points on my license. Mr. Bruno got the charge reduced to a parking ticket with a fine of $150 and 0 points on my license! I had also recently moved to Te...xas, so I was not able to resolve many issues with the court myself. However, Mr. Bruno streamlined the process for me and took care of everything. He was easily accessible via both phone and email. I will definitely return to him for future services if required, and I highly recommend him as an attorney.

Excellent Attorney

During November 2015, I got a ticket in the Village of Wappingers Falls for not yielding to the right of way of a pedestrian in a cross walk. This is a 3 point moving violation with a fine up to $150 and or imprisonment of up to 15 days in jail. After searching the internet, I found Mr. Bru...no's website. From the beginning, Mr. Bruno was very professional and took the time to listen to my side of the incident and explained in clear detail what my options were and what would happen going forward. Mr. Bruno's staff was also professional and responsive. All phone calls and emails were returned in a timely fashion either by Mr. Bruno or a staff member. Mr. Bruno was able to reduce the ticket to stopping / standing on pavement with 0 points and a small fine. Not only would I highly recommend Mr. Bruno but would certainly use his services again.
