Highly recommended

Glenn has handled two traffic violations for me. I call him, his office sends paperwork, I send everything back and he gives a detailed explanation of the outcome after he goes to court. He has been very successful in negotiating plea's for traffic tickets resulting in 0 points on my license with pay...ment of a fine. It is very convenient to have someone handle everything. I would definitely recommend using him as a defense lawyer for traffic infractions.

Couldn't have found a better lawyer for my needs

I would VERY HIGHLY recommend Mr. Glenn Bruno’s services to anyone considering hiring him. This is why: I got a speeding ticket while on vacation. After appealing my ticket, I needed to hire a lawyer to appear for me, since I am a college student and didn’t have the time to leave school and appear a...t a hearing. While shopping around for a lawyer, I called Mr. Bruno. The number I called went to his personal cell. He informed me that not only was he familiar with the prosecuting court, but he had also known the prosecutor for a while, and that the prosecutor did not give much lenience for my kind of speeding ticket. He said that he would try his best, but my trial may not turn out how I was hoping. I chose Mr. Bruno’s firm over others because of his honesty. Despite his realism when I spoke to him on the phone, the amount that I ended up spending on the reduced ticket and his services was similar to what I would have spent on the original ticket alone. It was definitely worth it, since I now have no points on my license and my insurance rates won’t go up. After hiring him, I never had to lift a finger; he handled my case himself and sent me the results of my hearing the day before my first final exam. What a relief that was! If you are considering him among other lawyers for your own legal situation, I would recommend calling Mr. Bruno. He is a straightforward man who doesn’t mince words, and his experience trumps all other lawyers in his area.

Best Legal Support in Dutchess County, NY

I've experienced the very good fortunate of having Glenn R. Bruno, ESQ. and his law firm represent me on two distinct traffic court cases. In both instances, Glenn and his colleagues exceeded my expectations by having charges reduced that allowed me to avoid accumulating points that would have raise...d my auto insurance premium substantially. In addition, the total in court fines were always well below the maximum that could have levied. That's right - a win win! :) I received refund checks that provided a nice bump to my discretionary spending budget! I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge Glenn's administrative staff as their professionalism and efficiency were outstanding -- my voicemail messages were always returned promptly and answers to my questions were always provided in a clear and concise manner. If you need legal representation for any speeding or traffic citations, I strongly recommend selecting Glenn and his team!

Honest from the Get-Go

When I first contacted Mr. Bruno regarding a traffic summons I received he honestly laid out the best and worst case scenarios for my case. His staff lead me through the process of my appeal quite easily and with great skill. The only bump in the road was when I had mailed payment and faxed some do...cuments I asked for confirmation of their receipt and received none. Other than that my case was handled professionally and expediently and to my satisfaction. I recommend Mr Bruno and his office.
