Diligently Defense - Highly Recommend

I am very pleased with the outcome of my case. I contacted Ralph Habib from the Azria & Bruffett group to represent me in my defense in connection with a speeding ticket. I had the opportunity to speak with Mr. Habib and found him to be professional and diligent in this area of law. I felt his backg...round and experience would undoubtedly be the right choice. Shannon Liparulo the Paralegal was great at keeping me informed as to the status and sharing the outcome of the case with me. She always answered and returned my calls and emails. I honestly recommend Mr. Ralph Habib and the team from Azria & Bruffett! Thank you Mr. Habib and Shannon. From Melton S. Marie

Better than I hoped for

I hired Mr. Habib to represent me in my recent DWI case on the recommendation of a friend. He handled my case professionally and with great knowledge of the process. I consider his experience as a former assistant DA to be one of his best assets. Knowing the other side of the system as well as he doe...s allows him to apply a strong and efficient strategy to achieve the best possible outcome for there defendant, and quickly. Mr. Habib was able to get my criminal charge reduced to a violation, other tickets were dropped, and even got the fine reduced by several hundred dollars, all in just two court dates. I feel very fortunate to have received the outcome I did, and Mr. Habib was 100% responsible for that.

Great Lawyer

I have hired Ralph Habib to represent me for a speeding ticket I received in NY. He was able to reduce my points and I only had to pay a minimal court fine. I am very pleased with the result and would definitely recommend Ralph's services for traffic related court matters.

Posted by Robert | December 21, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Best attorney in Upstate NY

Making this short and simple: I had over 15 traffic infractions/violations for driving without a license, speeding and among other serious infractions. Needless to say , Ralph took care of this all for me and I ended up just paying fines for the traffic tickets - Also , I'm a licensed driver now! ... Thanks a lot Ralph for your service , I would recommend anyone who gets in trouble with the law to first contact Ralph Habib.
