Excellent lawyer to work with!!!

I got into an accident on dec 2017 near buffalo NY. I have consulted many lawyers and most of them were really looking to lure the money and they tried to scare me by saying the words that worsens my situation. Finally I found Nikole in Avvo with best reviews and tried reaching her out. She respond...ed with the grace and tried to understand my situation. She resolved my case with converting 2 traffic tickets to 2 parking tickets with 200$ fine which is totally worth. No points were imposed on my driving record or insurance. Nikole is such a down to earth, humble and easy to access person who always cares for her client and tried to clarify all the obstacles or doubts that one have. I truly appreciate her affords in resolving my case and others too. I would highly reccomend her for any traffic matters!! She’s doing the great service to public as a lawyer!! NOTE- money is the least she talks about, she’s more concerned about the the clients situation which is very rare to find the kind of people these days. Thanks Nikole!!

Best Traffic Lawyer in the Buffalo NY Area

Recently, I was pulled over in Erie County (a speed trap area where the speed limit drops from 65 to 55) during a trip to Niagara Falls and was cited three traffic violations. As most out-of-towners are wont to do, I had originally considered pleading guilty and paying any related fees online. When I... looked into the possible ramifications of pleading guilty, I was appalled to find that I would have incurred $1600+ in total fines (incl. NY surcharges & a civil penalty) and 12 points on my driving record. Therefore, I was compelled to find an attorney in the Buffalo area who would represent me to the fullest extent. Ms. Nikole Wynn proved to be the best traffic attorney I have ever hired, as she exceeded all of my expectations and provided kindness, reassurance and empathy to my situation. In just one court appearance, Ms. Wynn was able to get one ticket dismissed in its entirety, and got the other two tickets reduced to the equivalent of parking tickets. She successfully reduced 12 possible driving record points to 0 (ZERO!!) and minimize the $1600+ fines to a mere $100 court fine. Her rate was more than reasonable, and I urge anyone and everyone, especially out-of-towners, to seek out Ms. Wynn for traffic court representation! #Wynning!

Quick and Easy

She called me back about an hour after I emailed her through this site, and gave me straight-forward, honest advice for my situation, including being genuinely sympathetic to my dilemma (there was nothing her or any lawyer could do to solve my problem with the DMV) and made me feel as good as can be ...expected about receiving disappointing news. Definitely came across as genuine care and it was very much appreciated. Will definitely use her if I have any other issues.

This Lawyer is a Life Saver

For about a year, I was receiving traffic tickets every week. I was in a bad place in my life and didn't really care about the tickets, my license, or myself, so I never answered them and my license was suspended. I continued driving on a suspended license and was eventually arrested for that. All i...n all I was facing a ton of points on my license and a long suspension of my license. When I finally got my life together, I began asking friends/family for advise about what attorney to hire to help me out of this mess. I was referred to Nikole. I gave her a call and immediately I could tell she is a caring attorney who is concerned about her clients' well being. I talked to Nikole about my case, the possible penalties and my desired outcome for over half an hour and she never even mentioned the fee. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I understood everything before discussing the fee arrangement. She offered a free consultation and did not make me feel like I was wasting her time. When we did discuss the fee, it was reasonable and fair. Nikole explained the process to me and gave me realistic expectations. Nikole was able to appear in multiple courts for me and have all of the pending cases resolved. The outcomes were much better than I expected and I am so pleased. Nikole saved my license, avoided any additional points on my record, and really was there for me in a way that no other attorney has been. She has made me think differently about attorneys and I am so thankful I was referred to her. I highly recommend Nikole for the most challenging cases!

Simply the Best!

I hired Nikole for to handle some criminal and traffic matters. Because I was facing jail time and the loss of my license, I was obviously nervous and worried about hiring the right attorney. When I called Nikole she was kind and understanding about my situation. I spoke with her personally and d...id not have to wade through receptionists to get to her. Unlike the other lawyers I spoke with, Nikole was concerned about understanding my situation rather than just telling me her price and trying to get my payment information. She took the time to listen to all of my concerns and offered a very fair price for her services. She handled my case with the utmost care and kept me informed every step of the way. She went above and beyond on many respects and was simply a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Nikole. She is fair, smart, and gets great results.

"Nikole is an amazing attorney. She began working at my firm immediately following law school, and has proven herself to be an asset to my practice. Nikole has achieved stellar results for her clients –results that attorneys twenty years her senior have not obtained. Nikole’s meticulous research and writing skills have resulted in numerous dismissals. Moreover, Nikole has had impressive success with overcoming licensing issues for our DWI clients. In addition to being intelligent and driven, Nikole is well-liked by her clients, co-workers, colleagues, and judges. I highly recommend Nikole for criminal, traffic, and DWI matters."
