The Best

Last year I was falsely accused of a serious crime. After speaking with Mr. Riotto I knew he would be my best option. I was right. James advised me of the process and protected my rights as if I was a member of his family. I will never forget the excellent work and personal attention that he gave me ...during a very difficult time of my life. Many thanks James!

CT resident with speeding ticket

I'd just like to say that James and his team did a terrific job with my case. I received a speeding ticket (going 83 on a 65 speed limit) and being an expat I didn't know how to resolve this as smooth as possible. James and the team managed to decrease my ticket to a parking ticket. The rate of their... service was significantly lower than others so it was a win-win. Thanks for the great service again!

Canadian with out of town speeding ticket

I can't recommend this law office enough. I got a speeding ticket in New York on my way back to Canada. Unlike all the other law offices I called, I immediately knew that Mr.Riotto's law office was special because besides being courteous and asking all the right questions, they knew who the presiding... judge was. I felt confident that they had experience with this type of case and were familiar with the Monroe County court. I'm still amazed at the result. They handled everything for me, so I didn't have to travel back down to the states. The best I was hoping for was to have my speed reduced but I wasn't very hopeful because the cop had already given me a reduction. Mr. Riotto surpassed all expectations by negotiating the ticket down to a non moving violation! And he did all this for the best price out there. Amazing! I highly recommend his services.
