Posted by anonymous | January 31, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Amazing Lawyer!

I received a speeding ticket from a state trooper for going 30+ mph over the speed limit. The first thing I did was search for an attorney, as I was facing a possible license suspension. I selected Michael due to his high Avvo rating, and I'm certainly glad I did! He recommended that I take three dri...ver improvement courses (two online ,one in person). I was able to text him a picture of the ticket and he filed all the necessary paperwork. The end result was me paying a reduced fine and getting two points on my license (versus the 5 and the suspension I was looking at). I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in a similar situation.

Personable and Results Oriented

Mr. Greenberg handled my traffic case for me from PA without me even being there. I recently moved away and missed a payment from my payment plan right around the time I needed to renew my precessional license. Anyone who's ever been on a payment plan in PA for traffic violations knows this not onl...y gets you PA Driver License suspended, but also causes you to have a warrant placed out for your attest. Since I was renewing a professional licenses during that time I needed to have this resolved immediately. I went online to find someone in PA who could help me handle my situation. I read the reviews of the first few attorneys o the site and really liked what I read about Mr. Greenberg. I definitely made the right choice. He handled my situation quickly, and even continued to follow up with me. It's a good thing he did too, because some kind of screw up happened a couple months later and he again quickly resolved it at no additional charge. He even sent me a Christmas card (through US Postal Svc) not just some email. He really stays on his job and I would recommend him to friends and family. His hard work and dedication helped me not miss a beat in my career. Hire this guy, it's in your best interest.

Exceptional Lawyer!! Hire him!!! Part 2

Hello again. I am the same reviewer dated "Dec 6, 2015." I wasn't able to fit everything I needed to say in one review so I just wanted to add a little more as I feel it's important. First let me say if you're reading this and have been charged with a number of motor vehicle violations and scared,... confused and hesitant to hire a lawyer I strongly advise you from my personal experience do not wait like I did. My driving record is not indicative of my real life. I'm a college graduate, I have a great career and life but somehow let my driving record spiral out of control. I made some careless and poor decisions and was embarrassed and scared for 2 years straight! It was terrible driving everyday (I had no choice I needed to get to work) knowing if I got pulled over I was getting arrested. I would be scared anytime I have someone in the car with me that I would get pulled over. It was not a fun experience! You cannot run from your problems or they would come to you. That's why I ended up in another accident 2 years later and I was forced to deal with my charges. Although I did reach out to Mr Greenberg a week prior to the accident. Had I taken care of this when it first happened, I would of saved myself a lot of stress, money, surcharges and license suspensions. Lastly, I cannot reiterate the level of respect I have for Mr Greenberg and the way he handled all of my cases. He was always available by phone, very communicative, he kept me in the loop about everything even when he took a vacation I knew about it! He has a very calm demeanor which helps in these stressful situations. In addition his rates are very reasonable! All the Attorneys I reached out to were double and triple his cost. If you have any traffic violations and/or your situation seems hopeless, I URGE you to call Mr. Greenberg!! An exceptional Lawyer yo say the least. You will get favorable results!! Again thank you Mr Greenberg!! Also thanks to AVVO for this website as its a great resource in finding a quality Attorney.

EXCEPTIONAL Lawyer! Hire him!!!!

I first came on AVVO in September 2013. I had a laundry list of charges: Driving while suspended, hit and run (I hit another vehicle not a person), careless driving, reckless driving, leaving the scene of an accident, warrants out for my arrest and several other motor vehicle charges. I also had pend...ing a driving while suspended in 2 other courts with warrants attached to them. I was frantic and scared after the accident, came on here to find a top attorney. I contacted several of these so called Top 10 with 5 star ratings and all of them basically said I was pretty much ass'd out because of where I got my tickets and where the accident happened. The towns I got my tickets in are suburban towns in blue ribbon school districts; basically affluent townships with a lot of money. What I gathered from these so called top lawyers that could not help me were they were only successful in certain courts mainly urban areas like Newark, Trenton, Patterson, Elizabeth etc. it's way easier to get tickets thrown out in these courts as the judges have bigger problems to deal with like crime. I was discouraged and scared I did nothing for 2 years straight!! I was literally driving with no license and warrants for 2 years. Move it along circa 2015 I run into another vehicle. Wasn't my fault this time as the jerk stopped his car in the middle of the road; regardless I hit him so it was my fault. Of course I'm terrified because I have all these warrants and unresolved charges. I get arrested for all the pending charges in addition to DUI, refusal to take the breathalyzer test, reckless driving, another hit and run ( this time I was honestly trying to get out the road as it was dark and late and the other drivers were all men. I wanted to get to a lit safe location). I was bailed out by a friend that night. I actually initially contacted Mr Greenberg a week prior for my other pending charges. I was so tired of driving with anxiety and scared eveytime I'm on the road. I also wanted my life back and wanted to resolve everything. From the very start Mr Greenberg was very calm and respectful. He showed so much compassion and never once did I ever feel judged by him. He took immediate action and assured me that everything would be ok. I'm thinking there is no way I'm not going to jail and this man is selling me a dream! I honestly cannot put into words how this man has pretty much saved my life and career. He had a game plan for all 3 courts I had charges in. The first court were I had driving while suspended, mind you have about 5 of those on my driving record already which carries jail time. Mr Greenberg had me in and out of the court with minimum fines and no license suspension. The second court with all big charges; the judge was a prick! He was so mean to all the cases before me I just knew I was going to jail!! Nope didn't happen! He scolded me for waiting 2 years to take care of the matter but Mr Greenberg worked his magic behind the scenes and I was free to go with no license suspension and minimal fines all charges dropped except careless driving. Last court which was 2 days ago; Mr Greenberg was able to get most charges dropped and had the leaving the scene turned into careless driving which is major!!!! My license was still suspended for 7 months (I knew this would happen and he was upfront) he got the DUI dropped, which again is MAJOR!!!! I refused to take the breathalyzer test which by law it's an automatic 7 month suspension there is NO way around it! Look it up! The judge and the prosecutor both highly praised Mr Greenberg in my case exclaiming I had a great lawyer! The judge is also a hard judge so for him to say that speak volumes!! Mr Greenberg had the video of my sobriety field test viewed by the court which clearly showed I was not drunk and the state would be foolish to challenge it! If you are looking for an expert traffic lawyer with a proven traffic record and results HIRE Mr Greenberg!! Thank you again!!!

Prompt, efficient, communicative and aggressive

Mike was easy to get in touch with by text and we sent photos of the tickets, docs etc through text - very easy. $150 is the going rate for legal representation at traffic court and Mike is the best there is. If you stand to save a decent amount of money/points it is hands down worthwhile to hire an ...attorney. Personally I had 2 tickets - $138 and $570. He was able to get the ticket for $570 thrown out so I SAVED $420 (after the $150 to hire Mike)! I definitely recommend him and will use him again if I ever need him!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
