Posted by Nicole | December 14, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Dependable, respected attorney that works for his clients

Thanks to Mr. John Mussetto a lot of stress was taken off of our family. I would have had to take off work, travel out of town, attend traffic court, pay a large fine and have a lot of points on my license (causing insurance premiums to go up) all because of a unfortunate situation that was unavoida...ble. With Mr. Mussetto's experience and swift attention - he was able to work out a much better situation for me (and my family). Mr. Mussetto is an attorney you can trust and rely on to look out for your best interest.

Straightforward Professionalism

I contacted Mr. Mussetto regarding an unfortunate traffic incident, in the hopes that he could provide advice on how to reduce the number of points that I was facing. Mr. Mussetto provided a solid assessment of best- and worst-case scenario, and offered to work with the officer and court on my behal...f. The results exceeded all of my expectations. He was able to work with the officer and explain my situation, and saved me an incredible amount of time and money. I would recommend Mr. Mussetto to anyone who is looking for an honest and reliable attorney. He was upfront regarding his fees and never failed to provide prompt answers to my questions.

Speeding ticket

I got a speeding ticket while driving through a construction zone. Mr. Mussetto got the ticket reduced to less than half with no jail time.

  • 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.
