Gentleman and a scholar.

Mr. Averbuck counseled me on a matter that at first had me worried. He explained the situation in ways that I understood and in fact told me I was not in the wrong after all. He took the time to make sure he saw all angles of the situation and was easy to talk to. HIGHLY recommend!

An attorney you can trust!

Mr. Averbuck is a really reliable attorney. I may encounter a serious problem for a pending case due to family reason. Then I found Mr. Averbuck. He is really really helpful: professional, with detailed advice, and am ready to be of help. Eventually Mr. Averbuck got the very nice result for my ca...se. I can move on with my life and I hope that will be the end of my nightmare for the almost most serious problem in my life. So, Mr. Averbuck knows exactly how to handle the case! If you need help, Mr. Averbuck should be THE ONE you can call.

From a fellony to a misdemeanor charge

No Doubt one of the best Mr. Averbuck not only reduced my felony charge to a misdemeanor but also kept me from doing community service. He knows the system and how to get you the best deal possible highly recommended.

Saved me

Mr Averbuck was absolutely fantastic .... worked very hard on my DUI. .. he was able to get the charges dropped down to a Wreck less Driving after 6 months of appearing in court for me... I live out of the county over 2 hrs away and he appeared for me and kept me up to date with everything. . He alwa...ys returned my calls and kept me calm during my crisis. .. he never made me feel like a criminal and I appreciate that. .. if you are looking for an amazing lawyer that will work hard and have your best interest at heart, go with Mr Averbuck. .. Also his receptionist is so friendly and helpful so she is great too!

10 mph over speeding ticket

Philip Averbuck, First of all, thank you so much! I got a speeding ticket for 10 mph over. I am a CDL holder and drive 18 wheelers for a living. A ticket on my license could make or break me. Philip, not only took my case, but really helped me out once I told him I did 12 years active duty Army and a...m now in the national guard. He represented me in court completely pro bono. So not only does he really care, but he got my case dropped. And too the point where I did not even have to pay the ticket. I could not have called a better person to represent me. If you need legal assistance, don't hesitate, call Philip Averbuck. I am sure glad I did.
