Ticket Dismissed

Attorney Malefyt was a pleasure to work with relative to a traffic violation I received in Detroit. There is truth in advertisement. Believe it. Great job on getting my case dismissed.

Excellent Service and Results

Tim was courteous and helpful navigating my options. Upon taking my case (speeding ticket with multiple points), he took care of everything, keeping me in the loop. I didn't have to appear in court at all, and all of my points were dismissed. The fine itself was even reduced. I highly recommend Tim's... services.

Did exactly way he said he could do

Tim is an exceptional attorney. I was very unsure with the ticket i had received from a state trooper, 20 mph over posted. With Tim's help and guidance all was taken care of. Tim is a great professional. I would recommend him to any of my friends and family. Thank you again tim.

I'd recommend Tim

After getting tagged for doing 45mph on Gratiot I wanted to get my charges reduced from 2 pts to none. Tim contacted me by way of a mailing saying that he can represent me, even though I didn’t think you could hire a lawyer for a traffic violation. I contacted him by phone and we chatted about my c...ase and I agreed to hire Tim. I paid his fee online and he handled both the pre-trial and trial. Yes, it takes two half days to get stuff handled in the Detroit courts. He was able to get my charges reduced to a charge that won’t show on my insurance. The court fees and fines were also reduced, something I doubt I would have been able to do on my own. Tim let me know about my outcome within hours of the verdict. I’d hire Tim in a heartbeat and would recommend him to my friends.

Tim Paul Malefyt is the Real Deal

I was contacted by Tim via email with an offer to represent me with a City of Detroit moving violation. My 1st thought was "yea, right!" an unsolicited email lawyer. Figuring nothing to lose, I called him and he promptly returned my call. He explained his skills, services and reasonable fees. I... agreed to review his contract and made the decision to sign and return it. From that point on he took charge. Tim handles two hearing without my presence being necessary and, thus, no work time lost. Our original discussion left me with a non-guaranteed assurance that the charge would likely be reduced and possibly dismissed. A few hours after the time of the final hearing, I was emailed a copy of the Judge's decision that documented the charges were dismissed and all fines and fees were reversed. I am 100% satisfied and recommend Tim Paul Malefyt as a trustworthy and skilled attorney in motor vehicle citations.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
