Traffic Court Representation

Todd Projansky was extremely professional and upfront about his experience in traffic court. Overall, he delivered a favorable outcome. I would definitely recommend him as an attorney.

Highly Recommended

Retained Todd for my 16 year old son's Class B misdemeanor speeding ticket. Courteous, professional, respectful. Under promised, over delivered. Would hire again in a heartbeat.

A1

Todd stepped in to assist on my case when my attorney was unable to make a court date. Todd has since stood up for him a handful of times and has really done the unthinkable as for getting me into a good position on this case. This man is amazing and I highly recommend him to anybody in need of a str...ong attorney that actually listens to his client and treats his client like a human.. respectfully.. and like a friend!
