Rolling a stop sign ticket

Thank you so much Michael! Michael reopened a rolling a stop sign traffic ticket for me that was almost 6 months old. He was able to get the ticket dismissed as well as my bail refund of $234. I really did not think I would get my bail refunded, but when I called today to confirm my address, the pers...on stated yes, but it would take 12 weeks. Now I am back to having a clean record. I would not hesitate to use Michael again in the future and will refer him to friends and family if needed. yippy, clean record again!

Speeding ticket on Bay Bridge dismissed

I received a ticket for driving 70+mph in a 50mph zone on the Bay Bridge. Michael was responsive through email communication and was able to get my ticket dismissed. I can whole heatedly recommend his service to drivers who inadvertently get a speeding ticket and are concerned about the impact of t...he ticket on their driving record.

The Best DUI Attorney in San Mateo County

I visit San Mateo often for business. This often includes taking clients out, and inevitably involves consuming alcohol. On one fateful night after one such occasion, I was pulled over by a CHP officer for speeding. The next thing I know, I am standing on one leg, tilting my head back, and doing o...ther ridiculous movements. Needless to say, I was soon cuffed and on my way to give a blood test. I contacted many San Mateo DUI Lawyers, and Mike seemed the most trustworthy and aggressive. He handled my case perfectly, and resolved it with a reduction in charges and no license suspension, interlock device, etc. He made the whole process about as simple as it could be. Highly recommended.

Excellent traffic attorney for red light camera tickets

I received a citation at an Oakland red light camera late at night, when I was lost and looking for an onramp and turned into it without paying proper attention to the light. With no other cars around me and no pedestrians I put no one in danger and felt the exhorbitant cost of this ticket was unfair.... I called close to a dozen traffic lawyers and chose Mike because he responded promptly, answered all my questions thoroughly by phone and by email, and his price was reasonable. I decided it was worth the risk to try his services. He explained his strategy in my particular case and in due time he informed me that he managed to convince the judge to dismiss my ticket entirely...no points, no fine, nothing. He communicated with me respectfully and promptly and gave me results that are even better than I expected. I feel very lucky to have found such a competent lawyer for such cases and recommend him most highly.

Michael Silveira

Michael Silveira did an excellent job at getting my red light ticket dismissed. My supervisor who works at the san mateo court recommended me to MIchael Silveira. I was worried about paying so much money for a red light violation that I received and then having to worry about taking traffic school ...but Michael Silveira was able to take it to court and get it dismissed. He kept me informed about what was going on and what was going to happen.
