Quick and Professional

I was facing several points in my license and was very Intimidated by the whole process as it was my first experience using a lawyer for this. She was very helpful and effective and I received a judgement as good or better than what she had me expecting!

If you need the fastest, best, most reliable, dedicated and winning attorney immediately, call Amy.

I recently came into very serious legal trouble earlier this year. Just like many of you reading this, I never had any serious legal matters in my life. Overnight, because of a terrible mistake any of us could have made, my life changed overnight. It could happen to any of us. All of sudden, I found ...myself arrested: cuffed, photographed, and fingerprinted. I was horrified and instantly, I panicked. Then, I immediately thought of Amy. Amy had been my lawyer a few months ago on another legal manner (non-misdemeanor, non-criminal charges) where ALL of my 9 traffic charges were dropped! Dismissed. Completely. It was all because of Amy and her ability as an attorney. My life, as I knew it, and wanted to keep intact, was saved by her. Her skill, her knowledge, her tenacity, her availability, her respect for her clients, for other counselors, and her steadfast commitment, make her one of the strongest attorneys around. Regarding this latest, serious incident, as I said, without hesitation, I called Amy. First, as usual, she assured me and talked to me at length. Afterward, rapid-fire communication ensued between her and I, and opposing counsel. Finally, she made a phone call or two and I was cleared once again, given a slight slap on the wrist! None of my horrible fears came true, but would have had it not been for Amy. I am no longer considered a criminal, within a matter of a month! All of the above is true and happened within the last few months. Amy is at the top of her game. If you seriously need quick, winning results, call Amy. She will get right back to you.

Unlicensed Operator/Speeding

Charges were reduced. Walked away with my licence and with just having to pay the ticket fees.

Great results

I had received 2 traffic violations and felt that there was reason to be concerned with my results. I reached out to Amy and right from the begining she made it seemless. Amy was accomodating to my schedule. Amy was able to speak to the DA and negotiate my violations with a great result.

Amy for Student

I got 4 tickets at the same time! and was going way too FAST. My car got towed, and I got handcuffed! I was in a terrible position for the incident since I'm a foreigner and student in college. I called Amy, and she was tremendously helpful. She really helped me to get through this and made the best ...result out of this difficult situation. The lady from the DA's office wasn't willing to let me off easily and my violation looked heavy on paper, without Amy's help, it could turn out completely down hill. So I strongly suggest Amy if you are in need for a wonderful lawyer, specially students! Don't let the law beat you!
