Julie M. Healy

I received a ticket in a speed trap in OOB, Maine on local roads. Coming from Massachusetts I knew that the fine itself was a minor issue and that if convicted, the points for the next six years would cost me substantial money. I searched for an attorney on line and called several. Peter Cyr's office..., in Portland, ME was the only office where an attorney and not an assistant would talk to me. I hired Peter and he turned the case over to his colleague, Julie Healy. Julie was outstanding in her communications to me keeping me up to date on every transaction and issue. She represented me in court and prior to the actual hearing was able to negotiate with the police officer such that the case would be "filed" which essentially means dismissed, assuming I do not get another traffic violation in the next six months. I did have to pay a filing fee equal to the original ticket. I would highly recommend Julie Healy to anyone who chooses to contest a traffic ticket. She was professional, personable, and took my case seriously even though it was not a criminal issue. One point to be aware, the fee to this law office was high in my opinion ($ 800) but this was in line with all the other law offices in the area that I called. Still, Having had a similar situation about 10 years ago in Colorodo, and still being a MA resident, I only paid $ 250 then.

My specific situation required a last minute highly important request. I'm in the medical industry which requires 24/7 on call responsibilities which led to a nearly impossible situation for a court date hearing. I placed several calls to various firms after hours in hopes of getting the court date p...ushed back. I kept receiving voicemail after voicemail until I called Julie. Thankfully she out-works her colleagues and personally answered the phone. She had one single day to prepare the proper documentation for me. Instead of filing an extension, she spent countless hours working with and for me to represent me in court. Most lawyers would have taken the easy more lucrative road and file the extension. This would have easily doubled the cost for me since additional time and resources would have been needed. I can't thank Julie enough for not only taking this case last minute, but recommending that she could take this hearing head on and win in court. She will always be my first call moving forward. If you're looking for a highly intelligent straight shooter with a high degree of integrity, then Julie is the perfect match for you.
