    "I had spent three years working hard for 0 points on my license, so the small investment in this firm for a good defense seemed a good idea."
    The interaction with the firm is a 10/10 with prompt, precise and on point responses. Obviously this firm knows how to navigate the court system and in my case it was a $$$$ saver for my speeding violation, saving me points and I am sure a few digits on my

    "David gave me the feeling that I was going to be well protected in my trumped up, ridiculously racist criminal charges against me."
    After talking to a couple of other area lawyers, this firm seemed more aggressive. I met with David Sachs at my first meeting and he gave me the feeling that I was going to be well protected in my trumped up, ridiculously racist criminal charges against me. Money well spent. David was fantastic. He was able to have my case dismissed by filing legal papers with a court appearance with testimony (not a trial). Judge agreed with his legal opinion and dismissed my case. I can't thank him enough. Also, on one court date lawyer Andrew Proto from the firm appeared on my case which was fine, because I did hire the firm, but what was exceptional about it was that he knew my case just as well as David. In my view, this firm is top notch.

    "She’s amazing!!!"
    Fenisha Williams handled my divorce and she did a phenomenal job! She was always reachable and most importantly always returned my calls. She’s very knowledgeable and was always trying to find the most reasonable solutions…Having her represent me definitely helped me calm down my anxieties. She’s amazing!!!
    - T.M.
    "Outstanding lawyers. I have worked with them twice and they know what they are doing."

    - Jason B.
    "Delivered the on the results!"

    - Patrick
    "Fantastic law firm from top to bottom."
    David and Keith were fantastic throughout my case. Their knowledge , thoroughness and compassion was outstanding. Going through a divorce with small children was the worst time in my life but I was able to get through it with their help. Keith was always fully prepared for court and always had me fully prepared no matter my emotional state. He was hard and focused when he needed to be and always listened to every detail big or small. I wouldn't be where I am today with 2 happy kids if it wasn't for all of the help and hard work from David and Keith.
    - Matthew B
    "Thank you for saving my driving record."
    Thank you for your excellent representation with respect to my ticket. I didn't have to go to court, you took care of everything and my record is clear. Thank you for saving my driving record.
    - Former Client
    "They are winners!"
    The law firm and partners handled my case like pros. You see my overall rating of these men. I'm an excitable man I guess it was better not to inform me about some things so I didn't act out at the time they wanted me to stay calm. Outstanding, you go lawyers.
