Our firm has represented countless motorists and commercial truck drivers. Our experienced traffic ticket lawyers will fight the charges or negotiate a proper plea deal to reduce the charges, allowing you to keep your driving privileges and keep points from being placed on your record.

-
Gave them all necessary info about my case using their website. Andrew contacted me to discuss and followed through 100% on everything he said. I did not have to personally appear in court. Andrew handled everything for me with the Traffic Court judge. Ticket I had was reduced to a small fine and no points on my license keeping my record clean and avoiding possible increased car insurance cost. Will recommend Andrew and his firm to any family members & friends in need of legal council.- Leonard M.
-
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.- Former Client

Andrew Proto helped me on two traffic violation tickets. One was reduced from 6 points to 2 and the other one was dismissed. Overall, I am satisfied with his services. I’ve used three different lawyers before an he is the best so far.- Jimmy T.
-
Andrew Proto is the best!! He helped me on my DWI case in Harrison New York so much. All the other lawyers I spoke to were doom and gloom. Andrew told me everything I needed to know about my case and was very aggressive against the DA. I was so comfortable in court with him. The best part was anytime I needed to speak with him he was available and always offered to answer my questions even on weekends. Thanks to him and his office for the help!!!- Former Client
-
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
-
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
-
Both, David Sachs and Andrew Proto demonstrated strong character, punctuality, support and constantly searching for all options to win my both cases, and they made it possible.- Adela L.
