Testimonials:  Remember past performance does not guarantee furture results...

I had received a ticket while driving to work in  rockland county (Clarkstown Town Court).  The state trooper was writing up a ticket to some other driver and no sooner did i know that 4 exits later down the highway i was being pulled over for a speeding ticket that was called imprudent speed. Mr. Matisyahu Wolfberg was able to get the ticket dismissed from the court even before the trial date.  I am currently working with him on another ticket 81 in a 50 in the bronx, i hope to hear the same results.  He is a great guy and I felt very confident with him on my side."  Patrick P., Yonkers, NY
