I highly recommend Azria & Bruffett Law Firm for their professional service handling traffic tickets. I got my first speeding ticket in October 2021 after driving in US for 8 years. Since I never had an experience dealing with traffic ticket before, I have no clue how to proceed the next steps. After asking for opinions from friends, I decided to ask for professional help because speeding ticket highly depends on states and there is no universal answer. After reading other people's review about Azria & Bruffett Law Firm, I decided to use their service to handle my case. I followed their step by step protocol to provide information and the firm would work with clients swiftly and closely and negotiate best interest. Most importantly, they are highly responsive and will proactively give updates. In summary, I start having a piece of mind since the moment I signed the contract. They charge a reasonable price for my case and I am very happy that my ticket got dismissed after 2 months

Azria & Bruffett did a very professional and effective job of dealing with my (out of state) speeding ticket in upstate NY. I was going 75 in a 65 which means multiple points along with a hefty fine. Ralph Habib was able to reduce the magnitude of my ticket down to a no points, non-moving violation. The paralegal Monica coordinated all of the communications and made it a very easy process for me. Fees were reasonable and competitive with other firms I shopped around at. I would recommend them to anyone else facing ticket issues as well.
