"We were up first and out first."Marty met me 15 minutes before court was due to start exactly as we agreed. He spoke to the prosecutor and as indicated in the title, cut the points on my two tickets from 8 to 2, reduced my fines by a third, and we were out of court in 45 minutes. Had they started on time it would have been only 30 minutes instead of the hours it might have been with all the people that showed up. We were up first and out first. I bet he was there quite a bit earlier than I was to accomplish this feat.Jeff

"It's a relief knowing they are on my side."
I am currently a client of Martin and his firm. They are a hard working firm and have been a pleasure to work with. I have spoken to several of them on the phone (sometimes on the weekend) and they have been nothing short of kind and generous. Their feedback and guidance thru emails and phone calls have been outstanding. It's a relief knowing they are on my side and doing everything they can to restore my driving privileges. Their attention to detail and enthusiasm in helping me is unlike no other firm I have dealt with. I would highly recommend them if you are in any sort of traffic violations.

"I would refer him to anyone, anytime for anything."I had 3 cell phone violations within 18 months, which by law subjects me to license suspension. Mr. Kron and I deferred our case 4 times which is the maximum. When we finally decided to plead me guilty, Mr. Kron did everything within his power to reason with the judge for leniency-and he succeeded!! I was found guilty, have to pay a fine, but will be able to keep on driving which is extremely important for me to maintain my lifestyle. Most importantly, during this process, I was a nervous wreck. Mr. Kron was immediate in his responses to my inquiries----almost replying to my texts before I hit send!! I cannot thank this man enough... I would refer him to anyone, anytime for anything. He did an absolutely wonderful job for me. One final thought. You know how you read about or see about everything else that works for other people but never works for you? This is a case where this guy was an angel and delivered me the best possible outcome. I am a very lucky man today because of Mr. Kron.Brian

"Excellent Service!"Once I called Mr. Kron's office, all of my issues were resolved. He took the time to review my case and recommend the best solutions for me; even from a financial perspective. I will recommend him to ANYONE who requests legal aid in his coverage area and will be calling him again if I find myself in another bind.Kevin

"So personable and nice."When I called the Firm I was very hesitant in even hiring an attorney but after speaking with the attorney I felt very comfortable in my decision in hiring an attorney. I had a reckless driving summons in NY and the attorney Lindsay Kron met me at court. She was so personable and nice. She was able to have my summons reduced to a no point no criminal violation with a minimal fine. This Firm is amazing and did a great job. I would definitely recommend them in the future.Rachel
