I received multiple tickets when I traveled to work in Malta, New York. Needless to say, I was extremely scared. I am so grateful to have Mr. Luhn representing me. Mr. Luhn helped reducing my fines significantly. Mr. Luhn even personally delivered my papers to the Court on his way to a meeting. I wish my colleagues do not get any traffic ticket when they travel to Malta. But if they do, I would highly recommend them to contact Mr. Luhn.

I've talked to two separate lawyers, for different needs, as well as Courtney. All of them have been fantastic! They have been super flexible about my crazy work schedule (front line nurse).
I highly recommend their company, for any needs you may have!

We were left with a very bad taste in our mouths after working with this law firm. Things were always left up to the last minute by them when we were in the process of buying our house. Also, the attorney never directly contacted our realtor. All contact with us and our attorney was through the paralegal. Our realtor said he was pretty shocked that the he never was contacted by the attorney, and the realtor said this had never happened before through all his realty experience. We were left frustrated and stressed the day of the closing, as we were not told until less than 24 hours before closing that a bank check was required. My husband spoke to the paralegal, and she said she has been yelled at many times right before closings because details are often given last minute--just like with us. If something keeps happening that produces a poor experience for your client, you should change the way you operate. We are just glad to be done with this company.
