Not only did Zahra Umansky get my charges dropped and expunged, she also kept me up to date with every part of the journey and answered all of my questions in a timely matter as if I was her number one priority. Even 2 years after completing expungement, I emailed her about certain questions I had and she would answer me in less than 30 minutes each time. She is beyond competent in my eyes.

We visited the Umansky Law firm when my daughter was having some issues as a teenager and we worked primarily with Zahra. She was so knowledgeable, very confident, had great recommendations and handled each meeting very professionally and compassionately. Our end result was very positive.

My case was opened 19 year ago with theft and burgerly charges I hired Umansky and they got me the best deal possible now 19 years later I hired them to get a early probation release the process was so simple they did everything and now I am finally after all these years free and i owe it to them. Thank you so much and they also contacted me to seal my case, I would have never thought to do this. They also treated me like I was to family which made me so much comfortable.

Leaving the scene of an accident without providing information case for my son who rear ended someone and actually did not leave the scene of the accident but drove to far down the street causing the charge. He also received a careless driving ticket. Our hopes were that the careless driving ticket would be combined in criminal court and get thrown out and that Zahra would be successful at getting his misdemeanor criminal offense reduced to a traffic infraction penalty since my son is only 19 and has no driving record or accidents.
Within a month Zahra did just that an then some. The prosecutor agreed to reduce the charge if we provided proof the claim of the other driver's vehicle damage had been paid in full and we supplied that. From there she informed us she would motion to move the trial date up and motion to have my son dismissed from having to appear.
Within I believe a week's time she contacted me back to let me know t was all set and that she would request the judge to therefore drop the careless driving citation since my son was pleading nolo contendre to the traffic infraction penalty with adjudication withheld. The judge agreed and we couldn't be happier with everything that she did for us so quickly.
Luckily for my son he was able to continue working during this time and walked away with just a $147 penalty to pay for everything. No points on his license, no traffic fine to pay, no criminal conviction at such a young age for this and not probation or any other things that go along with a conviction further disrupting his life.
Zahra was excellent and my son learned a valuable lesson and with very minimal posed against him.
Thank you very much Zahra Umansky, we appreciate everything you did and hope you have a very Happy New year.

I hired Zara. Whom I found through the internet. She was able to get my case dismissed. Couldn't have asked for any better results.

Last year I got into a cab under the influence of alcohol and was unable to pay my cab fare becaues I left my tab open at the bar. The cab driver rang the police and I was arrested and charged with a 3rd degree felony of renting a vehicle with the intent to defraud. Over a $30 cab fare. That I was unable to pay under that state of mind. I spent almost 2 full days in jail and felt like my life was falling apart.
My mother found The Umansky Law Firm online (after reading great reviews) and so we scheduled an appointment. I had reckless driving on my background, so we thought this would be a difficult case to fight. Mrs. Umansky was extremely professional, personable, poised, and confident, everything that you could want from a lawyer. She was honest and did not guarantee any results (as no lawyer should), however her and her staff told us to fill a few documents here and there, but that she would take care of the rest. Her services allowed me to continue with work, live my life, and move on from the incident. A year later (last week) the case has been dropped and my record has been expunged. Further, her husband provided very kind words that resonated with me and motivated me to get sober. Go in for a consultation, you won't regret it.

I have had the unique experience of being on both sides of a Zahra Umansky case. Years ago, when I worked as her legal assistant, I witnessed first hand the attention to detail and work ethic she applies to each case. When the time came for me to seek representation for myself, there was only one choice. Despite having previously worked for her, Zahra was still able to exceed my expectations for my case. She was able to get the prosecutor to drop my DUI down to a reckless driving and get me some very favorable conditions along with it. I would highly recommend Zahra Umansky and the entire Umansky Law Firm to anyone considering representation.
