Without exaggeration, the result Glenn Bruno achieved on my speeding ticket case was nothing short of phenomenal. Glenn surpassed my expectations, and I am greatly appreciative. If you are picked off for a moving violation in New York's Hudson Valley, beware of those who overpromise and underdeliver... and there are many. Glenn is your guy.

Glenn and his team are wonderful. Super easy to work with and very considerate of concerns. We got the best possible results. 2 speeding tickets within 6 months looking at 8 points and who know how many dollars. Got the 2nd ticket changed to "parking too close to a fire hydrant" - amazing!

I'm not somebody who's easily impressed, but I am definitely impressed with Glenn Bruno and his office! I got a speeding ticket on the Taconic and unfortunately just hit the six point penalty speed limit. I literally pulled over at the next gas station, did some Google research and found Glenn Bruno who had great reviews. By the time I hit the next gas station, he and his wonderful assistants had already spoken to me by phone and walked me through everything that needed to be done. His fees were extremely reasonable and within a few days, he had filed all of my paperwork with the court and we were ready to go. He kept me posted on exactly what I would need to expect and set very realistic expectations on what he could achieve? and then he achieved way more than he said he would. I went from a six point speeding ticket which not only would've cost me a fortune but would have affected my insurance down to a fairly minor ticket with no points. The state of New York is tricky. It's probably the only state where I would suggest that you always contact an attorney if you get a traffic ticket. The reality is that doing so will get you better outcomes and you will probably spend less money in the end then if you had just paid the ticket or tried to defend it on your own. It is my plan to drive exactly the speed limit on that curvy, windy, hilly road in the future, so I hope I don't ever need to hire Glenn Bruno again. But God forbid I ever get another ticket, I know just who I will be contacting- Glenn Bruno had just been entered into my contact list so that I can reach him on speed dial if need be.

I would absolutely use him again if needed and recommend him readily to anyone needing a trustworthy lawyer who will fight for you.

My name is Craig (last name withheld). I have worked with a number of lawyers in my adult years (I am currently 54 years old) in matters ranging from real-estate to civil to finance to in this case traffic/vehicle related. Glenn was super professional from start to finish. He is clearly an expert in vehicle related law and in my view, the law period. He exceeded expectations for me. Glenn did an outstanding job . He educated me on my situation , reviewed my options , and then did a super job completing my case with the very minimal effects on me.

I had some pretty serious driving violations that accumulated during the COVID ; I had misdemeanors in new paltz - Poughkeepsie & pleasant valley. I was border-lining a felony . Bruno helped break all the charges down to parking tickets, no points on my license and I did not lose my license . I was given a restricted license with none the probation stipulations . I don?t have to report to anyone or attend any programs , I just have to keep my license clean and I can live with that deal. Thank you Bruno !

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
