Mr. Azria was able to get my 8 points ticket down to 0 for "Parking/No standing Ticket" Mr. Azria is highly professional and handles everything for you. Before hiring his services, I spoke with Mr. Azria on the phone. He was extremely knowledgeable and explained all the factors I never thought about, which play a role in fighting to lower the ticket. I'm ecstatic about the phenomenal job Mr. Azria and his office did for me. I will 1000% recommend him. Thank you!!

Bruffett is the best and especially with Shanon. She guided me with everything and kept me updated. They helped me with many of my cases. Great outcome on ALL!! Thank you for everything.

Happy Client

I received a "move over" violation in August. After reading many on-line reviews, I contacted D. Bruffett. The paralegal, Shannon, was very helpful and friendly. I had a comprehensive call with D. Bruffett on the same day and he told me what the best outcome could be. Within 2 days, Shannon had gone over all the material I had sent and within a month an agreement was reached with the court as per David's original proposal. Am very happy with the service and efficiency...
