"I can't recommend John Molony highly enough! My son received a speeding ticket while we were on vacation. We were incredibly stressed, but from our very first conversation, he put me at ease. John was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced in handling these types of cases. John even knew the ramifications the ticket would have should it follow him “across state lines” as the traffic laws can vary from state to state. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, the charge was dismissed. Throughout the process, he kept me informed, answered all of my questions quickly, and fought hard for the best possible outcome. If you're dealing with a traffic offense, this is the attorney you want in your corner. Absolutely worth it!"
