View On GoogleUnderstanding the New Jersey Points Schedule
Receiving a ticket while trying to navigate the traffic in East Brunswick, Wall, and Freehold New Jersey is a common problem. Tickets from moving violations add points to your driving record and the severity of the violation dictates how many points you receive on your driving record. Points can range from two points for failure to observe a stop sign, to eight points for leaving the scene of an accident with a personal injury. These can add up quickly, especially for clients with multiple traffic tickets.
A growing point tally leads to higher insurance rates. Accrue enough points and you can lose your driver's license. If you earn your living with a commercial driver's license (CDL), too many traffic tickets can be a career-killer. It is important to find a lawyer who can help you keep your CDL so you can keep your job.

Amazing experience. I had 16 points on 5 tickets but Mr Jeffrey got 3 tickets dismissed and one reduced and walked out of the court with 2 points. I would recommend him to everyone because he know his stuff as he was prosecutor himself too and he is very genuine in prices as well.
