As a CDL driver, having a ticket on my record could have affected my livelihood, so this result meant a lot to me. Kelly was professional, responsive, and made the whole process easy. I'm very grateful for the outcome and would definitely recommend her and DDT Law Group.”

Just to add to the previous comment I had a second guess assessed by them and again they did a wonderful job in getting the best possible outcome.”

He approached my case with a deep understanding of the law, combined with genuine care and patience. Throughout the process, he took the time to explain details clearly, ensuring I felt informed and confident every step of the way. His team is equally impressive. Maria and Attorney Kelly Moore stand out for their excellent communication and responsiveness. They were always accessible, quick to provide updates, and willing to answer any questions with clarity and professionalism. Their attention to detail and dedication made a challenging process feel much more manageable. Overall, the entire team demonstrates a high level of professionalism and commitment to client care. If you’re looking for legal representation that combines expertise with compassion and outstanding support, Gerard Igoe and his team are an excellent choice.”

24 de diciembre de 2025“The overall experience with DDT was positive, as the attorneys handled my case professionally and it came to the desired conclusion. I spoke with an attorney named Jared (unsure of last name) the day prior to my court hearing to discuss the process and address any questions, but attorney Kelly Moore provided me with the status update after the hearing was completed. Jared was helpful in addressing my questions, and both Jared and Kelly were professional in their communications. Maria Torres was my intake contact, and Jan Demaala was my case manager, and both were supportive during our discussions. The only recommendation I would have is to manage client expectations regarding communications during the process. In my case, after the intake discussion and signing of paperwork, we had ~5 weeks until my hearing date. I spoke to my case manager one time, received one text update with guidance regarding the attorney handling the court appearance, and had one phone discussion with the attorney. I understand that it is a large firm with many cases to handle, and it is the holiday season, but I was initially advised that I would have weekly contact with the case manager. For my case it was fine (and I honestly would not want to receive 10 calls/texts with no material information), but I could imagine clients with more complex cases might need the expected weekly check-ins. Thanks to DDT for all of your help, and happy holidays!”

25 de noviembre de 2025“Dear DDT, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Moore & Mrs. Buck for their excellent service. They kept me well informed throughout the entire process. Their understanding of statutes, proper procedures that should have taken place during the incident, and their overall legal prowess was simply exemplary. I also wanted to mention Angela, my case manager, who kept me up-to-date regarding my court dates and what to expect every step of the way. I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal representation. Sincerely, -Amish P.”
