One of the best lawyers you’ll ever work with .
Aiello Harris

I had called and had consultations with other attorneys before landing on james lankford. I couldn’t be happier that I did.From day 1 his professionalism, experience, and most importantly his genuine down to earth demeanor had me confident that he was the right attorney to represent me in a situation that nobody wants to be in. And day of sentencing the best possible outcome in my situation was achieved. Probation with no jail time!! From my family and myself thank you, James lankford and the aeillo and harris firm for giving me the best legal representation I could have asked for.

My son got into trouble with the law and we hired Aiello Harris twice. We were very lucky to work with Jim Lankford during this very difficult time. Jim was able to explain every detail about the law that pertained to my son’s case, what the process was and what the possible outcomes could be. We were able to talk to him many many times about our concerns even after hours. He went above and beyond his role as our lawyer. Jim is a very competent, professional and caring lawyer. If your or someone you know finds themselves in trouble with the law you need to hire Aiello Harris and get Jim Lankford as your lawyer.!

I had ‘bad’ representation in a previous traffic case with some other office and when I got into a car accident I started looking for a new office. I noted the office of Aiello and Harris was highly ranked in a list I bumped on and I thought I ‘d give them a try and I was glad I did. I had James Lankford by my side in the court. James assessed the case, weighted the strategy and delivered the expected..Thereafter I asked James to represent my son on another case and it was again “smooth sailing’. James takes personal interest in the case as if it was his own family on trial, and brings that human element out in the court processes. We all wish that we don’t have the need of representation but if needed it is good to know that this office is there and ready to help. Thank you James.

I’m amazed.Totally relieved .You restored my faith in the legal profession . You kept me out of jail by getting my third dui charges dismissed . Instead of license loss of minimally 8-10 years plus jail , You negotiated for a careless driving and 3 weeks loss of license. I’m so grateful. Gerry Burder 9144909446. Thanks Jim Langford esq. Great job. Thanks Ally for taking my calls and calming me down.

If I could give .more stars, I would most definitely do it This law firm is AMAZING! Chris Aiello is a kind, compassionate individual who took my case immediately and navigated me through the whole process.

I would 100% recommend Chris and his team to help in a case. My case went from a criminal charge to a dismissal. Absolutely an amazing team including Genesis and Yanira who kept me updated on the additional legal information. I highly recommend Chris and his group. Thanks again Chris for everything! You are an amazing man and a caring, humbled Individual.

James C. Lankford, Esq. helped me out tremendously. Because of him I still have my drivers license with no points. This firm was worth the money!!! Thank you!!!

One of the best lawyers you’ll ever work with .
Aiello, Harris, Abate

As someone who was simply petrified & nearly hopeless in what my future might have held, I was not only treated with respect but also comforted in my darkest hours. Not only did I receive the best possible outcome, but even better results than I dared hope for. There is no better option out there! I cannot recommend James Lankford, Esq. highly enough!!! TEN stars out of five !

While working with Chris, I got the best possible outcome for my case, all charges dismissed. My experience while working with Chris was very pleasurable and highly professional..

I worked with Aiello, Harris, Abate law firm for dealing with the traffic court. I originally talked to Christopher Harris who was very professional. He handed over the responsibilities to James Lankford. It was very helpful to have the lawyers involved, because we had a big snow storm shutting the state down on the day of my first court date.

Ultimately, Mr. Lankford was able to negotiate a deal in which I did not have to show up for the court, even online, and everything could be resolved remotely. I thank him for being in touch with me throughout via texts and phone calls and guiding me through this process. In addition, their legal assistant Yanira Castaneda and other staff from the office were very friendly and helpful. I recommend this firm strongly!

I recently had the opportunity to utilize their services due to a Handheld Device Violation. This was my first offense and I was very worried about the process and how it would affect my driving record. James Lankford represented me and guided me through the process beautifully putting my worries to rest. I highly recommend Mr. Lankford and this law firm!!

IT WAS A PLEASURE WORKING WTIH CHRISTOPHER AIELLO. THANKS FOR HELPING ME GET A NO-POINT TICKET!

We worked with Aiello, Harris, Abate, James Lankford specifically, on a difficult drug court case involving a family member facing felony charges last year. James demonstrated thorough knowledge of the process and was an excellent partner throughout the ordeal.

Our family is very grateful to the firm and James. Our family member will be coming up on his first year of sobriety and success in the NJ Drug Court thanks, in large part, to James’ effort, and of course the willingness of our family member to get clean..

Very grateful,

ET Conroy

I recently was represented by James Lankford. He did a wonderful job in handling my case. Very professional. I would highly recommend him.

Mr. James Lankford was phenomenal, his 20+ years as a prosecutor allowed him to get me the best deal possible. No points in my license and payed less than $100 for the ticket. He is thorough and does his best for his clients. Thank you again.

Chris and his team was excellent. The professionalism that was displayed was refreshing. Most lawyers just want to get the process over with. Chris brought the humanity into the process. Through each step was through in what to expect and what the outcome was look like. He truly was able to put my nerve’s to ease and get the best outcome possible. I HIGHLY recommend Chris and his team. I really want to say thank you.

He was very accessible and the professionalism was beyond. He went above and beyond to get me the best possible outcome. He was able to reduce my charges, and then on top of that I got off with a mere fine.

My son got into trouble with the law in New Jersey. We used Aiello, Harris, Abate two times and were lucky enough to get Jim Lankford assign to his case. Jim was able to explain the legal system to me, the procedures and consequences.
He was available to talk to me over the phone, even after office hours , if we had something important to discuss, or if I was just totally panic stricken.
Jim is proficient, professional, knowledgeable and provided me with the personal attention that I needed.
Jim goes above and beyond what is expected.

I recently got out of zoom court and was given the best deal by the prosecutor due to the best lawyers. Thy were all really great nd big help. Worth every penny. Thank you so much guys

When I contacted the Aiello, Harris, Abate Law Firm I did so with minimum information on hand. My paper had been misplaced some time ago. However, this did not deter Mr. Lankford. He worked with me every step of the way to resolve my legal matter. He took on homework that would not have been needed had I’d still had all the initial paperwork and he did so without a qualm. Additionally, they are reasonably priced and understand the impact of financial constraints; especially in light of current events. If you are looking for a lawyer for most any matter I highly recommend looking in Aiello, Harris, Abate.

Mr. Aiello was a wonderful advocate for my son as he faced some serious driving charges. The results of our case were better than we could have hoped for. I felt confident that my son was in good hands, and was proven correct. Without the expertise and experience of Mr. Aiello, things may have been much more difficult for us, but the end result was fair and positive. Thank you for your work on our behalf.

THESE ARE THE PROFESSIONALS YOU WILL NEED ON YOUR SIDE! I was in an extremely sensitive situation that could have implications to my immigration statues where I was extremely worried and there seem to be no way out, BUT James Lankford crossed all his T doted ALL his i and made all charges drop within the first 3 minutes of my court date. He was amazing, and not just that its the fact that he cared enough to make sure he found all the possible avenues to make sure there was a way out for me. I can’t thank him and his law firm enough CARING. EXPERTS!!!!!

I was facing losing my license and possibly jail time. Mr. Chris Aiello got me out of a sticky situation. He was very kind and professional to me. He gave me a sigh of relief. I would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you so much.

Mr. Aiello helped me tremendously with my case. Every charge was dismissed with the exception of one. It savede thousands of dollars as well as lengthy driving revocations. I was expecting the worse outcome to be 2 years and it was reduced to 3 months. I would strongly recommend him and his firm if you need any help.

I would like to thank Mr. Aiello for the outstanding help he has given me and helped me throughout the entire process. I would recommend him to anybody searching for an amazing attorney!

Chris was without a doubt the most excellent laywer I’ve ever had the pleasure of representing me! I would recommend them to anyone!!

In the last six months, I’ve had to use James Lankford’s legal services on three occasions. I was amazed at his competence, professionalism and personal attention. He went beyond the call of duty to resolve my my legal matters successfully. He was always available and gave me the support and confidence to guide me through this difficult period. I would highly recommend him to anyone. I am so grateful that attorneys like him still practice.

Can’t Say Thank you enough for Jim Lankford and all his assistance getting the case dropped and the best possible outcome for both me and my husband.
Thanks
Cheryl

Can not thank this team enough for what they handled for me, especially James Lankford for dismissing 2 life altering charges, being patient with my questions & answering them thoroughly, and keeping me informed about any changes or new information involving my case all while displaying exemplary professionalism.

I was represented by Jim Lankford expecting to lose my license. He was incredibly patient with me and was helpful with every question I asked him. After almost a year of delays by the PD and court Mr. Lankford worked with the prosecutor to make sure I kept my license when I was totally beyond hope that was even a possibility. I am beyond happy with the results I got from this firm and the way I was treated and would recommend you guys to anyone!

He was prompt, professional, explained everything thoroughly, and brought the ticket down to an unsafe driving with non points. I am very pleased with his services and highly recommend his services.

Aiello and Harris came recommended to me by a family friend.

I met with Chris Aiello and explained my situation. Chris took the time to listen, He explained the process, what I could expect. As a veteran who with disabilities, Chris understood my stress and assured me that he and the firm would be with me through the complete case.

My experience with this firm is completely positive and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs the best in class legal representation.

I have been working with Mr. Aiello for the last 6 months. He was extremely professional and was able to answer any and all questions I had pertaining to my case. My case was dismissed thanks to all his hard work. I would recommend this firm to anyone looking for a good lawyer! Thank you for all your help!

Just finished up with a case that could have had a huge impact on my future. My lawyer Chris Aiello did an amazing job in defending me. He kept me up to date on any changes made in my case and was very nice. In the end my charges were dismissed thanks to him being on top of everything. I have honestly never met a better lawyer than him. I would suggest using his law firm for your case. Thank you Chris.

Great law firm excellent service, I would recommend this Christopher Aiello anyone who’s looking to be represented by a great Atorney.

Best team of lawyers around took care of all my legal issues with minimal consequences. Got me out of alot of trouble

James C Lankford Esq is very proficient professional. He demonstrated highest degree of empathy and made me feel very comfortable when he represented me successfully. If there was more than 5 stars, I would have marked that. Thanks for all your help sir. Hire him and you will be glad you did.

These guys were my saviors. Chris Aiello spent hours in discussing my case to the smallest detail. He introduced me to the attorney assigned to my case, Anthony Alfano. Both were professional, knowledgable and compassionate. I felt secure from day one that I would have a positive outcome. My 3 charges got dismissed 100% after 1 month and only 2 court appearances, which my previous incompetent lawyer was unable to do after 6 months. Thank you to Chris and Anthony, you saved my life, career, and character. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an outstanding criminal attorney.”

Jim Landford referred me to the firm and I had a very professional and pleasant experience dealing with Chris Aiello. Chris answered any questions I had and handled everything. Would highly recommend”

I just want to take the time and thank Christopher one more time for the work he did, for taking the time and walking through this rough path with me. It was not easy but his knowledge and professionalism put my doubts to rest. The results were nothing less than expected and I can’t thank you enough for that. Thank you again for your help. JR”

Perfect service Worth every dollar I invested. This firm has saved my life in so many ways. I’m so happy with the time and work this team has put into my case. Honestly this firm is the only firm to work with. Pay the money up front no payment plan. Make sure you email and pick up the phone Be honest and on time. Give all the facts that has to do with your case. Again this is the only firm to work with Thanks again guys awesome work.”

I am very impressed with, and greatful for the professionalism of James Lankford and Chris A. I felt great support during the process and they helped us obtain the most favorable outcome possible in our case

Christopher Aiello handled my case perfectly. He communicated with me from the time we hired the firm through every step of the process. He is incredibly knowledgeable, and explained all aspects of my case, the charges against me, and our legal options. He was able to postpone the court date multiple times so it would not interfere with my seasonal work. He was able to get a plea deal for a seldom used lesser charge by recognizing the specific details of my case that applied to that charge. In summary, Christopher Aiello was there to represent me for a potentially serious charge and produced an outcome that was better than I could have imagined.”

Mr. Aiello handled a motor vehicle case for my son. On our first call with him he understood the situation and provided analysis, options and immediate advice on how to proceed. He supported us with information during the period leading to the trial date and he prepared us for what would happen in court. His experience in such cases allowed him to negotiate a lessor charge and prevent revocation of license. I found the firm on the web – – next time I need an attorney I won’t need to look any further. Thank you Christopher for your counsel!”

I worked with James Lankford for a traffic court situation. At the time I had a lot of things going on personally and put my trust in his guidance. Not only did he accomplish exactly what we discussed but I felt very comfortable with the professionalism of the whole process. I will be going back to this law firm for other matters in the future.”

James Lankford has provided excellent service. I would highly recommend him”

Fantastic Firm and absolute pleasure to work with! Chris has worked with me several times and in his place today, sent Jim Lankford. Jim was awesome and he worked so hard along with the firm to fight for what was important to me. I would always come to this firm for any of my needs and will recommend to family and friends alike. Great people great firm that get results. Very important to get a well respected and trusted firm such as this. Thank you so very much.”
