Takes the time to explain things and willing to work around your schedule - especially important since I work late nights. I spoke with several lawyers before going with Carl and it worked out great. Was charged with PL 220.03 possession of a controlled substance in Manhattan - Carl was able to get m...e off with 1 day of community service on a Sunday and a concealed record.

Carl Spector is a superb 10 star lawyer. This was my 2nd DWI case, and I was nervous as "bleep"! Within a 5 year grace period I landed a DWI and a DUI charge. Considering that all these charges landed within a 5 year grace period, this made my case challenging! I was a mess with the unknown of potent...ial jail time and charges. My incident occurred in 2012 and was resolved in 2014. You are probably wondering that is a long time to resolve a case. But as Carl informed me "sometimes patience and time works in your favor", it sure DID! The end result was a reduction in my charges. My charges were reduced to a traffic infraction, and all my additional charges were vacated from my record. As a professional it was very important to maintain a non criminal record. The thought of loosing my career because of a DWI would have been devastating and embarrassing. In selecting Carl as my lawyer, the decision was very simple. Carl is a no B.S. kinda lawyer. Carl puts things into perspective and makes no promises. The only promise he makes is the dedication to work hard for you and to give you the best potential results. Mr. Spector is knowledgable within the courts, the court system, and the law. In addition, Mr. Spector was the only lawyer to meet me in person before selecting a lawyer. That was the icing on the cake. A DWI / DUI case is messy and nerve wrecking but Carl made the process less stressful. My best advise is to give him the full details of your case, listen to his advise, and let him take care of the rest. It was hard for me to understand that concept in the beginning. I was hoping for a quick answer and fix. With DWI cases there is no such thing. These types of cases are sensitive, emotional, and strategic. In my opinion Carl is the perfect blend of that. "Carl Spector, you rock"!

Carl Spector far exceeded my expectations representing me in a DUI case in NYC. He has years of experience on both sides of the law (as an Assistant District Attorney and Defense Attorney) which is very helpful when navigating through the court process. He is responsive via all forms of communicati...ons (e-mail, phone, etc.) and kept me up to date throughout the negotiations with the DA's office. He is very knowledgeable and quick thinking and I could not have been happier with the outcome of my case (The DA's office agreed to dismiss my case!) I highly recommend Carl to anybody in the NY/NJ area who is faced with a DUI/DWI charge. He has helped me regain control of my life and I am forever grateful.

Last year I was arrested on NYE at a DWI checkpoint, and for over a year my lawyer tried working with the DA’s office towards getting the charges reduced from an intoxicated charge (which carries a criminal record) to a charge of impaired. Unfortunately the DA’s office would not negotiate. Since I w...as only 21 at the time of my arrest, the decision was made to take my case to trial with the hope to achieve this. We hired Mr. Carl Spector to be a part of my legal team to help. Mr. Spector is an expert at challenging the validity and legality of DWI/DUI checkpoints. Mr. Spector was brilliant at my hearing and made the unbelievable happen. Because of his expertise, the judge hearing our case ruled that the checkpoint was improper, and all charges against me were dropped. He went above and beyond fighting for me, and I could not ask for a better lawyer. I am forever grateful to Mr. Spector for his work, and could not recommend a better lawyer for representation.

When I hired Carl Spector I was at my wit's end. The lawyer I'd retained before him had forgotten my first court date. Unbelievable. From the first conversation I had with Mr Spector through the completion of my case I had confidence I was finally in good hands. He made sure I understood every st...ep of the way, and fought hard to create the best possible outcome for me in a very serious situation. He also provided his very knowledgable, experienced and kind paralegal to walk me through every moment from the time I arrived at the courthouse until I left - even before and after it was time for Mr Spector to be there. They made a difficult time much easier for me. I highly recommend Carl Spector. He and his firm are the ultimate professional team. VERY effective!
