Peter H Lederman

I ran into some trouble, no pun intended. I was facing very serious consequences. The first thing I did, was, of course, to do on line searches based on my case. Several firms, and names came up that specialized in this particular field of DUI/DWI. I proceeded to call the different suggestions ba...sed on the online reviews. When I called Mr. Lederman’s office, I had a feeling my search was over. Immediately, his staff was courteous and professional but above all empathetic. I was told Mr. Lederman would call me back that same day. Within an hour, I had the “call.” That call, actually really changed my life. More than just handling the legal aspects of my case, I sensed that Mr. Lederman was about more. He was about arriving at the root cause and addressing how to resolve the matter at the core. He made me realize that I had to take ownership of the issue and to come up with a plan on how to go forward. It is this, that was key in my defense. He was then able to easily demonstrate to the justice system, that while yes, I had erred, I did enact a plan to not only change the behavior but to ensure the safety and wellbeing of others. In person, his care and demeanor were simply magnified with his quirky sense of humor. He is a very astute man and very capable in his field. He views the issue at hand and devises winning strategies. In a sense, you become a team member and he coaches you on how to enact the appropriate change. Because of his extensive expertise and experience he is well connected with the right group of people who also are able to view the situation and further the actions towards successful outcomes. I was referred to people he has worked with in the past. At first, of course, one may think, this is just a ploy to get more money out of you. It isn’t. Everything that was recommended was with and for good reasons. I faced 4 years’ loss of driving privileges at the very least. I did end up with just a 6 month suspension. After all, I did have to take responsibility for my actions. But the process helped me. His way was the right way. He is worth every penny. I’ve had to hire a lawyer in a previous similar case. I only wish I had done as much research as I did this time. Had I had Mr. Lederman in that instance, I probably wouldn’t have had this second experience. Old adage truly applies, you get what you pay for in life. Thank you Mr. Lederman, Jessica and the rest of the team. Awesome ethic!

Thanks to Mr. Lederman and to the reviews on Avvo for helping me choose him as my lawyer. I was facing my 2nd DUI in 2 years! I was terrified and pretty much had given up hope. Mr. Lederman was very thorough and covered every basis. His guidance, advice, professionalism, and experience helped me get ...a reduced sentence. Even thought the police officer that issued the ticket didn't want to reduce the violation Mr. Lederman was able to convince him otherwise. I ended up receiving a wreckless driving charge and license suspension of 90 days. He's the best at what he does and if you have a DUI he is the only option.

Mr.Lederman is by far one of the greatest lawyers I've ever met. I was in a car accident facing my 3 dwi and jail time and Mr.Lederman got them to reduce all my charges down to a reckless driving offense with a 90 day suspension. He is by far the best. I am really satisfied with his services and I wo...uld gladly recommend his services to anyone in this kind of situation. Thank you again for your great work.

I received a 3rd DUI charge..facing a 10 yr license suspension..& jail time....he got it reduced to 90 day suspension & wreckless driving..I was amazed Peter Lederman covered all avenues in assisting me..He's excellent at what he does..If you've been convicted of a DUI in NJ..your best bet is to look... up Peter H.Lederman..He's your best option..& He's the best

I hired Mr. Lederman to represent me for a DWI, Reckless Driving, and Underage DUI charges. He worked with my parents and I to give us a great understanding of what was going on and what to expect. He was extremely thorough with the discovery and walked us through every page of the information that h...e received. He highlighted the important sections that would be key in making a strong case on my behalf. This is not an easy experience and is very stressful on the one being charged and his or her loved ones. He was very understanding of my parents and was very nice to my mother when she was upset or did not understand what he was talking about. In the end he was able to get the blood results thrown out, which led to the prosecutor dropping all the severe charges. While in court the judge attempted to sneak hidden charges and certain information that should have been suppressed but was not. He immediately identified this and fought back instantly winning on my behalf. Ultimately, I ended up with: loss of license for 90 days, $33 in court charges, 12 hours of alcohol counseling, and 20 day of community service. I would suggest that anyone who can afford this level of representation to do so because you do not want to end up with a DWI conviction. Mr. Lederman will do everything within his power to make sure this does not happen.
