Peter H Lederman

I was referred to Mr. Lederman and his team by a friend who found himself in a similar predicament. I had just started my career at a hospital and a month later I found myself in this mess. I can not even begin to explain the amount of stress this entire ordeal has caused me. The thought of losing my... job, and the implications that a DUI could have in regards to traveling abroad had me in shambles. However, Mr. Lederman, Jessica, and Noreen were extremely diligent with my case and did not let let even one thing slip by. Mr. Lederman is not only an AMAZING lawyer, but such a good person. He understands everything his clients are going through and does everything he can to defend them. However, he does not mince words, and he will give you everything straight up but believe me when I say he comes prepared for war in that courtroom. A year and a half and a half a dozen court dates later, I was able to walk away with a careless driving charge and $300 fine. I now have a second chance to learn from my mistakes. If you are looking for representation, stop right now and call this man.

I was facing a tough DUI case and going into it I didn’t see a light at the end of the tunnel. This wasn’t my first DUI but it WILL be my last. I was facing a possible 3rd DUI. I was initially working with another attorney and didn’t feel that he was handling my case appropriately. After doing res...earch, I ran across Peter Lederman’s profile and read all the positive reviews and decided to give him a call. After my first meeting with Peter, I really felt the passion he has for his job and that he really does care about his clients. He DOES NOT want you to drink and drive again and he makes that very clear. He talks to you with respect but does expect a lot from you. You are the only one that put yourself in this predicament, never lose sight of that. I know I haven’t. After seven months my case was finally settled. Initially the outcome was hard to take mentally but after I was able to go home and really think about the verdict and what charges I had really been facing, I was lucky to have found Peter and was able to have him represent me. He got me the best possible outcome. Peter will work hard for you and you will have to work hard for him in return and for yourself really. Do the work (AA meetings, one-on-one counseling (thank you Lisa) and Peter will work hard to get you the best possible outcome. Peter doesn’t guarantee anything other than he will represent you to the best of his ability. Thank you so very much Peter for your dedication to my case and for your personal advice. I’d also like to thank Peter’s assistance Jessica (his right hand). Thank you for always making yourself available for any questions or concerns I might have had. Thank you so much for being so responsive and kind. I do not wish a DUI on anyone but If you find yourself facing a DUI in New Jersey, I wouldn’t consider any other attorney than Peter Lederman.

When I first received my DWI, I was terrified, I thought I would lose my license, job, and overall, my humility. The weekend after I was arrested, I met with Peter that Monday afternoon, after doing as much research as I could over the weekend, looking for the best DWI lawyers in NJ. Peter's name cam...e up, and his reviews, while at first glance might not seem like they are real, are in fact real. I can personally attest to this fact. Peter Lederman is the best DWI lawyer in NJ. During the first meeting, I was given the assurance that he would work to get the best possible outcome in my case, and ultimately, I did. Throughout the process, Peter was always reachable, and his office is excellent to work with. Also, Peter is very stern in terms of what he demands from his clients, and I now realize the importance of the things he asks you to do. Additionally, I was a little disappointed towards the end of the whole process in regards to what the outcome would turn out to be, but I now realize that this was the best possible outcome in my case, and I cannot be any more grateful than I am now for having retained Peter as my attorney. I was able to go from a 2nd tier DWI, with stiff penalties, high BAC, and irrefutable evidence against me, to a tier one DWI with a 3-month suspension, with no BAC on record. This entire experience was life changing, and Peter not only made it bearable, but also guided me towards a path where I can remain standing at the end of the day, and continue living my life. Do not make the mistake of drinking and driving; call a friend, Uber, taxi, or whatever else, but please do not drink and drive. And, if you make do make the mistake, like I did, then make sure your first phone call is to a loved one telling them how sorry you are, and admitting your mistake, and the second one to the best DWI attorney in NJ, Peter Lederman.

I would like to be 100% transparent. Mr. Lederman is a special person to me. My father and I hired Mr. Lederman after a freak accident in June of 2012. Wasn't my first go around with drinking and driving. Just so happened to be one of the best decisions, I've ever made. Mr. Lederman advised me both p...ersonally and professionally, on what to do and how to do it. It was one of the toughest time peroids of my life. I remember going to work (selling radio advertising), having to hit monthly goals while management inquired about my constant court status and knowing that at some point the walls would come crashing down. It was a lot to handle. Mr. Lederman (Jess, Eva) made themselves available to me whenever I needed. Throughout the hearings, Mr. Lederman would make comments and say, "I know what you're going through is difficult. I can't talk from personal experience, but keep working hard" or "You need to apply yourself like you are and keep making responsible decisions everyday... Not just because your going to court." Mr. Lederman isn't just an attorney. Mr. Lederman is a family man, who has sheer interest in wanting his clients (me) to make responsible decisions. He holds you accountable throughout the entirety of the process. Not a day goes by I don't think about how he would push me through the hardest battle of my life. After five years (5/11/2017), I called Mr. Lederman and thanked him for making me a better person. In a time of my life where I was fear ridden (before my DWI and self medicating) to make career moves and move to NYC, Mr. Lederman found a way to dig deep and make me whole. I will never forget Mr. Lederman's last words after walking out of court. Mr. Lederman put one hand on my shoulder and said, "Son, I hope you have learned how tough you are through this experience. It's not easy and nor should it be. You made an irresponsible decision and will be accountable for it. That aside, I want you to know that the only thing you lost was time. It's up to you from this point on, to determine where you go from here. You can do anything in this world if you just believe in yourself!" To this day, I'm in the process of starting a 501(c) and own a NYC start-up production business. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for teaching me how to grow both personally and professionally. You were more than just an attorney. You were a miracle man, instrumental figure, attorney, mentor and friend. For that I'm grateful!

Hands down one of the nicest lawyers to work with. Peter H. Lederman helped me overcome my first offense dwi that took nearly a year and a half to get a result. Extremely knowledgeable and worth everu penny. He stood by me the entire time and was not going to give up until we reached MY goal. Got my ...dwi reduced to a reckless driving. Thank you so much! I couldn't be more greatful.
