Phenomenal Lawyer, Outstanding Results

Mr. Lederman delivered outstanding results. My case began with charges for a second dui and a refusal to breathalyze. I was in a bind with astronomical consequences. I was referred to him by a family member who claimed he was the absolute best lawyer for DUI cases. After my first consultation with Pe...ter my confidence was renewed. His substantial level of expertise and his resounding confident demeanor spoke volumes. He truly is a force to be reckoned with in court and a resounding life coach, instilling absolute logic and responsible advice to his clients. As of today my case is complete and Mr. Lederman was able to achieve just a 90 day suspension. This renewed sense of hope that was given to me was only possible through hiring Mr. Lederman as my lawyer. If you are reading this and stuck in a bind as I was in the beginning of my DUI case, your absolute best decision is to hire Peter Lederman in order to achieve utmost success!

Thank you..

Mr. Lederman is a professional in a world of many legal amateurs. My bac was twice the legal limit, was looking at 7 months, interlock and the rest that package delivers. Possibly jail time. He was able to Negotiate a 90 day tier 1 first offense. Equally important, guidance man to man to get my life ...back on the right track. One of the very best dui attorneys in the state told me I made a very good choice in hiring Mr. Lederman. Thank you sir, from a fellow Diplomat.

Excellent Job!

I was facing a second DUI, leaving the scene of an accident, and a myriad of local traffic charges. To say I was frightened is an understatement, but Mr. Lederman helped alleviate those fears. He told me that I had certain rights, and that there were things I must do to help myself. He handled my ca...se in a professional manner, and demonstrated all of his expertise. I ended up with a 90 day license suspension, and a fine. I was facing almost two years of license suspension, as well as many local fines. He took care of my case in an extraordinary manner, and achieved the best result possible. He is an exceptional lawyer, and I recommend him to anyone who needs a DUI attorney.

Best darn attorney I've ever retained

I was convicted of DWI in April of 2016 at the time my only legal status was DACA(deferred action for childhood arrivals) and had no idea my DWI charge could come in the way of my immigration status! So i hired an attorney who made me plead guilty to the DWI charge, a big mistake! cause shortly after... that i found out through my immigration attorney that I’m no longer allegeable for DACA cause of my guilty plea to DWI. I was torn into pieces i didn’t know which way to turn then i spoke to a friend of mine who suggested i should speak to Mr. Lederman of who he speaks of in high regards. I decided to give Mr. Lederman a chance to see if my case can be heard again and get the court to vacate my guilty plea, Lo and behold he didn’t just get me a post conviction relief but also got my case thrown out of the court i couldn’t have gotten a better attorney! The best DWI attorney in the state of New Jersey! I recommend anyone with a DWI charge to retain him immediately i promise you wouldn’t be disappointed! Thank you Mr. Lederman for your outstanding service you’ve made the happiest person. God bless you. Best regards Ahmed

Outstanding attorney

Peter was very efficient in my case, he reviewed all documents from every angle that affected the case. I hired Peter with the initial fear of what my future would be like with a DUI. At the end of our consultations, I felt very much at ease and left with a feeling of self worth- strongly recomm...end.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Peter is one of the most knowledgeable attorneys I have had the privilege of working with. He is incredibly well-versed in DUI/DWI law, with the seemingly effortless ability to cite cases and make cohesive arguments that win the day. I had the immense good-fortune of working with him on a DUI as co-counsel, and I gained a lot of insight into how to approach those cases due to his careful consideration and analysis of the facts. He was respectful and encouraging of my work product, while also giving me constructive feedback. He even put on a masterclass in how to handle client interactions. With his vast experience and his breadth of knowledge, Peter is definitely the advocate that you want on your side."

"Peter is an outstanding and well known attorney in the community with substantial experience handling DWI matters. I had the pleasure of attending one of his CLE seminars, gaining valuable knowledge in his field of DWI defense. He went above and beyond by staying after the lecture to answer questions and offered himself as a resource for any future issues. He has on countless occasions provided me with valuable information and insight into the art of defending a DWI case."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Peter is both a talented lawyer and a consummate gentleman. I have both taken ICLE seminars he has been a part of as well as observed him in court. I was in court on an occasion that Peter was in the middle of trying a DWI case. Now normally municipal court trials are not the most interesting cases to watch but I do take the opportunity to observe them when I am already in court to see if I can pick up some tips. Well I got more than that on the day I saw him. I got to see him skillfully poke holes in the prosecutors case while still remaining respectful to all involved. His client went from a DWI with other related charges to a ticket with low fines and no points. I can't remember the violation because it is so difficult to get for your client even in a speeding case where unsafe operation is a good result. He gave me his card and told me to call if I ever had any questions. The bottom line is not only did he call me back he gave me his cell #. He is a Lawyer's Lawyer"
