Thank you Peter

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.

Gave me a second chance

I could not be more greatful for the outstanding work Peter did on my case. My job is driving oriented. And a DUI is something i just could not have. My cause however was not your average DUI, and there was not to much in my favor. Peter not only got the DUI dropped, but managed to get me a careless ...drving minimal fine and 1 month suspension of license. I would recommend Peter to everyone. He came though 100%. Thanks again Peter!!

The DUI Expert

As you read this review know that there is hope, there are options, and all of us here have gone through this. If you told me 7 months ago there's light at the end of the tunnel I would laugh at you, but with this man there is. I was in your shoes, coming home one day with my mailbox filled with 'c...aring' mails from other lawyers offering help. I thought my mail man hated me. But they were all the same sleazy promises. I knew better so I did my research, I KNEW I wanted a lawyer that ONLY did DUI's. Mr. Lederman has handled over 4000 cases, this man lectures about DUI, he's literally pushing to reform the law. I meet with him and at the point I knew my life would change. Between the alcohol counseling, the real advice this man gives, and work HE makes you do to build a case for YOU it will change you. It's this weird sense of self realization, owning up to your actions. Mr. Lederman doesn't promise an outcome but he will literally find every single flaw in the case. Then it's up to you, what outcome do you want, what type of risk are you willing to take? He will work for you, he is there for you, and his staff of 2 people are amazing. My outcome was unbelievable, 7 months of battling to achieve a goal I never thought would be possible. Do your research, don't be cheap, and listen to your gut. Mr. Lederman can and will help you.

Best DWI Attorney in NJ

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.

Dui/Dwi with .17 BAC and got away

I was pulled over by NJ State Police with a BAC of .17, which is nearly double the legal limit. With this I fell into the Teri 2 category where it was a mandatory 2 years loss of license, interlock device in my vehicle, 48 hours of IDRC, and up to $1,000 in fines. Hired Mr. Leaderman asap and abo...ut 9 months later I was convicted of a reckless driving ticket and received only 2 months of suspension. And that's it! Would not recommend anyone else other than Peter Leaderman for a Dui/Dwi offense. Thank you again Mr. Leaderman.
