Best DUI Layer in NJ!!!!

I could not be happier with the level of service and professionalism I received at the law offices of Peter Lederman, Esq. His efficiency and dedication to my case far exceeded any expectations I could have hoped for. I was faced with multiple DUI’s and assorted traffic violations in numerous munic...ipalities throughout the state and was anticipating a grim outcome, to say the least. From the moment of my initial consultation Mr. Lederman gave me hope and had me convinced that he could provide me with the best-case scenario for my circumstances and he one hundred percent did not disappoint. Mr. Lederman went to bat for my case and I executed his ability with perfection. If anyone is looking for the best legal representation in the state of New Jersey for DUI or traffic offences, I cannot recommend the Law Offices of Pete Lederman, Esq enough.

1st Dui

Mr. Lederman did an amazing job helping me with my case. I was facing a speeding ticket, reckless ticket, and a dui. He went above and beyond. He explained every option I had and what I could do. I highly recommend him over any other lawyer. I looked for awhile before I picked the right lawyer. And I... am so glad I chose him. He got everything dropped for me besides a 90 days suspension. But I was facing 7months, with a huge amount of fines, an interlock device, etc. My BAC got thrown out in court because of Mr. Lederman. He’s worth every dollar. He is very straight forward and tells you everything as it is. No sugar coating. You need help with a DUI? This is the man to talk to.

First (and only) DWI

In the summer of 2019, I found myself at a critical turning point in my life, but not the type of turning point you might expect on this site. I was waiting to start a new job out of state in the fall of 2019 and thought the jersey shore would be a wonderful place to spend some time while I waited. I...t certainly was. At least until I made a mistake that had the potential to cost me the career I was so anxiously awaiting. In mid-summer I concluded a day at the beach with dinner and a few drinks before heading home. This was totally out of character for me and only minutes later I learned a hard lesson, when I saw lights in my rear-view mirror. I was pulled over for a minor traffic violation and was soon asked to step out of the car. If you are reading this, you likely know firsthand how the rest of this story goes. I was eventually charged with a second tier DWI due to having a BAC of .17. I faced fines, insurance surcharges, a license suspension, placement of an interlock device in my vehicle, embarrassment and, at best, difficulty with my future job. If you have found yourself in a similar predicament then rest assured that I understand the feeling of devastation and emotional turmoil you are feeling. I also know someone who can help you. This is not something you can or should face alone. You need Peter H. Lederman. In the days following my DWI I reviewed at least twenty DWI Defense attorney bios and contacted nearly as many by phone. From the first time I spoke with Peter it was clear that he was in a class of his own. After meeting him in person, I knew right away that he was the best of the best. I immediately retained Peter and later met with him to discuss the specifics of my case. He proved once again that I had made the right choice. Peter meticulously went through every detail of my case and clearly explained to me every challenge and each positive factor involved. He thoroughly answered every question that I had and, end the end, allowed me to make the decision regarding what outcome I would settle for. Peter helped me weigh the pros and cons and then stood firmly behind my decision to seek amendment of the DWI to reckless driving - even though this was a longshot and would require a trial. Over the course of the following months my trial was rescheduled multiple times. Peter and his staff, Jessica and Noreen, proved to be available, attentive and proactive in every action that was taken. If there was a single positive experience in this entire series of events, it was working with these three individuals. I’m not sure I have ever worked with such a cohesive, professional and courteous group. This, at least, gave me back some sense of dignity and pride during these tumultuous months. Finally, the day of my trial arrived. Peter advocated for me and fought for the outcome I needed, even though it seemed impossible. It seemed impossible until Peter Lederman made it happen. My 2nd Tier DWI with a BAC of .17 was reduced to reckless driving! In the subsequent moments when I shook Peter’s hand it felt like my life was given back to me. I simply do not have words to express how grateful I am for Peter, Jessica and Noreen. With this experience behind me I now know that the worst decision I’ve ever made – getting behind the wheel - got me into this situation. I also know that the best decision I ever made – hiring Peter Lederman – got me out of this situation. If you are in a similar situation, do not second guess yourself. Regardless of the outcome, you will not regret hiring Peter.

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.
