A+ Lawyer

Mr. Leibenstern is a fantastic lawyer-- He truly saved me 7 years ago after a DUI. I was charged only with a traffic violation and did NOT lose my license. Since then, he has gone above and beyond to help me with legal matters including going to the court house on his own time to get my disposition p...aper. I am not a practicing medical professional and if I had a DUI on my record, I would not be able to find work in my field. Thanks to Mr. Leibenstern, I do not have to face that mess and have been able to get on with my life. To this day we keep in touch- I would recommend him to anyone. He truly works wonders.

Excelllent Attorney!

Mr. Leibenstern answered all my questions and made me feel at ease IMMEDIATELY!. I was so concerned about my future and what a criminal record could do to my future. Even though the case didn't go past the precinct he escorted me their and followed up with me on a regular basis for MONTHS after the ...case was over. If I ever found myself or family in legal trouble he would be the first person I would contact.
