Wrongful DUI Case

I was wrongfully charged with DUI one night double parked in front of my house. I fell asleep with the car turned off after waiting an hour for parking and because I worked 14 hours. I was then profiled by the NYPD and wrongfully arrested and charged with DUI. Mike got my misdemeanor DUI charge dropp...ed down to a violation and a fine. He wasn't expensive and he knows what he's doing. He's definitely the guy to hire when you've been charged with a DUI.

Best DUI Defense Lawyer in NYC!

I was arrested over 3 years ago for DUI. Hired Attorney Michael Discioarro about 1 day after my arrest, as soon as he was available to meet me. Spent over 2 years in court with Attorney Discioarro. Finally got a lessened charge of DWAI misdemeanor not a felony. He is an excellent Attorney, well known... in the courthouse, always ends up knowing the other Attorneys in the courthouse everytime I had to appear. He knows the process and the system really well. He has probably dealt with hundreds of DUI cases. When I first got arrested I was afraid, after dealing with Attorney Discioarro, it became clear to me that it's just all one huge process and hundreds if not thousands of people go through this experience. So I didn't feel so much like a big time loser or criminal. Anyway, I learned my lesson. I no longer drive unless it's work related. Socially, I just take subways, buses or cabs. It's not right to drink and drive. If you don't care about yourself, at least care about other people's lives, especially children that you could potentially hurt by drinking and driving. Thanks for everything Attorney Michael Discioarro!

Great DWI Defense Attorney

Mike did a great job for me. I was charged with a misdemeanor DWI. He was able to get the charge knocked down to a traffic violation. He went above and beyond to get me this result. He is very knowledgeable about the process and felt he always had my best interest at heart at all times. I would highl...y recommend him to anyone facing a similar situation.

DWI, DWAI, Criminal Case

Michael S. Discioarro is an excellent attorney. I was wrongfully arrested for an alleged DWI in NYC. I went to several other attorneys before finding Michael, not only did the other attorneys try to over charge me but wanted me to accept an unfavorable plea deal that would result in a criminal record... and significant fines. However, Michael believe in my innocence, was available at all times to answer my questions, and zealously fought to defend my rights and prove my innocents. In sum, against adverse odds, Michael was able to get the DWI misdemeanor charge alleged against me, reduced to a favorable simple traffic violation with no criminal record. Needless to say, I was very pleased with Michael's services. He was always there when I needed him, and he really cared; not just about winning, but about keeping my reputation clean by forcing everyone to see my innocents.

The best lawyer I ever have

I have a DWI case in NYC. I've found Michael via search on the internet. I found him to be professional, trustworthy and simply honest. Although it was my first offence, I faced some serious penalties. Somehow he managed to get me off the hook with minimum penalties. I may call it a miracle, as I wa...s not even dreaming about such outcome. So, if you have similar problem call him, he's worth each penny you will spend! And you will have a real miracle maker on your side.
