My Lawyer Saved my Career

I am a city employee, in 2014 I was arrested for allegedly committing several felonious non-violent, non- job related criminal offenses. I had to find a lawyer who understood the plight of the average everyday working citizen who was a single parent minority living from paycheck to paycheck. I foun...d him, Steven Questore. Never in my lifetime did I think I would need a lawyer, much less be able to afford one who practices out of the Woolworth Building across the street from City Hall. The moment I reached out to Steven's Law office he returned communication in less than 1 (one) hour. After explaining in detail my situation to him, he assured me that he could help me. Upon my first in person meeting Steven set up a payment plan that allowed me to make affodable monthly payments as he worked on my case. I signed the retainer agreement, he had officially became my lawyer. I met with Steven on several occasions so that we left no stone unturned in my defense, most importantly he believed in my innocence. As I stated I am a city employee and any form of a criminal conviction could have literally ended my career, (I was already placed on administrative duty because of the arrest). How would I provide for my son, pay for his private school, what would happen to us if I lost all that I had worked so hard for my entire life? Scared is an understatement to describe how I felt. Steven understood this, he settled my fears and put my mind at ease. Steven worked on my case keeping me updated every step of the way. This went on for almost two years, it was not always good news, postponements, new DA's, new judges, offers to settle made by the prosecution that were just not acceptable. Never the less Steven always assured me "not to worry", he would often say "I'll tell you when you should worry." Fortunately, he never had to state those words to me. Finally, on July 7th 2016 a year and ten months after my arrest Steven Questore got what started out as an attempt at a Felony conviction down to a FULL DISMISSAL by action of the DA's office. YES, a FULL DISMISSAL you read it correctly. I got my life back and more importantly my career as a city employee remains unblemished. I emphatically encourage anyone who is facing what seems like a no - win situation to reach out to Mr. Questore's Law office, his assistants are always available and do an outstanding job of getting your messages to him. There was never a time that I had to lye in wait for Steven to get back to me, he makes you feel like your case is the only one that matters. Bottom line, he cares about who you are as a person and what affect this will have on your life. He sticks with you, no matter how long it takes, Steven understands the plight of being a minority in America and having to go up against the Justice System. I shudder to think of what would have happened had I not found Steven. As My title says My Lawyer Saved my Career.
