DUI and DWI 30%

DWI is my favorite area of defense work - they can happen to anyone and the stakes are high for them and their families. I give every one of my clients my very best so they may successfully get on with their lives.

I am a former town prosecutor who will fight to defend your rights. I have prosecuted over 2,500 vehicular offenses and defended motorists in New York on D.W.I. charges since 1990. I truly enjoy defending motor vehicle offenses; whether a DWI charge or a speeding ticket. It happens to good people from every walk of life. And, when they come to me I give every one of them my very best!

Rex Pietrobono, Review

Rex handled our 16 year old son's case while treating him with dignity and respect. Rex got his 3 moving violations reduced to a parking ticket. Rex gave us sound advice throughout the process and kept us updated about how the process was proceeding. We would highly reccommend using Rex for an...y traffic incident.

A professional and compassionate attorney

I received a speeding ticket in a locality in the NYS that, unfortunately, had an extremely rude and unprofessional prosecutor who was full of himself and showed total disrespect to defendants accused with only minor traffic infractions. This was displayed by highly demeaning attitude, threats and lo...ts of angry shouting. Stunned, I declined to take his completely unreasonable plea offer, which triggered even more threats and shouting, and decided to retain an attorney as it looked like the matter was going to proceed to trial and the prosecutor seemed committed to "teach me a lesson" in court. I asked for a few referrals and Mr. Rex Pietrobono was recommended to me by his colleague. I must say I am very happy I retained Rex. First, he was not a kind of attorney who is difficult to get a hold of. Rex quickly returns calls and emails. He was very professional and knowledgeable in the matter. Rex agreed to represent me despite it looked to be a bit more complicated matter than a usual traffic ticket since it seemed unlikely that the agreeable plea deal would be offered. In all likelihood the case was going to trial which is a much more challenging course of events for an attorney. Nevertheless, Rex' fee was fair and reasonable, exactly what I expected it to be in a traffic matter. Rex took all the info he thought might be useful and appeared in court for me prepared, if no agreeable plea is offered, to cross-examine the officer and give it a best shot at the trial. I specifically asked Rex to reject any plea offer that's worse than what I wanted to receive and move to trial in that case. Perhaps, the prosecution and the police officer were not eager to try their case against a highly qualified attorney and Rex made a case to them to agree to a plea that I wanted. I am very happy with Rex' representation and would recommend him any day to anyone who is in a situation similar to what I had, the situation that is now, luckily, behind me.

Perfect lawer

Rex has always resolved our legal matters very well. Can not see why we would go anywhere else. Rex is well connected and knowlegeble lawer. He is always available and willing to give advice. No bull talk, just facts add excellent results!

值得信赖的律师

两个月内拿两张交通罚单是个很糟糕的经历,还好有象Pietrobono先生这样的律师。他在电话里简单地分析了一下我的案例,我觉得他对相关领域里的知识很熟悉,但又没有故弄玄虚,而且收费也很合理。在我委托Pietrobono先生后,他仔细地分析了案例,充分地作了准备。最后,我非常意外但是高兴地发现我的两张罚单都被驳回了,没有任何不良记录!我希望以后再也不要吃罚单了,但是万一。。 我还会找Pietrobono先生帮忙。 直到今天,我才发现我还没有谢谢过你,借这个写评价的机会,说声“谢谢”。

Amazing

I never thought I would be arrested let alone need a DWI lawyer. Finding a lawyer is stressful and confusing, but I knew Rex was the guy to go with when he said to me (through my tears) "why don't you let me help you?" Rex is well known in the Westchester law community. He worked so hard and made... me feel so comfortable and kept me up to speed with the whole process. He was always a text, phone call or email away for one of my countless questions and responded promptly. Although I'm sure he had other cases, he acted as if I was his only client. I hope to never have to use his services again, but I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of a knowledgeable attorney.
