Since the first moment I saw mr. James at court in downtown brooklyn I knew he was a serious and dedicated man at his profession. He has been my lawyer since february of 2013 fighting for my dwi case. He has kept me informed and taught me the possible results or outcomes of my accusations. Although t...he case is not over it is close to ending with positive results. Yet yesterday we made an incredible victory at my safety hearing with the department of motor vehicles where my license was going to be revoked due to my refusal to a chemical test back when my dwi case started. He stood there for me and really did his job and helped me won the case.

I won't go into all the details of my arrest about a year ago in the wake of Sandy, but luckily my first phone call to a close friend resulted in the very quick introduction to Mr. Medows. I was a nervous wreck, and he was amazing! He got the charges against me dropped, and worked with me through ...the tangle that is our criminal justice "system". If you should ever need a criminal defense lawyer, Mr. Medows is who you would want to have representing you. I fully endorse him.

James Hal Medows advocates and negotiates - for you. James Medows minimizes the impact of a system that operates to inflict punishment before vindication. For me, James Medows nipped at the outset my potential wrongful arrest and did not try to financially exploit me to do it. Never go into a ...police station unprepared! The police can arrest you without saying "you are under arrest". The police don't read you your Miranda rights. The police - do - isolate you in a subterranean room within the police station to interrogate you without the protection of a lawyer. And I was the victim. A thief duplicated my debit card and stole money from my bank account. I reported the theft to the bank and the police. The detective assigned to investigate my case asked me to come to the police station to provide more information. When I went to the police station, the detective accused me of taking and reporting the money stolen. After questioning me for 40 minutes to effect a false confession, the detective released me. The second time the same detective requested that I come to the station I lawyer-ed up. James, after ascertaining that I was the innocent party, made the detective understand "very clearly" that I was the victim, and James' presence had the detective explaining "very nicely" - even though I thought the detective's excuse was lame - the reason for the second visit. James explained to me the consequences of being charged - even if erroneously charged. An 18 to 24 hour jail stay. An internet publicized arrest. Missed work. Potential loss of job. At least two court appearances: one for arraignment and bail and one for dismissal of the charges. The length of time to correct this mistake is at least 6 months. Bank fraud is a FELONY! James' handling of this circumstance demonstrated his committment to eliminating a societal trauma by preventing another negative interaction between the public and the police. Again, my thanks and esteem go out to James!

I was searching the internet for a DWI/DUI lawyer to assist my father with his DWI case. I went on Mr. Medows website and read all his reviews. When I called him , he provided me with knowledgeable advice regarding my father DWI case. I retain him right away. Mr. Medows kept me and my father infor...m throughout this case . My father case was resolve without no jail time. I highly recommend Mr. Medows.
