Supportive, competent, a great lawyer

My son had a violation of protection order against him (which was not intentional), for which he turned himself in. The day & process was long & arduous. However, Mr Medows responded immediately to my calls & texts, explained everything, & came and sat with me while I was waiting. In the courtroom, I... could not have been happier with his defense. There was no guarantee my son would leave the same day, but he got him out. The prosecuter asked for $10,000 bail & we left with no bail on his own recognizance. I can't tell you how grateful I am to James Medows.

Charged with 6 Misdeameanors, retained James Medows and walked away without a criminal record !

I was going through the worse time of my life. I was charged with 6 misdemeanors. I retained Mr Medows and he immediately began to work on my case. As A result of my arrest, I was facing the loss of my teaching license, my house, my car and everything else :( Mr Meadows was able to negotiate a deal w...here I walked away with a non-criminal violation and NO criminal record. Mr Medows is sharp, knowledgeable and has great oratorical skills. Additionally he has great rapport with his colleagues (Judges, DA's etc). James Medows is highly professional, respectful and compassionate. He will work hard on your case and call/text you updates and answer all of your questions. Mr Meadows was able to get me a earlier court date and my case was resolved quickly and I am moving forward with my life. James Medows restored my livelihood. I highly recommend him. His rate is reasonable and he will work hard to get you a favorable disposition. I cannot thank James Medows enough for his hard work and dedication with regard to my case!

Criminal

I hired Mr. Medows from out of state to help me with an old charge in NYC. I found Mr. Medows very responsive, be it by text or phone. He gave me excellent advice. Met me at the courthouse and negotiated on my behalf to have the charges disposed with no fines. He made a very stressful situati...on extremely easy and his rate was very reasonable. I highly recommend, Mr. Medows. Sent from my iPad

I couldn't have done it without James Medows

When I was wrongfully accused of assault this past year I had no idea who I could turn to. I called James Medows and he was immediately on the case. Knowledgable, caring, and proactive, James Medows makes you feel as though you have a friend who truly believes in your best interest. Even after the co...urt upgraded my charges to a felony, James was able to get me off with only a 14-week class. In the end, my case was eventually dropped to a violation. James Medows' support is what got me through the most horrible six months of my life. I cannot recommend him enough.

A Positive Outcome

James Medows took on my case in summer of 2012, I was being charged with promoting prostitution, selling liquor without a license and illegal warehousing. For several months Medows fought these charges down to a city violation, which is not a crime. the D.A was offering me 90 days in jail and due to ...the persistent work of Medows not only did i not spend one night in a cell but i was able to continue my education to receive my B.A degree in Buffalo NY comfortably. I would recommend Medows to any one not wanting to spend time in prison for a crime they did not commit. His knowledge of the law guarantees a positive outcome in your case.
