Professional, effective and right to the point.

My daughter was involved in an underaged DUI and was risking criminal record, major fines, and a 1 year suspension of her license. Michael was able to plea it down to a disorderly conduct and got her license reinstated with minor fees. My daughter learned a valuable lesson. Michael was very professio...nal and also made it clear to her that she should learn from this and never do it again. I am very happy to know that he is around in case we ever need him. Hopefully, we won't!

Really amazing skills

I was searching on the internet to find a credible Attorney. Mike had great reviews, so I called him and scheduled an appointment. He answered all my questions in detail and advised me what are the possible options I have. Once I spoke to him, I felt a great relief. He sincerely did his home work.... Finally got my case dismissed in my favor. At the court he was well respected by fellow attorneys. Thanks for your help Mike. I really appreciate it. It's hard to come by people like you.

Very lucky to have found him.

Few months ago, my father was arrested and falsely accused of a terrible crime, during which he has been interrogated and has said things that could have been misconstrued and used against him in court. To make matters worse he was not a US citizen so conviction would have resulted in deportation. We... were very careful looking for a lawyer, as it was the first time anyone in our family has had to deal with this sort of thing, and out of the five lawyers that we have met and talked with, Mr. Dreishpoon was the most competent lawyer, and despite our difficult circumstance he was the most accomodating and reasonable. The case concluded with an ACD, which was the best case scenario, especially from the system I had lost much faith in. I'm very glad to have had Michael represent my father, and I would Recommend him to anyone facing criminal charges.

Great Attorney

I can, without any hesitation, whole heartly recommend Mr. Dreishpoon. I have required the services of other lawyers in the past and I can clearly state that Mr. Dreishpoon has by far met everyone of my expectations. He clearly explained the case, the law and what my opinions were regarding my case. ...I took his advise and we won the case.

Straight Shooter

I was arrested in the summer of 2010 for getting into a fist fight. After doing my due diligence and getting some outrageous quotes from lawyers clearly looking to milk my case and take it to trial, I decided to go with Mike for a couple of reasons. First during the consultation and all through my ca...se, Mike was a straight shooter and never wavered from telling it like it was. I also liked that Mike was a public defender in Queens and had solid experience with the judges there and knew the DAs. Public defenders also get a lot of case experience, making them valuable counsel. Mike's advice was spot on and although I had to come to court a couple of times, he was able to get my charges reduced to a violation with no fines. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone in need of a competent and honest criminal defense attorney.
