Danielle M. Papa

Danielle cares about her clients and is very realistic when it comes to the outcomes of your case. I was arrested for DWI and started looking for an attorney the next day. Instead of a phone system instructing me to "press 1" like other lawyers, to my surprise I dialed her number and spoke with her d...irectly. Even before we agreed to work together she gave me a thorough rundown of what to expect moving forward. Unfortunately due to the circumstances of my arrest there wasn't much wiggle room, but Danielle still fought for me and brought up different issues to the DAs office - however she was very honest with my chances of getting a better deal and I truly appreciate that she didn't set me up with any fairy tales. Luckily, my charges will get dropped down to impairment after I meet the courts requirements. Danielle is always there to answer any questions I may have!

Danielle Papa has represented me multiple times for two DUI's, a felony assault charge, and a financial dispute with NYIT over tuition issues. Each time the outcome was in my favor and successful. Danielle has a high level of expertise and is an outstanding attorney. Her level of experience connect...ed with her compassion puts her at the top of her game. She is able to connect with people on a personable level which is exactly what anyone in unfortunate circumstances and crisis welcomes. Danielle Papa is a fierce, knowledgable attorney who makes you a priority not a case file number. As a former client, I highly recommend Danielle. She is not only an awesome attorney but a genuinely good person. Words cannot express the gratitude I have for her.

I hired Danielle Papa in June 2016 after getting a DWI. This was the first time I had ever been in trouble, so I was terrified. Not only was Danielle extremely professional, detail oriented, and compassionate, she made me completely feel at ease all the time. I highly recommend her to anyone in need ...of services. Amazing attorney, and person.

In April of 2015 I was charged with DUI and possession. To be honest I was pretty scared about the long term consequences in regards to my recordand of course my freedom. I interviewed 5 lawyers and all had various pricing points. I did not pick Danielle because of the price even though comparativel...y she was reasonable. I picked Danielle because for a few reasons. First she listened and asked intelligent well thought out questions. Second she reviewed various scenarios and WE agreed on what would be best for my particular situation. Third she laid out out a comprehensive yet realistic strategy on how to obtain that goal. Finally and perhaps most important she has empathy. Danielle did not judge or preach. She at no point made me feel less than because I had a problem and admittedly I had a serious problem. I have had very frank conversations with Danielle since retaining her and she was always supportive and I would even go so far to say proud. Ultimatelyat this point I would consider her a friend and I take that word very seriously. Yet in regard to her legal prowess, I followed her suggestions to a tee which in turn gave her the ammunition to tenaciously argue my case over the period of over a year. My judge was not known for leniency yet Danielle NEVER settled. At one point even I was going settle but she refused and for that I will be eternally grateful. If you are reading this review clearly you have an issue. My suggestion is two fold. First hire Danielle she will not disappoint. Second, listen and ACT upon her suggestions, not only will it help your case it may save your life...it saved mine. To sum up my experience, I expected somewhere between 6-8 months in county a felony DUI AND misdemeanor possession of heroin. I received a misdemeanor DUI and a disorderly conduct with no jail time and to boot I'm 7 months clean and I've never been happier. To me this is no just a review but a thank you letter to someone who made a massive positive impact in my life and again I could not be more grateful. Michael L

Danielle saved my skin! I got into some trouble a while back now and needed some legal advice. Not knowing who to call i just searched best DWI attorney in New York. Little did I know I would actually get one of the best. I don't know anything about the legal system but Danielle always filled me in. ...She also kept me calm most of the time like taking a weight off my back. Anyway I got my DWI charge dropped, and I can finally move on with my life. Thank you Danielle.
