John T. Powers, Jr.

There is no one more dedicated to helping people than John Powers, Esquire. I came to him so shaken up and upset, worried that my life was falling apart. He immediately put me at ease with his warm personality and knowledge of the law here in New York. We worked together on my legal issue and he made... sure I was aware of all my rights, before making any decisions. Mr. Powers was there for me, day or night... always in touch, in case I had any questions or concerns or new developments. He repeatedly went out of his way to explain things that I didn’t understand due to ‘legalese’. I’ve known Mr. Powers for over 20 years and I’ve never found anyone better than him! Do not hesitate to call his office if you have any legal issues, questions or concerns. He is the most knowledgeable and intelligent lawyer that you’ll ever find. He gives his all to help his clients. There is no lawyer more dedicated than Mr. Powers! Give him a call. It’ll be the best decision you ever made!

Being a nurse, it was very important to me that I found the best possible attorney to represent my case. John was very professional, efficient, and easy to communicate with. He was always available to answer any questions or concerns that I may have had throughout the court process. After a lot of ha...rd work and fighting on my behalf, Mr Powers was able to get my case dismissed entirely as if it never happened! I would highly recommend and use again if I were to ever find myself in need.

I hired John when my 20 year old son was arrested and facing very serious and potentially life-altering charges. John knew from the start what needed to be done to get the best possible outcome. He walked us through and kept in touch with us the entire time. If a phone call was placed or an email sen...t, John would respond within 24 hours. Everything he did or advised us to do was in my son’s best interest and it paid off. At the onset of my son’s case he was looking at years in prison. In the end he was sentenced to days in the local jail. One person was surprised at the outcome of the case and told my son he “must have had a good lawyer”. Honestly, he actually had a great lawyer. Thank you, John....for everything.

John Powers is one of the finest, knowledgeable and professional lawyers on Long Island. If you ever need legal assistance for any DUI or DWI defense., he is the lawyer to go with. His fees are also reasonable and he does not nickel or dime you for every minute of his time like some lawyers do. . ...He is the best! Thanks John.

I was in a bad situation after being arrested on a driving drug charge & I refused the chemical test....... Not because I was guilty but because the Officer wouldn’t accept urine as an alternative to the blood test. Something that could of given the same results and I was more the willing to subm...it. Instead he arrested me & said I refused the test. Originally I had legal aid Who didn’t show up to my DMV hearing on two separate dates resulting in my stupidity to continue without a lawyer & the revocation of my lincese. I was also facing jail time & years of probation. I knew I needed real help. I met with John & immediately felt I was in good hands..... he did not disappoint!!! The DA who was stuck on the same offer during numerous appearances with legal aid,, went from 10 days jail & 3 years probation to a walk-thru & 3 years probation after my first appearance with John. As this was unacceptable, He filed motions & was able to get me a hearing before trial. *legal aid put in for motions Twice yet never filed any paperwork on my behalf. I’m ashamed to admit this now but, After one of my appearances, I was annoyed with John because I thought he should of been doing certain things to elemnate some of my charges, Since I had the proof After discussing this with him, he said he knew what he was doing even if I didn’t understand. I kept my faith in him & boy was he amazing. He is a fierce advocate to have in your corner. During my hearing into just 20 minutes of John’s cross examination the Judge took a recess to allow the DA to locate paperwork .... it was during this break the Judge said To John “I could proceed & let you continue beating up on the Officer but, there is no point since I’m dismissing everything.” I have to say although I was extremely relived & happy, I was a little disappointed he wasn’t allowed to proceed because John was mesmerizing to watch. I can’t say enough about his ability in the courtroom. He was extremely prepared & ready to win. Honestly I believe the court knew John had just gotten started & if he would of been allowed to proceed, he would of been able to Prove the Trooper was lying & have him perjure himself. I still have traffic violations to deal with but the majority of my problems are gone. Because of his attention to detail,& his knowledge of the law..... He is a true expert on criminal law .... John’s expertises made it possible To be declared an Illegal Arrest! No jail & No probation. John is dedicated to providing the very best defense He is BEYOND Extraordinary. I couldn’t wait to write this review even before my case was over.... (which at this point should be in traffic court since the only charges left are traffic violations) because I want the world to know how extremely amazing John is. He was able to bring to light some of the Untrue things the officer was saying about me. Once this is over, I hope I won’t have the need for legal help in the further but, if I do I know who to call & I will tell everyone I know to look no further Hands down, John Powers is the Man This review doesn’t have enough stars for a man like John Powers!!! My whole heartily thanks to John
