John Powers Most Official Lawyer Ever
John Powers has represented my family for over 15 years. A young family member was in need of an attorney. I traveled from Long Island to NYC seeking a referral for a Lawyer I could potentially trust . Turned out to be a waste of trip. I was then told by a fellow Long Islander about Mr. John T. Power...
Thank you. Your trust means a lot to me.

You're in good hands with John Powers
Back in January of 2016, I was hit with 9 (yes nine) traffic tickets driving on the Long Island Expressway, including lapse of insurance (misdemeanor), invalid registration and inspection.

Excellent and Dedicated attorney
Very happy to be represented by John! His knowledge and persistence was powerful in a complicated case involving criminal, civil and immigration issues. He is easy to work with and has a large network.

do not ever doubt this guy!
John Powers took my DWI case and got me the results i needed! He was very professional and helped me through the whole process and in the end got me the results i walked away with no criminal charges against me. John is a great lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone!
"John is an aggressive and skilled advocate. if your life or liberty is on the line you want someone to fight for you and John will fight hard for you."
"Powers is a powerful lawyer and advocate! I met John while attending the National College for DUI Defense's summer session, which was recently hosted on the campus of Harvard's law school. I saw him in action and was most impressed with his work. I left with two thoughts: 1. If I was charged with a crime in his practice area, he would be my first call for representation; and 2. I need to add his name to my rolodex for potential client referrals. If you are in trouble and need some legal help, give John a call."
"I have had the pleasure of knowing John for over a decade and know him to be a skilled, diligent, and zealous advocate for his clients. I have referred him criminal cases in the past and would not hesitate to do so again in the future. John is an excellent lawyer who fights hard for his clients."
