DWI 2ND CHARGE

Joe went the extra mile to handle my DWI charge and got me a fast favorable decision. If you get a DWI hire Joe, do not waste your time or money with those high profile guys all they want is your money, they are like having a public defender. Great job Joe!!!!

Attorney Joe Gerstenzang - a great choice

Our 19 year old got a DUI (1st) and is not from NY. Attorney Joe Gerstenzang was recommended to us by an attorney in our state. Joe met us at the initial court hearing, guided us through the process, was able to have the charge somewhat reduced, and then proceeded to handle this to the finish where ...our son's license, though now only CONDITIONAL, will be fully reinstated by NY DMV in the near future. Dealing with the court proceedings was tough, but dealing with the NY DMV, especially being from out-of-state, is a herculaean task. Without going into all of that saga's details suffice to say that Mr. Gerstenzang knows how to navigate the NY DMV. We also found his office staff to be very, very helpful. Although we hope to never go through this situation again, we highly recommend Attorney Joe Gerstenzang to help you out.

Couldn't have asked for more

I have words to express how grateful I am to the Peter Gerstanzang Law Firm and, in particular, Attorney Joseph Gerstanzang. My son was recently involved in a legal matter in Schenectady, NY and was represented by Mr. Gerstenzang. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable in the specifics and nuances o...f my son case, but Joe showed great kindness, patience, and sensitivity to.him as the case progressed. There was never a time when either my son or I called Joe that he did not have the time to patiently and clearly answer our questions and explain what was going on relative to the case. Moreover, Joe has the unique ability to "read" people extremely well and take the optimum approach to achieve the desired result - being patient and "laid back" when it was called for and assertive and direct when that was the necessary approach. I was also most impressed that Peter Gerstenzang himself took a personals do genuine interest in what was happening to my son, willingly discussing the case with me whenever I asked. All of this lead to a most satisfactory outcome in my son's case. In conclusion I would simply state that anyone who is in need of an attorney in the Albany/Schenectady area would do well to consider Joe Gerstenzang and the Peter Gerstenzang law firm

Joseph Gerstenzang

There is no better Attorney for DUI/DWI cases in New York State than Joseph Gerstenzang. I was charged with DWI while moving my vehicle from a parking lot at a college campus alumni game in Brockport, New York. Joseph Gerstenzang represented me in a most professional and compelling manner. He has i...nstant credibility throughout the court system as evidenced my the Judge's reaction to our initial appearance. In fact, the Judge commented as to having the Gerstenzang DWI in New York State textbook in his office!! Throughout the case, he continued to work the facts within the constraints of the DWI laws. His follow-up was very informative and convincing. I won't have this problem again!! No one knows the DWI laws and their implications any better than Joseph Gerstenzang. We won the case and all the evidence was suppressed. I highly recommend Joseph Gerstenzang.
