Best DWI lawyers in NY

I feel very fortunate to have chosen this firm for a very unfortunate incident involving a DUI. Patrick Campion represented me at the criminal hearing and could not have hoped for a better result! Everyone has been extremely professional and sensitive to my situation and have kept me informed throu...ghout the process. If you have any troubles with the law and drinking and driving, this is the group to hire.

The Eliminator

Nothing is more demoralizing than being charged with a DWI. I know because it happened to me twice but remember you have only been charged; you have been convicted of nothing. That’s where the Gerstenzang Law Firm comes into play. Peter Gerstenzang has written the book on DWI law and nobody knows ...it better. The law clerk in my first case all most fell over when he walked in, she had been to many of Peters seminars. My second case the Judge says Mr. Gerstenzang it is an honor to have you in my courtroom. From the first time you talk to Peter you will get the sense that dam this guy believes he’s going to win and it will relieve the pressure you have been under believe me. This is the best DWI law firm in the country bar none. Do not let anyone talk you into getting anyone else or settling for DWAI, get your charges dismissed. If your officer made any mistake with ticket, probable cause, roadside test or the machine, they will find it and your problem will be solved. If you are considering the Gerstenzang Law Firm, you have found the best, now hire them. Unfortunately, 4 of my friends have also had to use them so now whenever someone get in trouble, we just call the” Eliminator”.

One of the best!

Words cannot express how grateful I am to Peter and his firm. Peter not only has a passion for his work but is immensely knowledgeable. During the initial consultation, he spent over an hour discussing the incident and possible defenses. During our conversation, I felt that he truly cared and want...ed to help. His insight into DWI laws is unmatched and after our initial phone call, I immediately felt like I was in good hands. After retaining Peter he continued to be available for any questions or concerns that I had. This was very reassuring as my case was fairly complex and involved a lot of moving parts. Peter made it a point to drive from Albany to Suffolk County where the incident occurred to meet me for my court appearance. Unfortunately, I was facing my second DWI in just under 10 years, which carried serious consequences. Peter was always open and honest about the situation and never promised a particular outcome. Fortunately, Peter was able to knock my charge down to a violation, which is truly a miracle. Peter is highly regarded by his peers and I could not imagine having anyone else represent me through this unfortunate time. Without a doubt, I would recommend Peter to anyone looking for a dedicated, hard-working and truly passionate attorney.

Peter cleared my DUI!

I was arrested in Bolton County last July with a BAC of 0.08, while I was protecting myself from an assault. As a Canadian citizen on temporary work visa, having a DUI on my record would make me inadmissible to the United States and ruin my entire career. Even worse, I was under a huge pressure to ge...t this case resolved before my visa expiration date. I immediately did my research and immediately found that Peter would be the ideal attorney to work with. He took my case as if I was his son and fought for me until the very end. He has 50+ years of expertise in DUI/DWI and he is very well recognized and respected by the prospectors which makes it a huge plus. At the end, which my charges were dropped to Disorderly Conduct violation which is even lesser than a DWAI. Given the severity of my situation, this outcome was a miracle. Peter was not only a lawyer but a father for me. He was by my side throughout the whole process but he also did not hesitate a second to tell his honest opinion. I felt in great comfort having him as my lawyer and I cannot think of anybody else who could get me out of this situation. Thank you Peter.

Life Saver

Peter was there for me when it mattered the most. Throughout my entire case he was never more than a call or text message away, ready to answer my questions and educate me about the process. No question was ever too small or unimportant, I always received a call back or a message as soon as it was po...ssible. Peter was always honest and up front about the challenges of my case and the possible outcomes. There was never a moment when I was surprised or confused by what was happening. His honesty, compassion, and communication with me allowed me to trust him completely; this gave me the peace of mind to focus on myself and what I had to do in my life, leaving the legal side of the equation totally in his hands. His counsel and advice allowed me the second chance I needed most, and gave me the opportunity to live life without a black cloud over my head. I will be forever grateful to Peter, Joe, and the rest of their talented firm. They are truly life savers. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
