DWI

Posted by

Mr. Splain was the absolute right hire for our daughter's DWI when . Not only was he able to negotiate the DWI charges against her down to a violation, his calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional assistance and support for her when she needed it most. My wife and I are forever grateful for his service and we would recommend Ms. Splain without reservation.

Jamie Nobles, Criminal defense Attorney on Dec 31, 2019
Relationship: Co-worker

Tom has been a friend and mentor for nearly 20 years. He is the foremost expert on DWI cases in our region. He has handled well over 2,000 DWI cases and there is nothing he hasn't seen when it comes to DWI defense. I have referred him countless clients. He treats each client with care and respect and obtains excellent results time and time again.

David Hoffmann, Criminal defense Attorney on Dec 20, 2019
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Tom Splain is an outstanding attorney. I am occasionally asked to refer people to an attorney, and Tom is always at the top of the list. He has an excellent demeanor, and his knowledge of the law is unmatched. His years of experience and his familiarity with the local courts make him a great choice for any person seeking representation.

Kevin Van Allen, DUI and DWI Attorney on Dec 20, 2019
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I have worked on a number of cases with Tom and regularly referred matters to him. Besides being an incredible attorney, he is kind and pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend him!

Angelo Rose, Litigation Attorney on Dec 19, 2019
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I have known Tom for over 20 years, was an adversary as a top-level prosecutor in the Monroe County District Attorneys Office and is now a colleague on the defense bar. Tom is unequivocally one of the most respected attorneys in Western NY. He works tirelessly for his clients. I have worked together with him on complex criminal litigations several times and with each, I am more impressed by his knowledge of the law, ability to decipher often confusing statutes and communicate such to his clients. There is no other attorney I could recommend more earnestly.
