Lawrence A. Newman

Lawrence Newman successfully defended me in a DUI case about 5 years ago. I did end up pleading to DUAI but that was much better than the original charge. However, this review is more about what happened this week. I was filling out some employment forms and had a question related to my case and I called Lawrence Newman and left a voice mail. He called me back in a timely manner and answered all of my questions in an extremely helpful and friendly manner. He did this without asking for any money. I highly recommend him!

If you're in need of a great criminal defense lawyer in Ithaca, NY you have no need to look any further. Larry Newman is easily one of the most competent and respectable lawyers I've ever worked with. Gave me a great rate and helped me get my charge dismissed. I even needed some clarification about my case 7 years later and he replied within minutes and helped me clear up my questions. Highly recommended!!!!!

I was facing a fourth DWI conviction with very serious consequences. Larry Newman and Michael Cyr were very sincere and professional about handling my unique situation. Without these guys i would have lost my son, job, and home! I can't thank them enough for what they've done for me. I first consulted with a huge name attorney always on the radio. Then i realized with the distance, how often would i see the attorney in person? So after reading reviews for local attorneys that specifically represented people with DWI offenses; i called Cyr and Newman because of the amazing genuine ratings i had read. My first call i spoke with Larry for about an hour. He immediately knew the only way i might have a chance is to have an attorney get my story out there. I'm a worry wart and Larry had tons of patience and time to help reassure me of every possible outcome of each court hearing. With Larry and Michael together i felt very confident that i had chosen the right attorneys to represent me. Every individuals case is unique but i can guarantee you that you won't find smarter, more thorough, sincere, and compassionate attorneys than these guys! The reviews were important for me to even make that first phone call. So to thank them i wanted to leave a heartfelt honest review. In hopes that my story might help convince someone else facing very serious DWI charges, to take the leap of faith and choose these two stand up gentlemen. I lost none of the things that were in jeopardy. I received no jail time for a fourth DWI. I'm not proud but doesn't that speaks volumes as to why you would want them on your team.I was facing a fourth DWI conviction with very serious consequences.

Everyone makes mistakes, it takes very special people to see past the bad and recognize the good in you! Make the call! I probably would be in jail or prison right now if i hadn't made that first call. Thanks again guys from the bottom of my heart! I'm forever in debt to you guys.

I hired Lawrence Newman for my personal injury case when I had a car accident and injured my knee. I went through a very long treatment period including knee surgery and months of physical therapy. During this difficult time it was relieving to have Mr. Newman on my side so that I knew I am in professional hands, I didn't have to think about my case and I was able to focus on my healing. Besides him being very knowledgeable, very organized and professional, he cares about your health and well-being first. He explained to me every detail about the case very clearly. He kept me updated all the time and answered all my questions very kindly. He was very realistic about what to expect and that turned out to be true when the case settled recently. It was the best settlement I could get from my case and I wouldn't be able to deal with this without Mr.Newman. He is an outstanding lawyer, I highly recommend Lawrence Newman.

Larry gave a great impression from the moment we sat down and met. After my arrest, I thought my life was over and my future career was in jeopardy. Larry helped ease my anxiety and view it as a "life experience" rather than a necessary, legal obligation. He is always available by phone and open to any question. I wouldn't have wanted any other experience than I got working with Larry- he made me and my family feel hopeful. A friend of mine faced a similar (but lesser) situation ~4 months after my incident and Larry was very open to allowing my friend to reach out with some questions. 2 months after my court date, I still have contact with Larry. He reduced my 5 charges to 1. A very scary experience made truly comfortable.

I received a speeding ticket and contacted Larry. He was extremely helpful in walking me through the process, providing me with the necessary information I needed and was always available to address any questions I had along the way. I would recommend him to anyone in need of this type of service.

Larry provided good, attentive service when I was charged with a DWI in New York and made a difficult situation more comfortable. Nearly seven years later, He also wrote a letter that helped me secure a professional license. He provided the letter immediately and did not accept additional compensation, even though I offered. I recommend and thank Larry.

Although Lawrence was not my direct attorney he offered more reliable and better information than the attorney I've hired. He truly knows his trade and is an excellent source of info.

Larry is an extremely responsive and attentive lawyer. He got things done and helped me out tremendously when I received a DUI charge. He made a terrible situation much better. Although not the cheapest option, Larry will do a great job with you in a quick and efficient manner. My case was resolved in a manner of one month. He is always available and will give you the correct information that you need. I highly recommend.

Larry is very knowledgeable of all the laws pertaining to DWI and could answer any question I had. He always got back to me in a timely manner and was always polite and nice to talk to. He always kept me in the loop of what was going on and whenever I was confused about something, all I had to do was call, text, or email and he would get back to me quickly. If he didnt know the answer to something, he would find it. I would recommend him to anyone.

I am so grateful for the guidance I was given during the DWI process by Larry Newman. He was so kind, knowledgable and gave me hope for a positive outcome when I thought there could not be one. I am very thankful for all his encouragement and insight he gave us. He took so much time to make sure I understood everything we were going through. I would highly recommend Larry Newman when in need of a great attorney, especially DWI

Larry we extremely helpful in guiding me through my DWAI incident. I believe that his proactive methods and knowledge of the New York state legal system really benefited me in helping me receive the best possible outcome.

From the moment I discussed my situation with Larry Newman I had no doubt he was the attorney I needed. He is extremely professional, respectful, sincere, and responsive. Through my entire experience he kept me informed and calm. He went through step by step what I had to do to resolve the situation that i created . I did everything I was advised and the outcome showed that he had all the knowledge and talent that is absolutely needed to resolve a life changing event. I will always appreciate his talent and knowledge. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a attorney.

He was kind, comforting & professional. Mr. Newman did everything he could to realistically and good-naturedly explain the realities of my situation and of course he tried his absolute best on my behalf and I was very satisfied with the outcome of our interaction. I had a DUI and he got me off with simply some fines and a briefly suspended license. No jail, no probation. Without him, I have no idea where I would be today, but I would definitely be in a much worse place. I have e-mailed him with questions relating to the case nearly 5 years after it happened and he still responds promptly and kindly with all the information I need. Highly recommended!!

Larry was an immense help when I ran into some legal troubles right before I was supposed to leave the country for a few months. He remained calm and responsive to me even when I was not as cool and collected. As a college student, he was able to understand my needs and was able to help me only receive an ACD for everything, meaning that I could leave the country without any problems. I would most definitely recommend Larry to anyone who requires legal help.
