Lawrence A. Newman

I hired Larry after being charged with DWAI drugs, two charges of CPCS 7th, uninsured motor vehicle and unsafe lane departure. I was in active addiction when the incident resulting in these charges occurred, following the arrest I went to inpatient rehabilitation and relocated. Larry ensured I did no...t have to come back to upstate New York any more than absolutely necessary. Larry counseled me and ensured I understood the charges and potential consequences throughout the entire process. I was able to call him; ask any questions or verbalize any concerns I had and get a response, typically he answered the phone when I called, within hours at most. Ultimately Larry was able to have the two CPCS 7th charges, violation of unsafe lane departure and uninsured motor vehicle dropped and I ended up pleading to DWAI drugs. Following me pleading guilty to DWAI drugs I had to have a PSI/presentence investogation), something Larry had explained to me early on, with the probabtion department where I relocated to. The probation department where I relocated to is known for being very strict with driving under the influence charges; therefore they reccommeded incarceration and probation. Larry was able to explain the strict nature of the probabtion department in the area I relocated to so the Judge could understand. I ended up being sentenced to 2 years probation, what I consider to be the best possible outcome. I am a licensed professional and my license just came up for renewal as well, Larry has been walking me through the process of renewing my license with this new charge on my record. He has continued to always be available and answer all questions I have in a concise and clear manner. I am so very thankful to Larry for going above and beyond; he did an amazing job and continues to be there for me as a client even though my court case is technically settled.

When I first met with Mr Newman he kept talking about how he could get the case dismissed. He did an excellent job of pointing out all the officers mistakes. His knowledge and confidence sold me. After my first court date he continued to provide me with reassurance and made me feel very comfortable. ...After 3 months of court dates and continually telling me that he is fighting for me Larry suddenly told me we had no shot of winning and that the DA was getting upset with how long the case was going on and that I should just take a plea deal so that I didn't upset them further and get a more severe penalty. I would of had the same results with a court appointed attorney. One of the biggest dissapointments was that when I did plead guilty and sentenced he simply said good luck to me and that he had to go. He was in his car before I left the courtroom. Another attorney there was kind enough to explain what I needed to do from that point.

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 consulte...d 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.

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 i...n a manner of one month. He is always available and will give you the correct information that you need. I highly recommend.
