Criminal Defense 40%

Starting my career as a prosecutor has enabled me to view a criminal case from both sides. I'm able to effectively dissect the details of each case, while examining the matter from a prosecutorial perspective and a defense standpoint.

40%
DUI and DWI 40%

DUI cases are won and lost on filing Motions to Suppress: Maybe the stop was illegal. Maybe the arrest was unconstitutional. Maybe the police forced you to give blood. The details in a DUI case are critical to winning your case.

40%
Speeding and Traffic Ticket 10%

Traffic citations can be devastating for people, especially those who drive for a living. Rather than simply paying the ticket, we have the right to go to traffic court and fight the ticket to save points on your license and premiums on insurance.

WORST LAWYER IN BUCKS

By far the worst lawyer ive ever hired...he talks a good gane but is only about the buck...on two duis i served 4 and a half years upstate thanks to a 2-5 year sentence he got me. He made sure our case was heard by the toughest judge in bucks county, judge Gibbons and he didnt even make an attempt fo...r a county sentence or let me speak at my hearing. I felt completely hopelesss cause i didnt hire a lawyer who actually cared. Do not hire this man unless your ready to serve time.

Hi Michael, I do not recall this matter at all. No client of mine ever served such a prison sentence for a DUI-related offense, nor has any client of mine ever indicated to me or my team such dissatisfaction not only with the outcome but of our handling of the case in general. All of my clients have my personal, private cell phone number. If you were a past client, I strongly encourage you to please contact me to discuss this more fully. Thank you very much. Paul

Highly recommend

Very attentive and highly professional. Demonstrates deep knowledge of the law and genuinely cares about the client’s best interests. I highly recommend!

Excellent attorney who truly cares about his clients?

Paul and his assistant Shana were always available to me throughout this process via text message ,email and of course phone calls. He is an attorney that cares about his clients. I knew nothing about him. I had a DUI in Pennsylvania. I live in New Jersey and I just searched for an Attorney and lucki...ly, I ended up with Paul. I highly recommend him in that he used his knowledge and abilities to get my DUI downgraded for time served in rehab centers. The news came as quite a relief in that I was seriously concerned about doing jail time.. William “Bill” DeMato

Excellent at what he does

Paul Mallis is such a professional upstanding person. I am a client who got into a serious manner and for over a year Paul has been fighting for me. He helped me navigate through the turmoil in my life. He’s an honest lawyer and will work hard for his clients. I will still have Paul on retainer and r...ecommend him to anyone in need of a great defense lawyer.

Perfect Lawyer for Challenging Cases

Paul Mallis and I worked on multiple cases together over the past three plus years. Paul is very knowledgeable in his area of expertise. Just when I thought there may not be any hope of me getting justice, he worked his magic and my final case turned in my favor. Paul is very professional, ...compassionate, and is passionate about his work. Paul guided me with ease through each step of the legal processes, proceedings. Paul and his team even acted proactively in one of my cases. This action kept me from potentially experiencing seriously legal challenges. He demonstrates excellence in everything he does. I highly recommend Paul Mallis for your legal needs.

"I highly endorse and recommend Paul Mallis on his professionalism and competency in handling DUI/DWI criminal matters. I am a partner of a mid-sized civil law firm and have been asked on several occasions by clients or their family members if I can recommend to them a criminal lawyer. On the occasions I have provided Paul's contact information, I've received exceptional client feedback on the counsel Paul has provided.
