BEST CRIMINAL LAWYER AROUND - YOU MUST CALL IF YOU GET IN TROUBLE

Howard Weintraub is masterful in the courtroom. This is as I perceived him as he deposed the arresting officer who mas moving to Afghanistan and the State moved to have his testimony preserved in my DUI/Less Safe Court case. He knew everything to ask and ascertain from the officer and was bold and ag...gressive in the treatment of Henry County's court system. His New York style and sense of humor made me feel like I was in the winning scene from "My Cousin Vinny". He was totally prepared and didn't hesitate to discredit the officer's testimony by any and all means. Howard wanted to take my case to court but in my best interest he was able to plea the charge down to reckless driving. I believe with a fair jury selection Howard could have won the case. He was not willing to take the chance however, that Henry County could lock me up for an extended time and impose all their punishments that they would have. The mere fact that Howard got the charges dropped to reckless driving speaks of the hard work that Howard and his associate Ben Alper had done as Henry County never wants to let anything go. Howard kept me informed throughout the affair of my case. He was always very kind and sympathetic about my case and answered all my questions and addressed my concerns through his knowledge and wisdom of the law. I would highly recommend Howard and his team to anyone who finds themselves in trouble with a DUI arrest. My only regret during the process was that I did not get to see Howard perform during a jury trial. I have no doubt that he would have made me see legal magic. Thank you to Pat, his legal secretary who called me numerous times and took many of my phone calls and relayed messages. Thanks to Ben, Howard's associate for being so cool during my plea bargain. Trust me, my stress was less. Again, a personal, heartfelt thank you, Howard for working so hard for me.

An Honest, Dependable, Knowledgeable, and Caring Attorney

Mr. Weintraub was the 3rd attorney I interviewed and he was the most affordable attorney out of the 3. Howard Weintraub is honest, dependable, knowledgeable and caring towards his clients. I was looking at 51 months in prison but because of the efforts of Mr. Weintraub and Mr. Alper, I was able to ...get only 36 months. Mr. Weintraub was prompt in returning calls and emails and I have nothing but the best to say about him. Thanks to Mr. Weintraub and his office, the outcome of my case turned out better than we hoped and I would strongly recommend Howard Weintraub to anyone needing a criminal defense attorney.

son's life and career saved

Howard and his entire team are OUTSTANDING. I can't imagine being in better hands in a court of law. He earned every penny of his fee. Howard, You saved my son's life and I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH! He put himself in a terrible position and being in the medical industry if he was convicted, in ...addition to facing jail time his career would have been over. I am not sure if he could have survived if that had happened. You were there for us when we most needed you. You are so compassionate that I wonder if you first went to school for social work - just kidding. You did talk me in off the ledge and and gave me confidence that you were the one to retain for my son. Your entire staff, especially Ben are OUTSTANDING. It would be my pleasure to speak to anyone who is considering you for their defense. THANK YOU MY FRIEND, Carl

17 year old charged with possession/intent to distribute

Howard came highly recommended as our family found ourselves in need of a criminal attorney. From the outset, Howard's demeanor is professional yet "down to earth." Our family immediately felt that we were in good hands. Howard is not your stereotypical lawyer. His geniune concern/attention to our ca...se was very comforting. In addition, Howard is unique in that he is not a 9-5 type of lawyer. It was not uncommon to get a phone call from him before or after business hours on many days. He was senisitive to the urgency of our case and agreed to meet us on a holiday weekend. This spoke volumes to the type of lawyer that he is. Our son was driving someone elses car which contained marijuana, a scale and bags. Based on the fact that it was not his car coupled with a successful polygraph, Howard was able to get the criminal charges against our son dropped. I would recommend Howard highly to anyone who is looking for a criminal lawyer who will work as hard on your case, as if it was his very own.

: Masterful Representation Saved My Son From Prison Time

Howard Weintraub represented my son in an unfortunate accidental discharge of a weapon in 2005 while he was on school premises. During the inspection of a gun, my son inadvertently discharged the weapon. He was subsequently arrested for carrying a gun within school safety zone, reckless conduct, and ...discharging a firearm in public. My son was in his early twenties and he was facing time in prison. Howard Weintraub worked hard to reduce the charges and my son was fortunate to serve probationary time without any imprisonment . We appreciate the hard work, dedication and professionalism of Howard Weintraub to grant our family and my son a second chance in life. We are forever grateful to Howard. He is the best!!!.
