Great job
John got the prosecutor to reduce my charge and saved my job. I highly recommend him. I talked to a few other lawyers before contacting John and they said I would be better off just pleading to the charge. Thankfully I kept looking for someone who would actually represent me and fight the charge.
"John Forristal is an exceptional attorney and I strongly endorse him. I highly recommend John for representation of clients for all criminal matters and in particular, drunk driving/OVI matters."
"Attorney John Forristal is an excellent lawyer. He is thorough, attentive and diligent. He will work your case to achieve the best possible outcome. And he's willing to take your defense to trial if necessary. A great choice for DUI or any criminal defense matter. I highly recommende him."
"John has a phenomenal command of criminal law. He is unquestionably trustworthy and works tirelessly for his clients. I endorse him."

I didn't blow. Odds of a reduced charge? I'm in real estate. I'll loose everything if I can't drive. No priors of any kind.
