Confident, aggressive, charismatic, very intelligent Lawyer with quick, sharp responds that made prosecutors and police officers looks like lost, lonely kids in the middle of nowhere. During trial he fought with courage and passion. I'm satisfied and thankful for his help, effort and work he did for ...me.

I recently hired Harold Garfinkel in November of 2013 for a speeding ticket, reckless driving charge and Hal was great from the start. Not only did Hal walk through with me the possibilities I had but he was more than confident that we would win. He was accessible anytime I needed him and he was th...orough in explaining to me how the system works. On the day of trial (today) the state prosecuting attorney wanted us to take a plea deal and Hal said no way we will win. I watched perfection in the courtroom today. Hal not only presented an amazing case but he dismantled the prosecution's attack. Even with the evidence of a DVD from the prosecuting attorney, Hal Garfinkel fought hard and cross examined the trooper and questioned the prosecuting attorney's case. I walked away today a free man, with my license and no marks on my record. Something that would have been a revoked license or higher fines Hal got all charges dropped and the fine was reduced while being ethical/professional and finding holes in the prosecution's argument(s). I would recommend Harold Garfinkel to anyone. He is hands down, THE BEST. Thank you Hal.

I needed representation in regards to a felony that I was being prosecuted for. I interviewed four high profile attorneys that all promised to be able to assist me in getting the best results. But none of them had a strategy or plan to present to me. I then met Hal Garfinkel. He was different (in... a good way) from the moment I met him then any other attorney I interviewed. He did not judge and he discussed with me his plan and ideas. He was available when I needed him and he truly cared about me and my family regardless of the unfortunate situation that I had put myself in. The prosecutor requested that I serve 6- 10 years and even tried some underhanded ways to get this punishment. Mr. Garfinkel used his experience and abilities to get the state and judge to see the truth of the case and in turn fought for me and my rights. I received two years probation and had a class x moved down to a class 2. If I can give any advise to someone who needs a criminal attorney, shop around and do call Mr. Garfinkel. He will fight for you and will be honest and do everything he can for you.

I had the pleasure of becoming acquainted with Mr Garfinkel in the most unpleasurabale of situations. I was facing a drug possession case in a county that not only was hard on defense but extremely hard on drugs and non cituzens . couple that with today's guilty until proven innocent approach to pros...ecution and adjudication. I was definetly in a squeeze. I had hired one "attorney" who was already wealthy enough and known enough that he didn't need to win any big cases. He just thought getting a lower offer than the state presented was being a great lawyer. He never talked to me at all and just kept continuing. I fired him and got another lawyer who although he really believed I shouldn't do a day didn't think I could avoid it in that county so a cap at 9 was great. God removed him from my service by giving him a prosecuters job. Then I was blessed with Mr Garfinkel! He told me from the first day he cared about my life! That he would do everything in his power to make sure I didn't do a day in jail! He was persistant aggressive and firm with the prosecution! He never tried to lead me to give up he informed me of every offer and when it came time to hear motions he was more than prepared! He studied my case and revealed the states flaws and inconsistencies. He looked for where I was the victim in the eyes of the law. He righted the injustice of my arrest and saved my life! Harold Garfinkel is a true student and wielder of justice! If you have a criminal case and the means save your life hire Mr Garfinkel. I and my family will always be grateful I did!
