criminal possession of firearm

I was charged in Brooklyn, NY for possession of a loaded .357 magnum pistol. The prosecution said my dna was on the gun, Mr Michael represented me at trial and I was found not guilty, I am grateful to him because I am home able to raise my son.

wrongfull DUI arrest

Last year i was arrested on a DUI charge despite blowing under the legal limit on a breath test. Mike was recommend to me through a friend and im so glad he represented me. The case ended up going to trial and we won (not guilty). He is always available for questions and responded very fast, he was p...rofessional and confident in court and really did an amazing job at trial. Get this guy he is awesome

Mr.

Mr. Biniakewitz represented me in a matter where I was accused of a serious violent crime and after showing that I was falsely accused, through no help of the prosecutor's office, I was acquitted and now have my life back! He is truly brilliant and a gifted trial attorney!
