Couldnt ask for a better outcome

I had a very bad 4 month period where I accumulated 10 traffic tickets including 2 misdemeanors and failed to appear for all. Facing multiple warrants, I hired Mr. Weinstock to avoid being jailed. In the end, i paid fines but avoided jail, got no points and received good advice on how to avoid this s...ituation in the future. Throughout the process, i was treated with respect and communication was clear on the possible outcomes. If your reading this Michael, Thank you again.

Exceptional dedication and service

I'll start by explaining how I met Counselor Weinstock... I had a terrible lapse in judgment while dealing with a personal crisis and was being charged with a DWI. This was my second in 9 years and I was looking at jailtime, a felony, and probation. The most devestating to my personal and profession...al career would be the jail time; 6 months. From the start the my case was at the least, near impossible to obtain the disposition of community service in leu of the jailtime I most desperately sought to avoid. I was not looking to shirk my debt for violating the law, just repay in a manner not crippling to my future. Couselor Weinstock went over my goals with me and( very accurately in hindsight) and gave me the realistic outlook of what to expect. His preparation and honest, brass tax assessment of my case reflected not only a man of integrity and character, but of wisdom, and resourcefulness. He outlined what was to come, our strategy for my defence, and realistic expectations for an outcome. I knew always what was happening, any developments or progress made, and never felt afraid or unsure of what the standing was of my case. Due to his diligence, and determination, a plea with NO, ... NO jailtime was reached. Without him, I would have been lost in the seemingly overwhelming legal system, or left wanting for a proper defender. Counselor Weinstock worked with me emotionaly, finacialy, and sincerely every step of my journey. He obtained the oportunity for me to rebuild my life and make the happy, healthy, law abiding future I desire. I would recommend him, absolutly to anyone in need of proper legal defense, and a non judgmental, non biased legal proffessonal.

Put your mind at ease

I met Michael after I was arrested for a DWI. He immediately put me at ease and made it possible for us to form a bond. Michael guided me through the challenges of meeting the obligations necessary to satisfy the state's demands. He was there with me at every court appearance and worked quickly to s...ettle my case minus many restrictions. I highly recommend Michael, as he is an excellent attorney.

Excellent lawyer and person

Michael Weinstock defended me for a felony DWI and Leandra's Law. During a long, painful process he treated me with respect and kindness. He gave me immediate time and attention when I had concerns. My case was resolved to the best of his abilities, something even the judge noted. I highly recommend ...him.
