Highly recommended Arthur pressman. I don’t live in Buffalo New York but while visiting my family there from Florida. I got pulled over while driving on a, suspended license in Florida. They arrested me and gave me a court date to appear in court and due to me living out of state I just could not afford to go back and forth to buffalo from Florida so that’s when I hired Arthur Pressman. He made sure to handle everything for me and kept me informed with what was going on. I received no points no penalties and the case was dropped. Thank you Arthur pressman your the best. Would definitely recommend you to family and friends.

I was advised by a mutual acquaintance to contact Mr. Pressman following my DWI that I received on December 28, 2015. This was the best advice that I could have been given. He was available immediately to speak with. I was put at ease after speaking with him. It was my first DWI and I had no idea what to expect. It was an isolated case of making a very foolish decision to drive. I had so much anxiety and fear of the unknown. Throughout my whole case Mr. Pressman was very reassuring and kept a positive attitude about what my outcome was going to be. He was available several times when I had random questions and never made me feel like an inconvenience. He was right! My case ended up being reduced to a violation from a misdemeanor and now I can finally begin to have my life back to normal. It was a hard lesson to learn but with the right attorney by your side the transition will be easier.

Arthur Pressman is who you want representing you in court. My son was pulled over and charged with 3 felonies and several misdemeanors. It was a terrible time, with my son arrested and taken to the holding center. I contacted Mr. Pressmant, and it wasn’t long before the felonies were dropped as were some of the misdemeanors. My son is now getting the help he needs. Mr. Pressman is highly respected in the court system. I am very thankful for what he was able to do. We felt like we were living a nightmare but things turned around and got better because of him. He is very professional but also a genuine nice person . I highly recommend him.

Probation is a court-ordered punishment and must be taken seriously. If you have been convicted of a crime, you may be sentenced to probation as all or part of your punishment. Probation is ordered by the court, and its terms vary in length depending on the charges against you. Judges use probation as a means to ensure that you act with a certain level of responsibility. Probation gives you a second chance to abide by the law. In addition, probation is often used as an alternative to incarceration when negotiating a plea bargain. If you have violated your probation, Buffalo Criminal Defense Lawyer Arthur L. Pressman has the experience you need to negotiate with the court and improve your chances of turning the circumstances of a probation violation in your favor.

Helping you gradually regain your freedom, one step at a time
Probation requires regular meetings with an assigned probation officer who monitors your progress and administers any court-required tests, such as random drug tests, your participation in court-ordered drug or alcohol programs and any required community service. In addition, you must follow very specific rules and requirements as outlined in your terms of probation. All activities are strictly monitored and restricted during your probation period, including your ability to change jobs, move or leave the state without permission. It is important to have a Buffalo probation violation lawyer on your side.
What if you can’t make a probation appointment?
Individuals usually begin probation with the best intentions. However, as time passes, the challenges of daily life, work commitments, child commitments or lack of transportation can pose a problem in attending the scheduled meeting with your probation officer. The most common reason for violating probation is missing a scheduled probation appointment.
Courts do not look favorably on your probation violation
Violating probation is a very serious charge — one on which the court does not look very favorably. Penalties for violating probation can be harsh, especially if you are a repeat offender. If you have been convicted of violating probation, you can benefit from the strong legal defense that an experienced Buffalo criminal defense lawyer, such as Arthur L. Pressman, can provide.
