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.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #9c4018; font-size: 130%;">Crystal B.</span></p> </div> <style> #col-1540141954 > .col-inner { padding: 30px 30px 25px 30px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } </style> </div> </div> <div class="row" id="row-1763667605"> <div id="col-98237418" class="col small-12 large-12" > <div class="col-inner" > <div class="is-border" style="border-color:rgb(166, 72, 8);border-width:5px 5px 5px 5px;"> </div> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-20918 aligncenter" src="https://www.arthurpressmanlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/5-Stars-01.png" alt="" width="300" height="100" /></p> <div class="mk-testimonial-content"> <div class="mk-testimonial-content"> <p class="mk-testimonial-quote">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.
