How do I obtain a hardship license in New York State?

I am often asked as a Buffalo DWI Lawyer on how to obtain a hardship license in New York State.  A hardship license is different from a conditional or restricted license.  These are only available within three days of your DWI arraignment.  This is not a guarantee, and only is determined by the court or judge. I advise clients that you will only be able to drive to and from work for 30 days.  However, if you have refused a breathalyzer test or have had another alcohol related conviction in the last five years, you will not be offered this opportunity.

      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.

      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.

      J.N.O.

      Arthur is a life-saver and I mean that literally not figuratively. His credentials speak for themselves and you can tell you’re in experienced, fair and realistic hands the second you begin your initial consultation with him. He’s not only extremely skilled and talented in what he does but you can tell he has a true passion for it as well as helping the people who are lucky enough to be represented by him.

      Highly recommended is an understatement, in my opinion this is the only attorney you need to seek out in the WNY Region if you and your case meet his criteria.
