4 Can I schedule a consultation with a legal consultant?

Yes. Attorney Garofalo offers a free initial consultation to all prospective clients. During this consultation, he reviews the details of your situation, explains the applicable New York traffic or DWI laws, and outlines the realistic options available to you. There is no obligation to proceed after the consultation, and you will not be charged for the initial discussion.

5 How do I know if I need legal representation?

If you have been issued a traffic ticket, charged with a DWI or DUI offense, or notified of a pending license suspension in New York, legal representation is strongly worth considering. Attorney Garofalo can review your specific circumstances and advise you honestly on whether fighting the charge is in your best interest.
