Arrested For A DWI? You Probably Have A Number Of Questions
Member Of The National Top 100 Trial Lawyers
As a Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer, I hear these questions as well as many others every day. The first thing you need to do is relax. Take a deep breath. I know how stressful criminal charges can be. But I’m a firm believer in putting things into perspective. You have merely been ACCUSED of committing a crime. The Presumption of Innocence is the bedrock of our criminal justice system. I will make sure that it is given to you!
Hiring the right criminal attorney is so crucial to a positive outcome. I have been in the criminal law trenches in Suffolk County, Nassau County and New York City for the last 20 years! A lot of lawyers with general practices will dabble in criminal law. Avoid them at all costs. A criminal case is much too serious to leave in the hands of a non-specialist. No matter what your case is, or what’s involved, it won’t surprise me. I have seen it all in the past 22 years.
I’ve forged honorable relationships with both judges and prosecutors. These relationships are incredibly important when it comes to criminal cases. I value them as an asset when representing my clients. I am a Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer with the professional connections and concentrated experience to get you the positive outcome you need.
Any questions that you have, I will answer. I will explain the criminal charges you face as well as potential strategies to win your case! New clients ALWAYS feel better after meeting with me. Information and knowledge are power. After meeting with me, you will fully know and understand the legal concepts involved in your case. You will also realize that there is light at the end of the tunnel, and I will guide you there.
My experience as a Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer is beyond extensive. I have represented thousands of defendants in criminal and driving while intoxicated cases in both Suffolk County and Nassau County courts.
I will create the necessary strategy to defend you in your case. There is no substitute for experience when it comes to a criminal lawyer. Trust your case to a Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer who is confident, aggressive and experienced.

Nothing will deter me from my goal of providing you with a successful defense to your criminal case. I am the Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer to retain when you need results. Don’t hire the family lawyer for your criminal case. You need a criminal defense lawyer with the experience and talent to get the result that you need.
I am a Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer that has handled all levels of criminal cases, from murder cases to misdemeanor DWI cases. I have handled hundreds of drunk driving cases. No case is too big and no case is too small. I will give the same 100% effort whether your case is high-profile or a simple misdemeanor. And that’s because I truly love what I do.
I give my personal cell phone number to all of my clients so that they can contact me at anytime.

Edward Palermo rated Highest SUPERB by AVVO!
This website serves as a resource for anyone in need of criminal or DWI representation. It allows someone charged with a crime to find an experienced criminal defense attorney. I am always happy to meet a new client through my website. So please do not hesitate to call me. I look forward to potentially meeting with you and if retained, doing everything in my power to get you the result you need.
I was selected to the Nation’s Top One Percent by the National Association of Distinguished Counsel, a national association of lawyers. According to the NADC, all selections to the Top One Percent are vetted by a research team, a blue ribbon panel of attorneys and a judicial review board. “By virtue of the incredible selectivity of our appointment process, only the top one percent of attorneys in the United States are awarded membership in the NADC.”
Selection to the Top One Percent is a tremendous honor. As a Riverhead Criminal Lawyer/Riverhead DWI Lawyer, inclusion with the select few prominent lawyers in this association is pretty exciting for me. I continue to give the same level of professional service which has enabled my choice into this prestigious organization of lawyers.
I have never taken on more criminal and DWI cases than I can handle at a time. While I have a support staff which is always available to my clients, I’m the attorney who will personally resolve and take your case to trial if necessary. I’ve seen several so called criminal lawyers practice in volume, taking case after case – biting off more than they can chew so to speak. Criminal lawyers who approach their practice like this cannot give a fraction of the level of service I provide my clients.
Very often, clients will retain me to handle their case after they’ve started off with another attorney. These clients have shown great appreciation for the attention and concentrated effort I bring to the table for them. When you hire Edward Palermo, you get Edward Palermo. I’m direct, one-on-one, and will never hand off your case to another partner of my staff as many attorneys do. You don’t deserve that. You deserve one attorney who can handle your case with flying colors – not a slew of them. This approach to criminal law leaves clients confused, stressed out and worried that they won’t get the legal representation they initially entrusted with their case. That simply won’t happen with me.
