There is simply no one else to trust with DWI or other criminal charges in Nassau County than this attorney.
“Kimberly told me she thought I could get my DWI reduced and and the other charge dismissed or reduced. I was skeptical, but I hired her because I thought she was my best shot at getting out of this alive without a criminal record. She did just that. Months”
