Stanley R Pietruska

Mr. Pietruska got me out of a really bad situation I put myself in. I received a DUI in a central New Jersey town. I had been drinking at a bar in Woodbridge and while I was buzzed I was not wasted, I got in my car to head home and I end up passing some buddies hanging outside a friend’s house on a residential side street I pull over and stupidly park facing the wrong way and greet my friends. I then get out and continue to get my drink on standing right in front of my buddies house. About 20 minutes later the cops come and of course they ask us all if we have been drinking, which its obvious we have as some of us are holding our beer bottles. They then turn their attention to me when they see my car parked the wring way. They give me a field sobriety test and arrest me for DUI. I consulted with Mr. Pietruska and three other lawyers. They all told me I was facing 3 to 7 months suspension at a minimum but only Mr. Pietruska questioned whether the arrest and charges were valid. I really liked what I heard so I went with him. He said that the police did not have probable cause to arrest me for DUI as they never saw me actually driving. Despite the fact that the police said I «had to get there somehow», he went to court with me 3 times and finally convinced the judge and prosecutor to throw the charges out saying the state could not prove that I had been drinking before I parked the car the wrong way. I paid the court nothing, zip, nada. I have learned my lesson and won’t be drinking and driving again. If you ever need a lawyer, I highly recommend Mr. Pietruska. His price was very fair and he is really good and knows his way around a courtroom.
