represents a sample of some case results that we have
achieved advocating for our clients:
New Rochelle VTL 1192 (DWAI) Charges Dismissed
State Troopers arrived on the scene of an accident. Our client was outside of the vehicle. Ultimately, a breathalyzer test was
administered and the client “blew” .06. Our office engaged the
services of a prominent DWI expert and prepared to demonstrate
at trial that there was no evidence of operation of the vehicle or
impairment – two required elements of DWAI. Just prior to trial,
Mr. Pettinella negotiated a disposition in which the DWAI charges
were dropped.
Yonkers Harassment Case Dismissed
Our office successfully represented an individual charged with
Harassment stemming from an alleged “incident”. The Police
charged the client despite the lack of any tangible or circumstantial
evidence. After a thorough investigation by our office and preparation
of significant evidence to refute the allegations, the charges were
ultimately dismissed prior to trial
Manhattan Assault Charges Dismissed
Our office represented a teen who was falsely accused of
assaulting a driver following an incident in which the driver
exited his vehicle and attacked the teen and others. The
defense strategy was self defense and our office prepared
to demonstrate that to a jury. Mr. Pettinella
personally visited the scene and after getting approval
from the client, rejected all offers to plead guilty
to reduced charges. The case was ultimately dismissed.
New York City Grand Larceny Sentencing
Mr. Pettinella substituted as counsel for an individual who
had previously entered a plea of guilty to Grand Larceny First
Degree. The favorable sentence promise was contingent upon a
number of factors including payment of restitution. Mr.
Pettinella coordinated the completion of all the required elements,
prepared a sentencing package, and represented the client in
Court on the day of sentencing. The resulting sentence was
the same as the client was promised.
Greenburgh Felony Charges Dismissed
Police charged a college teen with Felony Possession of a
Forged Instrument in the 2nd Degree and Unlawful
Possession of Marijuana. Mr. Pettinella successfully negotiated
An Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal (ACD) for
all charges.
ACD Granted in False Report Case in New Rochelle
New Rochelle Police charged a young teen
with Falsely Reporting an Incident, a misdemeanor.
Our office successfully negotiated an Adjournment
in Contemplation of Dismissal along with
community service.
Rye Alcohol Related Charges Reduced
Rye police charged our client with Unlawfully Dealing with a Child.
It was alleged that our client purchased multiple kegs of beer
for persons under 21 for a party. After multiple appearances, the misdemeanor charges were negotiated to an Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal. A criminal record was entirely avoided.
