I had never been arrested before and was frightened about the prospect of going to jail. The prosecutor's office's policy was that I was not eligible for a deferred adjudication, so the case would have stayed on my record forever, preventing me from ever getting a good job. I was very worried during this process, but Nathaniel always made himself available to speak with me and put me at ease. Nathaniel worked hard to show the prosecutors what kind of person I was and worked with the people who knew me to prepare the necessary evidence. Nathaniel was able to get me a three-month pre-trial intervention, which is basically a three month reset after which my case is dismissed and I can get it expunged. Although I did not have to plead guilty, when we went before the judge he told me that this is a very rare and good deal and said my lawyer had done a good job. I recommend Nathaniel to anyone seeking a criminal defense lawyer.
I cannot thank Mr. Pitoniak enough for pretty much saving my young life from being labelled a criminal. It is because of him I will be able to put all of this behind me for the rest of my life. Not only a great attorney, but a great man.

I am fifty five years old, had a clear criminal history, and was charged with a Felony Assault case. I was scared--my job was on the line. I was also afraid of the possibility of going to prison. I hired Nathaniel and he started work quickly. During his investigation, he discovered evidence proving my innocence. He brought this to the attention of the prosecutors who happily dismissed my case. I think it was helpful that he talked to all the people who knew me to guide them through how to prepare an affidavit for my case. My case was dismissed on his first appearance because of all the work he did out of court.

I had no criminal record and I was facing serious immigration consequences if I plead guilty to the crime I was charged with. Nathaniel Pitoniak promised he would do his best for me and worked heard to gather evidence proving what kind of person I was.This case was very important to me because it had serious immigration consequences for me and my family. If I had plead guilty to the crime I was charge with. I would have faced deportation, even if I had taken a deferred adjudication.Nathaniel was able to persuade the prosecutors to grant me pre trial intervention,which was protected my immigration status. I recommend Nathaniel Pitoniak to anyone who wants a hard working and effective criminal defence attorney.
