My dealings with Peter Tilem and is Associates was a pleasant experience, however the case that brought me to him was very unpleasant and unusua.l The case took place in Wallkill Criminal Court. Nonetheless due to his hard work and his experience as an attorney things turned out in my favor. Although I hope I never have a need for his expertise again, should I know someone that needs a competent attorney I would definitely recommend him. His associate Robert who assist in this case was a pleasure to work with. Both attorneys took the time to answer questions, and was always available if not at that precise moment they always returned my calls promptly. M

Peter is literally a miracle worker. He has gotten the best results on my cases in some of the worst courts, like New Rochelle, for example. He is punctual, hard working and honest also. Plus, the judges all seem to know him. He used to be a DA or sumthin... You won't be disappointed!!!

This review is way past due. Peter Tilem expertly and successfully handled my case a few years back. But whenever I fly out of New York, I never fail to remember not only my agonizing experience at JFK, but also the offsetting superb work of Attorney Tilem on my behalf. Stuff can happen to anyone, and when it does you need sharp, capable people in your corner. In my case, after working through the night to finish work prior to an important international business trip, l expected to finally catch some sleep on the long flight and rushed from the office to home to grab clothes, purge my briefcase and then head straight to the airport. Being a business owner frequently working late hours alone at the office, I am also a gun permit holder. Although I was distracted with my work and rushing to catch my morning flight all while on zero sleep, I had the presence of mind to remove my handgun and properly store it in a locked safe at my home before heading to the airport. I am aware of strict NY handgun laws and never for a moment did I consider travelling with my firearm. But, in my state of distraction and haste, somehow I missed seeing a second loaded magazine that had become lodged at the bottom of my briefcase. Airport security certainly didn't miss it, and I was more surprised than they were when, after the usual scan, they went through the contents of my carry-on briefcase and pulled it out. My nightmare had begun. Being a Life Member of the NRA, my first call was to them and they gave me a few suggestions of NY attorneys knowledgeable in firearms laws. As soon as a spoke with Jasmine at Peter's office and then Peter directly, I knew I had the right firm to help me unravel the mess I had inadvertently put myself in. I could not have had any better attorney on my case. Peter not only knew the law cold, he applied the particular circumstances surrounding my case so well he managed to have the case dismissed entirely. I cannot adequately express my gratitude for the outcome he achieved, and I certainly highly recommend Attorney Peter Tilem.

He has handled two traffic tickets for me and both times he got them dismissed. I am very happy with his work and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a good lawyer for traffic violations.

The Tilem group represented me on an eronious cell phone ticket in NYC. The policeman was definitely in the wrong, but without the help of Tilem Law, I would have been saddled with five points. We ended up winning the case. Peter and company did a great job, as they were responsive, professional and effective all the way through.

Peter Tilem represented my husband in a very difficult case which ended in a 100% satisfaction. Peter had answered every one of my questions. When we met him for the first time, we knew that he is going to do his best to solve my husbands problem. He is a professional. I would highly recommend him for DWI cases.

I have hired this firm twice for traffic "situations" Both times the cases were resolved as promised to my great satisfaction, one time the result was way better than I had been promised. They definitely know what they are doing and for sure know their way around the NY Courts, both big and small. I work in the legal field and am a lawyer. I know lawyers, you should hire this firm for sure if you have a motor vehicle matter of any kind.

I am so thankful to God that I found Peter and Hillary! I was unaware that I could not fly out of NYC with my gun, and was arrested! Thanks to Peter and Hillary getting on top of it and giving me the best advice it is now settled with a great outcome. I couldn't be more pleased, not just with my case but how they run their office, if I emailed them or called, they respond with in hours, which to me was amazing. Hillary was not only the associate that represented me but now I consider her a friend. I would recommend them at anytime!! Thanks again!
