Mother Grateful after Son's DWI Trial and Not Guilty Verdict

My son was arrested for DUI in NH. He was underage and refused the breathalyzer and field sobriety tests. We are from out of state and knew he needed a lawyer but didn’t know who to turn to. We are grateful that we found Attorney Ted Lothstein. As soon as we contacted him, he responded promptly and explained the situation and all of my son’s options. He made the process easy for us with clear explanations, instructions and honest expectations. Being located out of state was a concern but we were easily able to conduct business through phone, text messages, email and my son was able to appear at his hearing via web cam so he didn’t miss any of his college classes. Most importantly, Attorney Lothstein did an excellent job preparing and presenting the case in court with the optimal result of a not guilty verdict! My son and I are greatly relieved that his arrest record will be annulled and are very appreciative of Attorney Lothstein’s hard work and expertise.

Note from Attorney Lothstein: This testimonial is exactly as sent by client's mother, unedited. The trial occurred in May, 2016 in the Keene Circuit Court. The Keene Police Department charged this young client with DWI, and after trial, Judge Burke found the defendant not guilty.

Motion to Suppress Evidence of Vehicle Stop Results in Dismissal of DWI Charge

This plea saves Client’s commercial driver’s license.

Possession of Drugs with Intent to Sell / Manufacturing Marijuana — Convictions Reversed

In State v. Stephen Socci, No. 2013-182, a decision released on July 8, 2014, the Court held that police officers and state troopers with the Rockingham County Drug Task Force, Kingston Police Department, and Rockingham County Sheriff Department violated Mr. Socci’s Fourth Amendment right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. The officers had marched onto his property without a search warrant, and searched around his garage, finding evidence that he was growing marijuana in the garage. The trial court held that the police did not violate Mr. Socci’s constitutional rights, and upheld the search, causing Mr. Socci to be convicted of two felonies. The Court reversed both felony convictions and remanded for further hearing. Right Vindicated: This case is a huge vindication for the fundamental right of people to be left alone, free of intrusion by the government, on their own property.
