Services
Our attorneys share more than 35 years of experience and use that knowledge and insight to benefit clients across Belknap County who have been arrested, are facing a divorce, or have been injured due to the negligent actions of others. We are a results-driven and client-focused firm that takes the time to get to know your unique situation to provide personalized case strategies that prioritize your best interests.
Attorney John J. Bresaw is a native of New Hampshire who grew up in Dover and graduated from Dover High School. John earned his BA in Criminology from the University of Southern Maine, focusing on the complex relations among crime, law, and society. While at the University of Southern Maine, John was a member of the Student Conduct Committee which dealt with potential violations of the Student Conduct Code.
The partners at Friedman & Bresaw share more than 35 years of experience, including knowledge and skills each attorney gained as a public defender in New Hampshire. As a private criminal defense practice, we continue to bring the same zeal for defending our clients as we have always had. Whether your charges are misdemeanors or felonies, we're ready to fight for you.
At Friedman & Bresaw, we believe a single moment shouldn't define the rest of a client's life - especially when that moment involves possession of a controlled substance in Meredith. The state of New Hampshire, however, takes drug possession very seriously - so seriously, in fact, that the likelihood of being charged with a felony is more likely than not.
In New Hampshire, driving while intoxicated (DWI) is more commonly known as driving under the influence (DUI). If you've been arrested for DUI, you're on the hook for an extremely serious criminal charge with life-altering consequences. You may face serious fines and prison time, and you may forever lose your license to drive.

Friedman & Bresaw, PLLC was recommended to me and Mr. Bresaw was the lawyer assigned to my case. My husband and I found him very professional as one would expect. But he was also very caring about my current situation and treated me with care and respect. I would recommend the firm and Mr. Bresaw in particular to anyone needing a lawyer.

️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is what this law firm should get. If you’ve ever had to deal with legal issues and you live in another state you probably know how challenging it can be finding a reputable attorney with a prominent name in the community. All you have to go by is reviews and the daunting task of reading a bunch of law portfolios and have nothing to confirm this information against. Word of mouth is still a big thing in especially in a small county like Belknap. So when your living in Florida you got to just roll the dice an hopefully don’t strike

It is a pleasure to recommend Jesse Friedman. These are some of the qualities that i was looking for when I hired him: Honest (no nonsense) responses, knowledgeable, reliable, thorough, professional and efficient. I hired him acknowledging that the outcome might not be what I wanted. Based on my conversations I knew that I wanted him to represent me irregardless of outcome. There was in fact a positive outcome which I see as miraculous.

Friedman & Bresaw represented me wonderfully and professionally, successfully negotiating the DUI I was charged with down to a minor motor vehicle infraction. I worked with John who was incredibly knowledgeable on the entirety of the court proceedings which also put me at ease considerable. Overall I was provided with fantastic representation and would highly recommended Friedman & Bresaw for those in need of a great team of lawyers.

Attorney Jesse Friedman represented me in a case that was very difficult. He put all the work in that needed to be done, he returned all calls promptly and he was able to navigate us to a deal that was better than I had ever hoped for. In a way, he saved my future. At times I can be high maintenance, but he was patient, polite and honest. I hope this review can help guide someone to his services because I know hiring a lawyer can be a huge leap of faith. You will not be disappointed with Attorney Friedman.
