About Gerald V. Benyo, Jr.
Being arrested is not fun. Nobody wakes up and decides today is a good day to commit a crime, get arrested and go to jail. You are not a bad person for being arrested. Sometimes things happen without warning and events get out of hand. You end up being arrested, handcuffed, and maybe taken to jail. When this happens the only intelligent action is to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney. Every day I defend ordinary people accused of crimes. There's an advantage to hiring a local attorney who regularly litigates criminal cases. A good trial attorney knows the judge's habits and district attorney’s strengths and weaknesses. I am that criminal defense attorney. If the district attorney knows your attorney won't take your case to trial - or does not have a record of winning cases - there is little incentive to offer the best plea bargain. I take cases to trial and am known to win cases in Western Pennsylvania. Attorney Benyo. Experienced. Educated. Detail oriented. Successful.

Oral Fluid Testing: Roadside vs. Evidential Analyses
09/02/2025
Written by Ashley M. Hart As cannabis is being decriminalized in many states, there has been increased interest in rapid roadside tests to detect THC and other substances for intoxicated driving charges. A majority of states now have oral fluid testing in some form: roadside (presumptive) or evidential (confirmed in a lab).
