So, Why Should I Hire Attorney Brian Sloan over all the other lawyers?
This is a question many people might ask themselves, and the answer is quite simple. If you are charged with DUI, you want a DUI Attorney who SPECIALIZES and SOLELY FOCUSES ON DUI Defense Representation.
I am part of a rare breed of Attorneys who focus solely on DUI Defense Representation. There are about half a dozen of us in Arizona.
Nearly every other "DUI Lawyer" handles numerous other types of offenses. Looking at nearly any other lawyer's AVVo account, and you will see they practice numerous areas of the law. Every other type of case they represent - Civil, Criminal, Divorce, Wills & Trusts, etc. - takes them away from concentrating on DUI Defense, and being up-to-date on the latest changes in DUI Representation.
I focus my legal practice on DUI Defense Representation ONLY.
Just as you wouldn't want a Podiatrist (foot doctor) to conduct brain surgery on you - despite that they are both doctors - if you are charged with a DUI, you want an Attorney who has spent their career focusing on and is a Specialist in DUI Defense Representation.
I have spent the past 19+ years focusing solely on DUI Defense Representation, and have personally defended more than 4,400 DUI clients. I am also one of the most award-winning DUI Lawyers in the state, acknowledged by numerous independent agencies as the 'Top in the Field.'
I have done 100+ Felony & Misdemeanor trials, and received numerous Not Guilty Verdicts, Judgments of Innocence, Guilty on Lesser Included Offenses, and Granted Plea Deviations.
I am rated 10-out-of-10 on ; 4.9 out of 5.0 on Martindale Hubbell; I am the recipient of the SuperLawyers Southwest Rising Star Award for five years in a row; named one of the Top Lawyers several years by North Valley Magazine; named one of the Top 100 Lawyers by Arizona Finest Lawyers; acknowledged as a Top 100 Trial Lawyer Nationally by National Trial Lawyers, and was named one of Arizona's Top 40 Lawyers Under 40 by National Trial Lawyers and American Society of Legal Advocates.
I was acknowledged as a Top 10 DUI Lawyer in Arizona by National Academy of Criminal Defense Attorneys, was the Featured Cover Attorney of Attorney at Law Magazine in August, 2013, and was also recognized as an "Attorney to Watch in 2015" by Attorney at Law Magazine in December, 2014.
I was recognized as part of the "Top One Percent in the Nation" of Defense Lawyers by National Association of Distinguished Counsel for several years. And in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, I was named one of less than ten "SuperLawyers in DUI Defense" amongst ALL the lawyers in Arizona and New Mexico, by Thomson Reuters.
All my accomplishments are too many to list on here, but they are listed at my law firm website: A r i z D U I . c o m
I am a founding member of The Arizona DUI Team, and offer Experienced, Quality DUI Representation at a very reasonable price. My Legal Fee Agreements offer flat fees, payment plans, and a Free 'In-Depth' Consultation. There are no hidden fees, and my clients are clear about my representation.
I have been described as "honest," and a "straight-shooter." I am not a person who will only tell you what you want to hear, or feed you false hope or false information, just to get you to sign up with me or get more money out of you. You will hear the truth from me, and my honest opinion, so you can then make an informed decision on how you want to move forward or resolve your case.
I have also developed an innovative form of Legal Representation that I call 'Bifurcated Representation,' which is unlike any other. It is very beneficial for my clients, and ensures that my clients pay a very reasonable flat legal fee, while not paying me for busy work.
These core values have led to my success with my clients, with the prosecutors, and with the courts.
I offer my legal services in the representation of Misdemeanor offenses in the following areas:
People who do their research find me. People who interview multiple lawyers tend to hire me. And people who want to fire their lawyers due to incompetence or lying to them seem to want me to take over their cases after spending thousands of dollars on their previous, attorney. Save yourself the headache, and unnecessary spending of money on the wrong lawyer, and give me a call on my personal cell phone: 4 8 0 - 7 2 0 - 7 8 3 9.
