Driver's License Suspension

Great experience resolving a driver's license suspension as a result of an accident. Cory was excellent at explaining the process, the manner in which he would present the case, and possible outcomes. Preparation was thorough and I was promptly advised as information regarding the case became availab...le. Professional yet personable, I would highly recommend Cory.

Working with Corey was great! Nobody enjoys dealing with the RMV but Corey made it as easy as possible, the case he prepared for the appeal board was very clear and we won our appeal. If I attempted to do this on my own I would still be walking. The price structure was fair and he stayed in constan...t contact thru the whole process. I highly recommend Cory to help you wade through the appeal process knowing you’ve left no stone unturned. He is the real deal!!!

Eased me through a bad situation

Cory was the best lawyer through what was a truly harrowing experience for me. I had never gone through anything like this before, and he walked me through every step of the process, making sure that I understood what was going to happen, what my choices were, and what the consequences of each of tho...se choices would be. Through every step, he made sure that I felt in charge of what direction we were going with my OUI defense, and he never pressured me at all. He explained everything to me, in as much detail as I wanted, making me completely comfortable with the process. He never made me feel like the situation was too large for me to handle, and he never railroaded me into anything I didn't want. All in all, it was a truly consultative experience, and I believe he really had my best interests at heart. In the end, I got an even better result than I thought possible, given the circumstances, and it was all due to Cory's diligence and expertise. I would hands down recommend him to anyone for a defense attorney.

Underage Drinking

Cory helped me with an underage drinking arrest. He helped the charge get dismissed when it was originally brought to court, and was very helpful 7 years later in getting the record sealed (as he mentioned would be
