Top lawyer in the field, I owe him my freedom!

Dean represented me for a serious drug distribution case. Somehow he got the prosecutor to come off the Brimage mandatory sentencing guidelines and kept me out of jail. Thanks Mr. Schneider!! You're the best!

Almost an ugly divorce

My divorce had become extremely messy. Dean stepped in for another lawyer and now my ex-husband is paying exactly what he should! Dean was a pleasure!

Mr. Schneider is the best criminal defense attorney around!

Mr. Schneider handled a very serious drug possession and distribution case for me at the end of 2014. I was looking at State Prison time, he was able to get the results of the illegal search by the cops suppressed. We won the case, he helped me find treatment and I am healthier and happier today th...an I have been in years. Thanks Mr. Schneider!!

Dean helped me through the most serious trouble of my life...

Dean Schneider was my attorney for a very serious criminal matter. He was responsive the entire time and never left me wondering what was happening with my case. He even managed to get me two less years of time than I had bargained for, his sentencing argument was masterful. I would recommend him ...to absolutely anyone. 5 STARS!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
