This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

avoid this lawyer

I made the mistake of hiring this attorney. He did nothing for my case. In fact i feel he hurt my case. He also was extremely rude. I felt like he was bullying me through the process but at the time i was more concerned with the case and wanted the best help i could get so i remained subordinate. ... During the court process there was an error made that i feel violated my rights. This man did nothing to capitalize on the mistake. I lost my case very badly. I wouldn't even mind if i just lost but i also had to take verbal abuse from him along the way. Sometimes i think about it and i get sick thinking about how this attorney flushed 2k of my money down the toilet. Keep looking

Great DUI attorney

Mr. Reisig did a wonderful job. I was looking at a very bad DUI and he got it brought down to the lowest level. If you need a DUI attorney call Mr Reisig first.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
