DUI case

I had a two open DUI cases, with the potential for one to require 6 months in jail and a 10 year loss of my driving privileges. In addition I had 16 other charges in regards to one of the cases. Mr. DePersia took the case and immediately put me at ease. He was honest with me about what I was facing b...ut also confident he would keep me out of jail. In the end Mr. DePersia got all my charges dismissed and ended it in a second DUI case. I have no jail time and my lisence will back 8 years sooner then if I didn’t have his help. I highly recommend Mr. DePersia for a lawyer who knows the law and can organize the best defense possible.

God sent!

This lawyer was a wonderful man who kept me outof jail for my 3rd dui by going back to my first dui and proved to the judge I was not. Offered representation at that time of my first dui. He took payments for his representation of my case. He worked hard for me and I would recommend him for anyone s...eeking a great lawyer!

  • 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.
