Quick, Fast & Done.

I was so nervous when we got pulled over and my husband was charged with a small amount of medical Marijuana and paraphernalia. When we went to the preliminary hearing, Alan went back and talked to the state trooper involved (who I must say was very professional in his approach with us from the begin...ning). By the time he got done talking to the state trooper and the judge, both counts were reduced to a disorderly conduct and we just had a fine to pay. Alan also spent some time with us explaining the law so that we were better informed about the laws behind Medical Marijuana, use, DUI, travelling with and possession of, and testing for. Alan knows his job and is very professional, and he will now be the first person we call about anything we have questions about regarding the law. Thanks Alan, we appreciate you!

Job Well Done!!!!!!

Alan was the best!! He's very professional and has a great personality. He is a respectful, kind and makes you feel that you are his main priority. He answered emails and phone calls promptly and kept me informed of all possibilities. Alan was able to negotiate a no incarceration sentence for ...a 2nd DUI in less than 2 years at the highest level of punishment. I was facing up to 30 days of incarceration. I received House arrest with no electronic monitoring. Please do not hesitate to hire him, he will be able to assist you and tell you which avenue would be best for you.

Very Knowledgeable & Great Representation!

Mr. Ross is a great lawyer, he always treated my case like it was his top priority! I was facing 7 charges, the Marijuana Dui being there most severe. I was not eligible for their ARD program because of a previous charge. This was very devastating because I am involved in many school activities and ...youth programs in our community as a coach and volunteer. With Mr. Ross's knowledge and expertise, he was somehow able to get all 7 charges reduced to 1. I became eligible for the ARD program and upon completion, I will be able to continue my volunteering and coaching in my community. I am extremely appreciative to Mr.Ross and will always recommend him to anyone in need of legal services. He truly treated me like a person and not another case.

Highly Recommended Attorney

I highly recommend Mr. Ross. I facing 90 days mandatory for a second offense DUI, highest tier and received a sentence of 4 months house arrest and no jail time. Mr. Ross took the time to explain everything to me in detail and make sure I understood what I was facing. He definitely exceeded my expect...ation. I highly recommended hiring Mr. Ross.

Great DUI attorney

Mr Ross helped me dramatically. I was within 10 years of my first DUI and he was still able to still get me into ARD! Very personable and easy to deal with. Highly recommended.
