Exceeded expectations !

I was facing a DUI w/crash in Dauphin County. Mr. Lysaght explained what I should do proactively to minimize any penalties. I refused the breath test and is not my first one. When it was all said and done, I ended up with a month of house arrest. He truly saved my job/home/family ! Stephanie is ...great to work with, as well. Thank you, sincerely !

simply the best

I chose Lysaght Law because I wanted results. I got what I needed with them! Excellent service, response that is uncommon today. For a winning team, and outstanding results, there is only one choice.

excellent dui attorney

I highly recommend Attorney Gary Lysaught as a DUI attorney. He and his paralegal, Stephanie, are vey knowledgeable about both PA DUI laws and Dauphin County court system. Attorney Lysaught is forthcoming in his advisement of the charges and the planned defense.

  • 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.
