Criminal Defense 40%

Starting my career as a prosecutor has enabled me to view a criminal case from both sides. I'm able to effectively dissect the details of each case, while examining the matter from a prosecutorial perspective and a defense standpoint.

40%
DUI and DWI 40%

DUI cases are won and lost on filing Motions to Suppress: Maybe the stop was illegal. Maybe the arrest was unconstitutional. Maybe the police forced you to give blood. The details in a DUI case are critical to winning your case.

40%
Speeding and Traffic Ticket 10%

Traffic citations can be devastating for people, especially those who drive for a living. Rather than simply paying the ticket, we have the right to go to traffic court and fight the ticket to save points on your license and premiums on insurance.

Great lawyer to work with!

If you’re looking for a caring, energetic and diligent DUI lawyer that enjoys his profession then Paul is your guy. Unfortunately for me I had been charged THREE times of this offence. Fortunately, Paul was by my side each time giving me the best representation in court. From that point on, I can’t s...ay I was totally relieved but I knew that I was in great hands. His previous experience as an assistant DA has given him a wealth of knowledge and insight in dealing with these and other cases. I have had consultations with numerous highly rated lawyers before. The feeling I received after each one was that they weren’t up to putting their necks and reputation on the line or have already prejudged me from my actions. When introducing the case, Paul understood where I was coming from and was treated like a human being; which was grateful. There will be times of silence before the court date but rest assured that Paul and his team are working behind the scenes preparing your case. He will break everything down into layman’s terms: all your options, the different paths the case may proceed or conclude at. He was able to close out my cases with great results each time. However, this may not be the same for everyone with the situation you’re in. Overall, I appreciate the hard work Paul and his team have done. Paul will take care of you and that’s a fact! To know that there are still decent people out there is very reassuring. It’s just too bad that we had to meet under these circumstances.

We chose Mr. Mallis as our attorney based off of his credentials, and he did not disappoint. I was facing a possible suspended license and five points on my record. During our consultation he was confident he could get the punishment reduced to only three points and no suspension. The day of the hear...ing, he negotiated an even better deal. My license wasn’t suspended and I didn’t receive any points! I only had to pay the fine, which I was happy with. Paul is very knowledgeable and explained to us the offense, and the penalties associated with it. He answered every question we had. Mr. Mallis is also very nice. This was my first time in a situation like this and he could tell I was nervous. He assured me I was in good hands and that he would take care of me, which he did. If you need an attorney to represent you for a traffic offense, I highly recommend Mr. Paul Mallis.

Clients mother

Paul Mallis is an awesome lawyer. I recommend if you need representation to call Paul. My son had two criminal cases where he was pulled over and was in possion of marijuana both times. My son received about eight criminal charges but with Paul's representation my son does not have a criminal record ...and all the charges were dropped. My son only ended up with a summary offence which he received a $100 fine plus court cost. Paul not only saved my son from having a criminal record he save my sons job due to the fact that my sons license didnt get suspended. The charges he had could of messed up his life and he could went to jail but thankfully Paul knew the law and helped my son!

Perfect attorney and reason why

Paul was very very informative and positive about my first ever criminal charge.! And he was dead on! It went from looking like two felony charges with possible jail, he assured me he would get it dropped to misdemeanor and kicked to ard and no record after 12 Monthes of call I. Probation.. he did ex...actly what he said and exactly for the charge he quoted.. he explained everything perfect and answered any and all my questions and kept not just me but my wife in constant communication as to what was next. Comes highly recommended would use him again for myself or my family in a heart beat.

Excellent Representation

Paul's representation in our son's criminal defense was excellent. Our son was facing serious criminal charges with maximum jail time. Paul provided his expert knowledge of the law. His previous experience as an Assistant District Attorney helped us to understand the procedures and penalties for what... was forthcoming. He never gave gave us false hope, just the facts. His expertise truly shined during our son's trail. He presented a very strong case to the Judge and jury. During the sentencing phrase, our son was facing serious jail time, Paul was able to portray to the Judge circumstances which allowed our son to be set FREE!!!!!!! Once again we thank Paul for his services and recommend him highly to anyone that would require his services..
