Posted by Chris | October 25, 2018 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Professional

I hired Mr. Funk immediately after meeting him for representation in my DUI case due to his emanating aura. His demeanor and knowledge of the law gave me confidence throughout the entire process that, regardless of the outcome of my case, I would be provided with the best representation available. In... the end, I accepted a plea for driving recklessly alchohol related; a conclusion that originally was not even presented as the best possible outcome, leaving me ecstatic. Mr. Funknown delivers, period.

OUTSTANDING

I was charged with felony dui and was facing prison time. I interview 6 different attorneys and was getting prices all over the place. I knew after talking with Alex I was gonna hire him and his price was more than fair. I live in Maryland so it was difficult for me to physically meet with him howev...er Alex and his staff kept me informed every step of the with emails and teleconference. Here is the best part HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING, he was able to get charges reduced to misdemeanor and I ended up only having to serve 10 days vs 3 yrs. no probation. I can't thank him enough and would recommend him to anyone who is facing serious charges he will get the best outcome for you. Thanks again Alex,

AMAZING!!!

July 5th, 2015 I was arrested and charged with a DUI. My BAC was 0.084 and I chose to do all of the field sobriety tests, and the breathalyzer. I was in discourse for months because I was serving on active duty orders at the time, this instance ensured that I would be kicked off of those order, effec...tively placing me on the unemployment line. But Mr. Funk Esq. gave me legal advice and I retained him (he will work with you if you do not have all the money upfront). By January 17th I had been denied multiple high paying jobs due to my background check and had only been to my arraignment and the final court date. Mr. Funk ensured that I retained my drivers licence (I am a PA driver and a reckless driving would have sacrificed my licence per PA law). Mr. Funk worked with the DA and got me a Probation before Judgment deal on a reckless driving, I had to pay a small court fee and in ten days if no other instances occurred during the ten day probationary period then the court would throw out the reckless driving (which it got downgraded to). This was the best option for me, and I am working with Mr.Funk to expunge my record of the instance entirely. Because of him, there is life after a DUI. I have learned from my mistakes and will never have a sip of alcohol and get behind the wheel again. HIRE HIM he knows his stuff. -KSC

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.
