Terrific Lawyer

Given the situation and the amount of evidence the state prosecutor had against me. Mike was terrific in pleading my case and keeping me out of jail. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. I would definitely recommend him to anyone facing DUI or DWI charges.

Another Best Possible Outcome

I've worked with Michael Garagozlo a few times and he's always gone above and beyond my expectations! This time he defended me in a possession of CDS and possession of paraphernalia case. The final outcome was I only plead guilty to the paraphernalia charge and the other charge was put on stet. No... probation or anything aside from court costs. He also got a PBJ on the charge so I can eventually have it expunged. Mr. Garagozlo is w/o a doubt the best lawyer I've worked with and he's not as pricey as most.

First Time DUI/DWI

In my opinion, Mr. Garagozlo is a fine DUI/DWI attorney and I would recommend him to anyone. I found him to be an excellent listener with a wealth of experience defending clients arrested for alcohol related offenses. This was my first (and hopefully last) DUI/DWI, and I didn’t know what to expect. M...r. Garagozlo’s knowledge and professionalism helped ease my mind. He explained the Maryland DUI/DWI Laws and the legal consequences of being found guilty, and then proceeded to prepare me for what was ahead. Ultimately, his representation was the difference maker at both the MVA Hearing and District Court Trial. Thanks to Mr. Garagozlo, I found an excellent Alcohol Education Program, I never lost my driving privileges and I won’t have a DUI/DWI conviction on my record.

Best Lawyer in DMV

I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to represent me in my DUI case. Michael walked me through the entire process while being very understanding and compassionate. He is truly an expert in his field and was able to predict the exact outcome of my trial based on his extensive experience. I was al...so impressed by his confident presence in the courtroom and well-established rapport with many law officials in the MD area. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of legal services.

Best MD DUI Lawyer!

After embarrassingly being charged with a DUI among other charges in Montgomery County, MD, Michael Garagozlo was the first lawyer I contacted and had responded almost immediately. Mr. Garagozlo was extremely pleasant and very reassuring that he would do his best to represent me to the best of his a...bility, and also to get the best outcome for this situation. After meeting with Mr. Garagozlo, I felt a sense of relief that he was my lawyer for this ordeal. As one can imagine, this was a very embarrasing and trying time in my life; Mr. Garagozlo made the process as easy and painless as possible. Every meeting and phone exchange we had was constructive, positive and as relieving as it could possibly be for a situation like this. Mr. Garagozlo was very flexible in terms of payment. He allowed me to pay for his services through a monthly payment plan which made things much easier for me financially, as this process is a very costly one. In the end, I received a PBJ for a DWI, just as what Mr. Garagozlo wanted for me. I can not thank him enough for being there to calm my nerves about the situation, along with this ongoing legal support. If for some reason you run into the same situation as I did, Michael Garagozlo should be the lawyer you contact to deal with this matter. You will not regret your decision.
