Extremely Satisfied

Within 15 minutes of receiving my citation, Ross was on the phone with me scheduling an appointment to meet. He helped me get my license re-instated, and communicated the entire process to me. (It all unfolded exactly as he explained.) He and his staff are incredibly responsive, and followed throu...gh on every step. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

ROSS THE BOSS

Ross was recommended to me through a friend of a friend after I received my first DUI. I had no previous violations on my record, and I had never hired a lawyer before. I read the reviews on his website and decided to give him a call. I noticed that my call wasn't directed to an assistant, but went s...traight to him. He answered immediately. He met me an hour later at my favorite coffee shop in the city since he was downtown for court already. This made me feel so much more comfortable. On the day of trial, I was super nervous but Ross did most of the speaking for me. He defended my character, my career goals, and the most important thing that I remember him saying was, "she isn't someone that we need to worry about." In Howard County, it's normal for a DUI case to receive supervised probation. Ross and I took it as a victory when I received 6 months of supervised probation with the other 6 months unsupervised. He also got all my fees reduced significantly. So significantly that I was surprised AND he asked for 60 days to repay those fines. I'm just so thankful that I can finally relax and go back to my life knowing that I will get through this and I WILL be ok. I definitely could not have done this without him mainly because it's obvious he cares about his clients as individuals. I HIGHLY recommend.

Excellent Criminal Defense and DUI Attorney

Mr. Albers always presented himself professionally and promptly. He handled two cases for me, was very eloquent, knowledgeable of procedure, and he provided excellent counsel to prepare me for trial. As such, I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking counsel in criminal defense, personal injur...y, DUI, or DWI cases.

Posted by Michael | August 18, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Great lawyer, first time I needed legal representation. I picked a great one!

First things first, Attorney Albers is a great lawyer. He is very professional, very courteous and understanding, knowledgeable about the laws and processes you are about to face, treats you like a person and not just a case and genuinely cares for your well-being on top of portraying a confidence th...at helps give you peace of mind in the court room. I hired Attorney Albers for a traffic case that I needed help with and that resulted in the best possible outcome I had hoped for in the end. Before the trial I had scouted several attorneys specializing in traffic cases and found many to either be far too aggressive, complicated, and overbearing while some just treated me like a check to cash in. When I had spoken to Ross over the phone and explained the case, he laid down his plan of action and steps that I should take for the courts and the type of process and all the potential avenues of where the case could head in a manner that I felt comfortable with and that aligned with how I wanted to handle my end of the case. Ross was very communicative throughout the case and on point when it came to the court date. For my first experience in requiring legal representation, I found this to be very rewarding and successful. I highly recommend Attorney Albers if you are looking for a traffic lawyer and especially if this is your first time. I'm surely going to be giving his information out to anyone I know who needs legal help.
