DUI/ Dwi

Oh my god I don't have any words to describe Mr, Maher's knowledge and experience it's beyond my thought.. Mr Maher predicted what to anticipate in my case for Dui by the way it was my 2nd one..I was so stressed out and nervous and very anxious about the situation..Mr, Maher's expertise gave me con...fidence and he agreed to Represent me. As the other reviews on this site have attested his knowledge and skills ....They are really unmatched. Whenever he arrived at court I personally felt a sense of relief knowing that I was in the best hands..That feeling carried over with every Email, letters and phone calls during our interaction... He is an expert in his field..very kind ,patient and 100% down to earth.. Mr,Maher got my all 5 serious charges dismissed..

Just what we needed

Mr. Maher came to our rescue when our family found ourselves encountering the court system for the very first time when our son was charged with three serious crimes related to a traffic misunderstanding in a Maryland parking lot. The charges involved potential jail time and major fines. Mr. Mayer p...atiently explained the laws and the process, and conducted thorough research. From the very beginning, he expressed compassion (a real contrast with other attorneys we interviewed) and make clear throughout that he was a firm advocate for our son’s interests. In the end, prosecutors agreed that the police had filed egregious charges and presented a joint proposal to the judge for a very minor fine related to our son’s status as a permit holder (not yet a licensed driver). The judge concurred, a trial was averted and our son maintained his clean driving record. We could not have been more grateful for Mr. Mayer’s patience, thoroughness, advocacy, and reasonable fee.

Thorough and Honest

I hired Pat after finding him on Avvo and seeing all of the positive feedback. My case has just been decided. Considering the details, I could not be happier with the result. This was my fourth contact with the law regarding alcohol related offenses (third DUI charge). Pat took the time, on several i...nstances, to walk through what happened with me step by step and to find anywhere we may have had a case. Although most cases do not go to trial, Pat was extremely prepared just in case it did and he made sure I was prepared as well. I was facing about eight charges altogether from this one incident. We respectfully declined the first plea offered by the State as Pat continued to go to bat for why the State did not have a guaranteed case against me. After some negotiation, the plea was lessened to the lower DWI charge with all other charges dismissed. All jail time was suspended and the judge was even willing to invite our petition for PBJ in the near future, pending my completion of an alcohol treatment program. I hope to never need his services again, but I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking honest and thorough representation.

Best lawyer, best outcome for my DUI case

I am forever grateful for Pat Maher's incredible work with my case. He has my highest recommendation for anyone seeking representation for a DUI charge. He knew his stuff and it resulted in the best possible outcome - not guilty. I consulted many lawyers and most wanted to go through the motions o...f a PBJ. Pat was willing to scrutinize my case and potentially take it to trial, if he believed it would be in my favor. (He ultimately did). Pat was expensive, but I felt not selecting him could end up in a missed oppritunity to make this go away. (I was right). The prosecutor gave me a terrible plea bargain and we proceed with a trial. Pat was beyond prepared and had multiple points of conflict in my case. It was amazing to watch, the judge was even impressed, stating, "whatever you're paying him, it's not enough." I am forever thankful for his service. Highly recommended!

Excellent

Pat is an excellent attorney. I hired him for a DUI case. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and very sensitive to me needs. He thoroughly listened to me, guided me through the case and got me through a very difficult time in my life. I would highly and unequivocally hire Pat for any DUI o...r DWI related case.
