I was pulled over in Cumberland Maryland when police saw me talking on my cell phone (bad choice), and unknown to me my WV license was suspended due to a speeding ticket I forgot about and not receiving the court notice to appear for driving on out of state license. An attorney friend highly recomme...nded him. Long story short, There was a warrant out for my arrest, Pat got the judge to quash the warrant and talked to the prosecuting attorney who dismissed the charges. I didn't have to appear in court either! Lesson well learned but I'm sooooo very thankful Pat was my attorney! Put your trust in HIM! {info redacted}

I was pulled over for a speeding violation in May of 2014 and in the process was charged with a DWI @ a 0.07. It was a borderline case, but most lawyers out there would tell you to "Just take the PBJ, you'll probably get unsupervised probation" and then collect a fee for "walking you through" the pr...ocess. Not Pat. After conducting an in-depth interview, Pat explained that this is a very defensible case and that we should absolutely go for an acquittal rather than just the "get you off" quickie path of a PBJ. He advised on proactive actions to take before the court date to maximize a beneficial (unsupervised) outcome should we lose the case. I highly advise anyone to heed this advice as other defendants didn't seem to get the same and were dealt much harsher penalties than the few that did. But, luckily this was all unnecessary. After 3 delays, once at our request because of an unfavorable judge & mistaken identity and TWICE because the State couldn't get their act together, we had the trial. Once the State's Attorney was done with the police officer, who was quite "Gung Ho" I might add, Pat methodically picked apart their case line by line, pulling out official procedures & statutes that both the officer and even the State's Attorney were ignorant of. The Judge without hesitation said "not guilty" as soon as Pat finished presenting his case. Even the speeding ticket ended up as a PBJ. I can't recommend Pat enough if you find yourself in a similar situation.

Patrick Maher is the real deal! Today was my day in court…I was nervous. But, I had listened and prepared for court in every way suggested by Mr. Maher, or Pat as he prefers. He was prepared too and I was delighted to walk away from multiple tickets (holiday weekend DWI) and fines with a not guilty f...or all except a minor traffic ticket. As others have posted, he is a down to earth person that listens to the details of your case. He answered all my questions, emails, and phone calls. He truly kept my best interest in mind for the best possible outcome. As a true expert in his field, I highly recommend Pat for DWI/DUI traffic court.

Mr. Maher is an exceptional attorney. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the law and his level of representation. My case was very complex and yet I was able to get a very favorable outcome. Mr. Maher explained to me in great detail each and every aspect of the case and prepared a defense acc...ordingly. I would highly recommend Mr. Maher for your case.
