Hired Lawyer

Not long ago I received a phone call from Charles stating the prosecuter was not going to charge me with pornography distribution. What could have been a potentially life changing event was reversed without a court room appearance. From my initial consultation until charges were dropped, Charles prov...ed to be professional and with his years of experience was able to guide me in the right direction. Even though the process dragged on for close to a year he updated me on a regular basis and always returned my anxiety filled phone calls. I would definitely recommend Charles.

HIT AND RUN APPEAL

Mr Waecther corrected the mess my previous attorney put me in (2yrs probation, 2yr loss of my license, high court fines and fees) i had a consult and a followup before court. He was in court early and fought for my best intrest as an attorney should. I no longer have probation, i recieved my mva mone...y back. some of my court fees and i have the priviledge of driving again.

Excellent job with a difficult case

We hired Charlie to defend a family friend from a serious criminal charge. We chose him because he is very experienced and demonstrated competence regarding defending this type of case. Charlie was responsive to our concerns and got the best possible outcome for this most difficult case.

Excellent Defense Attorney

From the day I met him, Mr. Waechter was confident and reassuring about my DUI case. My case proceeded exactly as he said it would from the beginning to its conclusion. I was able to get the most favorable outcome possible for my case. I particularly appreciate Mr. Waechter's promptness in communicat...ion throughout the year for which my case lapsed. He was extremely knowledgable in the matters at hand, and spent extra time and effort to explore the unique circumstances of my case as I am a resident of another state charged in Maryland. It was very reassuring and comforting to have him fighting on my side. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for an experienced, professional, and reliably attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
