Great Connections and Experience

I'm sure that most folks reading these had a friend or family member make a serious mistake (I'm no exception). I'm very happy we worked with Charlie - I can't imagine many others have his relationships and experience. You can tell that he really does care about getting things right, and he got us a ...result that was really unexpectedly good.

Excellent Lawyer

Charlie fought for me in every step of the case. I was charged in 2014 and thought I would face jail time, Charlie fought for me and I was only given probation. He is an excellent lawyer and gave me the truth from day one. He did not try to sugar coat anything and gave me his opinion of what I sh...ould expect. I highly recommend him

Lawyer Review

On july, 4th 2017 i was arrested in Ocean City Maryland. Months later i came into contact with Charles Waechter, and on December 7th he represented me the best way possible. If youre looking for a lawyer this man is the real deal.

Excellent representation in a very difficult case

Mr. Waechter from day one was effective, non-judgemental, and very professional in all matters regarding my case. I was charged with multiple felony charges, and from the start, he knew every step to take, and guided me thru. He directed me to enter counseling immediately, and to submit to several ...other processes, and in every case, these were the correct steps to take. He worked closely with the court, and was able to plea my case, and keep me out of jail. I was truly lucky to find him, and would highly recommend his services to anyone facing serious charges. Listen to his advice!

DUI Charge

I was charged with DUI and causing an accident. Mr. Waechter handled my case masterfully. I couldn't be more pleased with his service. I heartily recommend him to all.

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.
