Documentation Case

We were a client of Charlie’s, Nobody is perfect and sometimes things are overlooked that you’re supposed to report, this was a document case through the state for Social Security! We heard about Mr. Waechter and set up an appointment. We talk to him on the phone, then we made the appointment an...d the day we went in to meet with him he had already talk to the prosecutor and had things lined up . He was very professional and the day we went to court he was definitely The cats meow ! When we walked in the court room everybody turned to him with the most respect and addressed him by his first name , he had the best relationship with the judges, bailiffs and other attorneys. So glad we chose him to help us with our case we had the best results! Charlie’s staff was always respectful always return the phone calls and Charlie was always on top of things and always made you feel like you were somebody and respected you. Always listen and never cut you off. If you ever need a lawyer hire Charlie with his staff you won’t regret it. Feeling very blessed !

Completely Satisfied

I highly recommend the Law of Office of Charles Waechter. From the initial meeting Mr Waechter assured us that if my son did exactly what he asked the outcome would be the best case scenario in his situation. My son did exactly what was asked and more and the outcome was exactly what was promised. He... and his staff are patient and efficient . They took the time to respond to ALL my questions in a timely manner. We appreciated his sternness and honesty with my son, but also offered compassion for my husband and I going through the challenging process.

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.

Sexual Misconduct Case

I was an individual attending a college and was falsely accused of committing a disgusting sexual misconduct crime. Mr. Waechter was able to help me immensely throughout the entire legal process and gave fantastic guidance at every turn. Mr. Waechter was always available via phone or in person... whenever we needed to meet. He is determined to help his clients in anyway he can and refuses to accept that he cannot help you too. I am very thankful for having a lawyer such as Mr. Waechter, otherwise an innocent person like me could be facing life changing consequences for a crime I did not commit. If you want a lawyer who cares and who will do anything in his power to help you this is the man to select in the state of Maryland.
