I Highly Recommend Gregg Schaaf.

Attorney Gregg Schaaf represented me in June 2015. I had ten criminal charges against me. I was facing jail time and supervised probation. Attorney Gregg Schaaf pleaded my case to the judge. I was able to walk out of that courtroom on one count of fraud and unsupervised probation. I highly recommend ...him. He is well respected by his peers. Thank you, Mr Schaaf.

Honest and Professional

I had never had an encounter with the law until a neighbor filed criminal charges against me. My husband went online and found a local attorney, Mr. Gregg Schaff, Esquire, who had impeccible credentials. We immediately hired Mr. Gregg Schaff, Esquire. He recorded the facts, then skillfully and profe...ssionally talked me through the process and gave me very honest opinions about my situation. We went to court and through Mr. Gregg Schaaf's preparation and persistence, the false claims were dropped and I walked out of the courtroom a free woman. Some situations in life require we delegate the handling of a situation to a trustworthly representative. Mr. Gregg Schaff, Attorney at Law was mine.

Able to get charge dropped on short notice

I found attorney Gregg Schaaf through the internet, as I live in Florida and was ordered to appear in Cumberland, Maryland on short notice. With one exception, Gregg’s reviews were excellent, and I’m glad I went with him. Gregg was forthright, responsive, and effective. He quickly responded to my ...emails (even on Sunday night at the start of Thanksgiving week) and was able to get my charge dropped without me having to travel to Maryland. I also appreciated that Gregg is personable and exhibits a sense of humor.

ALL OF MY CHARGES WERE DROPPED

My experiences with Gregg as an attorney have been excellent! In a 1st offense case which had the evidence most apparently stacked against me, Gregg was able to immediately see me only a few hours after I initially contacted him. He then spent over an hour explaining my options and the coming legal s...cenarios which I faced. This was ALL before I even decided to hire him!!! His understanding of the courts his extensive. Over the months leading up to my trial Gregg spent countless hours responding to my questions, suggesting things to do prior to trial, and more. Throughout the entire process he was reasonable from pricing to not communicating anything on my behalf without my full consent first. Gregg was also able to refer my co-defendant to an excellent attorney as well. Thanks to Mr. Schaaf ALL CHARGES WERE DROPPED. As a college student approaching graduation, Gregg SAVED MY CAREER. In going the extra mile; he even went on to assist me in completing the expungement application process immediately at the conclusion of my trial. If I was to choose one reason however as to what Gregg's best quality is, it would have to be his RAPID RESPONSIVENESS. Gregg always got back to me in an absolute timely manor. I once emailed Gregg late at night asking some questions about my case. I naturally assumed that in a day or two I would have an answer. Yet, when I woke up the next morning (only a few hours after sending my email) I had a very long and thorough response in my inbox from Gregg. He had messaged me back at 1:30am. I challenge anyone to find an attorney so committed; I would never second guess utilizing his services.

My sons misdemeanor defense

Mr. Schaaf was extremely helpful. We contacted him very last minute - 2 days befor my sons scheduled court appearance. I never expected to get an attorney on such short notice. Mr. Schaaf clearly explained and made sure we understood the charges and what the possible outcomes could be. Knowing... we were from out of town he also made sure we knew where our over night accomodations were. He and his office staff were very professional. I think his fee was very reasonable and the outcome of my sons trial was the best we could expect. Especially coming from a long distance I felt very relieved that Mr. Schaaf was representing my son. I would highly recommend him.
