It's a wonderful thing, not having to fight your Lawyer, to fight for you

We need more people like Gregg Schaaf in every profession. He is not tired out and unfeeling like many professionals. Most do not have a great opinion of lawyers, nor did I, until I met Mr. Schaaf. He is smart, sincere, and patient. His dedication shows in his long working hours which includes we...ekends. He genuinely cares about doing what he can for you and the outcome. He finds a way to translate your emotional sense of justice into the law. His only negative turns out to be a positive. And that negative is; He doesn't return phone calls when he says he will. But, you quickly become relieved when he does return your call and he shows that he did not slip your mind, but, had been addressing your case with sincere concern. So when he doesn't return your call right away again, you smile and say no need to worry, I know he is doing what he can. I couldn't figure out why I so sincerely like this lawyer past obvious reasons, but now I know, it's because he has no Ego. He is not judgmental, arrogant nor egotistical, so you feel very comfortable in revealing your ignorance of law lingo and asking him to translate. I felt immediately comfortable with asking any questions, and telling him exactly how I felt about my case. He was extraordinarily patient compare to other He involves his clients as he reviews and explored the case. I had a difficult situation with many facets and he addressed every single one of them to the best of his ability. I can't express enough the gratitude I had for someone having my back. In the end, he did deliver for me, and I was pleased. I was happy with the results, yet Mr. Schaaf was sincerely disappointed he did not get me more. This was solely due to the very bias Judge whom I dealt with before. Previously, I had another Lawyer on my case, of which was the complete opposite outcome; she was not the least bit concerned about my bummer outcome. I highly recommend Mr. Schaaf to all in need of a good lawyer.

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.

I highly recommend Gregg

Gregg Schaaf was a great attorney to work with. I had a conflict with a criminal case and he was immediately able to help me. Within seconds after describing my situation he was able to explain to me the laws associated with my issue, and how he could help me by using his many years of experience. Wh...at really stood out to me about Gregg is the reassurance he gave me. He told me my odds and allowed me to trust in him that everything would be under control. He was also very quick to get back in touch with me, and within just a few days I had my situation take care of. I am a college student, who has many hopes and dreams. I learned my wrongs, and with Gregg's help I am now able to pursue things I have become so passionate about. I have many thanks for his time and efforts. I would suggest Gregg to anyone. I saw him as a caring person, who brought comfort and light to my situation.

Great Lawyer

Mr. Gregg Schaaf did a great job with handling my case. Being a partially disabled veteran, Mr. Gregg Schaaf was understanding of my situation and with no previous theft charges, he managed to get one charge completely dropped and with a simple $20 restitution payment and 40 community service hours.......I'll maintain a clean record for my much better future! With all thanks to Mr. Gregg Schaaf!
