A good decision!

Gregg is a excellent attorney. He is competent, trustworthy and empathetic to his clients. His knowledge of the law is broad and focused. He treated my case with the utmost urgency and was attentive to all detail no matter how insigificant it appeared. He goes above and beyond in my opinion to e...xplain all the scenerios that may happen in court, so their are no suprises. His follow thru is admirable, and if you hire him to represent you, you will have made a great decision.

Great Attorney

Mr. Schaaf has represented me on 3 separate occasions. The most recent was a criminal offense stemming from an assault charge. I was found not guilty and am now eligible to have the charge expunged. I might add, the 2 times prior to this particular case, the outcomes also resulted in my favor. Mr,... Schaaf demonstrates an attitude of responsiveness versus a reactive stance. With regards to all 3 cases, his expertise, knowledge and experience came shining through. Before, after and during our court appearances he demonstrated professionalism, accuracy and skill. I don't mind saying, he is an empathetic human being. He appreciated my call of distress with a quick response and was extremely reassuring. He conducts himself always, with a positive, caring attitude throughout. Having said that, Mr. Schaaf is assertive, he doesn't pull any punches. He gets results fast, without wearing boxing gloves. I was extremely impressed with his ability to engage opposing attorney's and judges. It is obvious to me that he is respected among his peers and colleagues. He is honest and doesn't need to jump through hoops to obtain the results necessary for a favorable outcome. I am truly grateful for his time, effort, and genuine interest. I could continue to write, but I would not be able to articulate everything in a few short paragraphs. Bottom line, if you are looking for an attorney with a strong back bone, who is willing to go the distance; please consult Mr. Schaaf. You won't be disappointed. I will recommend him to my closest friends, and family without an ounce of hesitation.

My criminal defense attorney for Allegany county!

I contacted Mr. Schaff when I got in legal trouble in Allegany county. I was being charged with a criminal offense, first time that I had ever been in trouble with the law. Mr. Schaff was very empathetic and understanding. He explained possible outcomes and reassured me that my life was not over y...et. He also made himself available for evening and weekend consultations. When we got to trial, Mr. Schaff presented the case well. I received the outcome that I was hoping for and was very pleased. Gregg Schaff gets my highest recommendations.

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.
