Gregg Schaaf

I am deeply grateful for the exceptional work Mr. Schaaf did on my case. From the very first moments, he was fully engaged -immediately going to the scene to gather crucial evidences. His communication with me, officials and witness was always professional and effective. All motions and documents wer...e filed promptly and with great attention to detail. A negative outcome could have had serious consequences for my life, but thanks to his efforts, the case was resolved in my favor before it even reached a formal hearing. What truly sets Mr. Schaaf apart is not just his knowledge of the law, but his old-school eloquence, his respect for people, and his ability to see you not just as a client, but as a human being. He is polite, tactful, and persistent when necessary. I am incredibly thankful and feel fortunate to have chosen him to represent me.

Upon learning that my son faced felony charges I knew he speedily needed legal help. I immediately went searching for an attorney via the internet. My criteria were expertise and experience in handling felony charges. Mr. Gregg Schaaf met these criteria so I contacted him via the phone. He was very... compassionate, courteous and professional and within minutes he emailed me the nature of the charges. He also went to the courthouse and obtained excerpts from more than one court jacket which he scanned and forwarded to me via email. This level of effort, and professional kindness, independent of compensation, is a rare thing in today's world. I was moved by his kindness and willingness to do this. The information he provided helped me to have a meaningful discussion with my son about his current circumstances. Ultimately without first talking with Mr. Schaaf, my son indicated he was most comfortable staying with the attorney who had helped him on a previous matter. Mr. Schaaf gave me a positive review of my son's former attorney, and wished my son well. Mr. Schaaf appeared to be a fully competent professional, and is a straight shooter and I would not hesitate to recommend others to consult with him if they or their loved ones are faced with criminal charges in Western Maryland.

After doing extensive searching for an attorney in the Cumberland area, I found Mr. Gregg Schaaf. I contacted Mr. Schaaf on behalf of my sister who has traffic violation charges and a warrant for failure to appear. I wasn't certain how Mr. Schaaf could help my sister, but I thought I would try to e...xplain her case with him. Initially Mr. Schaaf and I spoke in length about my sisters charges and potential options. He went through in detail the various charges and progression of her case which took well over an hour. Mr. Schaaf then indicated that he wanted to go to the local courthouse and research my sisters several court files at the local courthouse and he seemed to know the local participants in the criminal process and was familiar with Maryland's Motor Vehicle Administration. Thereafter we conferenced my sister on the our phone call and Mr. Schaaf took the time to explain to my sisters options and was extremely empathetic to her situation as my sister discussed the details of her life and how her current situation arose. Mr. Schaaf was patient and showed empathy towards my sisters situation and ultimately offered his opinion and the next steps my sister needs to resolve her situation. I haven't hired Mr. Schaaf on my sisters behalf yet since she has to make the decision to turn herself in, but when she does I know who I will want to call to assist her. I am indebted to Mr Schaaf for his generosity with his time and simply being a compassionate, understanding attorney which is rare in today's world.”

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.
