very professional

I hired D.Meyer around july for a speeding ticket. Im a truck driver and i needed a lawyer. Within 60 days he got my ticket dismissed and I paid 64 dollars in court costs..His fee to hire was very reasonable and he saved me money and most of all my livelyhood.I didnt have time to miss work so he went... for me.I dont no what he did but he must know his job. Thank you D Meyer......

Great attorney!!

I hired Darren Meyer for my son who received citations for reckless driving and passenger restriction. With his thorough knowledge of the law, he was able to get both charges dismissed. Will definitely recommend him if I know anyone in need of an attorney. Oh, and did I mention I hired him on a Monda...y and we were in court 3 days later? How convenient is that? Talk about quick work!! Thanks again Mr. Meyer for all of your help!

Excellent Criminal Defense

Mr. Meyer helped my son out of what could have been a sticky situation. Very knowledgeable of the laws and has a good rapport with the court systems in the area. If we ever need an attorney again, it will be Darren Meyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
