DUI Defense Case - Theo Sereebutra

Mr. Sereebutra was nothing short of stellar throughout the entirety of my DUI case. In my case, I was presented with a situation where I was clearly in the wrong, and the court had everything that they needed in order to convict me of a DUI. Although we were at the mercy of the court, Mr. Sereebutr...a remained positive and was very supportive of me throughout the entire case. He was very clear and concise on what needed to be done as far as state requirements and he also helped me with all of the questions that I had along the way. Overall, I couldn't have hoped for a better attorney as Mr. Sereebutra was readily available and very thorough on his end. Thankfully, his hard work and dedication to my case resulted in a reduction in my sentencing and I was able to have a much more favorable outcome than what was initially expected. I would gladly recommend Mr. Theo Sereebutra to anybody in a similar situation to mine as I believe he is one of the best at what he does!

Professional Lawyer

I unfortunately was charged with five serious charges(DUI, Reckless Driving, Disorderly Conduct, Two counts of Criminal Tresspaing), and was faced with significant fines and jail time. I was referred to Mr. Sereebutura by a family friend's lawyer. The decision to hire him was by far the best. He spen...t a significant amount of time explaining how serious the situation was on my initial consultation and how he felt he could challenge the situation. Again, it was a great decision and his prices were were extremely fair. Theo kept me informed on the situation during the process and was quick to take my calls if he was available or promptly called me back. During such a distraught time period, that type of professionalism is enspiriting. The end result was an extremely positive one. My charges were dropped over an extended time period of wrangling except for a Trespassing charge. I highly recommend Mr. Sereebutra's services. Thank you!!
