Thank you
I was charged with DUI and needed someone who would keep this off my record because I was afraid of losing my job if my license go suspended. Mr Sylvan go the charges dropped to a reckless driving and saved my license. I can't thank him enough for all the hard work he did as well as all the hand hold...

Case dismissed
Mr. Sylvan was able to review my case and figure out that the cops screwed up. He was able to get the evidence thrown out and my case was dismissed. I highly recommend Mr. Sylvan
