Best lawyer in town

I was recently charged with a DUI. Having no defense on my side and hopelessly searching, someone recommended Mr. Schwartz. To my surprise he was very knowledgeable and was able to give me great counsel. The outcome was unbelievable!

DROPPED CHARGES- DUI, OPEN CONTAINER, EXPIRED TAG, NO LICENSE ON PERSON

Ryan was great he got me a better deal than I ever expected. I had a super speeder, D.U.I., open container, expired tag, and driving without license on person ticket. Every single one was dropped and I got a reckless driving charge which then I was asked if I wanted to use my NOLO. I did. Walked away... with a fine and nothing more. I never lost my license, never got probation, never had any other fines to pay. That was it. —I have already recommended Ryan to two other people since my case because of my experience with him doing excellent work.—

Spectacular Attorney and an even better man.

I can’t begin to say enough wonderful things about Ryan. I was initially charged with DUI in Cobb County (DUI in Cobb is bad news, prosecutors never budge on pleas). Ryan was able to negotiate my DUI down to reckless driving, even the judge was surprised and said how lucky I was to receive the plea. ...When hiring Ryan you will receive his personal number, not his assistant like large law firms. During the lengthy process of my case Ryan always kept me informed with everything regarding it. He truly cares about negotiating the best outcome for his clients. Ryan will be my Attorney for life if I shall ever need him again.

Kept my license and internship

I hired Mr. Schwartz to represent me for my DUI case in DeKalb county. I am a student in Athens with a paid internship on the weekends in Atlanta. Losing my license would have meant losing a great future employment opportunity. I wasn't sure what to do, but Mr. Schwartz helped me every step of the wa...y. He was always very professional and easy to get in touch with. In the end, I was able to keep driving and received very minimal probation--even though I was over twice the legal limit when arrested. He knows the legal system very well and will work hard to get you the best possible outcome to your case. I don't think anyone else is really capable of doing what he does, and I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Ryan was born to do this! The best lawyer hands down’

Roughly two years ago, I had the misfortune of being arrested for a DUI in Fulton county. I blew way over the limit and was immediately sent to Fulton county jail. I was lucky enough to meet someone while waiting to be bailed out who knew Ryan! I was arrested early Sunday morning and was able to get ...in contact with him Sunday night. My court date was Monday so I desperately needed an attorney! Not only did Ryan meet with me that morning at court, but he also immediately advised me what steps I should take. He even allowed me to make payments to him instead of paying the attorney fees upfront! This is rare! When I had to report my case to the boards for my RN license. Ryan was gracious enough to write them a letter informing them of my case. Not only did Ryan always keep me up to date with my case, but he was able to give me the miracle I so desperately needed and got my DUI reduced to a reckless driving charge. Ryan always made me feel like everything was going to be okay and always remained positive about my case when I had lost all hope. If there is ever another moment that I need an attorney I will without a shadow of a doubt hire Ryan again. He is fantastic at what he does and I am so blessed to have been able to get the opportunity to work with him. He is number one in my book!
