The greatest choice I could've made.

Words cant really describe the professionalism and genuine character of attorney Gabriel Winters. He is the type of person who really cares about the well being of his clients. He fought my case thoroughly and got my Dui dropped down to reckless driving with ease. He also negotiated my case to where ...I didn't have to do community service. He kept me informed about every court appearance and the possible outcomes of the process. It was never a problem getting into contact with him as he was always one call away. If you hire this man, not only will get a person who doesn't see you as just a pay check, but a person who will go to no ends to make sure you have the best possible outcome. This was my first offense and I did inquire about other lawyers prior to calling him, but I can truly say this was a walking blessing in a two-piece suit. He is extremely thorough and caring. In one instance, I had a court hearing he was unable to attend, but he sent a representative in his place that seemed to care about me as much as he did. I honestly have nothing bad to say about the outcome of the case, his professionalism, or his kind heart. If I ever have any driving violations in the future there is no need to call someone else. He made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the entirety of this case and is an overall good brother. I cannot express that enough. He is absolutely the best.

Excellent experience, Excellent attorney

I had an unfortunate experience on the highway in Henry County and made the wrong decision due to fear: leaving the scene of an accident. I was charged with a Hit and Run offense: a serious offense and one that had the potential to cause a great deal of life and job disruption. I was extremely st...ressed because of this and engaged Mr. Winters' services. Throughout the process, he struck a good balance between explaining what could happen versus a likely result based on negotiation. Having Gabe's advice was key and allowed me to manage the stress of the situation. In the end, Gabe was able to get my Hit and Run charge reduced to a traffic violation, partially because I completed the driver education course he recommended. I would highly recommend using Gabe if you are in a similar position. He knows the legal process, offers good advice, and is a pleasure to deal with.

Excellent Work on a DUI Case

I was charged with a DUI in addition to 3 traffic violations including an open container, and I hired Gabe Winters to represent me. I could not be more happy for making this decision because he succeeded in getting my DUI charge dropped outside of court along with all but one of the traffic citations...(including the open container). I was thrilled and relieved by the extraordinary outcome of my case, which had been impending for half a year since my court date was postponed many times. During this period of foreboding, Mr. Winters provided extensive guidance and kept in touch with me closely: He was invariably responsive and accessible. I commend the work this lawyer, and effusively, I recommend hiring him.

Exceptional Service from an Exceptional lawyer!

I am very pleased with the outcome of having Gabe by my side as my attorney. Mr Winters was able to get my charges dropped to reckless driving. He performed his job with professionalism and a sense of humor which made me feel at ease during a difficult time. And all done at a very reasonable pri...ce. I highly recommend him!

Worth the money

Gabe Winters is a great guy. He actually showed up to jail to meet with me over a wreckless driving charge. To complicate things I was only probation. I ended up getting 2 speeding tickets and a wreckless driving charge. He got the wreckless dropped and resulted in one 14 mph over. This was a 141 spe...eding ticket. He also helped to push for a hearing to get me off probation. He was successful and has given me a new opportunity to do the right thing.
