Excellent Lawyer!

We hired Ryan for our sons case. Ryan was very attentive and a great communicator. I have experienced this is not the case with all attorneys. When I first contacted him, he took the time to listen to me fully explain the situation and reassure me he could help. Ryan took time to fully explain the p...rocess and all possible outcomes to myself, my husband and our son. We felt very confident that Ryan would help us achieve the best possible outcome. He truly put our mind at ease and in the end our case was dismissed! No one expects to have to hire a defense lawyer, however if you end up in a situation needing one Ryan is the best. I would highly recommend Ryan to anyone.

For the people

Mr. Swingle was assigned to my case due to conflict of interest with the public defenders office. He went above and beyond and made sure all my concerns were addressed and were a priority. He did exactly as he said he would do and was very punctual and easy to get in touch with. 5/5 would recommend. ...

Serious Sex Crime Case Resolved

In April of 2015, a girl I had dated for 3 years accused me of raping her. I was arrested and charged with 3 separate felonies because of these accusations. After 3 weeks in jail, I finally received a bond hearing. Thus began nearly 3 years of my case being put on the back burner. During those 3 year...s, I moved to another state, got married, bought a house, started a family... pretty much moved on with my life. The funny thing about problems is that they always come back to get you in the end, and after three years of pretty much not thinking about this case, I received a letter from the ACC Clerk of Courts that I was due in court... IN 2 WEEKS! Needless to say, I was stunned. I hadn't spoken to the Public Defender who was assigned to my case in almost a year! To make matters even worse, when I reached out to my Public Defender, he emailed me to let me know that he had retired the previous August! I was absolutely distraught, had no idea what was going on and had no clue what to do. The Public Defender who was responsible for my case sent another email the next day recommending that in a case as serious as mine, I should seek a criminal defense attorney and he recommended Ryan Swingle and another lawyer. It might seem silly, but I called Ryan initially because his website looked a little more "put together" than the other guy. He answered quickly and I explained the situation to him. He explained his fee and after consulting with my wife, we pulled the trigger. Ryan immediately sprung into action. He was able to get a continuance on the case to get us some time to build a defense and ultimately, after building a defense, Ryan used the evidence and his powerful negotiating skills to bring the case to a resolution. To be perfectly clear, I was looking at 90 years in prison. With the plea deal Ryan negotiated, I received NO jail time and DID NOT have to register as a sex offender. To top it all off, once I complete probation, my record will be sealed and it will be like this nightmare never even happened! That probably gives you an idea of how fantastic Ryan is. But it certainly does not tell you the small things he does to make that big picture come to fruition. Ryan took the time to listen to me, he reviewed all discovery thoroughly, he explained everything and fielded questions from me, my wife, and even my mother-in-law. He kept in constant contact during this experience and was always upfront with me about all possibilities. At the end of the day, this man is professional, he carries himself well, he is beyond intelligent, and he actually CARES about his clients. The old saying goes that "you get what you pay for." With Ryan, you truly do. His fees are equal to the severity of the charges, so in my case, it was a pretty penny. Ryan's services are not cheap, but he earns every single penny you give him. I bet the rest of my life on that, and he delivered. Thank you for everything you did for me, Ryan. You gave me my life back and while I hope I never find myself in a situation to use your services again, you'll always be the first call I make should I ever have to.

Excellent and Professional

Ryan was very professional and was there for my every need. I had a dui charge and was told by another lawyer that my sentence was the best deal he has ever seen for a second in ten. He was available seven days out of the week and was very knowledgeable in all aspects of my case. I would recommend Ry...an to anyone who wants a professional yet personal lawyer to defend them.

Good job!

Ryan Swingal is a very good lawyer. He is professional, responsive, helpful, & takes the time to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I'd highly recommend him as a lawyer.
