Hire this firm

Last year I was charged by PBSO with a high BAC DUI, my first charge ever at 49 yrs old, and the best decision I made post arrest was trusting Meltzer&Bell. Hands down! I ended up with wreck less driving, No DUI on record, no crazy forced insurance....they got me accepted into a diversion program ...that I wasn't really qualified for....and they did sooo much more. THEY UNTIED ALL THE KNOTS. MY ATTORNEY, DAVID GOUDREAU IS NOT ONLY AN EXCEPTIONAL, INSIGHTFUL AND HIGHLY PROFESSIONAL attorney.... HE'S A GREAT HUMAN BEING. I interviewed 4 firms, Meltzer & Bell was not the least expensive but I ABSOLUTELY GOT MY Moneys WORTH. Every call answered, every text returned..every "T" crossed and "I" dotted. David was on top of everything at all times. This guy is proactive. Even more than just happy with my outcome, I can't say enough. The whole thing started like a nightmare, and these guys steered me through at every single turn. VIP. DUI

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
