This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Court Room Experience

Having never been in an accident, let alone being charged with a DUI, I had no idea what to do as it is a very complicated process. Joel walked me through every step and was always prompt and available. He even gave me his cell number so that I could text him. I would never have been able to get the ...reduced charges that I received without his assistance. He worked diligently on my case and did a superb job. I would definitely recommend him.
