Ryan saved my life.

I was in a downward spiral and at the lowest point in my life, Ryan was retained and through his hours of hard work and Christian work ethic, he helped me obtain a fair plea. He was aggressive with prosecutors on relaying my stance and was prepared to fight for me at trial.

Great Lawyer!

I hired Ryan to assist with a violation of probation case. Ryan got my case on the docket asap which meant I didn't get arrested for the warrant out for me. Ryan was able to get the warrant dismissed and keep me out of Jail by get a great deal.

excellent!!!

Excellent, trustworthy. A very dedicated to his profession. He did every thing he said, and there was not surprise payments; did I said he is very very affordable, compare to the others who seems to be interested more in how much money they can get from you instead of doing their job. I contracted hi...s services twice, the first time I went to meet him, I wanted to know the person in which hands I was on, I made an excellent choice. I recommend this attorney, trust me, he knows what he is doing!

Easier than I could have imagined

All I had to do was email my tickets and info over to Ryan. He took care of everything else from the court filings to the court appearances for me, and both of my tickets ended up being dismissed. I'm a very busy working professional; he made the process easier then I ever would have thought. He save...d me lots of time and headache, and the dismissal of the tickets saved me plenty of money (including the points on my license). Thanks Ryan!!

My Deliverance

I was fortunate enough to find Mr Rooth at a very bad time for me and my family. Other attorneys seemed to not be all that interested in our case. He at once was supportive, reassuring, and eager to help. He told us about the process and what to expect as well as the time frame. We were kept inform...ed of his progress and rejoiced at his words, "It is done." Though we never met face to face, I feel I have a friend and would call on him again if ever in need. I repeat myself to say my finding Mr. Rooth was indeed my good fortune.
