Top notch lawyer!

Steven Wetter did a great job for me! He handled a DUI case with professionalism and told me from the very beginning not to worry about anything. His assistant Dulce is top notch and also makes you feel like you're being taken care of through the whole process.

Fantastic Lawyer

I hired Attorney Wetter for a DUI 2nd offfense recently. His staff was polite and prompt to return my emails and remind and confirm all dates. Mr. Wetter was patient and took the time to explain everything in detail and worked hard for the best outcome in my case. I am very happy with the service he ...provided and I highly recommend him to others in difficult situations.

You deserve BETTER than Wetter

I was charged with my second DUI outside of 5 years, no breath test, no blood test, no urine test. There was also no audio or video from the officers, purely subjective evidence. The second charge was 2nd refusal to submit to breath test after license suspension in which the statute clearly states th...e officer MUST inform you that not only will your license be suspended again but also result in a misdemeanor charge. She did not state that there would be another charge(as stated by the narrative as well as the DMV hearing). $5000 is what Wetter charged me in order to represent me in this case. He avoided phone calls, emails and twice I had to show up at his office in order to try and get a hold of him. It took 4 months before he even brought a plea deal to me, I wouldn't consider him good enough attorney to take anything to trial plus he requires an extra $1500 to go to trial. My family and I were planning on moving out of state well before all this was going on. Mr Wetter had told me: “if you need to move up there, go ahead and I’ll handle everything down here”. He forgot to mention that if I would have done that I would have violated my Bond conditions with the bondsman and it could have been up to a 5 year charge for jumping bond. With time getting close to move I decided to take a plea because like I said he is not competent to take a case like this to trial and the time I spent waiting for him I could have be 1/4 done with any type of probation already. The days prior to me accepting the plea Mr. Wetter assured me and my family “dont worry about jail”. Again, I was outside of the 5 year period for the 2nd DUI, the officer DID NOT inform me of the misdemeanor charge which according to the statute is required. I had to do 10 days in LCJ and went to court to turn myself on my birthday. (Thanks Wetter, glad it took 4 months in order to get that done.) All my original charges is what I had to plea to, nothing was dropped not one charged was less than the original with nothing but what the cops narrative of what happened. A public defender will get you the exact same plea deal. Justice and the Law are two totally different things, Steven Wetter is STILL on the other side. His speeches he’ll give you about “wanting to work for the other side” is a crock. YOU DESERVE BETTER THAN WETTER

Best DUI Attorney

Steven Wetter is as goods as they get!!! I got a DUI in Feb 2014 with a BAC over .25 and he was able to reduce it to reckless driving with hardship. In 2015 got a DUI because I did not blow and he was able to get my driver license reinstated with out hardship and no classes. He is the best attorney i...n town!! I just want to say thank you to him and his staff. If you are looking for someone who will work night and day on you case look know further.

Trust me when I tell you that Steven knows his business and knows what he is doing. You will not regret hiring him if you are charged with DUI. What you will regret is if you do not hire him. The money I spent to retain him was the best money I ever spent. Steven is sharp and backs up what he tells you. I feel very fortunate to have had Steven in my corner.On account of Steven working for me I am one hell-a-va satisfied client. I guarantee that whoever hires him for his/hers DUI case they to will be an extremely satisfied client as well.
