Mr. Veliz

Mid 2016 i was pulled over , i was charged with a DUI because of my double refusal. I was left blank , i didnt know how to act ot what to do. But thank god for Mr. Veliz , he was really convincing with his words , & with no hesitation he would explain every detail. I was conviced with what he had off...er to get me . Of course it was on my favour was i wasnt financially ready to fight it all . But im happy with the reckless driving . Thank you Mr Veliz , i did not only find a lawyer , i found a friend i can always run to for any questions.

Mr. Gabriel Veliz

I am conducting the survey attached with my own personal comments regarding the legal service which I received from defense attorney Gabriel Veliz. In late June 2016 I was pulled over and charged with first time drinking and driving under the influence of alcohol . I refused The breathalyzer a...nd was taken to jail that evening. Also, I was in the transition of moving from one state to another and this incident has become a huge inconvenience for me . Gabriel based on a "case to case" approach and strategy, had thoroughly reviewed my file. From the police report to the video surveillance from the police officers car itself. Since in this case the video was favorable on my behalf I won't get into details; (it's just too much to write) he was successfully able to get my charge dropped down from first time DUI, to a reckless driving, which save me thousands in fines, restitutions, and further attorney fees. Those including trial if I decided to follow through and pursue the case all the way to the end. Thus, was not an option at all for me for various reasons and variables. I will leave my contact information below if you have any further questions regarding Mr. Veliz is legal services feel free to shoot me an email at anytime. Hopefully this was helpful to whoever those are who are interested in obtaining Mr. Gabriel Veliz as their defense attorney. Best Regards, Mr. Jahan •2nd
