David Haenel's Representation, Felony

A few months ago, I was involved in a traffic accident that landed me in jail. I was charged with a felony, and was facing the serious possibility of further jail time and suspension of my license. This came at a very bad time, as I was planning on returning to college out of state in the coming ne...w year. On the advice of a friend, I went to David Haenel's office for a consultation. I must say that I was impressed by his demeanor and knowledge of such cases, but as usual, with any person you have to place so much trust and responsibility with, I was skeptical. However, I can now safely say that David is the real deal, and certainly deserves this confidence and more. Within a month, I was moved from felony to misdemeanor court, after which David was able to negotiate a deal that was well below the standard. I served no further jail time and retained my driver's license. This outcome was far removed from my expectations, and I cannot thank him enough for pursuing this case on my behalf. Thanks to his hard work, I can continue pursuing my education this year, and without the stigma of having a felony on my record. In all, I cannot recommend David Haenel enough to do his service justice. At the very least, bring your case to his attention. I am near certain that you will find him as straightforward and knowledgeable as I have.

DUI

TO POTENTIAL CLIENTS OF DAVID HAENEL. I was driving home from the beach one day with a cracked tail light after having a few beers. I was pulled over and arrested for DUI. I took the case to Mr. Haenel and his partner, Mr. Finebloom. At first, the state was not willing to budge, even though i h...ad never been in trouble before. David and his partner did and awesome job fighting the state. All of their hard work paid off. They did not get the case reduced to reckless, they had it completely dismissed. Thanks to them, I still have a clean record. I cannot express how grateful I am, they literally saved my future. I would absolutely recommend the guys from the office of Finebloom & Haenel. Thanks again!

Client Review

Dear Mr. Haenel, I am writing to thank you so much for your representation of my father in his recent court appearance. This accident has been holding him hostage for months and we are so relieved it is finally resolved and he has been exonerated. I serve in the Army and to watch this process fro...m afar amazed me as it is so different than how things are handled for Soldiers. The civilian world is incredibly harsh. My father described you as the consummate professional and was quite impressed by you. I truly appreciate your taking his case and doing such a superb job. Thank you, Sir.

Great Lawyer

David could have easily "dumped" our case on a quick plea, but he made sure the court enforced the law and the rules and dismissed the case. Had he not paid attention to our case and the deadlines, we would have paid a fine unnecessarily. As a lawyer, I would hire David again and I give him my high...est rating.
