This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

DUI

Very professional. Most bang for your buck. Doesn't charge an arm and a leg and also a local guy. He's also helped me with a youthful offender and changed my life even though it was years passed the incident.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

DEED IN LIEU

I HAD RECEIVED PAPERWORK FROM MY MORTGAGE CO TO BE SIGNED FOR A DEED IN LIEU MORTAGE RELEASE. I HAD READ OVER THE PAPERWORK AND NATURALLY I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND HALF OF WHAT I WAS READING. WAS VERY CONFUSING. I CONTACTED MR. SWEET'S OFFICE AND SINCE HE WAS IN COURT I TALKED TO HIS SECRETARY AND EXPLAINE...D THAT I NEEDED SOMEONE TO LOOK AT WHAT I HAD BEFORE I SIGNED ANYTHING. SHE ADVISED SHE WOULD HAVE MR. SWEET CALL ME AND I ASKED IF I COULD POSSIBLY FAX THE PAPERWORK I HAD TO HER SO HE WOULD ALREADY HAVE IT. I WASN'T SURE IF HE WOULD DO ANYTHING WITH IT UNTIL I ACTUALLY CAME IN AND DISCUSSED HIS FEE FOR DOING SO. HE ACTUALLY CALLED ME BACK THE SAME AFTERNOON AND EXPLAINED THAT ALL WAS IN ORDER AND THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM IN MY SIGNING THE DOCS. THAT THE MORTGAGE CO. WAS NOT GOING TO ASK FOR ADDITIONAL MONEY AS THE HOME WAS WORTH LESS THAN WHAT WAS OWED. I FELT MUCH BETTER. WHEN I ASKED WHAT I OWED HIM FOR HIS SERVICES, HE ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NO CHARGE. THAT IT HAD ONLY TAKEN A FEW MINUTES TO READ THE PAPERWORK OVER. I WAS VERY SURPRISED. I DIDN'T THINK LAWYERS DID ANYTHING WITHOUT BEING PAID. BUT HE DID AND I AM VERY GRATEFUL. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND MR. SWEET IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN ATTORNEY.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
