10/10

He did a great job and was very professional and helpful. He got my record expunged and a couple charges dropped. He communicates well and worked hard. I would recommend him to anyone that is in trouble

Absolutely awesome!!!

He was amazing! He answered all my questions and was very quick to return my call. When I called and explained my situation he was understanding and assured me that he would take care of everything which he did. I was pulled over for expired tags in October and attempted to pay the ticket however, I ...was not informed that I could not pay with personal check. I then was pulled over because they suspended my license for not paying which I knew nothing about and was charged with a misdemeanor 1. I took care of everything the next day. Within two weeks, we were back in court and he was able to settle to where the misdemeanor was dropped and I was able to just pay fines. Needless to say I am completely satisfied with how this turned out!

Excellent, could not be more satisfied.

I had 4 charges brought against me that I thought would not have the opportunity to be expunged. I was facing possible jail time, community service, alcohol classes, and criminal offenses. Steve has given me the opportunity to expunge my cases by staying out of trouble for 1.5 years. He was easy to... talk to, understanding, responds quickly to emails, and answered every question I had.

Mike

I hired Steven for my DWI and he was terrific. He was always available to talk about any questions or concerns i had throughout the process. This meant a lot as the process can be stressful. He took my case very seriously and delivered everything he promised. I would without a doubt hire Steven again....

Excellent DUI lawyer

I retained the services of Mr. Spitler for a DUI case recently and thought he did a terrific job representing me. This was not my first DUI and in comparison to my previous lawyer, Steve went far above and beyond my expectations. He was attentive to every detail of my case, was always available for... consultation, thorough in explaining to me what was going on, and what I needed to do and when. As my license was immediately suspended, Steve actually picked me up and dropped me off at work for court related appointments which was vital to me maintaining my job. He also reduced the length of my suspension by six months a year after my case was finalized, which was a pleasant and unexpected surprise. I thought his fee was more than reasonable for the amount of effort and attention he put into my case and highly recommend his services.

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.
