Terrence Robert Rudes

Mr. Rudes represented me on a serious OVI charge. He is extremely knowledgeable of all the facets of the criminal system including laws, precedences, detection methods and interpretations. What I appreciated the most was his candid disposition and care he displayed in my case. Personally, I could ...not ask for a better lawyer to have on my side. Results exceeded my expectations and I intend on keeping my promise to never need his services again. Thank you Terry and I wish you the best!

Mr. Rudes is a very competent lawyer who represented me in a serious DUI/OVI charge. He is very thorough. His support and guidance got me through the most serious event I've ever experenced. I was in serious trouble. I was terrified for what was coming. He managed to get lesser charges and saved ...me alot of grief. He guided me down a wonderful path to a better future. Kind and humble. He came to my home for the initial consultation which I was so very greatful. I highly recommend him in any DUI/OVI case. His knowledge and experience is impeccable. I am forever blessed and greatful to have found him.

I was charged with OVI. After vetting several attorneys, I chose Mr. Rudes to represent me. Mr. Rudes is very professional and straight forward. He explained to me what the possible consequences of the OVI charge would be and what my options were. Mr. Rudes said "tell me what you want the outcome to ...be and that is what we will shoot for. Because I could not drive, Mr. Rudes came to my home to discuss my case. He gave me a questionnaire to fill out which was very thorough. Mr. Rudes asked me a lot of questions about my background, my family and the circumstances leading to my OVI charge. On the day of the pre-trial, Mr. Rudes presented my options after he had spent a lot of time researching my case and then talking with the prosecuting attorney. I was surprised by the offer presented to me on the pre-trial day which was dismissal if the one-year ALS (adminstrative license suspension as I refused the BAC text), reduction of OVI to reckless operation, fine and 3-day alcohol intervention program. Mr. Rudes wanted me to take my case to trial as he believed the officer who charged me with OVI had no reason to pull me over and the circumstances surrounding my OVI were questionable at best. I decided to take the plea deal and get everything over with the day of the pre-trial. I walked out of the courtroom with my life back; I was able to drive again! Had me personal circumstances been different, I would have followed Mr. Rudes advice and taken my case to trial. In the end, Mr. Rudes did exactly what he said he would do. Mr. Rudes worked hard for me, not as just another client, but on a personal level. I highly recommend Mr. Rudes to anyone facing a OVI such as I was. Not only was my outcome good, I feel I have gained a new friend.

Attorney Rudes represented me for an incident in which I refused to take the breathalyzer. Attorney Rudes helped me to plea to Reckless Op 2nd offense. He helped me establish restricted driving privileges for 6 months and I attended the DIP program which was also court ordered. Upon the end of my... 6 month license suspension I realized there was still an ALS against my drivers license that required a $475 payment. Both Attorney Rudes and I did not feel that was correct . Attorney Rudes took this matter before the Judge and he agreed with Attorney Rudes despite the prosecutor’s objections. I know have my driving privileges back and I can’t thank Attorney Rudes enough!

As an owner/operator of my business as a truckdriver, I found myself in a situation that eventually put me near bankruptcy and a record on my license. I was out of work for many months and was going to give up my fight when I met Terrence. I met him after hearing him speak and all is history from the...re. I would NOT be where I am today, if it weren't for Terrence! I can honestly say that he went well above and beyond any expectations! (At the point of our meeting, I was ready to give up). The message I received from my previous lawyer was, the case is closed and the results were what they were. Terrence saw the mistakes when I showed him my ruling and the records I had from the previous lawyer, and his words were "I'm not guaranteeing anything, but I will look into it and get back with you." That set the road to my returning to my truck and my record being fixed when I thought my business and my trucking days were over and done. Terrence was truly a blessing, when we met and I would recommend him and his talent to anyone! As a lawyer, he has an empathetic side, which my previous lawyer did not. His ability to work with you on a personal level is unmatched from other lawyers. Terrence is not a lawyer, he is an angel! I can go on and on, but there really aren't enough words to express my gratitude and Terrence will never know the extent of how he changed my life and saved my business! He is a wonderful man, and an EXCELLENT lawyer! To those who may think this is too good to be true, its the truth! I will be forever thankful that our paths met. If you do not have Terrence as your lawyer, you have the wrong lawyer! Thank you Terrence!
