Dale Naticchia

I would highly recommend getting Dale as your lawyer. He really got me down to the lowest penalties that I could have gotten. He kept me in the loop the whole time and always kept me thinking positive. He actually looked very far into things, instead of just going through the motions. He is awesome a...nd I guarantee you will be happy with his outcome!

From the moment Dale answered my call on a Sunday afternoon (the day after my arrest), my panic began to subside. This was my first OVI, and I was incredibly distressed. Blowing twice the legal limit, I knew penalties would be severe, but knew nothing about the legal process involved. In this initial... conversation (and each one thereafter), Dale assured me that I had no need to worry- he would take care of everything. Even though I was drowning in a sea of fear and anxiety, his calming presence paired with an excellent knowledge of the law, brought me to a more positive place. Incredibly, because of Dale's intricate knowledge of OVI laws and forms, my automatic license suspension was waived, as the form used by the arresting officer was outdated. It was during our initial conversation that these investigative questions were asked, and I was impressed by his familiarity of the local principality and its court. It is important to hire an attorney who's friendly to the array of courts (conservative-liberal) in NE Ohio, and Dale is. After our first pre-trial Dale recommended I do the mandatory 72 hour driver's intervention course to be proactive in the eyes of the court. I was certainly not looking forward to spending three days locked up in a hotel, listening to someone drone on about the evils of alcohol and obeying traffic laws. I followed Dale's recommendation to attend State Professional Services program (there are many choices), and the weekend was incredible on so many levels. Its something I would do again, by choice…truly! All in all, I consider Dale to be nothing short of a miracle worker. I was stopped by the arresting officer at 2:30am because my car had one taillight out,no moving violation whatsoever. Dale's steadfast pursuit resulted in a plea bargain in which the OVI was dropped (operating a vehicle with only one functioning taillight is legal in Ohio!), and there are no points on my license. Last but not least, Dale's assistant, Connie, keeps this smooth running legal machine in perfect service. I am forever grateful.
