Fantastic Attorney

First and foremost, disregard any negative reviews you may have seen or read about Attorney Haupt... they could not be more beyond the scope of reality. None of them are even close to relevant according to my experience. I have had to use other lawyers in my life for other circumstances and they we...re great. But, Jim was the best. He went above and beyond when I needed him the most. He would ALWAYS call me back and / or reply to my texts. He even has texted me way after normal working hours to update me on my case. He also worked on my case all hours of the day and night. He also took my call and met me on a Sunday for a consult. He is aggressive and a fantastic negotiator. That only happens if you know the facts and proof of the case, in which he did. Not only did his hard work get me the lowest penalty possible but he was extremely down to earth and personable the whole time. God forbid I never need a criminal defense lawyer again, but if I did, he would be the first person I would call. Even after my case was resolved, he still answers my calls if I need advice. Not only is he a great attorney but he is a great person. I am genuinely grateful I was even able to meet him. I say good luck in finding a lawyer with all of those qualities. If you are in need for an impeccable attorney, he is the perfect candidate. Also remember, we all make mistakes and that does not define who we are as human beings. Stay strong, confident, positive, and call Jim Haupt today!

Don't even bother

James Haupt is the epitome of unprofessionalism. We hired him to represent my brother in a DUI case and he lied constantly. He never answered his phone and when he got back to us, he was always beyond rude. He even failed to show up to my brother's court dates when he needed to. Do not waste your tim...e and money.

Professional

I’m not writing this review because I got a great outcome, I am writing this because I’ve been in trouble before and Mr Haupt from the beginning told me what might happen from good to bad. He retuned every call, and believe me I called a lot more than I should of, he made it convenient for me when I... wasn’t able to drive, and was always truthful when I asked questions. He did everything possible to fight for the best possible outcome and he got it! So even if I would not have gotten what I wanted i would still rate him the best attorney professionally and as a person. There is no bad thing I can say and would hire him again ,god forbid , if I ever get in trouble and would recommend him to anyone who is in trouble.

So far so good

Whomever gave him a bad rating must just be mad because his case was unwinnable. This guy is responsive and available. You don’t need to call your attorney every 20 minutes people! He took my case at the last minute - we have an uphill battle but I have 5 tons of weight off of my shoulders !
