As advertised!

I looked for an attorney who would gaurentee their success, although I was told that a first go at an administrative review may have negative results, Mr. Randa's office assured me that they would continue to try untill they got the win. It didn't take long! Mr. Randa and his firm know the system and... have the reputation to get you a successful outcome! Super pleased!!! Highly recommend;

High BAC DWI With Property and Vehicle Damage

I found myself in a situation where after an evening celebrating promotions of co-workers, I decided I was fine to drive 4 miles to my girlfriend's house. Unfortunately, I took a turn too sharp and ended up totalling my vehicle and spent a night in jail. It was a huge mistake and an embarrassment. I ...didn't know what to do. Everything I read online had me convinced I would be spending more time in jail, losing my license, and in turn I would lose custody of my children, lose my job, house and everything else. I was devastated. I started my search for "best DUI lawyer in Macomb County". Jeffrey Randa came up as one of the top lawyers. He was initially my second choice until I started reading his blogs. He instantly struck a cord with me when I read how he handles cases based on admitting your mistakes and handling them accordingly, rather than what I read from other lawyers on how they "fight the system" for you. I'm the type of person that admits my mistakes and does what it takes to make things right. That's when I called his office. Everyone I spoke with was very polite and based on my clean record, they convinced me that everything was going to be alright. I retained his services over the phone after a brief consultation. I completed a preemptive alcohol assessment by their suggestion, and provided his team of lawyers with a short bio of who I am and what I do. With this information, they were able to draft a favorable Deviation Request. I spent a few months fearful of the outcome of a potential trial. The expert staff of lawyers at the Randa law firm were very knowledgeable of the process and on a first name basis with the prosecutor, judge and court employees where my pre-trial was held. They're due diligence and hard work were successful as my deviation was accepted and I agreed upon a plea for Impaired Driving. This was the best possible outcome as I was able to admit my mistake and not have to spend time in jail, or lose my license. I was also spared from the embarrassment of being required to have an ignition lock on my family vehicle. I'd like to thank Jeffery Randa and especially his staff; Ann (who was always chill and made me feel relaxed), Tonya (whom I met with for my face-to-face consultation and wrote up the deviation), and Genevive (who expertly handled my case at the court and avoided going to trial by getting the deviation accepted the day of pre-trial). I'm very thankful for their understanding of how much this outcome meant to myself and my livelihood.

Knowledgable, Friendly, and Determined

I hired Jeffrey Randa to help me with the Michigan driver's restoration process. My license had been revoked for years due to DUIs in my past, and I had also moved out of state. I hired Jeffrey based on online information as well as my communications with him. He has a educational online presence.... His blog contains pages and pages of information on driver's license laws in Michigan, addiction, as well as the process one undergoes in Michigan in the attempt to restore a license. Once hired, we went to work straight away. He has a rule to only take out-of-state cases if the client is willing to come back to Michigan for the hearing process. He also has a rule to only take cases where the client has achieved sobriety. I was willing to do what it took to get my license back. On the first visit, Jeffrey clearly defined what I was up against, and he clearly defined the objective and goals in presenting a case before the hearing officers at the driver's license hearing. He told me exactly what I needed to do, as well as what he was going to do to win the case. One of the requirements for a license restoration case in is to have letters of recommendation. Jeffrey explains that these are very important as they are evidence that a person is indeed living in the way they say they are living. Jeffrey has the client secure these from friends, family, and co-workers well ahead of time so that he may critic them and make suggestions to align them with hearing officer expectations. When it was finally time for my hearing, Jeffrey gave me an overview of the hearing officer I would be sitting with, as well as the types of questions he felt she would ask. He was spot on in his analysis. I felt prepared going into the hearing. With Jeffrey's help, my case was won right at the hearing. The hearing officer, after looking at the evidence and hearing my testimony, granted my license on the record right at the hearing! In many cases it will take a few weeks to a month to get a decision. I couldn't be happier. There was money involved, as there always is with these things, but placing your money in Jeffrey Randa if you are dealing with a driver's license restoration case is worth the cost, because he will get your license back.

Thank you for the great review Vaso. Sobriety is the key to a successful Michigan driver's license restoration. You did the hardest part when you stopped drinking.

Mr. Randa clearly knows what he is doing. He has represented a handful of my family members, and has always exceeded our expectations. If you're looking for an attorney who spends time on your case and has a knowledgeable staff, Mr. Randa is the way to go.
