Highly Recommended

Gary quickly and effectively resolved a legal issue I was facing. He and his office staff stayed in contact to keep me up to date as he knowledgeably worked to find a solution to my case. I would highly recommend Gary and his firm to anyone looking for highly qualified and competent legal counsel...!

OWI case

Back in December I was stopped and charged with my first OWI. I knew I was going to need a lawyer to represent me and I was lucky enough to have Gary represent me. I went in nervous because this was going to potentially make me lose my job and my CDL. after talking with Gary I gained a lot of confide...nce that he was going to do his job and fight for me. Gary went above and beyond for me and worked super hard on this case. After Gary reviewed everything he made it sound like he was going to beat this case. After 5 months that of fighting we went to trial in front of a jury. Gary fought all the way to the end of trial to prove that I was innocent. At the end of the trial he convinced and proved to the jury that I was not guilty. And the jury came to verdict that I was not guilty and I had the OWI dropped. Very impressed with him. He made my wife, kids and I very happy and the stress completely gone. I would recommend Gary to anyone that needed someone to represent them. He is very smart with laws and knowing the in and outs of everything. He doesn't stop fighting till the very end. Couldn't thank him enough.

Outstanding Lawyer & Council!

This was the first time I had faced any sort of legal altercation... Especially while visiting a music festival. Gary & team took the time from day one to help my friend and I understand what we were facing and all the implications that came with it. From start to finish Gary held our hands and m...ade sure that at all times we knew what was going on and where we stood from a legal standpoint. He was able to help calm anxieties, clarify all the terminology being throw around and provided clear insight as to how we "as a team" were going to take it on. He explained at great lengths the charges, all next steps and followed up at every level of the proceedings. It's because of Gary, his team and all the help he provided that my friend and I are walking out of the situation as free men with minimal reprocussions.

Highly Recommended

I was arrested and charged with several misdemeanors including OWI and having a concealed pistol in my vehicle while under the influence. After reviewing the police reports and other pertinent information, Gary was able to get all of the misdemeanors dismissed and I was only charged with a civil infr...action for careless driving. I was extremely happy with the outcome. Gary and his entire staff are very professional and were responsive to my calls and emails. Gary has the experience and expertise to fight for your rights get the best results possible.

Life Lessons 101

I recently had the misfortune of learning the following lessons the hard way. Had I been convicted I was facing Life plus 15 years and 93 days and a ton of fines. Luckily I found Gary K. Springstead just in the nick of time and he was able to advocate for me and get the charges reduced down to a plea... that puts me on 1 year of felony probation and 2 years of misdemeanor probation with felony being dismissed upon completion of probation. 1. Sometimes the people we love the most will hurt us the worst. 2. Do NOT ever under any circumstances talk to the cops about anything ever! 3. Local attorneys in small ponds can be a greater detriment than an asset. 4. When your life is one the line money doesn't matter. 5. The system is brutal and brutally unfair and biased. Once they get their teeth in you they won't just let go. 6. Very few people or attorneys really care about your plight. 7. You personally have no voice in the system 8. You need someone special with an extensive knowledge of the law that is willing to learn the details of your particular case and fight for you as you would for yourself. 9. Do not hesitate to call Gary. The minute you find out you have a problem, spare yourself the mistake of hiring a less competent attorney, hire Gary immediately and watch him start to use his extensive knowledge of the law to help undue your situation. I found him right here on AVVO after hiring a different attorney first. I'm really glad I did! I'm convinced that he did as good or better for me than anyone else could. The previous 102 reviews are accurate and truthful. As far as I'm concerned he is the BEST attorney around. He saved my life!!! Thank you very much Gary - I appreciate all you did for me.
