I was looking at possibly a second owi charge within the past 9yrs and the loss of my career and house were at stake. I first hired a lawyer out of panic and without doing my homework. After a couple court dates and him not returning my calls and texts until days later if at all. I started to worry i...f he even cared. When I finally talked to him he pretty much was saying to take the first plea. A plea I could have gotten on my own. I listened to my gut and decided to research the best lawyers around what was at stake was to important! I found Gary and Kathy Springstead and liked what I saw. The reviews I read about them were spot on. After hiring them it was like night and day between them and my previous attorney. All my questions were answered, all my calls and texts were returned. I actually felt reassured they were there to help me. Gave me a good peace of mind that I hadn't felt or had sense the arrest. After reviewing my case the police report and surveillance video. I was told by them I had a case worth fighting. We filed a motion for dismissal. They were able to find that the officer didn't conduct any of the test properly and the actual stop didn't have probable cause. Kathy ended up writing out in extreme detail a 28 page motion listing everything down to the second. Over 5 months from the time it occurred here I am. I took a plea to a very minor misomeanor just to surface the court to think they won something for doing their job incorrectly. But no jail no fines no probation and kept my CDL and all driving privileges! I couldn't be happier well worth every penny. Making that phone call to Gary and Kathy I know changed my life/future I would highly recommend them!!

Gary and his team are professional, courteous, and know the law above the average lawyers that handle similar cases. After searching many lawyers for my husband's OWI charge we went with Gary and glad we did! My husband was facing a 3rd drunk driving the way the police report was written so it was im...portant we hired the best so he wouldn't lose his job, home and ability to care for his family. Gary got his charges dropped down to a snowmobile offense, which was appropriate, and dropped from a serious felony to a misdemeanor. Not only is Gary very educated and experienced, his assistant Katie is amazing too! She was so polite and informative and always quick to answer any questions and send updated e-mails. Trust me when your life is in jeopardy, it's worth paying for the best. You get what you pay for and we weren't not about to jeopardize our future going with a cheaper representative who would not get the results Gary and Katie gaurentee you.

I was arrested for DUI. The reason for being pulled over, the officer heard someone squeal their tires. I was driving my new red Dodge Challenger RT following behind 4 other cars coming off an off ramp. He pulled me over and asked if I had been drinking. I admitted I had 3 beers. I was arrested... and needed an attorney with knowledge. After researching lawyers, I decided to make an appointment with Springstead, Bartish and Borgula Law. Mike Bartish was the lawyer we hired. Once meeting with him and weighing the options for the case, we decided to go forward with the case and court. Mike needed to be out of town when the preliminary date was set. Gary Springstead stepped in and accompanied us to court. He came prepared with facts on our car and complimented Mike very well. After he met with the Prosecutor and Judge the case had an outcome we didn't expect....Careless Driving, misdemeanor offense. These two men went above and beyond for us in this case to give us the best odds possible. We can't thank them enough for their guidance and efforts. We give them our highest recommendation.
