OWI 4th

One word to sum up John "AWESOME". I had quite a complicated case. I have a seizure disorder and the police found me up on a curb because I had a seizure. I was going through post epileptic shock while the police were trying to give me a field sobriety test. I couldn't even stand on my own. The polic...e took a sample of my blood while I was still incoherent, I could only scribble my name and had no idea what I was signing. Several months later I received a letter from the police stating they were going to charge me with an OWI 4th because of my prescription meds found in my system along with cough medicine. John filed several motions through out the course of my case all which were very well written and easy to understand. John worked tirelessly on my case and was always available to talk to if I needed him for anything. Through out my case I noticed how some of the other attorneys talked down to their clients some even yelling at them. This was not John at all. He truly was sincere and cared about me as a person and was determined to get me off of my OWI charge. We were able to get the blood evidence suppressed through a motion and we new then it was only a matter of time until the prosecution would make an offer or drop the charges, they knew I had a seizure and for some reason kept on trying to pursue a conviction, but by us winning the motion to suppress the blood evidence they had nothing to go on. A couple weeks later they made an offer to drop the OWI 4th and charge me with reckless driving instead which was a $200 fine and 6 points off my license but no jail time. I can't promise the same outcome for other cases, but I can promise you that John will work tirelessly on your case to get you the best outcome possible.

Retain John - you'll be glad you did

After a phone consultation I where I explained my situation I scheduled a meeting in his office. John was very knowledgeable, came up with a game plan and I just stayed out of his way and let him do his thing. Bit by bit, the prosecution case against me unraveled until finally I received a call from... John saying that the case had been dismissed. John was great at attacking them from all sides and executing his plan as he'd originally drawn it up. When there were a couple of times he spotted an opportunity to change tactics, he did so and it worked out magnificently. John was also great at keeping me informed during all phases of my case. Tell him what's going on, then stay out of his way and wait for the good news. I've known several attorneys and worked for a few and I can say, without reservation, that John is great at his job. Call John, then hire John - you'll be glad that you did! I would HIGHLY recommend him...

John Bayer is fantastic

My legal experience could have been much more stressful, but thanks to John Bayer I was confident that my case would be a winning case - and it was. John Bayer is an attentive, responsive, and intelligent attorney with a strong drive to take on difficult cases and win them. I would recommend him to a...bsolutely anyone in need of legal advice or services. He will be a strong legal as well as emotional counsel and will make you feel comfortable.
