3rd DUI Reduced to Reckless Driving

I hired Attorney Oswald after being charged with a 3rd OWI/DUI. He took great care to listen to my case and explain everything I was facing. He went right to work and kept me informed of everything he was doing along the way. As I was not driving my vehicle when I was arrested, Attorney Oswald fel...t I had a good case for a jury trial. I actually was able to avoid the stress of a jury trial, as he was able to plea bargain my case down to a Reckless Driving fine. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case and I would highly recommend Attorney Oswald for his professionalism & knowledge of the law.

PROFFESIONAL,RESPECTFUL,AWESOME

I was facing my first OWI and a co-worker recommended Jeff Oswald. Am I glad i made that phone call-from then on I knew i was in good, capable hands! My situation was a bit more difficult because i picked up my daughter, who is 15, a couple miles from home, so she was in the car. So everything I was ...facing was actually the same as a second offense. Jeff went right to work on my case, always keeping me informed on what was going on. He went to court on my behalf and i only had to be there for the final plea/sentencing hearing. I was facing up to 6 months jail time and I only got 10 days. He really knows his stuff and what was quite an intimidating and scary time for me was less stressful with him in my corner! He always explained everything, answered all my questions, and really reassured me and made me feel at ease. I never once felt judged for the stupid mistake I made. His assistant, Amy, was amazing also with very prompt responses to anything I needed. I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone who needs legal help-He was great in the courtroom too! Thanks again Jeff and Amy!

3rd OWI/refuasal

Attorney Jeff Oswald helped me through the worst time in my life! It was my 3rd OWI and a refusal charge. I was facing immediate revocation because of the refusal, 45 days to 1 year of jail time as well 2 to 3 years revocation once convicted. Upon my initial call I had an appointment with Jeff the... next day. Jeff and Amy treated me with great professionalism, always responded to emails and calls quickly, eased my worst fears and helped me to understand the process and what the expected outcomes would be. Jeff’s great representation allowed me to retain my license for a few months until my sentencing. He also attended all court appearances on my behalf other than my initial appearance and my sentencing. Jeff worked with the DA to get a great plea deal on my behalf. The refusal charge was dropped, I was sentenced to 33 days (25 days actual) in jail, I was released on GPS that evening, and a 2 year revocation. I am extraordinarily grateful to Jeff for such a good outcome in my case. I highly recommend Jeffrey Oswald!!

Great guide through the legal jargon.

When I was accused of sexual assault and manufacturing of THC I had no idea what I was going to do, how to do it, or where I should even start. Jeff was recommended to me from a friend. Upon meeting with him and a few other attorneys, I chose to go with him, still unaware of what laid ahead. It took ...over a year for the DA to finally press charges, at which time, neither Jeff nor I were notified of the charges until after I stumbled upon them online, few days before my initial trial. This didn't phase Jeff like it did myself and he got right to work. After what seemed like an eternity to me (but in reality was very brief for felony charges), we finally neared the end of my hearing. By this time, Jeff had worked out a plea deal that would get my felony charge dismissed. Considering the circumstances and the potential for much worse outcomes, I couldn't be happier with the work he did.

Helping Navigate the Legal Process During an Unpleasant Time

I hired Jeff as my attorney to represent me in a first-offense DUI case. To compound the mistake that I had made that evening, I had refused to take a breathalyzer/blood test which only made my legal outcome look worse. I hired on Jeff after reading a few reviews online and seeing the Hammett, Bellin... & Oswald firm being list as one of the top firms in the area for dealing with said cases. After speaking with Jeff briefly and paying a reasonable fee, he and his team of paralegals were there with me throughout the process. We were able to settle out of court, which was especially important as I don't live in the same county as the trial. He was able to drop both the refusal and the need for any interlock device, which was the best possible outcome I was hoping for. On top of the positive outcome, Jeff was very prompt with all communications, alleviating some of the stress that comes with situations like this one. I would not hesitate to recommend Jeff and his team at Hammett, Bellin & Oswald for anyone seeking representation in DUI/DWI matters.
