Posted by anonymous | April 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Excellent DWI Lawyer - Highly recommend!

Our 20 year old son was arrested for a DWI. Having no prior experience with the judicial system, this news was both devastating and anxiety producing for my husband and I. We had no idea where to turn to or what we needed to do first. On the advice of a good friend, we hired Grant Borgen to represe...nt our son. From our first meeting through resolution, Grant provided not only excellent legal advisement and counsel, he took the time to thoroughly explain the process, patiently answering numerous questions and ensuring that we understood what to expect at each step. His calm, consistent and pragmatic approach was reassuring during a very stressful time. Grant was readily accessible by email or phone. His follow-through was exceptional, often responding that same day. Grant was also able to develop a trusting rapport with our son, allowing our son to freely discuss the details of his arrest and to be comfortable asking Grant questions to get clarification. We feel this collaborative approach was a key element in the successful outcome of our son's DWI case. We are so grateful to Grant and would highly recommend him for your legal needs.
