Douglas E. Zeit

Doug has been my personal lawyer for over 30 years. He has represented me in all levels of law from divorces and child support to criminal cases. I have recommended him to many people over the years. He has always been available for me sometimes after hours. I would recommend him to anyone for legal ...reasons in all types of cases. His son has joined him and is a good addition to his firm. Joe is following his father's footsteps well. Jeannie is very attentive to your needs and puts a personal touch to the office. I appreciate all they have done for me over the years.

Beyond his brilliant legal expertise, Doug really knows his court. He represented me in a DUI case and helped me get the best outcome I could have possibly hoped for. Seeing him in the courtroom cajole with the clerks and other staff, I could see he is well liked and highly respected in Lake County.... He has a reputation which helps him win where other lawyers would fail. Thanks Doug, for holding the line on our constitutional rights!

My family hired Mr. Zeit to represent a family member in a criminal matter. Mr. Zeit was difficult to get ahold of, cancelled numerous appointments, failed to keep the client informed of court dates, failed to show up when there was a court date, completely fail to communicate at all with his client.... Mr. Zeit is, however, very good at asking for money and perpetuates the stereotype of defense attorneys and why many people lack respect for them and the system in general.
