Any shaw DUI

In court and had used this guy for years all I got was jail time. I never had a DUI and the state is asking for 18 months class for a 1st timer I know I got a jail history but somethings I'm not going to context to I'm this state office gave me a walk test when it really dark and I told him I walk wi...th a cane and walker. So of course I couldn't walk right but if you're going to charge me with a DUI then test me no breathalyzer, no blood I don't even drink. And he tells me to take the class . You guys are so so right I should have looked on this first he*s paid and he doesn't want to do anything. Man I do dum I should have did my homework. I was just on life support through God's blessings he heal me. I go to court tomorrow. Hope I can get this over my head it is stressing me out and I am a sick person now. I don't have time for this. This man to work for me.

Steven D. Pick is a nasty lawyer just like others said on this site!

I contacted attorney Steven D. Pick to do a spa notary and made an appointment for the afternoon to meet with him. The document that I needed notarized was from a different country and it said on the Consulate website that he was authorized to do it. The night before I contacted the foreign lawyer to... let him know I was getting an spa done for my elderly parents by Steven D. Pick and the foreign lawyer said that the notarized document needed to have a approved seal on it. I emailed Steven D. Pick at 7:30am and also left 2 voicemails and a text prior to our 4pm meeting asking he can do a seal. Lawyer Steve Pick got very angry and first told me that the seal he can't do, but then said he is with the consulate and can notarize it..thats me! Can he or can't he? This was a very confusing statement and I needed a further explanation. Steven D. Pick then became a enormous jerk and said I wasted his time and told me I don't know what I'm doing (note: I'm not a lawyer or notary), and Steven D. Pick was so unsympathetic, uncaring, and said if I want his help to do a notary he wants $1000 upfront. $1000 to do an spa notary? This is robbery and very unethical! He is an arrogant, nasty and mean slimeball lawyer that you should stay away from!!

Me vs HFS

I've only dealt with Steven Pick for a short period of time. But so far he has been caring, compassionate, realistic and responded within a timely manner.

Best decision i made

I hired this attorney and it was the best decision i made. Facing prison time after blowing numerous chances on probation and not completing all terms of Probation ... he in just the first court date settled everything and I stay out of prison and only have to serve 38 days. I couldnt be happier. He ...was on time and on point. Thank you. I definitely highly recommend Mr. Steven pick
