Posted by anonymous | September 29, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

I thought I lost it all.

I was caught speeding on my motorcycle going 103 MPH in a 55 on North avenue in Ogle County. This is a class A misdemeanor criminal charge. This was a big deal for me becasue I am a truck driver and if I lost my driving privelage, I would be put out of work. I called Mr. Delbert and he listened to wh...at happened without judging me. I felt embarrassed to call in at first but he heard what I did, explained the trouble that I'm in and immediately gave me a strategy about how we will fight this case. He treated me like a freind every time we spoke. In the end get this.. No driving school. No community service. No suspension of my license. No criminal conviction. All I got was a $750 ticket and some supervision. Once the supervision ends it's like this never happened. Before I hired Mr. Delbert the prosecuter basically told me I'm looking at a Class A Mosdemenor and up to 365 days in jail and he wouldn't budge to drop it. After I got help from Mr. Delbert like I stated above was a day and night difference. My recommendation to anyone that has any traffic case even minor always call a lawyer and never deal with the prosecuter yourself. They are not your freind and not on your side. I own my own semi truck and if I lost my ability to drive, I would literally go bankrupt as I am still paying off my truck. Mr. Delbert stood strong and did not accept any lowball deal they threw at us and he saved me and my family from financial ruin. This case to me wasn't just fighting a speeding ticket, this case determined the future for me and my family. I owe you everything Mr. Delbert, you are a true man of class, thank you.

Excellent

I came to Donald for help in my sons case. My son was charged with 7 felonies, and 4 mistamenors . He was very honest with me from the beginning, he gave great legal advice . He understood my heart was aching. He fought hard for my sons case. It was a very difficult case. My son was facing a lot ...of time. He got most of the charges dropped . And he got a lot of years knocked off, from what the original offer was. I believe he put his heart into my sons case. And he informed me of everything that was going on through the whole case. He is an excellent person, as well as an excellent attorney and a well knowledge one. He was always there every time I called him. I would recommend him to anyone . He is definitely worth every penny. Thank you, for everything Mr. Delbert.

No Worries With Delbert

I ran into some trouble for the first time and Mr. Delbert told me with confidence that we were going to take care of it with no problem. Instead of worrying, I wish I had listened! As we walked into court together, Don took a few moments to observe the courtroom and within 5 minutes he was reporting... back to me with confidence what was going to happen that day with my case. Don made everything very clear to me, and made sure I knew what was going on every step of the way. As I told my father ,"it was like he walked in the courtroom and took full charge of the situation." I'd recommend Don's services to anyone - no matter the crime or background.
