DUI in KCMO

Highly recommend you call Steve Schanker if you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing a DUI attorney. He is knowledgeable, direct, and reassuring. From the moment of arrest through to the successful resolution of my case, Steve made sure I felt informed and supported every step of the ...way. He is simply the best.

Excellent representation by a respectable lawyer

I have had a need to have this lawyer represent me in three situations that resulted from 1 poor decision I executed. The results were outstanding, and the value was unmatched in todays market.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
