Retired professional

I never needed an attorney for a driving ticket before. I was very concerned that my insurance rates would go up moving violation and a point on my driving record. I am so grateful to Steve and the person who referred me to him. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Steve takes care of business... in a quick, uncomplicated manner. Thank you Steve.

Excellent Lawyer

Steve handled my case quickly, professionally and in my best interest. He made everything so simple. His services are very considerably priced and worth every dime. I asked a lot of questions throughout the process and he answered each one within minutes (email and text) and kept my stress levels dow...n. I would hire him in a heartbeat if I had a traffic, injury or criminal case. He is an excellent lawyer.

Best service with best price

Between all the lawyers that I called he was the only one actually listen everything and cacthed all the details that other lawyers couldn't! I am a truck driver with cdl and he dismissed my 4 tickets ! I totally recommend him to anyone who have a problem in the area

Fantastic Results

Steve Schanker has been wonderful to work with... My son found himself faced with potential jail time for a moving violation. I called in a panic & left a crazy message; Steve returned my call within 30 minutes. He was knowledgeable & helpful in explaining the situation and how best to approach it.... Furthermore, Steve has been endlessly patient w/ my multiple inquiries. He painlessly and affordably resolved the situation with a better than I had hoped. Steve could not have been any better to work with & I would not only recommend him, but would use his services again if necessary.
