The Best of The Best

I unfortunately got myself into a bad situation with a DUI and a high speeding ticket during the same stop. I came across Steve’s 5 star profile and read testimonials and knew he was the one. He contacted me almost immediately after I submitted a request to talk further. Steve made the entire pro...cess unbelievably easy and stress free. He answered every question I had and always in a timely manner, and often times I didn’t even have to ask questions because he was so detailed the information he provided. He kept updated throughout the entire process without me having to ask and was always available via email, call or text. He took ALL the stress out of what was originally an EXTREMELY stressful time. He got me a great plea deal, unsupervised probation, and my speeding ticket (which was very high) to a non moving violation. Keeping my record in great shape. He was also very kind and patient.

Very Dependable

Steve did amazing job and was very informative throughout the entire case process. When i first consulted with Attorney Schanker and considered hiring him for my case, i truly felt that he had my best interest in mind and that he genuinely cared about my situation. He was great with laying out my opt...ions and thoroughly explaining each of my options to me. I hope to never find myself in a predicament where i need a lawyer again, however if there ever comes a time when i do, i will have no hesitation working with Attorney Schanker again.

Steve will get the best result that you want!

Steve took my call while he was in Mexico. I explained my situation to him then he asked me to come into his office on Monday. There, he explained everything that I needed to know about my case. He assured me that he will take care of the matter and not too worry. He is very knowledgeable about t...he law; he has 20+ years of experience! Steve is patient; he answered all my questions whether in person, text, email or calls. He puts me at ease through out the whole process. His flat rate fee is very reasonable. Steve will get you the results that you want! I would recommend Steve to anyone!

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.
