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.

I highly recommend Steve who handles personal injury, traffic and criminal cases. He was very patient with explaining the process of handling my case from start to finish. He is very knowledgeable and definitely is someone I recommend to represent others!

Best Attorney in KC Hands Down

Steve is probably the best attorney out there. Saved me a whole lot of time for a case I had. I could not have asked for more, almost put me to tears knowing he got me an outstanding deal on closing my case. If you want someone to work you case with supreme confidence, Steve is the man to get the job... done. Experience attorney, I highly recommend you will not be disappointed.

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.
