10/10 would recommend!

I got arrested in December 2018, the end of the year to top it off.. for driving under the influence. I’ve never been in trouble with the law nor thought I would ever be. I was speeding 25 over and failed to stay in a single lane. I’m thankful no one was with me or involved. I’m thankful I wasn’t hur...t. I made a mistake and had to face the consequences. I was nervous and scared what was to come my way. I hired Zach Smith to be my attorney, honestly the best out there! He reassured me that everything was going to be okay. Zach is very knowledgeable about dui cases, overall the law enforcement. Zach got me a deferred sentence and won my drivers license case, I will not have an interlock device installed in my car. Which has saved me so much money! Zach understands and doesn’t treat you any less of a human because I (you) made an unfortunate stupid mistake. Thank you!!

My DUI

Zach Smith was the best of the best attorneys I could ever ask for. I was arrested for a DUI and he got me down to a deferred sentence and also won my DL case so I wouldnt lose my license and I also don’t have to have the blow device in my truck and I’m so ecstatic about it! He IS THE BEST!

Hired attorney

I hired Zach after I was arrested for a DUI. Due to my profession, I was very scared about what might happened to me as well as my job. Zach was a straight shooter, knew exactly how my case would turn out before the court dates and was very good at keeping me calm throughout this very hectic and nerv...e wrecking time in my life. Zack was able to get me a deferred sentence and also won my Driver's license hearing so that my DL will never be revoked. I will never be required to have a blow device installed in my vehicle, something you would normally have to do for an additional 18 months after the 6-month suspension (if I had lost). Zach was honest with me during the entire process and delivered what he promised. He is an excellent DUI attorney and would highly recommend him!

Excellent DUI Attorney

Zach is a consummate professional. He patiently and adeptly gives you, as his client, the lay of the land. Sets expectations and then delivers. He represented me on a DUI charge; and due to his expertise I received a deferred sentence, no license revocation, and I was not required to place an inte...rlock device on my vehicle. I cannot recommend Zach highly enough to anyone that has made the same unfortunate choice I did and wants the absolute best representation.

DUI

My son was arrested for a DUI, he received a deferred sentence and his DL was not revoked thanks to Mr. Zach Smith. He won the hearing and is as if my son never received the DUI. Thank you so much!
