Carl David Ceder

If you find yourself facing a DWI charge, look no further than Carl David Ceder. Don’t let his younger appearance or four years practicing give you the false impression that he might not be as experienced as somebody else. That is simply not the case. Trust me when I say that I interviewed abo...ut 15 different lawyers before deciding who to hire for my particular case, including most of the top ranked DWI defense attorneys in the DFW area found on this very website, some who had been practicing law for 30 years or longer. Carl blew every one of them away in terms of knowledge, personality, confidence, and poise. It wasn’t even close. It’s very clear when you meet somebody who is good at what they do and flat out knows it, and this is definitely the case with Carl. When you factor in what some of these guys are charging and then consider that there is no such thing as a criminal defense attorney that can 100% guarantee you a not guilty verdict (despite what some of them might have you believe), the decision is pretty easy. Don’t take my word for it though. Interview whoever you want for yourself and then schedule a consultation with Carl. You’ll see what I mean. This guy knows what he’s doing, knows the law from front to back, and knows how to use the facts in your particular case to work to your advantage in the best way possible. He will fight hard to protect your rights and give you the best possible chance of a favorable outcome. All cases are different and I can only speak to my own experience, but he got my DWI thrown out and reduced to an Obstruction of a Highway charge in a county that NEVER does this, and he did it without even having to go to trial (though we were prepared to). You can visit his website and view several examples of similar success stories as well. Hopefully this is the first and last time I will ever need to employ his legal expertise, but if I find myself or somebody I know in a similar situation needing legal assistance I would not hesitate to use Carl again or give him a recommendation.

I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Cedar over an 8 month period. As a medical professional, I noted that Carl Cedar is among those highly trained and experienced in the demanding discipline of criminal litigation. He holds degrees from a leading university and law school. Equally important, he c...ares deeply about his clients and is committed to representing them fairly. He takes pride in the positive accomplishments in his professional defense work. He was pleased with the "not guilty" verdict. His behavior was professional in contrast with the unprofessional petulance and emotional tantrum evidenced by the prosecuting attorney. I highly recommend Mr. Cedar for defense representation

I got a ticket for possession of drug paraphernalia and completely freaked out; I literally watched as everything I had worked so hard to achieve vanished before my eyes as that cop wrote the ticket. I work for a bank and a “blemish” like that on my record would have ruined my career; leading to ...termination the next time I had to submit to annual certification which includes a background check. I found Carl Ceder on line, and after reading through all the reviews, chose to hire him to represent me as I fought to get my life back on track. From the very first time I spoke to him on the phone he assured me he would do everything in his power to achieve the best possible outcome for me; I instantly felt like I could breathe again, like I had a friend in my corner I could really trust. We kept in close contact via text, email, and phone. He even made time to meet with me in between court appearances with other clients one day to help calm my nerves by discussing the details of my case. He quickly responded to my every question and concern and kept me informed throughout the whole scary process. He wrote a letter to the Municipal Court in Westlake, TX which granted me a spot on an attorney docket a month later. We met at the courthouse on the day of my docket and sat there for over two hours waiting for them to call my name. When the judge finally did, Carl went in on my behalf. I sat there for the longest 15 minutes of my life; my future in the hands of a man I had found on the internet! He absolutely lived up to his reputation. He was able to get my ticket deferred , which means in 30 days all charges will be dropped! As if that wasn’t enough, he then informed me that some laws had recently changed and in 120 days I could apply to have this whole thing expunged from my record completely! Thanks to Carl’s knowledge and hard work, all that I have worked for both in my personal and professional life has not been lost. I hope to never need Carl’s help again, but will keep his business card safely tucked in my wallet for the rest of my life just in case!

A few months ago, I found myself in an unfortunate situation that required me to procure legal counsel. I had been arrested under suspicion of driving while under the influence of alcohol. The time from my arrest to final disposition of my case was, without question, one of the most difficult, stre...ssful, and humiliating times I have experienced. However, I am grateful I was able to find an attorney like Carl Cedar to represent me. As a person who had never had problems with the law, I needed someone I could trust to lead me through the legal system. I could not have asked for anyone better to help me than Carl. Like most people that have never been arrested I had no idea what to do other than get an attorney. All I wanted was to get through the process, settle the case, get probation, and take a punishment. Luckily I found Carl; I knew he would be my attorney from the first phone conversation when he tried putting me at ease and listened, before I ever agreed to hire him. Like anyone who has been arrested knows, after your arrest you get bombarded with emails and junk mail, Carl was the only attorney that returned calls and offered honest advice. I remember meeting Carl and being a nervous wreck he quickly put me at ease by telling me that it was his job to worry for me, knowing that someone was out there fighting for me put me at great ease. As mentioned earlier all I wanted was to take a punishment as I assumed arrest meant guilt, luckily Carl adviced against it and I took my case to trial. During trial Carl was the upmost professional, he knew more about DWI testing and law than the arresting officer. I was found not guilty and later my case was expunged. I am not guaranteeing the same outcome but one thing I know is that Carl is the best you can hire.
