Posted by Kristen | October 22, 2015 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

My experience w/ this law firm's defense of my DWI charge.

All the Attorneys and the team in this law firm are literally unparalleled in their DWI defense practice!! They ARE the most knowledgeable leave no stone unturned worker bees that you want working for you! Believe me, my case was as complicated as it gets. Mr. Bolton was impeccably fluid during... my trial as things came up & changed. he never stopped fighting for me in my defense, ending an 8 hour trial winning a not guilty verdict !! They are responsive to your calls, questions or concerns within the day you call.... Which means loads as they know this charge affects the rest of your life. They feel like a near & dear loved one that will never leave your side! Thank you Mr. McConathy, Mr. Bolton and Christina for all of your patients & devotion to my case! You're simply the best, Kristen

Professional and Knowledgeable

Mr. McConathy and Mr. Bolton helped me through a case that lasted about 6 months. They're extremely knowledgeable when it comes to these cases and what to expect based on the location of offense (this is a very good thing). They were both very professional and I always got a sense of their passion fo...r their jobs. They helped me get a pretty good deal. I appreciated that they were direct with me and was upfront to help me make the best decisions. I also appreciated how things were explained from a legal perspective. Their office staff is awesome. Christina and Amanda were very professional, pleasant and very knowledgeable every single time I interacted with them whether it was in person, over the phone or email. I recommend this firm.

Received an excellent outcome on my DWI cases

When I was recently faced with multiple DWI cases, I wanted to be represented by the best Attorneys. I am qualified as a Physician and a hospital administration professional, and really wanted to protect my career, reputation and rights. After researching, I learned about the Law Offices of Richard C.... McConathy as being the top law firm in the region. I scheduled to meet with Attorneys Richard and Brian. From our discussion, I immediately knew that I wanted to be represented by them and hired their professional services. A couple of days back, they gave me the great news of achieving an excellent outcome on my cases. I feel very fortunate for making the right decision of selecting their Law Firm and thankful to them for taking on my cases. Soon as I had first walked into their office, I knew this was an extraordinary place. The offices at the firm are impressive, well appointed and very comfortable. The Law Offices' staff is very friendly and have been thorough all along in providing timely correspondence, clarifications and quick to arrange to meet with Richard and Brian. I am fully convinced that the Attorneys at the Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy have extensive experience, in-depth knowledge and solid negotiation skills to deliver excellence. I highly recommend their services.

Great legal defense

I've never had to use a criminal lawyer and was anxious about what was going to happen to me since I've never really been in trouble before. I interviewed with Richard and a few other law firms and finally hired this firm and was very pleased with the results. Brian got my case dismissed! CAn't say e...nough good things about this firm. Thanks again, Jennifer H.

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.
