Best Lawyer

Fred is the best lawyer, honest, hard worker, and generous. He put on a smart defense plan for my case and was able to get it dismissed in just a few months. He is attentive and responsive, keeps you updated along the way. Definetily recommend him to anyone seeking legal help. You will be in good han...ds.

Posted by anonymous | June 06, 2019 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Thanks Fred!

Fred did a great job handling my DWI case. Despite creating a very tough case for myself, because of Fred's hard work and professionalism, I still ended up with no DWI charge on my record and didn't even have my license suspended. I was able to get into a PTI program (I wasn't eligible initially but ...with Fred's help was able to get into the program anyway). All this at a reasonable price point. If you need a good lawyer who is respected in the court, will patiently answer any questions you have, and will do a great job on your case, Fred is your guy.

Attorney Defense

Mr. Dahr is an extremely competent attorney. He was hired because of his stellar reputation and reviews. I could not have been more pleased with his work effort and knowledge. He was able to get a wrongful case dismissed! Not only did he work hard on my behalf, but he was informative and communicat...ed with me during the entire process.

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.
