Glad I found Mack!!

Contacted Mack the beginning of 2020 - Best decision I could have made! He was professional, honest, reported back to me in a timely manner (always kept me well informed), advocated for me, was able to be reached when I had questions/needed to vent! With all my legal troubles, I felt so alone and te...rrified, YET confident because Mack was fighting for me as MY attorney. He was courteous and straight forward - and he cared about doing the best for me, knowing what was on the line. Hard worker and Affordable as well!! I would certainly recommend Mack to others - and I myself will be retaining his services again!

The best attorney for expungement & all criminal cases

Mr. Schaffer represented my wife for expunging her records and he was instrumental in his job. His quick responsiveness, pro-activeness, sense of accountability, eagerness to explain the minute details of the case & procedures and professionalism stand him out in the lot. He was able to get us the de...cision from the court within couple of months. I would certainly recommend him for any expungement & criminal cases.

very smooth process!

I hired Mr. Schaffer for his services based on a family member's recommendation. The whole process was very easy and painless, I was able to do it via phone and email, and Mr. Schaffer was very thorough, pleasant, and punctual. I would be happy to use him again and recommend his services.

My Appreciation

I was skeptical at first when I received a letter from Mr. Schaffer about his offer on helping me get my case expunged, but given much thought and consideration. I had decided to contact him to ask what I needed to know and what he was going to do to get my case expunged. Mr. Schaffer was very kind, ...straight-forward, and very reliable. He showed persistence, respect, honesty, compassion, and non-judgmental towards me and my case. Throughout the whole process, he constantly notifies me through e-mail about my case and how long it would take for the process to be done. I am truly grateful for the amount of time and effort he puts into my case along with his other clients. He was great, I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of getting their criminal record expunged. It is because of his hard work and dedication that I am able to move forward with my life. Thank you Mr. Schaffer for all you've done!

Professional Integrity

My husband and I contacted Mr. Mack Schaffer when our son made a bad decision and was charged with criminal trespassing. After contacting Mr, Schaffer, he was able to meet with us in a very timely manner. This allowed us to find out what our options were without having to wait and without as much wor...ry. We found Mr, Schaffer to be knowledgeable and trustworthy. He started working on our case immediately. He told and encouraged us to contact him at any time. Therefore, we were able to contact him when we needed an answer quickly. We emailed him several times, even on a weekend, and he emailed back at his earliest convenience, usually within the hour. We would highly recommend Mr. Mack Schaffer to assist anyone that is in need of his services. He was more than reasonable with his fees and was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Not only is Mr, Schaffer is an outstanding lawyer, he is also well respected and genuinely a good person. Again, we would highly recommend Mr. Mack Schaffer if someone is in need of his services.
