Mr Anderski is a committed,dedicated Lawyer who pays attention to detail
I hired Mr Anderski for an Assault and Terroristic threat case.This case lasted for over a year and a half. My wife has made up a story that i assaulted her and threathened her with a Gun.I was so worried for my career. words cannot explain the emmotion pain i went through during this time span but Mr Anderski's resilience and sacrifice was fruitful at trail. Prior to trail he fought so that i shouldn't go to jail. At one point i was wearing and ankle monitor .He worked hard to take off the ankle monitor. At trail i had three counts which was worrying because if found guilty in one of the counts ,it doesn't make any big difference if found not guilty in two. Mr Anderski's experience as a law enforcement officer/Detective showed at trail because he was so knowledgeable and confident.I knew at one point i will be aquitted of all charges based on his outstanding performance-He blew away the prosecutor. He stayed with me all day long while we waited for the Jury verdict on day three. The verdict said i was NOT GUILTY on all three counts. If i'm walking free today ,it is thanks to this man. I will forever be greatful. I highly recommend this outstanding lawyer.
I was impressed with his grasp of family law. He represented me with skill. He works in your best interest. He is available evenings and weekends. I would highly recommend this lawyer! I have hired several, and he far surpassed any of the others. He has experience in law enforcement, and he brings that knowledge to your advantage.
Providing a vigorous defense in all felony and misdemeanor level offenses and revocation motions. Representation in expunctions, non-disclosures, and motions for early termination from probation.
I put my 22 years of law enforcement experience to work for you. I've investigated hundreds of DWI cases as a police officer. I will find the weaknesses in the State's case and use them to your advantage.
Standard divorce and custody issues at a reasonable rate.

Efficient and Experienced Attorney
Mr. Andreski was very kind and informative throughout the process of my case. He was nothing but clear and fair about his pricing and how the process was going to work. He got my charges reduced and soon I will be able to have a fully clear record thanks to him. I cannot thank him enough for his help and patience working with me! I will definitely be recommending him to anyone and everyone.

DWI
I was stopped for speeding but the situation turned into a DWI quickly. I was arrested and jailed on that eventful night. Mr. Andreski took a strong interest in my case including my ideas and opinions. I did not want to settle and he supported me 100%. He was extremely prepared for court, he was professional yet firm with the prosecutions witness. I would use him again and strongly recommend him to anyone that needs a good defense attorney.

Hardworking, patient, informative, caring, and great at what he does-defending people! HIGHLY RECOMMEND
I hired Donnie for a misdemeanor theft case. It was a one time mistake, one I regret deeply. I could not express that enough to Donnie, which he believed. Donnie, along with the rest of the staff at the Law Office of Shane Phelps, genuinely cared about my situation and made me feel like I was still a worthy person who simply made a bad decision. He was available to me at any time of the day, he would even take the time out of his personal life to respond to me on the weekends. The patience he demonstrated with me was absolutely incredible, especially seeing as though I was frequently contacting him in regards to the situation. He always knew how to calm me down. He provided me with realistic expectations and worked tirelessly at getting me the best deal possible. He is a former police officer, and I believe that experience, along with his lengthy experience as a lawyer, makes him the best at representing someone in need of representation. I am extremely satisfied with the results he achieved for me, and believe that he is not just one of the best lawyers out there, but THE best. I understand how scary it is to be in legal trouble, and the best thing you can do for yourself is hire Donnie Andreski as your lawyer. He’ll help you through it, and you’ll come out on the other side a better person.

Amazing Advocacy
Mr. Andreski represented my younger brother in a domestic violence / strangulation case in Bryan, Tx. He was very knowledgeable about the law and gathered all the information he needed to start the trial, he left no stone unturned. He was very thorough with all the witnesses that took the stand and also wrote several notes for himself to recall later in time if /or when needed. He remained confident, professional and calm the entire time. He proved an amazing defense case and made it very clear that my brother's actions were infact self-defense, no matter the size or weight of a person. He was able to get the Jurors to understand and place themselves in that situation, if it was them on trial. It also did not matter which angle The State argued, Mr. Andreski had enough evidence and arguments to cover them all. After hearing from both sides for 2 days and speaking with several professional witnesses and experts, he was able to get the truth to be told. It was clear to which side had crossed their T's and dotted their I's. My brother was found Not Guilty, free of any charges and cleared from the arrest made from this accusation. Mr. Andreski is a very exceptional lawyer, who remained confident in his work and arguments. He guided us the whole way and explained every step. Thank you again Mr. Andreski for giving my brother a peace of mind, his life back and a lesson to all in that courtroom to never judge a book by its cover.

Trial by jury
I was support for the defense and witnessed a trial that he defended for the charge of strangulation and impeding breath. Donnie was amazing through the entire 3 days. He used effective listening and investigative skills along with the support of the evidence to win the case. His closing argument was so effective, especially compared to the prosecutors, I became a bit emotional with the points he made. He is an excellent attorney and I absolutely recommend him.

Has clients interest at heart!--appointed or not!
Donnie was my father's appointed attorney in an unexpected DUI/DWI case. Mr. Andreski worked extremely hard for us, making every effort possible to get the best for my father. It's good to have an attorney that works hard when you pay them, but it is another thing see an appointed attorney work even harder on your behalf. I would recommend him to anyone.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the email I just sent Mr. Andreski after he gave me some advice I was asking for. I think it sums it all up pretty well:
"Thank you so much, Mr. Andreski. You have been an extreme help to my family. We were so blessed to have you as a guide in this unexpected case. You were a mentor, an advisor, and a teammate on my father's behalf. Although my father's situation was sad and difficult for everyone involved, we are undoubtedly confident that you had/have my dad's best interest at heart. It is encouraging to know that there are lawyers (and appointed attorneys) out there who genuinely care for their clients; not just the paycheck. I pray to God that this type of situation never happens to any of my friends or family again; but if it were to, I would definitely recommend your professional guidance to whomever needed it. Thank you again for giving us the honor to have you as an attorney!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wasn't even seeking for advice on Mr. Andreski's case! My question was for a case in Hardin County! And he still took time out of his day to respond with informative advice concerning the Hardin County case. This guy is the real deal; paid attorney or not. I am confident that he would treat every case with the same professional and genuine care that we received.
A little bit of a back story if you're still reading this long review: (This is not a bad review about the previous lawyer; I am just trying to expand on the comparison we experienced.) We were with a previous attorney whom my father was paying weekly. This past attorney (Rick Davis---avoid him) did not seem to care about my father's case although we were paying him the money he asked. We were never able to contact him, even after calling daily to ask the simple questions... like "so what is our plan?", "where do we need to go from here?", "what have we done so far", and eventually bluntly put "what are we paying you to do?". He stuck us with college students who had no idea what they were doing; I guess they had about the same amount of guidance from Mr. Davis that we received from him: NO GUIDANCE!
So after we realized that Mr. Davis as our lawyer was doing nothing but wasting $350 a week and leaving us stressed and lost, my father asked for an appointed attorney. Once we got Mr. Andreski's name, we decided to go see if we could meet him. We were in town (we live a few hours away from Brazos County) and asked Donnie's office staff if we would be able to meet him and give him our contact info. We were actually able to get in to talk with him in no-time. He sat down and talked with us even before he knew he was appointed to my father! We didn't have to have the awful experience that Mr. Davis's office gave us! Mr. Andreski treated us like family!
BACK TO THE POINT: Go in for a consultation and see for yourself! He is truly a genuine lawyer. I can say confidently that you will not be disappointed in his "services" or appointed "services"! If I could go back in time, I would have hired him in the first place!

Extremely Grateful
Mr. Andreski Many thanks for the wonderful communication and outstanding work on my behalf. I will forever be in your debt. It was very overwhelming and frankly a very scary experience. You were very helpful in explaining how the whole process works. Thank you again. I was truly blessed to have you as a lawyer.

Mr. Andreski saved me, an 18 year old from a Felony
I received a Tampering with evidence charge when I was 18, It was one of the most scary and hard events I had ever been in. While I was dealing with my charges that weren't at all necessary and I had been taken advantage of fully by the law. I thought my future was over, my first lawyer wasn't helping and I was facing 6 years probation. I found Mr. Andreski by luck and he helped me from the start and assured me he would do his best. After a long battle and several mistakes he found in my report, my case was dismissed! He is a wonderful and helpful lawyer who is very knowledgable about what he does! I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is facing legal trouble!

"Mr. Andreski was very helpful and knowledgable with my DWI case and helped in having my case dismissed "
I hired Mr. Andreski to handle my DWI 3rd or more case I received in Harden County. The arresting office handled my case very unprofessional. Mr. Andreski recognised all the mistakes and how poorly the arrest was. And got my case dismissed. I would highly recommend Mr. Andreski and his firm to represent anyone with legal matters.
