Posted by Nick G | August 26, 2016 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Impressive Attorney

I am a disabled veteran with a rough past involving alcohol and other issues. I skipped out on my probation for 2nd offense DWI and left the state for five years. I was referred to Steve by a long time friend and I explained my wanted status to him. Steve was able to get the conditions on my bond red...uced to a simple deposit which would serve as part of Steve's retainer. He took me for a walk through at the bonding desk and I didn't even get handcuffed. I expected to do time and pay stiff penalties. Steve reviewed my past, my recent achievements, and current status with me. We exchanged emails regularly and he responded to all of them. THAT is uncommon for attorneys; heck many don't even return phone calls. I felt very well informed, represented, and could tell right away that Steve is VERY sharp in and around the Courthouse. He got me the most outstanding outcome I could dream and one that I did not even know was possible. He spoke with probation and got me discharged (released) with no jail, no fines, no penalties, and no conditions. It happened less than an hour ago and what started as a nerve-racking court appearance and has changed into a celebration! Steve was my second attorney I hired for this same situation and the first one told me: "There is no simple fix for this." I hired Steve quickly after and that turned out to be a very wise decision. I could not have asked for a better outcome. Highly impressed and I highly recommend.
