Turned my DUI into a reckless driving charge.

Charles Fife was referred to me by a good friend. He has help 3 different acquaintances with serious traffic issues and had positive results. I first hired him for a speeding 25 over/unsafe lane change charge (like 12 point ticket) I missed the court date and got a default judgment. I filled out som...e form to see the DA in order to cop a plea and was turned down. I hired Fife and soon after the case was dismissed. In July 2010 I was stopped for DUI. I called Fife asap to consult. I was facing guaranteed jail time, hefty fines, alcohol classes (tons), no license for 2 years and interlock for a year. Fife took the case to trial and with absolutely nothing in my favor he argued my case. The jury was hung which means they couldn’t all decide “beyond a reasonable doubt” that I was guilty of DUI or DWAI so we had to have a new trial.(at absolutely no additional cost to me, per his fee agreement) Before the new trial the DA offered me a reckless driving and completely dropped any alcohol related offense. I now have his number on speed dial and I tell everyone I can think of my account.

Charles Fife

I have known Charles L. Fife for 2 years now. Unfortunately, I required his personal expertise as an attorney earlier this year. I was very relieved when Mr. Fife agreed to take my case. Mr. Fife was an exemplar attorney who managed to have the DA’s office dismiss a felony crime I had been accused... of. Mr. Fife was continuously kind, understanding, patient, and always happy to explain the legal process to me as we walked through it together. I couldn’t have been more please with the professional results and treatment I received from Mr. Fife’s office. If you are looking for an attorney who is passionate about your civil liberties and rights, Mr. Fife will not disappoint.

DUI Attorney

Charlie Fife represented me in a non-driving DUI charge in Oct. 2011. Although we could have taken a few different angles in this case, Charlie's penchant toward absolute honesty truly paid off. Because the DA was unwilling to offer any reasonable plea bargain, we chose to take the case to a jury tri...al and let the people decide what's right. To be honest I really didn't think we had a strong case. Although I was not driving and had no intention to, the DA and 2 police officers were adamant that because I had control of the vehicle it constituted DUI. Charley was open and honest with the jury and they trusted him as well as me when I testified. Verdict came back: Not guilty.

I have used Charlie Fife and his firm twice in the past 5 years. I have found him to be ethical, trustworthy and honest with me at all times. He took both cases seriously. In both cases the situation was very serious. In my opinion he is a miracle worker. Thank goodness for all the hard work and r...esearch he did on my behalf. I would recommend him to anyone needing a great attorney. He was able to keep me out of jail on both charges.

Charles Fife is Outstanding

Charles Fife is the best, case closed! My case was complex and I think Mr. Fife enjoyed the challenge. He worked on it for 6 years without asking for another penny and the result for me was a dismissal. Mr. Fife’s quick thinking in court and tenacity throughout this process was the difference b...etween a record and a fresh start. If you want the best possible outcome then you need the best attorney on your side, you cannot do better than Charles Fife.
