Sarah Jay Schielke

Paying a fine, or paying an attorney is about weighing costs. Ms. Schielke was worth every penny. She advised me of the possible outcomes and worked to minimize the cost of those outcomes. The end result was $0 in fines. It was a great result! Ms. Schielke did an awesome job, and I'd recommend... her in a heartbeat to anyone with similar circumstances.

I was charged with a marijuana dui and refusal to submit a blood test. I hired Sarah for both charges, the marijuana dui charge was taken to trial where we won and the refusal charge was challenged and also was beat by Sarah. The first thing that comes to mind about her is "JUSTICE".... I talked to ...several lawyers before talking to Sarah, the other lawyers seemed to just want to take my money and plead my case out in court. This was not going to work for me because I was not guilty.... I was scared to death until I spoke to Sarah, she gave me a glimmer of hope with her vast knowledge of the laws and rights that pertained to my case. She never mislead me about what to expect, always letting me know how things were going to happen. The refusal was our first hurdle she overcame for me. I had no idea how bad a refusal, loss of license, interlock system for 2 years and on and on. Let me just say almost no one wins their refusal case its almost certain death. Sarah even told me we only stand a 1-15% chance of beating this. Guess what WE WON The marijuana dui was the next challenge. Sarah gathered all the evidence and planned her her next move. I was so impressed every step of the way. She won the jury trial completely destroying the DA in the case. She also made the cop in this case look like a complete moron on stand when she testified, in the cops own words "I dont want to testify she is going to make me look stupid up there" and she did. I would strongly recommend that you hire Sarah if you find yourself in a situation dealing with the law.

I retained Sarah for criminal defense needs as I was wrongly accused of assaulting a peace officer in a town in Larimer County. She supported me through several months of very stressful times and the threat of two years in County Jail if convicted of these charges. She supported my desires to have ...my day in court and have the facts presented to a jury while assuring me, without making guarantees, she had my back though the stakes were high. Sarah's understanding of the law, her ability to navigate the process, and her trial skills were what got me a "Not Guilty" verdict from a jury on all charges after only 15 minutes of deliberation. It helps that I didn't assault anyone, but I felt very confident I had great representation when deciding to turn down multiple "Bad Offers" from the DA with a piling on of additional charges and fight for my innocence. Thank you Sarah!

Sarah did an excellent job working on a DUI case that I was involved in. Her diligent hard work on the case, and her attention to detail allowed me to walk away with a fair deal. I would HIGHLY recommend Sarah to any friends or family involved in traffic violations. There was not a moment that I felt... uneasy about the way that my case was handled.
