Serious Traffic violation

I got a very bad Traffic violation Mr. Christian guided defended me , And still looking out for me after my case by guided me throughout all the process, it is very easy to communicate with him. Very patient not like other lawyers they just wanna get your money. Mr. Christian really wants to help you..., By getting involved in your case.

Speeding

I Received a Speeding ticket going 67 mph in a 45 mph zone. Attorney Christian Schwaner went to court for me & was able to reduce my speeding ticket from 6 points to 0! I was required to take a driving class that was excellent. I did not have to go to court once.

I have my freedom & thank you Mr. Schwaner.

Just when all seemed to have been put behind me. In my mail box appeared to be a letter of revocation for my probation. Clearly something without a doubt that I was certain would be complicated. That's when I immediately called C.Schwaner. With his help filing motion and such. It was all cleared... up. Certainly without his expertise, I would of been put behind bars. My family and I are very thankful Mr. Scwaner.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
