Disappointed he didn't fight harder

I retained Tyler Ayres after I got my one and only DUI in 2006. I did not have a prior record. He was very nice and informative. My blood alcohol level wasn't incredibly over the legal limit and he felt like he could get it pled down to a lesser charge. After going to court for almost a year, he fi...nally told me I should just plead guilty. I kind of felt like he gave up on me. I wish he would've continued to negotiate a better deal for me. Had I known I was just pleading guilty anyway, I would have saved myself $5k in attorneys fees. I wish I would've done my homework and looked into other attorneys before retaining Tyler.

2nd DUI Found a personable Lawyer who treated me with respect.

Unfortunately I have had some troubles in my past that have required a Lawyer & my past experiences were much like the stigma that Lawyers have earned themselves. Their reviews are nothing like the one I am going to leave today for my Lawyer, Tyler Ayres. Tyler Ayres is the one in ten thousand who is... actually trying to help you. Tyler helped me with a DUI charge which was actually my second DUI. I knew I had broken the law, could have hurt or killed someone behind the wheel. I felt like I was a piece of junk, a real screw up. The first thing Tyler did was treat me with respect even though I screwed up & felt like a screw up. He talked to me about getting the right kind of help, not just whatever the Court would order, but Tyler saw value in me & wanted me to see that same value. That was huge. Tyler did represent me & very well. He told the Judge the areas I am working on & where I was getting help. I received a greatly reduced fine & no jail time, on a second DUI, that is unheard of. I listened to many horror stories of what happens after a second DUI. If it was not for Tyler Ayres seeing the value in me, setting me on a path to recovery & self love & seeing the value in myself, I am sure the Judge would not have seen the value in me & I really could have been put through the ringers. The Judge could see I was on a good path & he was right, I have been sober & finding my self worth ever since. I never thought I would hear or especially say this is the same sentence... "I have found a Lawyer who is truly a good man" Tyler Ayres is a Great Lawyer & a very good guy! I have spoke with him a couple times since & given him updates of how well I am doing & just give him an update. Thank you Tyler, for seeing the value in me & helping me find it myself.

By far the best!

I hired Mr. Ayres about 5 years ago, and he has helped in every thing from expungment of felonies to common traffic issues. He is by far the best and most honest lawyer I have dealt with in the last 18 years. Now by the best I mean he WILL give your case everything he can for the most fair out come.... .and by honest I mean he WILL do what he says he will. If you are ever in need of someone you can trust when it comes to your FREEDOM Tyler is the man to call.
