Excellent Attorney!

Aaron black is sharp and highly efficient. He was very quick to reply to my e-mails, which was really reassuring. At our first meeting, I was impressed by how attentive and patient he was when I told him the injustice inflicted on me. I will always remember the fact that he took extensive notes and t...he way he did it, in part because my first divorce attorney whom I fired, did nothing comparable. The fact that the charge my soon-to-be ex pressed against me was the result of his chilling false allegations about an violent event he instigated and of his use of my nine year old daughter to conceal his violence and frame me does not make my case easy. Nor does it necessarily mean I was to be treated with justice. However, in retrospect, Aaron Black got me the deal, a pre plea diversion at a lightning speed. The reality is that within a month or so after my first meeting with Aaron in late February and my subsequent hiring of him, he got the above-noted deal. Prior to obtainment of the deal, Aaron succinctly pointed out the inconsistencies in a police report concerning my ex-to-be’s allegations and conveyed his intelligent professional opinions about the charge against me. That is to say, the charge against me does not make any sense and by implication should be dismissed without any conviction. I have already got the official order of dismissal. I believe it is his rational thinking and rich professional experiences as well as his compassion that helped me clear myself of false allegations. If you are looking for a highly capable and understanding attorney who will shield you from injustice, I strongly recommend you to work with Aaron Black!! Life becomes a lot easier and, in my opinion, will always get better with nice people around us!! Take care !

Excellent Service, Definitely Recommend

Was charged with a pretty high BAC count. If not for Aaron, would definitely have suffered severe consequences. Aaron, was able to bring down all the charges to the bare minimum allowed by state law, which let me continue on with my daily life without hindrance. Always available on phone or text, han...ds on approach and very understanding.

Look no further

I was arrested for a DUI and had absolutely no idea what to do, who to call, and how to react. I read review after review, ask around for some references, and was completely overwhelmed with the process - I had a few consultations and finally reached out to Aaron on a Saturday fully expecting to leav...e a message and hear back on Monday. Aaron called me back that day and spent an hour of his weekend talking me through the typical process, potential outcomes, getting familiar with my specific situation, and helping me to set expectations for how long the process would take, what his plan would be, and what my worst case situation would be. Needless to say, I was completely overwhelmed by the whole DUI situation, especially being that I am not a resident of AZ (Chicago, IL right here) and that only complicated my situation even further. Beyond preparing me for court, helping to set me up with counseling, Aaron constantly communicated with me throughout the whole process, fought for me, and was ultimately able to secure a significantly reduced charge / plea versus my original charges (Extreme DUI down to DUI in the Slightest). Aaron was fantastic throughout the entire process, and I cannot recommend him enough. He is persistent, dedicated, incredibly knowledgeable, sincere, and sympathetic. I hope and pray that once was enough, but if I were to ever be so unfortunate to find myself in this situation again, Aaron will be my first and only call.

Awesome attorney

Aaron really helped my case. He walked me through everything and was great at getting back to me questions I had throughout the process. And he really took to the time to go over all the evidence to help my case, specifically, he carefully reviewed the videos of my arrest and was able to argue my cas...e down from an extreme DUI to a regular DUI, which resulted in lower fines, less time with an interlock device, and I’m sure other thing I’m forgetting at the moment. Awesome attorney!

Great experience and smooth process!

I was charged with a DUI and like many of you, was freaking out. My husband found Aaron after scouring through countless reviews and testimonials. As a teacher, I needed to make sure I had the best representation to walk me through this process and assure me that my DUI would not impact my teaching c...ertification. Aaron was always so responsive and answered my phone calls and emails immediately even if they were in the middle of the night. After meeting with 5 attorneys, I chose Aaron because it was clear that this was his expertise and he did not guarantee that he would win my case. Instead, he focused on the facts and understood the best plan of action to get the minimum penalties. After many months, Aaron was able to keep me out of jail, pay the minimum fines, and I did not need to get SR-22 insurance!!! Aaron was truly my saving grace and made this process as painless as possible.
