Best DUI Defense

I got a DUI several months ago and my girlfriend went on line to research Attorneys. In doing so, she found 3 Attorneys and after speaking with them we settled on Aaron Black. We picked him based on the reviews and the fact that there were so many spread over a large amount of time. Then before e...ven hiring him, he gave me advice on contacting the Motor Vehicle Dept. about my license. None of the other Attorneys we spoke with mentioned it. It turns out, it was the best decision. Mr. Black kept me informed with each step of the case. He also returned each and every phone call, and answered all my questions. He was also willing to meet me on weekends to discuss my case so I didn’t have to take any time off work to meet with him during the week. He was quick to pass along information to me as he received it, i.e. witness recordings, police reports and statements from the police officers etc. Mr. Black was also very confident in dealing with the prosecutor and was able to stand his ground and emphasize the facts of my case to the prosecutor which ultimately lead to the dismissal of my case. Basically made me feel like someone was on my side. After 3 months he helped me get my case dismissed without prejudice. Mr. Black is very knowledgably, easy to work with, and makes you feel extremely comfortable. I highly recommend Aaron Black for any DUI defense.

Aaron helped me out through a rough time in my life

Once I got charged I didn't know what to do. I looked online and found Aaron Black. I was very lucky to have chosen Aaron out of the hundreds of lawyers out there. Aaron walked me through all the steps and prepared me for what to expect. I would recommend Aaron to anyone caught in the same situation ...I was.

Hire him!

I was charged with a misdemeanor DUI in March 2013. After several meetings in court, waiting 7 months for BAC results, and the police officer not showing for the MVD hearing, my case was dismissed. But only temporarily. 10 days before the 1 year anniversary that would have let me off the hook entirel...y, they "found" my blood results and the case was reopened. Lucky me. Fortunately, I still had Aaron Black as my attorney. He answered all the questions I'd had a year before, again, as we started from scratch and my fears renewed. The judge was lenient and did not give me any additional jail time beyond the 2 hours I had served the night of the arrest, but Aaron was ready to argue on my behalf to try to get minimal jail time. After my final court hearing I was still reeling and felt overwhelmed with all I still had to do. Aaron was still there, even after that final court hearing, providing an itemized list to keep me on track. And then, as the letters of all the penalty requirements poured in, I was shocked to learn I'd received 46 hours of alcohol classes, which seemed rediculous for a first offense. I contacted Aaron and he agreed. He immediately contacted the the screening company on my behalf, and got them to correct a mistake they had made. In the end, I received only the minimum penalties. I don't know how anyone can navigate this confusing and terrifying process without the help of a great attorney, and I was lucky enough to choose one. I'd highly recommend Aaron to anyone going through this! He was available anytime to answer my questions, quick to respond, and aggressive in his pursuit for any information that would improve your chances of a successful outcome.

Your Search is Over

If you are in need of DUI/ Criminal defense attorney, your search is over. Having dealt with two other attorneys prior to hiring Aaron Black, I can tell you he is excellent. He handled two separate cases for my son and was able to get the most serious charge reduced significantly. Calls, E-mails, ...or messages were always responded to, usually within a few hours, which was a nice surprise. It is unusual to find an attorney that can give you excellent legal advise, fight for you, and give you such personalized service. Worth every penny.

Super Extreme DUI plead to an Extreme DUI

I was arrested for a Super Extreme DUI after a single vehicle accident, and I thank God no one was injured. I was processed and released, and preliminary BAC indicated was a .170. I later learned that my BAC was over .20 making it a Super Extreme DUI, I was facing enhanced jail term and hefty fines. ... I had never experienced anything like this before in my life. The following day was the worst, my car was wrecked and I was going to jail. Knowing that I could not properly defend myself in court, I began looking for an attorney. I found two attorneys that had very good reviews on the internet, and scheduled my first free consultation. I walked into a very plush looking office and saw three females I believed to be paralegals. My consultation was scheduled at a certain time and I arrived 15 minutes early. I walked into the conference room sat down and looked at the paperwork that was handed to me to fill out. Upon reading the documents, I noticed the free consultation was for 15 minutes, and anything over 15 minutes I would be charged 250.00 dollars. So I waited for the attorney, the appointment time came and went and I waited another 15 minutes, and still no attorney. So I changed my mind about this attorney and left the office. I called Attorney Aaron Black after leaving, and scheduled an appointment with him the following day. I walked into his office, and I felt as If I'd known him for a long time as he made my wife and I feel very comfortable. I sat down and discussed my case with Mr. Black and he assured me he would do everything he could to help me on my case, and that he did. Mr. Black was always available for my telephone calls and promptly returned my email or text messages. Mr. Black kept me informed on the case status, and was always well prepared in answering all of my questions via text and email. Mr. Black advised me to get the alcohol screening done, and I'm glad I did as many others had their screening done after their time in jail. Mr. Black was able to drop the Super Extreme DUI to a Extreme DUI, saving me jail time and court fines. I feel that Mr. Black not only provided me with outstanding and professional service, and feel that I've gained a friend. So if you ever need a professional and competent criminal Attorney hire Aaron Black, he's the best... My court case is now over, and Mr. Black asked me to contact him if I had any other issues or questions. He's assisted me with MVD, and told me he would continue to answer any questions I may have and would continue to assist me with MVD. Mr. Black has gone the extra mile for me. Thank you Aaron Black....
