Thank you Aaron!

If you are here reading through these reviews, you have come to the right place! I know the feeling all too well. I was here back in September when I received my first DUI. Like everyone else I was trying to find the best lawyer, along with a review that was similar to my situation to see what their ...final outcome was. I knew it was a long shot, but it was the only thing that would calm me down. After I realized that I would not find a review similar to my situation, I figured Aaron must be doing something right with all these 5 star reviews and lengthy testimonials. I was passed out in my car on a two way street in Paradise Valley. The car was in park, but I was not pulled off to the side of the road. I woke up to the police knocking on my window, I was half asleep and did not know where I was, I was speaking gibberish and landed myself in jail after I refused the FST and PBT. I then refused to give my breath at the police station, which then required a warrant for my blood to be drawn. It wasn't until the MVD hearing in December, when we received the blood results from the arresting officer. I ended up having a BAC of .13 and knew that I would be charged with a regular DUI. When I first called Aaron and explained my situation, he told me flat out that I had a bad case... It wasn't what I wanted to hear, but I appreciated his honesty/bluntness. I had a trip planned to Europe later that month and I was freaking out that I was going to miss my trip due to court hearings and letters in the mail. Aaron assured me that I would be fine and that he would take care of all the paperwork and file any extensions if needed. All I had to do was show up to court twice, once for MVD and once for the State. I witnessed Aaron's attention to detail and professionalism when we showed up to the MVD hearing. I was amazed with his note taking when the officer was giving his side of the story. Then, Aaron fired off many questions in my defense and it made me feel very secure/comfortable. Like oh sh*t, this is what I paid for. Thank god! Aaron is the man. (All those thoughts went through my head as I was sitting there.) I also felt like I had the best lawyer when we were in the waiting room, there was another lawyer talking to Aaron and asking him questions about a law as if Aaron was the expert. Aaron is organized, punctual, straight forward, always prepared and seemed to be readily available, if he wasn't available he would literally get back to me as soon as he could. We butted heads a couple times, but I never took anything personal. I knew he was coming from a good place and trying to help me through this crappy situation. I thought Aaron could have responded/spoke to me in a different "tone" at times, but I recognized that he wasn't there to be my best friend or mommy me. He was there to protect me and help me get my life back to normal. I was honestly dreading writing this review, because I knew there was a lot to say. Its the least I could do for Aaron, he's an amazing attorney and I would highly recommend him. We attempted to get a reckless driving charge during the plea agreement, but we settled for no jail time. I was very excited knowing that I did not have to go serve the mandatory 1 day in jail. Aaron was able to get me credit for time served for the 4.5 hours that I was at the P.V. station. I knew a couple people who were recently in this same situation and I asked them about their lawyers, but I couldn't pass on Aaron after reading all of these solid reviews. Thank you Aaron!

Proficient, Honest and responsive

Since the moment that I met him . He explained to me my situation and what was the plan to resolve it. He always answered my calls when I didn't understand some information from the court. I didn't have to present on court until got the best solution from the judge. I highly recommend him. Thank A...aron for helping .

Breath of Fresh Air

Mr. Aaron Black was awesome! I was reffered to him by a family friend when I needed an attorney to fight my misdemeanor charge for allegedly violating an order of protection. I contacted Aaron the week before Christmas 2015 and sure enough I met with him the day after Christmas to review my case! I a...ppreciated that he was available and took time away from his family to assist and represent me! Throughout the process he was very professional, upbeat and personable! I explained my situation and he then explained all of my possible outcomes while assuring me he would get me the best deal considering all circumstances, but of course fighting for charges to be dropped/dismissed. All my questions were answered quickly and thoroughly. I especially loved that he would call before a court date to remind me of the date and time. My mind is on other important things like my children and newborn twins so a courtesy call meant so much and didn't go unnoticed. It's the little things that can count the most! Aaron certainly got me the results I was looking for! During my case I was denied a diversion from 3 different prosecutors. Aaron never gave up and finally negotiated a diversion plan. No misdemeanor, no probation, no jail time! I highly recommend Aaron Black to anyone who is needing a professional, straight forward, prompt, successful defense lawyer to fight their case! Your experience will be unmatched!

Other Lawyers call on Aaron Black with their DUI’s, Shouldn’t You?

When I was arrested for my second extreme DUI, I was facing a total of 120 day jail with 24 days served at tent city and 96 days of home arrest. Along with court fees in excess of 10k. I knew I needed a great lawyer fast. After talking with multiple lawyers, one lawyer told me if he got a DUI he woul...d call Aaron Black. That’s good enough for me! When I called Aaron he answered the phone right away and answered all my questions. Aaron is also very tech savvy with text messaging and picture messaging making communication with court documents very fast and easy. Aaron got the prosecutor to drop the my extreme DUI to a regular DUI and lowered the jail time to 50 days with only 10 days in tent city and 40 days of home arrest. Saving me lots of jail time and thousands of dollars in courts fees. I highly recommend Aaron Black for all your DUI related issues.

***** Excelent Attorney *****

Aaron was great. My case was fairly typical. I was stopped on Mill Ave and charged with an Extreme DUI (BAC .016 & .0163) on 2/13/16. Aaron was able to do several things for me. 1. He was able to get my DL suspension started on the 17th instead of waiting he full 15 days. My thought was I didn't ...have my vehicle I might as well start the mandatory 30 suspension as soon as possible since I couldn't get my vehicle back for 30 days. 2. Reduced from an extreme (anything .015 or more) to a regular DUI. This meant lower fines, less jail time & only 6 months with the interlock vs 12-18. 3. Wrapped up everything at the first court date so there was no need to come back for future dates. Aaron was able to negotiate the plea deal at the first date. I knew this was the best option so we agreed and were finished within 90 minutes at the first hearing. 4. Available for expert advise and opinion anytime! This in my opinion is the most important part of his services. I called him the morning after my arrest at 9:00 am. Keep in mind a few things here. I was arrested late on 2/13/16. That was a Saturday night. I called Aaron and left a message promptly at 9:00 am, Sunday 2/14/16 (Valentines Day!) Within 15 minutes Aaron called me back and spent 30 minutes asking some general and some specific questions. He laid out what to expect and a few options. All of this was before I had retained his services. After our conversation he laid out what his fee would be and I told him I would be in touch with my decision shortly. There was no pressure whatsoever. I don't think my case was very complex compared to others I have heard about but having Aaron who understands what to do saved me so much time and saved me from loss of productivity in my work life because I didn't worry about what I should be doing or worry about trying to understand what something meant or said on a form. I mean have you ever tried to read some of those court documents? It's like trying to understand martians! The stuff is written in a foreign language. But Aaron understood and made it very simple. He also knew some things that I never would have thought of like recommending I surrender for my 1 day of jail at 11:00 pm. In my situtaion my one day was calendar so 11:00 pm to 12:01 am meant I had fulfilled my court mandated "day" in jail. I was out by 9:30 am the next morning (nothing is fast in jail) and never actually went to the tents. In summary I would HIGHLY recommend Aaron. He was knowledgable, attentive, and fair priced. I heard people's stories as I went through this of paying twice as much in similar situtations with far less to show for it. The situtation is not pleasant at all but Aaron made it as easy and as painless as possible. If you are reading this and trying to decide what to do next STOP, call Aaron & talk it through. If you don't feel uncomfortable after you talk then hang up and go another direction but I am confident that you will feel as I did.
