Charlie Saved My Life

Charlie was professional, tough, and exacting. He was there when I needed him most. Willing to take the biggest challenges, Charlie presented my case in a humanistic manner. Well knowing of the legal system, Charlie fought to retain my freedom and restore my rights. I would hire him again in a secon...d, but hopefully I will never need him again!

Incredible Legal Advocate in the Criminal Law Arena

Unfortunately, I have needed Charlie Naegle's legal assistance many times. Fortunately, not for myself, but for friends and family. Charlie is a top notch and quality attorney. Being an attorney, I am somewhat familiar with what clients like from their attorney. I am no different. They want to fee...l like their attorney really does have a vested interest in their specific case. They want to be able to rely on an attorney who will keep them informed and will get back with them as quickly as possible after leaving a message. They want an attorney who they know will represent them professionally and who will get aggressive when warranted. Charlie does all of the above and much more. He kept me informed as the cases progressed. I never had a difficult time reaching him and he was always very prompt in returning my calls when I did have to leave a message. He is very knowledgeable about Arizona law. His client's are people/individuals to him, rather than just some case number which is too common with many attorneys. Facing criminal charges can be a very serious and anxious time in a person's life. Charlie clearly understands that and does everything possible to help his clients be less stressful and less anxious. He cares about his clients, but more importantly, he makes it very clear to his clients that they know he cares about them and is willing to work hard for them to achieve the best outcome. Knowing that brought me and those who he was representing on my referral, great comfort and peace. Luckily, I can state honestly that I have not personally ever needed the services of a criminal defense attorney. However, people very close to me, including family members, have. The client's I have referred have ALL been very pleased with every aspect of his representation. He obtained many great results. People who knew they were going to have to go to prison, ended up going for a much shorter period than expected. Others did not end up serving any jail time when it appeared they were going to. He goes out of his way for his clients and is willing and does go the extra mile. I guess the only other thing that I can say is that if I ever do need a criminal defense attorney, I would definitely retain Charlie Naegle. In a world where many professionals, including attorneys, seem to do the least they have to in order to "get by", it is refreshing and encouraging, knowing that there are attorneys like Charlie Naegle out there doing everything and anything possible to provide top quality legal representation to people in real need.

A Great Lawyer to have on your side.

Mr. Naegle is very knowledgeable of the law and helped my case get dismissed. He was always on time to the courthouse and any other meetings we had. Charlie Naegle answered all my questions promptly and with a great attitude. I have recommended Mr.Charlie Naegle to some of my friends and will recomme...nd him again and again.

I highly recommend having Charlie on your side.

At 17 years old I had gotten a DUI and had only two weeks until my court date. Right away we contacted Charlie and he was able To help. We met up with Charlie and he informed us as to how the case would go down. Since a certain situation happened in my case he wasn't sure if we would be able to compl...etely get it dropped but could at least get me the minimum charges. Months later I had another court date and Charlie was able to get my DUI dropped and I was only charged with an MIC. I highly recommend Charlie for your case. He is funny as well as very knowledgeable in his work . I can not thank Charlie enough for what he has done for me and how he has saved my family.

Glad I had him as my lawyer!

I hired Charlie after getting a Felony 6 weapons charge. I called his office as well as 5 other lawyers and after setting up consultations with the latter 5 I received a call back from Charlie later that day as I received his V.M. during my initial call. Truth is, I completely forgot about my call to... him. He called me back and we discussed briefly my charges and that I had interviews set up already for the following day. However,after speaking with him, he was the only one that explained how the process will work starting with my initial appearance in court. The other 5 had not. I then went on to this site and reviewed each of the lawyers and was sold on Charlie as my lawyer to represent me. Best decision I made,let's face it,hiring and retaining a lawyer is a crapshoot comparable to finding a doctor. The prosecution played hardball throughout the process and Charlie reassured me that delaying judgement until he could get the charges reduced was in my best interest even though I just wanted to get this over with. The outcome was that the Felony 6 "Dangerous designation" was reduced to an "Undesignated Felony,non-dangerous and non repetitive" . The prosecution never gave up trying for maximum penalization up to the last hearing. Neither did Charlie- I received a much lesser time on probation,minimal requirements during the probation and basically the prosecutors got about 1/3rd of the the penalties that they wanted attached to the terms of probation. I owe all this to the Lord who guided me to Charlie and let him do the rest. Charlie is as advertised,will fight hard for you during your troubled time and doesn't let up. Hopefully I won't be in need of his services except to get the charges reduced to a misdemeanor and eventually set aside and he assured me he will be there for me when that time occurs. Very confident,well respected by his peers as well as his adversaries as I witnessed first hand his interaction with all court personal. Charlie Naegle is one of the top defense attorneys practicing law in the State of Arizona and I fully endorse him to anyone in need of a great lawyer who fights for his clients rights and their defense against the charges against them. Thank you Charlie!!
