Top Notch and professional

Honest, simple, direct and to the point. I called him for a consultation and thought for sure I had to hire a lawyer. He advised me how to take care of my problem myself and that did not need a lawyer. However, he still took the time to explain to me what I need to do. If I ever need an attorney in ...the future I will definately give Karl a call.

Criminal Ticket for Littering Dismissed

Karl Mueller is definitely the guy you want to hire as your attorney. I got a ticket for littering. Throwing an unlit cigarette butt on the road. Turns out this is a criminal offense with possible fine, community service, and jail time, plus stays on your record as a crime forever. I had talked in le...ngth with a different attorney who told me this was no big deal, it would be fine, and they should be able to get it reduced. I called Karl and chose him because he truly cared about this going on my record, the specifics of my case, and the things important to me, ( I am 50 years old with a clean record). He did not promise anything, he was honest, LOTS of experience, use to be a prosecutor, has a relationship with the courts, knows the judge and what can potentially work best for me. We spoke on the phone a few times and I trusted him with my case. The day before court he called me to say my case was completely dismissed. WOW!!! He really does work behind the scene. This was not luck, or just simple, that's not me. I choose my attorney wisely and he did his best for me as I believed he would. If you are reading this call him!!!! He answers his phone and returns calls. Best call you will make!!! If you smoke put a water bottle in your car for butts! THANKS KARL!!!

From Criminal Speeding to Civil Traffic

First, I really appreciate what Mr. Muller has done to my case. At first, I was received a ticket for Criminal Speeding. And that time I did not realize the seriousness of it and plead guilty immediately. However, then I know Criminal Speeding would leave a criminal record and I ask Mr. Muller to dea...l with my case. He first helped me to withdraw the "plead guilty" and appeal again. Although the process lasted a long time, the result is satisfactory. I quite recommend Mr. Muller to deal with the traffic case.

Reckless Driving Acquittal

I felt that Mr. Mueller faced a particularly strong arguments against the defendant in this case. Factors such as improperly restrained toddler, admitted criminal speed (twice the legal limit), high performance vehicle, etc. made defending this Reckless Driving charge in a jury trial very challenging.... Additionally, I felt that the prosecutor presented excellent arguments for conviction of the defendant. In his closing arguments for the defense, Mr. Mueller expertly dismantled the rationales put forth by the prosecution resulting in a not guilty verdict.

Excellent Response and Follow-up

Mr. Mueller assisted my teenage daughter with a difficult traffic ticket. He was able to thoroughly explain the possible outcomes and with his familiarity with the court was able to discuss a plea deal and explain the ramifications. He was very responsive any time that we had a question and always fo...llowed up on everything he said he would do. Although he could not guaranty a particular outcome, with his assistance we were able to make a deal that was acceptable to us and the court. I would definitely recommend Mr. Mueller for all of your needs.
