Very Informative and Did Not Charge Me

Alec assisted me with gratitude and intuition. He listed my available options for my case and provided step by step with what I should do to help me in my situation. The law office was very professional as was Alec, I thank him for his aid and not charging me. Overall excellent attorney and highly re...commend seeing him for law troubles.

I got an honest answer over the phone

Spoke to Alec over the phone about a speeding ticket. He spoke honestly about the best options in my case. I felt like he was sincerely trying to help me and not just get an easy client.

Highly persistent for dismissal the case

Alec was extremely personable, easy to work with, very informative on the legal process, and made me feel like he was going to take care of everything. He always had time to answer my phone calls and has always promptly replied to my emails. Alec was always very patient with any questions I had and s...eemed to always know all the answers. He had my case in the Pima County Court dismissed after being persistent on getting that result for months, and he practically saved me. I couldn't be happier with his services and highly recommend that anybody considering a lawyer in the Tucson area give Alec a call.

Competent, Compassionate and Correct

I was recommend to Alec from a friend, From the very beginning he was very realistic and honest about the situation. He had a clear foresight into how thinsg were going to go with the courts. He had a plan on my defense and executed it. He understood the implications of this on my life and fought to... help me the whole time. I can't thank him enough.

"I have known Mr. Hanus for more than a decade and a half. During that time, Mr. Hanus has helped many of my civil clients, my friends, and my associates to successfully resolve criminal and traffic issues that they have encountered. I know from personal observation and experience that Mr. Hanus is extremely skilled in the courtroom both as a trial attorney and as a negotiator with the State's prosecutors. Based on comments made to me by his clients, by other attorneys, and by court employees, I know that Mr. Hanus is very well thought of by all of the people that he encounters. There are very few other attorneys in southern Arizona that I would trust with a criminal or traffic matter in the same manner that I would trust Mr. Hanus."
