Best lawyer in Tucson!

Alec is amazing! He helped me, kept me informed, and was super nice! He made such a stressful situation I was in so much easier and lifted so much weight off my shoulders. Thanks Alec!

Excellent lawyer and will work hard for your case

I asked Alec Hanus to review my charges for reckless driving and criminal speeding of 110 in a 75. After talking with Alec, I decided to hire him in which he walked me through every step of the legal process and answered any and every question I had. It felt like he was working just for me even tho...ugh I knew he had many other clients at the time. I was very happy with the result that he was able to provide with his services. I would recommend Alec to anyone that is seeking legal services with traffic infractions.

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.

Outstanding legal services rendered by Mr. Alec Hanus!!!

Mr. Alec Hanus, Tucson, AZ rendered superb service for me from a distance. While traveling through Tucson, I was pulled over and received a citation that would require me to appear in court. I immediately began to search the internet for a lawyer who could represent me in that area. I consulted wi...th and hired Mr. Hanus and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. He and his staff were all always pleasant and available to address my concerns. In speaking with Mr. Hanus, he was able to put my mind at ease and reassure me that he would do everything in his power to ensure my case was handled properly. He did that and more! I've never even met him, but he was able to stand on his word and render services to me from afar. If you find yourself in a convoluted situation in the Tucson area, do yourself and your family a favor and consult with and hire Mr. Hanus. You won't be disappointed!

"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."
