I was charged with a DUI in October and knew I needed the best defense attorney in Tucson, so I spoke with a friend who retired after forty years as an officer with the Tucson Police Department and he said that Joseph St. Louis of the firm of Nesci and St. Louis is the most respected anywhere in Ariz...ona. I called Joe that day and within two days I had an appointment with him. During the few minutes I waited to see Joe at his office, I was able to peruse the many distinguished awards he has received along with his impressive academic history as well as his numerous admirable professional positions. From my first meeting with Joe, I knew I was in excellent hands in his handling my case. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous hearings were postponed by the court, but Joe, thorough his impeccable research and highly qualified support from related professionals in the field of DUI defense, was always fully prepared to defend me and he did. He kept me fully updated with my case through detailed emails and phone calls. Recently, Joe was able to get my DUI charge changed to a reckless driving plea and I am currently fulfilling the court-required steps to end my case. In addition, Joe St. Louis has and outstanding staff of highly-qualified legal experts, including Clarissa Goar, his legal assistant. I highly recommend Joe St. Louis to anyone who is in need of the finest DUI or criminal attorney anywhere.

Being pulled over for an alleged DUI offense is very serious. Having the BEST representation thereof is paramount. My search for representation, using numerous sources (to include an prominent Phoenix-based lawyer) all pointed to Joe St. Louis. Those sources were correct! Joe’s experience/knowled...ge of DUI law and a defendant’s rights thereof is second to none. Joe leaves no stone unturned; analyzing the incident/arrest criteria/relevant past case history in order to place the defendant (myself) in the best possible position. Using a deliberate and detailed approach , to include of all things involved with the incident, formidable motions (4 each) were presented to the court. And due to Joe’s exceptional experience and preparation, my case was eventually completely dismissed! I highly recommend Joe St. Louis to represent anyone that finds themselves in the unfortunate situation I experienced. -Former Client

Joe represented me for an Extreme DUI (.16+) case which lasted several years. The first thing he said to me was that he and his firm love to battle, and they were right! For a case that lasted almost four years, Joe and his team stood by my side the entire time and spent hundreds of hours litigating ...my case. Other lawyers might advise against going to trial, but the courtroom is where Mr. St Louis thrives. Put him in front of a judge and jury and you will clearly see why he is the best. Despite all the state's evidence, he expertly dissected their case and persuaded the jury to return not-guilty verdicts on all counts! His staff is incredibly knowledgeable and always available if you have questions about your case. Don't take your chances with another attorney - hire Mr. St Louis and know you will be taken care of.

I found myself in a regrettable situation -- one which I will NEVER repeat -- charged with DUI. Though it seemed the evidence was overwhelmingly against me, Mr. St. Louis took the case and fought valiantly on multiple fronts. He clearly has a firm understanding of the law and uses it wisely. In co...urt, he was always professional, astute, courteous, and (in my opinion) very well-liked throughout the system, including judges on down. Without reservation, I highly recommend Joe St. Louis!

Joe represented my 21 year old daughter in the fight of her life against the state of AZ, after she was the driver of a car that crashed down an embankment with a passenger on-board. During the course of the year-long defense that followed, Joe's knowledge of the law, and of the specific people repre...senting the prosecution, proved valuable beyond words. What at 1st seemed like an inevitable guilty verdict, eventually resulted in the dismissal of the case by the judge. Joe's preparation, relentlessness, and savvy demeanor during the evidentary hearing, all contributed to a result beyond our wildest expectations. Anyone finding themselves in the unfortunate position of requiring legal defense for a DUI charge would be well served (and worth every penny) to engage the services of Mr. St. Louis. Our daughter can now get on with the life she deserves thanks to Joe and his team.
