Represented for DUI

While driving, I encountered what appeared to be an accident (with police cars and tow trucks having responded). A car was stopped as I approached (an officer was leaning near the window speaking with the driver). I stopped behind the car, and as the officer straightened up and the car continued, t...he officer made a couple of circular motions with his complete arm (motioning me through). As I slowly drove through, I could hear him shouting to stop, so I did. Turns out this was a DUI checkpoint and I, due to the officer's erroneous hand traffic signal, had just driven through. Unfortunately for me, I had consumed two 20 oz microbrews about an hour and a half earlier and I registered as over the limit (though the officer running the DUI test kept yelling at other officers to stop turning on their computers as it was causing interference with his tester). Ultimately, I was charged with DUI. I found Chip's site online, took a chance, and phoned his office. I set up a meeting and, after about 1/2 hour of discussing the events with him, elected to hire his firm. Chip was aware I did not really need access to an automobile for a couple of months and helped work out the 90 day driver's license suspension such that I had only about a week and a half to deal with getting around with no driver's license. He and his staff were very helpful in providing advice and guidance regarding what was necessary to regain my driving privileges. After the initial trial date being postponed due to a request for continuance from the D.A., I found the new date of the trial to be problematic and let Chip know. He assured me it would work out, but did inform me of a deal the D.A. had offered, but which Chip explained was a bad deal and no better than the worst we might expect from going to court. Chip let me know it was my decision, but recommended that I not take the deal and await the new trial date. I was a bit concerned as the trial date approached, but the day before the trial was to be held, Chip contacted me letting me know the D.A. had agreed to reduce the charge from DUI to Reckless Driving because the D.A. again had problems appearing in court at the appointed time. Chip's experience had led him to be aware the D.A. was overtaxed with cases and would be willing to make a reasonable deal if we were patient. I'm very glad I took that advice. There were constraints which had to be completed (Victim Impact Panel, Online DUI school and a fine) which Chip and his staff helped me know how to arrange. I would, without exception, recommend Chip to any of my friends if they found themselves in need of a quality attorney.

The best DUI attorney in Las Vegas

I was recommended to Mr. Siegel with the words you see in the title. Throughout this ordeal, he and his staff have been efficient, clear, cordial and simply got me a better deal than I would have received anywhere else. At the initial consultation, Mr. Siegel presented very clearly the issues we ...were facing and broke down every step in the process. This was very important to me, as this was my first (and presumably only) brush with law enforcement. Mr. Siegel takes steps that other attorneys don't bother with, and the agreed upon price did not change even as the case dragged on longer than expected. Per several acquaintances in similar circumstances, not every attorney sticks to their initial price. Mr. Siegel's office, particularly Connie, was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout. On the day of the final case, I saw that many of the other attorneys were considerably less prepared and informed about their clients. I would immediately recommend Mr. Siegel to anyone.

Excellent representation

Due to the nature of my job, I needed to get a copy of the arrest report fr a DUI citation. NHP was being slow and uncooperative. Mr. Siegel took matter into his hands and was able to retrieve the requested information in a timely manner. Additionally, all phone calls and emails were promptly retu...rned. All services (dmv, court, nhp, etc) were included in flat fee; wasn't nickeled and dimed. In the end, received a very favorable outcome. Thanks.

Best of all....

Chip Siegel looked after my case after he was referred by a personal friend. Chip explained the range of possible outcomes, leaving me with realistic expectations. Once the case went before the judge, it was presented clearly along with close collaboration with the district attorney. I am very sat...isfied with the outcome and feel confident to recommend Chip Siegel without hesitation.

Fantastic legal mind!

After consulting with several law firms in the Las Vegas NV area I chose to hire the Siegel law firm. I was told by the majority of lawyers I consulted with that this case was impossible to defend. I believe that most of the lawyers were intimidated by the specifics of the case. My choice of this fir...m was based on several different factors. Mr. Siegel was highly recommended by another lawyer that has represented my family for over 20 years and he is also a respected member of the NCDD. Upon first contact with Mr. Siegel I knew that he was the correct lawyer to handle the case. The decision to hire him was great. The competency of Mr. Siegel and his firm is remarkable. They are more than willing to go the distance to defend their clients. I was so very impressed with Mr. Siegel's demeanor in the courtroom. His command of the courtroom, vast knowledge, and confidence quickly prevailed and won the case. Mr. Siegel accepted my case knowing that it had a very slim possibility of winning and yet he still took on the challenge. I know that the states attorney never expected to be dominated in this fashion, but they obviously were not prepared for a defense lawyer like Mr. Siegel who attacked every possible aspect of the states case until we received a not guilty verdict. I would highly recommend contacting the Siegel law firm for all of your legal representation needs in NV. Thank you to you and your firm for everything!
