Paul R. Wolfe, Esq

When we contacted several lawyers in Carson City; to no avail, we left a message on Lawyers.com and Paul Wolfe called us back within a ½ hour. He was very professional and helped us to understand the circumstances we were facing. His fee was half of what the Carson City Lawyers were charging. The cha...rges were a misdemeanor, but the DA’s office was prosecuting it under a felony. His confident yet comfortable, at ease demeanor alleviated our anxiety over the change of charges. Five + months later we were charged with the original misdemeanor. We will recommend Paul Wolfe, Esq. to anyone who needs an excellent first-rate criminal lawyer.

Call Paul first!

Before I hired Mr. Wolfe I was told by other attorneys that I would have to serve a mandatory 30 days in jail or 60 days of house arrest and that nothing could be done about it because it was mandated by law. I was not satisfied with their answers and continued to contact various attorneys. Ultima...tely, I spoke with Mr. Wolfe and after only 10 minutes he informed me of the police officer’s mistake and told me it was a bad arrest. He knew this based on his former experience as a police officer. I immediately hired him and he did exactly as he said he would and ultimately convinced the prosecutor to dismiss the charges against me. If not for Mr. Wolfe’s knowledge and experience I would have listened to some of the other attorneys and served 30 days in jail. Mr. Wolfe did an absolutely outstanding job and got me a result that other attorneys couldn’t. If you are looking for excellent criminal defense then don’t do what I did and waste time calling other attorneys...call Paul first.

Outstanding

Paul did an outstanding job representing me in my DUI case. He had the charges reduced to a Reckless Driving. I was quite satisfied with his representation and I would recommend him highly to anybody needing a criminal defense lawyer.

Amazing!

Mr. Wolfe is wonderful! I highly recommend him. I obtained him earlier this year to represent my boyfriend who was incarcerated (due to another charge). He had an active warrant which was preventing him from an early release. Paul settled it, and we got the exact outcome we were hoping for. He kept i...n contact with me the entire time, and any questions we had were answered the same day. His prices were very reasonable, and the lowest compared to any other attorney I spoke with. If you are looking for someone who cares about your case and getting you the outcome you are looking for, then this is your guy!

Absolutely Awesome!

I was arrested and I was facing a mandatory prison sentence if convicted. The prosecutor was playing hard ball with my case because of the politics involved with the nature of the offense. Paul defended me aggressively and did not stop until I was assured no prison time. I am truly grateful to hi...m for keeping me out of prison. It could not have worked out any better...go with Paul and you won't be disappointed!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
