charlie unger

When I was arrested for a DUI earlier this year, Charlie was one of my first calls. He worked with me for almost a year to resolve my case, and reduced it to the lowest possible charges he could. The experience was traumatic and filled with personal embarrassment, but Charlie always made me feel both... supported and understood. He has worked in the industry for many years, which is obvious by his knowledge of laws, judges, insurers, and other attorneys. I don't plan on getting in trouble with the law again, but if I ever do, Charlie will be my first call. If you are in the market for a good lawyer, look no further than Charlie.

I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and I was charged with domestic violence. My girlfriend and I were perfectly fine and unfortunately a random person was trying to be a so called hero by getting involved. I went to Mr. Unger and I was extremely pleased what I was hearing from him and how h...e would help me the first time I met him. Throughout the case he was more than cooperative and answered to any questions via email or phone call instantly. In these cases, they are always hard to win and almost impossible, but when the da wanted to charge me with the crime and sentence me to a few months in jail I was worried. Mr. Unger being the best attorney there is, got months in jail reduced to ZERO DAYS, and had to just complete classes and a little over a dozen days of community labor. The best outcome that could have happened did happen, and it is all to Mr. Charlie Unger. Use him for representation, YOU WONT REGRET IT.

I was arrested for a first time DUI with no prior convictions or arrests on my record. After delaying my court day for over a year, Charlie got my conviction slightly reduced than a full-blown DUI (which didn't make a difference since both are misdemeanors) Charlie charged me over $7,000 (which came... out of my retirement) not including the surprise fees: 1) $1,000 for a specialist breath analyzer (showed up 45 minutes late to an administrative hearing, and 2) numerous fees for copies, messenger service, billing, etc. When I would call Charlie to follow up on my case--he didn't remember me or my name (he would ask who are you and even after stating my name would ask me to explain)---he often got angry that I called and would yell and hang up the phone. Charlie tried to get more money out of me by referring me to one of his friends for therapy--I was a total emotional wreck for many years after the arrest, not to mention it was hard to find employment. Ask to see Charlie's office before you hire him---you will know exactly what you are getting when you see his office---an absolutely disaster with piles of paper and crap strewn about from wall to wall--beyond sanity, beyond packrat conditions. Charlie wants your $$$ and does not care bout your fate--this guy isn't tracking on cases--you will know this once you see his office. Stay away from this person who seems understanding but is really a nasty greedy troll. I lived for years (and really the impact is for life) with the impact of what many other attorneys told me later would have been dismissed if Charlie had paid attention to my case--as I didn't go to court until over a year after arrest based on Charlie's worthless advice--it only delayed conviction and time on my record. You will not get the value for what you pay from this guy.

If you want to see a great mind at work, watch Charlie do his thing in court. He gets it done in a calm and cool manner. He helped us keep a sense of humor at a very difficult time. He has the patience of a saint, which came in handy dealing with my daughter. He kept us informed all the time abou...t every little issue. He's easy to talk with, kind, supportive, always hopeful, and extremely smart! He worked out the finances with my daughter, was extremely fair. I hope he doesn't run the next time he sees her coming, because I can't imagine going anywhere else. And I say that with some experience behind me, unfortunately.

5.0 Stars Posted by a very satisfied client June 20, 2016 I made a poor decision this past January by driving under the influence and was arrested. I nearly followed with a worse decision in not retaining an attorney. I researched the positives and negatives of getting a lawyer for your first ...DUI and made a decision that I didn’t want to make an expensive mistake into an even more expensive disaster after reading some of the reviews of clients and their warnings of some other DUI defense attorneys and their cases. Fortunately I listened to my insurance agent who repeatedly told me that he believed I was making a mistake by not seeking legal counsel. My wife and I happen to be friends with an attorney and his family who are friends of other attorneys who when we asked for help, highly recommended Charles “Charlie” Unger. My wife and I decided to retain his services after his free consultation. We both felt very comfortable speaking with him, he seemed very down to earth. He’s very knowledgeable with DUI cases and mentioned he has been successful in reducing DUI charges and has been involved in many high profile cases. He told me due to my lower BAC level and the other circumstances of my case a reduction would be probable and a further reduction in charges could be possible. Mr. Unger made it possible to obtain certain documents and records that allowed me to concentrate on work at a very troubling time in my life and I only needed to appear once in court. Long story short he knocked it out of the park! He did exactly what he said he was going to do for the retainer he originally charged. When renewing my insurance my insurance agent said “you don’t know how lucky you are and how much money on premiums you’re going to save”. This was only one of the many benefits these reductions helped in my case. Charlie Unger came highly recommended to us and I would highly recommend Mr. Unger and his partners to anyone looking for an attorney that will do what he says he’ll do.
