Glad I hired this guy

This is my go to go if anyone I know ever gets a dui for alcohol or drug's. He took care of my case swiftly, was punctual and compassion also competitive pricing helped me in hiring. Garrett was great all around and I have no regrets whatsoever in hiring him. Thanks Garrett!!

Top Notch Lawyer

Garret was amazing from the very beginning once I acquired for more information on the case by phone. He listened to my DUI for Drugs case and let me know he would be able to help. When I came into his office I saw how confident Garret was and knew he would be able to help be because of his intellige...nce on DUI's, passion to help others, and determination to get the problem solved. When I had question's he always followed up in a timely manner and made a major situation into something minor. If you're looking for a lawyer that will put all his time into making sure that the result leaves you satisfied call Garret. Thanks for keeping it real! -Kevin A

LOOK NO FURTHER...SERIOUSLY!!!

So here's the thing... In 2012, life hit me hard, started drinking a lot, and I got a DUI. I got a lawyer, he pushed back my case for 10 months which ultimately ran into my 2nd DUI. Fired that guy, got another lawyer and he did something weird with the courts and didn't send me my paperwork on time. ...I missed my sign-up dates for my DUI Program, got a warrant for both cases in 2 different cities. I spent the next 2 years hating life and living with warrants. Finally got another lawyer (lawyer #3), he dropped both warrants but didn't tell the courts about each other. I enrolled in a 18mo Program thinking I was satisfying both courts. Now here I am with 2 months left in my program, come to find out I have a $30,000 warrant because one court thinks I never signed up for a program. Fed up and stressing like crazy I just wasted 17mo, thinking the courts were gonna make me re-do the program or possibly send me to JAIL, I frantically searched for someone who knows what the hell they're doing. I went online searched and searched like I've done in the past but this time I came across Garret. Man if only I knew him 4 years ago. I talked to Garret for the first time and he was 'real' and spoke to me like a friend and with confidence. I laid out my situation and he told me can't promise anything (which is understandable) but he said he'll take care of it. I got Garret the info he needed and he and his associates went to bat for me and dropped the $30k warrant and the court put me on the same terms as the other court. So now I'm good to go! Because of Garret and his firm, I get to start 2017 off nice and new and I get to put my past 2 mistakes FINALLY behind me! DON'T LOOK ANY FUTHER, hire Garret, for real! I wasted so many years, borrowed so much money, and lost too many people in my life because of bogus lawyers. Garret and his team are legit! I have him on speed dial, (JUST IN CASE). Thanks again Garret!...

Above and beyond

My stress and anxiety were through the roof with my DUI case. After searching through and reaching out to a plethora of lawyers online, Mr. Garret Weinrieb was the FIRST to reapond and addressed my inquiries thoughouly and diligently. I came into his office and immedietly felt at ease speaking with h...im and hired him to handle my case. Best choice I could have made. Garret was always accessible through text, call, or email. Answered all my questions and handled my situation superbly. I paid for PEACE OF MIND with Garret on my side. I would full heartedly reccommend him to anyone who needs an honest lawyer. Thank you, Garret.

"Mr. Weinrieb is one of the most dedicated and hardworking attorneys I have ever had the privilege of working with. His trial skills are truly remarkable, as he supremely gifted in the courtroom. But he also works just as hard outside the courtroom as well, always going the extra mile for his clients. Mr. Weinrieb will never give up on a client's case, and where others may decide to throw in the towel, he will always find a way to advocate for his clients. Without any hesitation, I endorse Garret Weinrieb. He is a top defense attorney."
