2nd Dui dropped to a wet and reckless!

Mr. Blair is the best lawyer to have on your side if you get arrested for a DUI. He will walk you through everything you need to do, give you advice and will always have an honest response. In my particular case I was arrested for a DUI for the second time before I had reached ten years since my firs...t DUI. I was really worried and Mr. Blair was honest with me from the start to what the best outcome would be for me and the worst for me, but he advised me on everything I should do before my court date to make sure I got the best outcome. I cannot stress this enough you should listen and take his advice with action it really helps, he is trying to win for you. All in all he helped me reduce my 2nd dui to a wet and reckless! After the court date he kept up with my dmv hearing and kept me posted about everything. He truly is the best.

From the bottom of my heart.

I don't do reviews often, unless I feel like I either received the absolute worse treatment or the absolute best treatment. As a client of Mr. Blair, I'm happy to say that I received the absolute best treatment anyone charged with a DUI can ask for. I did what most of you who get released from an ...arrest for a DUI - searched online frantically for an attorney to receive the best possible outcome of my case. I remember going on my phone as soon as I received it when I was released from the "drunk tank" on a Sunday morning. I searched "DUI attorney" and was bombarded with an endless list of names. On this website that helps you find local attorneys, I put down my information and waited for someone, anyone, to contact me. A total of four attorneys contacted me within the hour, Mr. Blair being one of them. What made him stand out was not only his professionalism, the time he has been dealing with cases like these, and the fact that his practice is DUI and DUI only, but also his ambition to get to work right away and help me. As soon as I retained him, Mr. Blair sent me an e-mail about what I should do to get a head start on the process. His e-mails are lengthy for a reason - he answers majority of the questions that may be running through your mind. So break them down paragraph by paragraph because it’ll help avoid any confusion. Taking the advice from other reviewers to follow his instructions, I did just that and I’m glad I did. I could not make it to my original court date due to school, so Mr. Blair represented me and was able to reschedule it, thankfully. Before my rescheduled court date, I felt prepared because Mr. Blair e-mailed me a couple of days before with a deal he had already made with the district attorney. With the details of my report, it is an absolute miracle that he got my charge reduced to a wet and reckless. This makes a huge difference in my future career and I couldn’t be more grateful, thankful, appreciative, relieved, and extremely happy with the work he put in behind the scenes. As for my driver’s license, Mr. Blair was able to contact the DMV for me before the mandated 10 days after the arrest. Information about my license is still pending, but I have faith in Mr. Blair for providing me the best possible results! I’ve expressed that driving is my life – picking up/dropping off kids, and driving for my job, and he’s done anything and everything to keep my license with the same privileges. I will come back and update more on this. Thankfully, I went to the DMV and renewed my California ID, which he also recommended, in the mean time for identification purposes. Mr. Blair reduced my anxiety by a lot, a lot, a lot!! He has become a huge part of my journey to the success of my career and I will forever cherish that. It is my first “criminal” offense, first DUI charge, first arrest, first time being in custody, and first for anything to go on my record. I know that it’s a mistake I will NOT make again. IF that were to ever happen (God forbid), I WILL contact Mr. Blair. Please don’t hesitate to retain him, the decision to WILL turn your life around in the most beneficial way possible.

Having Mark around will make your life a lot easier

It was actually my first time being arrested and as you can imagine I was pretty shaken up. I hired Mark about a week later and he immediately made me feel more confident. He assured me that he would handle the courts and the DMV and that he did. For starters he sent me several very informative email...s on how we were going to proceed with my case and just about everything that I needed to be done. He definitely helped take the pressure off me and as a result I was able to go about my daily life. Thanks to Mark I was able to get the charge reduced to a "wet reckless". This was a significantly better outcome than I ever expected and I definitely could not have gotten the same result with a less experienced attorney.

Mark is outstanding.

I was very concerned after receiving my second DUI, Mark called me directly, walked me through every step in the process and followed up with detailed instructions to get the best possible outcome. One the day of my arraignment he was there to great me and coached me through every part of the hearing.... Mark has relationships with the right people and very knowledgable of the DUI process. Mark will follow up with you after your sentence to make sure all the steps are taken care of and gives full details on what to do to get your license back asap. I highly recommend Mark.

Very satisfied by Mark's results with my case

Mark did an excellent job defending me with my DUI. I particularly appreciated his way of communicating: straight forward, always very prompt to answer questions and trying to understand his client's priorities. Not only was he able to time the hard suspension of my license while I was on vacation (t...herefore not impacting my job), but he also successfully negotiated a reduced charge in court (wet-reckless). It was definitely worth being in the hands of a trusted professional during such a stressful period.
