Jude Michael Koenig

Late on a Friday night I found myself in handcuffs and being charged with a DUI - even though I was not driving at the time the police arrived, there was definitely evidence I had been drinking in my car. That and failing a field sobriety test, I was pretty much f%^$ed. On Saturday morning when I ...was released from the 'drunk tank', I called a few friends to get advice and was given Jude's contact information. He called me back a few hours later that same day (I wasn't expecting a weekend call back!) and we spent about an hour going over the details of my horrific night. Jude was thoughtful, explained tons of legal details around my potential case in very plain language and best of all made me laugh despite how dreadful things seemed. It was obvious I needed him to go to bat for me in order to have the best outcome. Paperwork sent that same weekend and I retained him without hesitation. One of the BEST decisions ever!! Jude has worked with me over the course of 5 months to get me through both the DMV suspension hearing (we won! no license suspension!) and ultimately my criminal court case (we won again! my initial DUI charge was dropped to a drunken in public conviction!!!). In all of our communications via phone and email, Jude was consistently and extremely helpful, clear, and compassionate. This dude knows his way around the Tahoe court system, is extraordinarily well-organized and most importantly he's relentless in exploring every possible option. Plus, I've never worked with a lawyer I felt was genuinely on my side and so non-judgmental. Jude has helped me get my life back on track from what could have been an EXTREMELY expensive and drawn out legal process. Don't think about it, just hire this man and let him do what he does best.
