Neil P Halttunen

i had been facing a pretty hefty charge when i had first met neil i was very unsure of what the outcome would possibly be but over the last year neil was right by my side always working on getting me the best deal he can and in under a year he managed to get me the best deal possible and was able to ...keep me from having a record that would have made my life 10x harder

Neil was well versed in the trail proceedings. The case should not have gone to trail but Neil was well informed of the case and the status of the plaintiff, The district attorney was a joke and the Judge could not believe how many times he had to sustain testimonies from his line of questions. Neil ...(my Attorney) was surprised when the Judge quidded the case, without using the Juror's that had listened to the case. Neil proved that the district attorney, never had any evidence to prove his case.

I contacted Mr. Halttunen to represent me in a DUII. He got back to me right away and it was clear from the start that he’s very well versed in the law. He was realistic about my case but I had no doubt that he wouldn’t hesitate to go to trial if necessary. We won the DMW hearing and he negotiated a ...good diversion deal for me. I found his presence reassuring and I was well prepared when it came time to go to court. I would highly recommend him.

A friend of mine retained Mr. Neil Halttunen as his defense attorney for a legal matter pertaining to a court ordered violation. I supported my friend throughout the process and had an opportunity to meet with and work with Mr. Halttunen on multiple occasions. Mr. Halttunen demonstrated professiona...lism and legal insight as well as applicable skills that highlighted a high degree of emotional intelligence, such as compassion and patience. Mr. Halttunen was quick to communicate and provided valuable legal insight and realistic outcomes. The terms of the violation indicated a potential sentence of six months in jail. After numerous court hearings, Mr. Halttunen challenged the notion of punitive consequences that potentially could cause more emotional, mental and financial harm, and proposed community service as well as a significantly reduced jail sentence. The outcome of the sentencing was favorable to my friend and a tremendous amount of stress and anxiety was relieved due to Mr. Halttunen’s work in, and out, of the courtroom.
