Tony will get you through the DUI process

I needed help from a knowledgeable person who could educate me and give me all my options. I relied on these reviews as I didn't know any DUI attorneys and from our first telephone conversation through till our last meeting Tony and his partner attorney were most professional and responsive. He won m...y DOL hearing and reduced the DUI charge to Negligent driving 1st degree all the while allowing me to keep driving. I would definitely recommend Tony.

Client Review

I had a great experence with tony. I was charged with dui. after meeting with tony, he basicly took full control of my defense. He got the breath test thrown out and handled the meeting with the dol and I received no interuption of my driving privledges. The charge was reduced to a mistimenor tha...t did not even go on my driving record. If you are a busy person like me you will appreicate the fact that tony does all the work and keeps you informed. I would highly recomend tony.

Relationship: Co-worker

"Prior to Tony joining our firm, I had known him for many years and the fine work he continuously accomplished for his clients. When the opportunity arose to bring someone with his experience, knowledge and personality on board with us we didn't think twice. He has been the perfect fit at our firm. He understands the finer points of DUIs and everyone in the system, from prosecutors to judges to other defense attorneys, respects the work he does for his clients. He brings the unique trait to the table of having more experience than most partners in other firms. His clients love working with him because he is quite passionate and he takes his role very seriously. He has a very quiet confidence about him and he truly cares about each individual client and their unique concerns. He is able to use all of these attributes to obtain very favorable outcomes for his and our clients."
