Gregory Wayne Schwesinger

I can't say enough about how much I appreciate and how pleased I was that I chose Greg to take my case. I'm not just writing this review just because. I honestly want to share my experience so others who have been wrongfully accused of a crime have the best chance they can get at beating there charge...s. Not only that but at the same have the best overall experience that you can get. The outcome of a case being most important part but the whole process takes time with the different court dates being months apart. From first day I contacted Greg and talked to him I just knew that I was making the right choice. I immediately felt calmer and confident that this guy is a winner. I knew that he would clear up this mess I was wrongfully accused of. I am the type of person who doesn't just go buy the first car they see because they like how it looks. I research every detail and go over all the different features and compare all the different makes before buying. I of coarse did the same thing before choosing the top attorneys that I would contact to possibly hire. I felt avvo to be the most credible rating site after doing my research. I contacted 3 attorneys via avvo website and Greg was very quick and was first to respond. I told him my situation and that it was very crucial that I beat these charges. I also needed for him to show up to court with me a few hrs later that day being that I was not the one who got the mail the day summons arrived and was not aware of my court date til night before. Top that off with the fact that I was not prepared for the expense of paying for an attorney with less than a days notice. I told Greg that I could pay him by the end of day but I needed him to appear in court in just a few hr. I asked if he could find it in his heart to appear and take my word that he would get paid after. To my surprise he said he would do it. He took time out of his busy schedule to show up and help me on just my word and with very little notice. He made me feel at ease everytime we went into the court room . Always very calm and very knowledgeable and with a confidence that made me feel like he was a born winner and I had nothing to worry about. Which I think other than the outcome is huge factor because during the whole process you can't help but worry about what the outcome is gonna be. With the amount of time between court dates that's months of worrying. This can be overwhelming and take control of your life with the constant stress. Honestly Greg took all my stress away and I got enjoy life instead of being stressed the whole time and that makes a huge difference on one's quality of life. I even missed a court date on accident when I had my dates wrong. Greg showed at court and got me new court date and no bench warrant was issued and was like it never hapened which was a huge lifesaver. To wrap this all up as you already might of guess my case was dismissed without prejudice based on a few things that Greg found that I would have never thought of but we're brilliant and got the charges dropped. I wrote this to give ppl a very honest and thorough opinion of my experience so that others can use my review to the best decision when trying to choose the best attorney out of all the choices out there. Once again I can't thank you enough . You are a stand up guy and I thank you for your help.

Mr. Greg represented me in DV case and got it dismissed with prejudice. Thank you Greg Sir! Mr. Greg is very knowledgeable, hardworking and a great lawyer. He continuously assisted me throughout the process and he was always on time for all court appearances. He is incredibly responsive and used to... reply very quickly for all my questions. He also provided me great help from immigration side. Overall, his guidance to me and the resolution on this legal matter is astonishing! I would highly recommend Mr. Greg to anyone who is in need for legal help.

Greg amazed me with the way he handled my court cases, after he accepted my case, he kept me informed at all times, today he called and said "I got your case dismissed, enjoy your weekend!", this is my third case with him and he got it dismissed just the other 2 which makes it 3 for 3 so far, one o...f these cases if it wasn't for him I wouldn't of had my citizenship by now. Greg is not only a great lawyer, he is also VERY friendly and very warm guy, I will definitely continue to hire him for future court cases if any. Thank you Greg!

I was arrested for a DV charge that I didn't commit, and also had the Sheriff completely lie in the police report. Originally another attorney was handling my case. I dropped her after finding Greg here on Avvo. It was the best decision I could have made. The previous attorney did not address my conc...erns, didn't communicate what was going on, etc... Greg was the complete opposite. Even during my first phone call to Greg, he took almost an hour to talk to me, explaining everything in great detail, hearing my side, everything that my previous attorney did not do. Greg is extremely smart and operated with full command of the law. The criminal court system is completely out of balance and unfair, especially if you are a male being accused of assault. Greg was not only able to have my charge amended to something that wasn't assault, but got it deferred for a year in which it will fall off my record. Had I not had any prior record, I am confident that Greg could have easily gotten this bogus charge dismissed for me, but since he couldn't because of the state laws, he did the next best thing. Greg has a lot of knowledge and rapport with the prosecutors and judges at multiple court houses. You want an attorney that knows what kind of prosecutor and judge they are up against, otherwise it's like swinging blind and hoping to get a good hit. Just based on knowing this alone, I wouldn't pick anyone else. I was treated with the utmost compassion, respect, and understanding while I dealt with this situation. Many times Greg and I had conversations about other things aside from the legal issues. He really is a down to earth, nice guy, with your best interest in mind. Can't tell you how many other attorneys are just there to collect a check, and not bother to talk to their client. This was not Greg at all. I knew everything going on at all times, communication was excellent, easy, and didn't get ignored for 2 weeks like other typical attorneys. If you get into any kind of criminal trouble, I cannot recommend Greg enough, plain and simple. Class act all the way. Former military and a real gentlemen. Don't hurt yourself by using a public defender. You want Greg on your side instead.

I was arrested for DUI back in July and after spending 12 terrifying hours in lockup, I started calling lawyers the next day. Greg was very prompt in responding and spent about 2 hours on a Saturday calming me down, walking me through various possible scenarios. I met with him once and that was enoug...h to convince me to hire him. He did not falsely sugar-coat anything and talked to me with straight facts, no BS. He was in constant touch with me through the months my case was pending and was always available to talk at any time. His great experience came in handy as he directed me to various steps I needed to complete before the pre-trial hearings. Even though my case was a slam dunk and I was out of all hope of even getting the charge reduced. But Greg was able to pull a rabbit out of the hat for me and got my charge reduced to reckless driving. He helped me make better the worst decision I have made so far. Throughout the case I was assured by the way that the prosecutor and the judge greeted him. It spoke towards his experience dealing with cases and I could see the respect he got in the courtroom. At the end of my sentencing for the Reckless Driving plea, the judge mentioned how diligently/vigorously Greg follows up for his clients and that I should thank him for the reducing of the charge. I must say, I agree wholeheartedly. One last thing, I talked to many firms but always had the fear that I would talk to a senior lawyer once and then my case would be handed off and ignored. This is not the case with Greg. He was fully dedicated to my case. I would recommend him to be THE go to guy. He will take care of your issues.
