Posted by Dave | September 03, 2015 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Excellent lawyer.

Denis did a great job for me. He clearly laid out all the options we had available, and as information came back about the case he walked me through the best course of action. He was always available in his office or by phone to answer any questions I had, and if he wasn't able to answer the phone he... called me back promptly. He is very respectful and professional and is easy to talk to. He seemed to have a great understanding of the severity of the situation but also was easy going and had a good sense of humor. In the court room though is where Denis really shined. Every time I showed up for court I would look around the room and Denis just had a different presence than other attorneys. Other attorneys were bumbling and arguing with the judge seemingly not understanding the process. Denis was very professional. He was confident and aggressive and got right to the point. He adapted well as things changed and played a great game of poker with the DA , getting me down from a DUI to a Negligent.

Excellent attention and advice

I have always felt very valued by Dennis because of the time and concern he has given my case. I hired him to represent me on a deferred sentence (2nd DUI) and he has been with me each hoop I have had to jump through as it can be trying and tedious. He explains things thoroughly, provides options and... gives great counsel. I have always appreciated his consistent patience and upbeat mood for the past 10 months we have been working together. I HIGHLY recommend his services...you would be lucky to have him in your corner.

Excellent Lawyer

Denis did an amazing job, can't speak highly enough about his professionalism. He was actually able to get my sentence reduced, and pretty much made it worth every penny I paid to the firm!

Such an AMAZING experience!

I wont go into too much detail about my specific case but Mr. Globa was truly top notch in helping me achieve an excellent outcome. I was arrested for a DUI and was able to get the charges reduced when I didn't even believe that would be an option. I was able to keep my license and had minimal disrup...tion to my life. Denis was so amazing in his knowledge of the law, weighing the options and making sure I was happy. He was extremely detailed oriented and insured I received a desirable result. I would highly recommend this firm and Denis to anyone.

Got my case dropped down to reckless driving, won my DOL hearing. I never had to think about my case, made this process as stress free as possible.
