Andrew is one of the smartest, most competitive people I've ever met. He knows the law backwards and forwards. When I have questions about Washington DWI/DUII law, he is my go-to person. You could not have a better fighter in your corner than Andrew Wheeler. I heartily endorse this lawyer.

I practice DUI in Seattle and whenever I have a client charged with DUI in the Vancouver area, I refer it to Andrew. Without exception, he has done a great job for my clients. If you are accused of a DUI, I highly recommend considering Andrew - he is smart, hard working and knows how to make things happen.

Andrew is the best DUI attorney in Clark County, no question. Anyone needing precise, intelligent advocacy should not hesitate to hire him.

I highly endorse this lawyer. I used to work with him in the Prosecutor's office and against him as a defense attorney. He was then, and is now, one of the best trial practice attorneys I have worked with or against. Andrew is literally the "go to" lawyer in the practice of DUI defense. I have watched him over the years create a very impressive resume in his private practice. I can't endorse Andrew enough.

It took me quite a while to locate a Washington DUI attorney that I can trust and believe in. Andrew is that attorney. He has done a great job for the clients I've referred to him, and we've even presented a joint DUI CLE together. Andrew knows his stuff, he takes care of his clients, and I highly recommend him.
