When I was charged with Driving Under the Influence, everyone told me that I was going to jail and there was no reason to hire an attorney. When I met with Doug Schwab, he was honest with me about what to expect and I ended up hiring him to represent me. After a thorough investigation, he was able to get my DUI charge reduced to reckless driving because of issues with the stop, and I didn't end up serving any jail time! He was very professional and I would call him again in a heartbeat if I ever got in trouble again!
I retained Mr. Schwab when I was recently charged with DUI Drugs. He was very attentive and aggressive, and was always available when I had a question or needed advice. Mr. Schwab kept me informed throughout the process and I would recommend his services to anyone charged with DUI or a drug-related crime. He is the very best!
Specialties: high profile and complex criminal cases; handled a variety of cases including, but not limited to, misdemeanor and felony DUI's, sale and possession of drugs, child abuse, sex assault, attempted murder, fraud and theft, probation violations, and aggravated assaults; handled thousands of criminal cases and conducted over 75 trials including numerous jury trials involving misdemeanor, serious felony and dangerous felony charges
