Drake Daigoro Metzger

Drake Metzger did a superb job on my somewhat complex case and was able to secure the best outcomes possible in the circumstances. The minute he agreed to take on my case, I felt tremendous support, comfort, and ease. It was like having your older brother helping you to deal with the bullies on the s...treet! Drake sets clear and realistic expectations and does not make overly or "padded" promises, and he's 100% committed to you. During the final stage of pre-trial and at trial, my case was extremely high-paced, involving a series of quick but consequential decisions; and Drake was thinking on his feet and was a fountain of ideas and tactics. He is very articulate and convincing when arguing your case. His witness questioning skills are superb. At trial, he would get to the crust of an argument, corner the witnesses for the prosecution with cogent, tough questions, and set up his questioning scheme in a way that would lead to the desired implications for the defense. He would come up with an in-depth 360-degree analysis of all the evidence and facts from various viewpoints, including the defendant, the judge and the prosecutor, and he would provide a most helpful and sincere piece of advice. Drake is a talented negotiator, constantly interacting with the prosecution and making timely and effective motions to the judge in the interest of the client--that's what he did for me and Boy was he helpful!

This lawyer was empathetic and proactive. He was always available for questions, and had quick responses to missed calls. His knowledge of law was interpreted well, making it easy to understand the process of everything. He was always willing to discuss issues and was honest through the entire proces...s. Overall, great experience given the circumstances of needing a defense lawyer.
