Skillful and Persistent Attorney

Patrick Ritter was my attorney for an OWI case, his knowledge and experience working with those cases along with his perseverance helped me reach the best case outcome. Everything from communication and keeping me informed of what was happening to explaining any steps I would need to take were all ef...fective techniques Patrick had. I am thankful and would recommend him to take on OWI and with the similar cases.

Awesome Attorney!!

I worked with Attorney Patrick Ritter and could not be more pleased with the outcome! He was very knowledgeable and took the time to answer my questions (which I had many of). He was always very professional and returned my calls or emails quickly. He focused on the facts and evidence of my case ...and found many flaws in how the charges were being brought against me. He ultimately was able to get my DUI case dismissed and even got a speeding ticket involved to be lessened to a non-moving violation! Thank you so much!

Very patient informative and stress free!

Attorney Ritter was great, I don’t think I ever had to leave him a voicemail he was always available when I called the office. He was very patient with me and answered all my questions and was informative. Even knowing he deals with multiple cases he really made me feel like my case was equally impor...tant.

OWI Case

After being charged with an OWI, I hired Attorney Patrick Ritter because of his reputable track record. He was knowledgable in all aspects of the law, and was very thorough in answering any questions that arose. His experience and professionalism were unparalleled both in and out of the courtroom. If... anyone is seeking an excellent attorney at a fair rate, I highly recommend Attorney Patrick Ritter for his expentional legal representation.
