Great Lawyer, Great Guy

I was arrested for a second offense DUI and had been offered 45 days in jail. I'm a small business owner and that kind of jail time would have put me out of business and into bankruptcy. Russell got a video of my initial stop and filed a motion to suppress. The prosecutor dropped his offer from 45... days in jail to 48 hours in jail and I was thrilled. Thanks Russell, I don't know what I would have done without you.

Thank you Mr. Thomas

I was arrested for a first offense DUI. I didn't have that much too drink and thought I passed the cops tests, but he arrested me anyway. I thought I could handle this myself and that turned out to be a big mistake. I went to court by myself and was told I would have to plead guilty and go to jail... and that it would never come off my record. The prosecutor made a big deal out of the fact that I told the police I took prescription mediciation. The judge gave me some time to hire a lawyer and I called Mr. Thomas. He reviewed lab reports and talked to my doctor and took all that information to the DA. He got the charges dropped after a couple of more court dates.

Lifesaver!

I was facing a 2nd Offense DUI charge and had been offered 45 days in jail. I hired Mr. Thomas to fight my case. He undercovered a lot of information about my arresting officer getting in trouble various times with his department and persuaded the DA to drop my charges. I went from looking at six ...weeks in jail and losing my job to having my charges dropped completely. I can't thank Mr. Thomas enough. He was worth every penny. We fought the case a long time and he was always very patient and kept me informed about what was going on.

Great Lawyer

I recommend this lawyer. I was a few days away from completing probation for a first offense DUI when I was arrested for another DUI. I had hit rock bottom and was completely freaked out by the possibility of going to jail for a long, long time. I called Mr. Thomas and he immediately put me at eas...e. He helped me find a great rehab program and negotiated a great deal for me that avoided a big jail sentence and gave me another chance at straightening my life out.

Topnotch Legal Advice

I was arrested for DUI when approached by police while I was sleeping in my car outside of a bar. The first time we met, Mr. Thomas devised a strategy to win my case. And, after a preliminary hearing and later motion to suppress, the charges against me were dismissed before trial. Mr. Thomas is a ...very intelligent and thorough lawyer, and I felt he really cared about helping me. I highly recommend him.
