You face the loss of your freedom. The assistance of counsel at the outset of your case can increase the likelihood of an outcome in your favor. Not every case will result in a dismissal of charges or a "not guilty" finding. When that happens, you still need an attorney who can fight for a reasonable sentence and a just result.
Whether you're driving impaired, without a license, or suspended, you face jail time whether it's your first offense or your fourth. Hiring the right attorney to represent you ensures that he or she will look at the basis for the stop to make sure it was lawful, the training of law enforcement to ensure they were properly trained to perform field tests or breath tests, and the certification of the testing equipment.
Quite simply, civil litigation is a lawsuit filed by one party (the plaintiff) against one or more other parties (the defendants). There are rules of procedure that must be followed, discovery procedures, and trials in both district and circuit courts. Along the way, all civil cases involve some form of alternative dispute resolution through mediation or a court-ordered settlement conference.

Steve did a super job for us. He handled our case quickly, answered all our questions, and guided us through the legal process. He was always on top of things. I am not sure how someone would navigate the process without a good lawyer. We recommend Steve 100%.
