Skilled and dedicated counsel for a complex DUI case

I hired Michael Farese after being charged with a DUI that carried significant professional consequences. His profile, showing recognition in DUI defense, was accurate. He was incredibly thorough, explaining the science behind field sobriety tests and challenging procedural errors I never would have noticed. His six years of experience, particularly in the Ashland courts, were evident in his strategic approach. We achieved a much better outcome than I anticipated. My only minor critique is that during the busiest phases, email responses could sometimes take a full business day. That said, his expertise and dedication to my case were never in question. I highly recommend him for anyone facing serious charges in the area.
