"I have turned my life around."

A few years ago I was going through a rough time in my life.  I was charged with 2 felonies and 2 DUI’s within a week.  While searching for a lawyer, a friend recommended April Preyar to me.

I made an appointment with April and explained my situation.  April did not sugar coat what I was facing and she decided to take my cases.  The fee to me was very reasonable considering the charges I was facing.  I thought I really screwed up my life and was fearful for my future.

April was able to get one of the felony charges dropped.  Due to the circumstances, April advised me to accept probation on the other felony.  I successfully completed the probation and I am 18 months away from having these charges expunged from my record.

The DUI’s took a little over three years to settle.  April accompanied me to court almost monthly.  April successfully argued both cases.  As it turned out, I paid some minimal fines for extraneous tickets and did some community service hours and five days of SWAP.

Considering I was facing possible incarceration, numerous fines, and the loss of my driving privileges, I am so thankful for April’s skill and expertise.  I have my life back.  While waiting for the resolution of my situation, I have turned my life around.  I am a few credits away from earning a Bachelor’s degree, I volunteer weekly at a food pantry, and will have a clean record in a few months. 

I couldn’t have done it without April.

"He sued the cops and got me money."

The police falsely arrested me, and planted drugs on me. Brendan not only beat my criminal case, he then sued the cops and got me money. Now that’s an attorney.

“I made some mistakes when I was young. At one point, it look like those mistakes would cost me the rest of my life. In 2007 I was convicted in Federal court of being a felon in possession of a gun, and was looking at 30 years in jail. Brendan, who had beaten cases for my brother and my son, swooped in, got the conviction overturned, and won the retrial. Now, I am back with my family—my wife and my children, because Brendan won a case that another lawyer lost. Brendan, I Thank my Creator for having known you and for the professionalism you bring to your craft.”
