Excellent Attorney who really cares for his clients
Greg is phenomenal. His experience and knowledge of the criminal justice system is excellent. He took over the DV case and guided it to a clean dismissal. Greg is compassionate and caring, a rare quality for an attorney. He responded to all queries promptly and to the point, and always made himself available when I wanted to discuss things (sometimes even in late evenings or weekends if urgent). He was always encouraging and optimistic in our conversation. I wish I had chosen him, to represent, from the very beginning of the case and saved both time and money. I will always be grateful to him and recommend him to anyone without hesitation. Less

If you want a top rated lawyer who will give you the best chance possible of beating charges against you Greg’s who you need!
I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate and how pleased I was that I chose Greg to take my case. I’m not just writing this review just because. I honestly want to share my experience so others who have been wrongfully accused of a crime have the best chance they can get at beating there charges. Not only that but at the same have the best overall experience that you can get. The outcome of a case being most important part but the whole process takes time with the different court dates being months apart. From first day I contacted Greg and talked to him I just knew that I was making the right choice. I immediately felt calmer and confident that this guy is a winner. I knew that he would clear up this mess I was wrongfully accused of. I am the type of person who doesn’t just go buy the first car they see because they like how it looks. I research every detail and go over all the different features and compare all the different makes before buying. I of coarse did the same thing before choosing the top attorneys that I would contact to possibly hire. I felt avvo to be the most credible rating site after doing my research. I contacted 3 attorneys via avvo website and Greg was very quick and was first to respond. I told him my situation and that it was very crucial that I beat these charges. I also needed for him to show up to court with me a few hrs later that day being that I was not the one who got the mail the day summons arrived and was not aware of my court date til night before. Top that off with the fact that I was not prepared for the expense of paying for an attorney with less than a days notice. I told Greg that I could pay him by the end of day but I needed him to appear in court in just a few hr. I asked if he could find it in his heart to appear and take my word that he would get paid after. To my surprise he said he would do it. He took time out of his busy schedule to show up and help me on just my word and with very little notice. He made me feel at ease everytime we went into the court room . Always very calm and very knowledgeable and with a confidence that made me feel like he was a born winner and I had nothing to worry about. Which I think other than the outcome is huge factor because during the whole process you can’t help but worry about what the outcome is gonna be. With the amount of time between court dates that’s months of worrying. This can be overwhelming and take control of your life with the constant stress. Honestly Greg took all my stress away and I got enjoy life instead of being stressed the whole time and that makes a huge difference on one’s quality of life. I even missed a court date on accident when I had my dates wrong. Greg showed at court and got me new court date and no bench warrant was issued and was like it never hapened which was a huge lifesaver. To wrap this all up as you already might of guess my case was dismissed without prejudice based on a few things that Greg found that I would have never thought of but we’re brilliant and got the charges dropped. I wrote this to give ppl a very honest and thorough opinion of my experience so that others can use my review to the best decision when trying to choose the best attorney out of all the choices out there. Once again I can’t thank you enough . You are a stand up guy and I thank you for your help.

Professional, knowledgeable and respectful
With Greg’s help, my DUI case got to be closed recently. It was amended to Negligent Driving 2nd Degree. That’s what we expected, and he made it finally. He truly helped me out from the mess. Greg is a very professional, very knowledgeable and very respectful DUI attorney. He fought for me with all his enthusiasm and wisdom. During the long court waiting periods, he could always help me calm down to have the normal life. Thank you so much, Greg!!

5 STARS – PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU NEED AN ATTORNEY
I’d like to start this review by stating I have never had so much as a blemish on my record. I have lived an exemplary life, personally and professionally. What I can guess is if you’re on this page looking for a criminal defense attorney, then life has thrown you an unexpected curveball – and that is exactly what happened to me in January of 2017. I found myself in a situation from which all control had been taken from me. I was powerless to stop a set of events that had spun into motion, and this was a situation that I had never been in before. I felt anxious, scared, and alone. I felt like I had zero knowledge of the law, what was happening to me and around me, and I also had a feeling of “frenzy,” and what I mean by that specifically was my future was “up in the air” with no certainty as to what was going to happen down the road. I was searching AVVO for an attorney and that in and of itself was daunting. You can’t trust the internet, ever. I was lucky to find Greg – it was more than luck. He actually was IN the courtroom when I was being arraigned so when I reached to him online he responded immediately. He knew my case, clearly, because he saw it first hand. Call it coincidence, call it luck, call it whatever you want. Here is what I was looking for in my attorney: Responsiveness Honesty Fair Rates Dependability Expertise Knowledge Tact Understanding Effectiveness Let’s start with understanding. I can say quite sincerely that I was in a situation that spiraled out of control through no fault or little fault of my own. Greg did not look at me like a bad human being or a bad person. He understood EXACTLY what had happened to me and what I was going through at the time. It was mortifying to walk in and have to explain what happened, why it happened, and that I didn’t know the gravity or severity of the situation I was in. He put me at ease from the get-go. I remember him listening as a coach or teacher or parent would – and I didn’t feel like I was a bad person. He understood that I was in a way, a victim of the events that surrounded me and that was extremely helpful. When you are in a bad situation, being able to have an attorney who believes in you is a great start. Then he mapped out in excruciating detail what was going to happen, what could happen, what we could do, and all the variables. He took the “uncontrollable” and made it “known.” He took the powerlessness that came with this scenario and gave power back to me through knowledge and a very specific plan of attack considering all the variables. His rates were awesome. He is responsive and ridiculously fast when you email, text, or call him. This is CRITICAL when you are on the wrong side of a criminal legal battle. Knowing that someone is on your side and is going to respond to you when you need to talk or have a question (in my opinion) is one of the most important aspects of a good attorney (I’ve been divorced so trust me when I tell you that I know the opposite). Finally, he gets results. Not only were the charges dropped but I got exactly what I wanted in terms of our “action plan.” Here is the best part. My relationship ended with Greg in February of 2017, or so I thought. The criminal aspects of the case lingered and manifested in different ways throughout 2017 and 2018. Greg answered every email. Every text. Every phone call. Even on Sunday. 17 months after I paid him, it was as if he was still “working for me.” I give Greg the strongest recommendation possible for a criminal defense attorney. If you are looking, stop here. Trust in this review and in Greg. I owe him so much and I have to give him the credit that he deserves. He went above and beyond in every way possible and he actually deserves twice what his rate was for me. For the record, I got (according to Greg) the worst possible prosecutor in the county. It didn’t matter. I had Greg Schwesinger on my side.

Best out there
I hired Greg for my DV case and the Greg had the case dismissed with prejudice. From our first meeting itself Greg was very clear about the case and very open to me about all the possible scenarios. He always responded timely to all my queries. Greg has vast experience of practising around Seattle area courts and so that is helpful for building the case having worked with prosecutors of the area. Greg has my highest recommendation. Less

Highest praise for Greg Schwesinger
Greg is great! When our son was recently involved in a road rage incident, we didn’t know where to begin finding a lawyer. We did a quick internet search and chose SQ Attorneys simply because of their location. That turned out to be a lifesaver. Greg’s office responded immediately to our call, and he was able to meet with us that same day. Although he is clearly a busy man, he spent a full hour with us explaining the legal process and helping us understand what to expect. He was appropriately sympathetic with our family, patient with our naïve questions, and he put us all at ease. We left his office that day with reassurance that we were in good hands. Over the next few months, he helped us understand what to expect at each step of the way. He listened to our concerns, and we always felt he was fully in our corner. He discussed various legal strategies with us and explained pros and cons of the options, so we felt that every decision in the process was very well thought out. He is very well organized; he always contacted us ahead of court dates, and we never needed to remind him of anything. He remembered every detail of the case and weighed out carefully how each detail might impact the next step. He was able to bring us to a good outcome, and we are very grateful. His calm competence and his warm, friendly nature helped us weather a difficult time. We highly recommend his services to anyone facing legal problems.

Saad is the lawyer to hire.
Saad provided the absolute best defense and support for our son. He was compassionate, knowledgeable, worked quickly, responded immediately to us at all times, and was extremely professional. The outcome was better than we had hoped for and we will always be very thankful. Additionally, Saad went out of his way to get to know us and he answered literally hundreds of questions thoughtfully and with great detail. He is well-connected in the community and very familiar with what needs to happen to settle and negotiate cases. I cannot say enough about Saad Qadri. We had never had a situation like this before and would have been lost without his guidance.

Absolutely had my back
I got a hold of Saad last minute after finding out the day before that I had court in the morning for a Seattle DUI. He was extremely knowledgeable and attentive. He walked me through everything that could happen and advised me to get an important letter from my doctor that would really help me in court. He instantly gained my trust. I am a criminal defense paralegal by trade and I can tell Saad would have my back and present a strong defense. I absolutely recommend you look into hiring him.

Greg is the man
Greg amazed me with the way he handled my court cases, after he accepted my case, he kept me informed at all times, today he called and said “I got your case dismissed, enjoy your weekend!”, this is my third case with him and he got it dismissed just the other 2 which makes it 3 for 3 so far, one of these cases if it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t of had my citizenship by now. Greg is not only a great lawyer, he is also VERY friendly and very warm guy, I will definitely continue to hire him for future court cases if any. Thank you Greg!
