The smartest decision I have ever made was hiring Greg to fix the worst decision I had ever made
I never thought it would happen to me, as a responsible driver and someone who has never broken the law in their whole life I never thought I would be on the arrest-end of a DUI. After spending a horrifying and scary mandatory night in county prison (after blowing a .133) and realizing the future consequences of my actions, I knew that I had to act quickly and hire the best possible legal representation. After interviewing and pricing out two other well-known and highly rated law firms, I then chose 1 more to interview, and the AVVO reviews led me to Greg Schwesinger of SQ Attorneys. The difference in service was immediate from the very first phone consultation. I’ll have to admit that I was still feeling very nervous and ashamed when we had that first conversation – thinking that my life would be over and that my reputation would be marred forever. But one evening after submitting an online form on his website he contacted me WITHIN THE HOUR. Greg took the initial time to hear me out, learn about my situation, and gave me every opportunity to ask any questions before hiring him. He even invited me to bring along my significant other to our first meeting in case she also had any questions too. Upon taking my case, Greg immediately got to work and instructed me on how to go about all the necessary actions that I would need to take regarding the license suspension, DUI victims panel, psychological testing for addiction, ignition interlock device, reinstating the license…everything (there’s more, trust me)! After my arrest, all of these things seemed so daunting, but Greg was there 100% of the way, ushering me along and making sure that I took care of ALL the things that I had control over. The DUI arrest made me feel powerless, ashamed, and badly depressed, but Greg’s support, enthusiasm and direction definitely helped detour those feelings. His ability to advise me on how to manage my time (in regards to my case) was imperative to getting the results that I wanted throughout the entire process. Greg was very upfront and timely with all the matters of my case. He was available 24/7 throughout the entire process whether it was via phone call, text, or email. If at any time I had a question or was confused about something from court or from the DOL he would immediately find a way to answer my question. Greg is incredibly knowledgeable and made it very clear about the status of the courts and other cases like mine. He did a fine job clarifying to me where we stood in relation to other similar cases as well as what our reasonable expectations should be for a resolution. Before and after each painfully long court session he was very diligent about updating me on the current status of my case as well as what to do next. You can tell immediately when stepping into the courtroom that Greg is a well-respected and well-known attorney. He handles himself with the utmost professionalism and was deft in executing our game plan. He is also a good person and always seems to know exactly what to say, even when I was feeling incredibly nervous before a court proceeding, he would always make sure that we’d have a good talk, and that would definitely calm me down. Greg knows his stuff, he thoroughly investigated every minute detail and knew the intricacies of working with each individual judge and prosecutor. And he gets results. One of the hardest things to learn when you go to court for a DUI arrest is that the court system TAKES FOREVER. My advice for you is to hire Greg, tell him everything, be honest with yourself, follow his advice, and be patient. Greg managed to work out a deal on my case (after nearly 2 years of back and forth in the court system), and I got to finally walk away and start anew – Greg got my jail-mandatory and permanent black-mark DUI arrest lowered to a Reckless Driving charge, and more importantly it’s a charge that will be dismissed after 2 years of safe driving.

“Right choice” I wish I could give him more than 5 stars
Greg Schwesinger is excellent attorney without him, I would be end up in bad situation, I got domestic violence which was accusation after I have been talked and met so many attorney, and I couldn’t satisfy them, luckily I got Greg which is so honest, humble and very professional when he is talking to you then I decided to hire him, and I am so glad that I made right choice. Entire my case, He’s very communicate and share me any outcome whole the process and not good communication, but he makes me so comfortable because of I was so crazy to ask him too many questions and also he’s so aggressive when he is in court and he’s trying to get in every angle that he can. Finally I got my case dismissed. I really recommend without hesitation whoever wants to good outcome. I will refer anyone that I know who needs attorney. Thank you so much Greg, you really are best attorney and you save my life in terrible.

Knowledgable, Professional, Highly recommended..
I highly recommend Mr.Saad. He was very helpful explaining my case and walking me through the whole agenda. He is really professional and he’ll make you feel your the most important client he has. Always on point and communicates well via phone and email. Domestic Violence was a stressful emotional time for me. My situation in my case had so many implications that could have affected my career after the DV in so many negative ways. I’m new to USA at that time. I even don’t know anyone apart from my work place. He helped me to get rid of all these stuffs and saved my job. When I thought the worst was going to happen in my DV battle. Saad assuring me that everything was fine, and followed up by making sure it was indeed just that. whenever I had fear, or was ignorant in a matter, Saad had the Knowledge and answers for all of it. His confidence shines and his performance is superb. he is extremely intelligent, sharp, and on top of his case.I would happily recommend Mr. Saad Qamer Qadri as an attorney to all who is suffered in DV.

Absolutely the Best
Saad helped me through what was probably the most stressful time in my life. I’ve worked with attorneys before and I have never had one who contacted me within minutes of asking a question. He understands the unique aspects of each court , the people involved and is honest about everything. Even though I was doubtful, he kept telling me to trust him and guess what? Everything went exactly how he predicted the charges were dismissed. If you are in need of an attorney who is really looking out for your best interest, I recommend Saad Qadri.

The Best Man For The Job
Greg helped me navigate through a very long and emotional domestic dispute. I know that without his council, I would not have had the optimal outcome that was reached. Greg’s knowledge of Law and his overall professionalism was invaluable during one of the most difficult ordeals I’ve ever been a part of. I

The best
After much research, I chose Greg and I’m so glad that I did. Greg is someone I instantly trusted and I knew he would do anything he could to help us resolve the situation we were in. He is so invested in his cases and he kept in constant communication with us throughout the whole process, he would explain things until I understood them and with extreme patience. He took a horrible, complicated situation and completely turned it around. The case was dismissed and we have our lives back. I can’t recommend Greg and his amazing team enough.

Brought closure to a miserable period of time
I hired Greg 4 months ago when I received a criminal summons in the mail for an issue I thought had been resolved. Greg was very consistent and worked to fight on my behalf despite the fact that the City chose to press charges on an issue that I thought had been resolved. I am fairly well-educated and have understand the duties of the City when it comes to prosecuting crime and protecting our public, but I was still shocked given what I was told when the incident occurred. When I got that postal, I saw my life falling apart. My career? My PhD? My standing in society and my community? I questioned if all of this was going to be shattered. A few days later, I found Greg and consulted him. He immediately contacted me despite it being Thanksgiving and offered me honest, straight-forward advice on how the case could proceed. Within hours of hiring him, he had prepared and emailed me preliminary paperwork which made it so I did not need to appear for arraignment. What a blessing! I was already embarrassed enough to be going through this. The thought of future hearings alone made me feel ill! The case took 4 months to come to an agreement with the City. It took 3 appearances (due to the prosecution offering me a deal during the first PTH that I clearly was not eligible for). Despite this, Greg remained professional and supportive. I’ll fully admit I pretty much was breaking down every single day without letting Greg know how much this was impacting my life, but when I did mention the intense anxiety this was causing me he was extremely supportive and encouraged me to contact him IMMEDIATELY for support. Whenever we spoke, he would provide not only legal support but also emotional support. It takes a lot for me to hand over control of my life to another person, but it was very wise for me to do so with Greg. In the end, he was able to secure me a very favorable deal that would allow me to rest easy and continue on with my wonderful life. Greg … thank you. So much. There’s a reason you don’t have a single blemish on your client reviews. TS

5 Stars isn’t enough!!!
Not only is the man a fellow military veteran, he’s an excellent attorney that was always there when I needed him and despite the length of my court case (2+ years) he never gave up and stuck by my side until we won the case….couldn’t be happier with his level of knowledge and professionalism.
