READER QUESTION:

What does the part of the ad mean that says that it is an AV rated Stillwater OK DUI lawyer?

Charlie

Good question, Charlie.

This part of the ad refers to the AV rating system, a system employed to rate lawyers on many things. This rating tells you exactly what kind of quality the AV rated Stillwater OK DUI lawyer is, but even so it doesn’t sit in for a consultation and just because a lawyer is good doesn’t mean they are good for you.

For DUIs, unless your filthy rich, I’d only suggest looking for an expensive best rated AV lawyer if you have a very bad case with a bad outlook. Otherwise, even though a good AV rating does mean that the lawyer is experience, intelligent, and wins a lot of cases, that doesn’t mean that they are for you. Remember that your most important thing to do is to find a lawyer who is an expert in DUI law, not just law in general, so one of these good lawyers might have knowledge but not the kind that suits you.
