“I can’t begin to be thankful enough for having chosen Mr. Oliverson and his firm to work on my extreme DUI case. They have been able to give me a second chance in my personal and professional life, through basically the hardest time that I have faced so far. They were able to reverse a complete and seemingly irreversible mistake on my part, by having my case dismissed, that could have led to major repercussions with me and my 17-year-old son’s livelihood. I will recommend them to everybody that I speak to regarding a legal defense issue and will never forget this life chapter, and the lessons that I have learned from it. If you have an criminal justice issue that can affect your freedom and livelihood, you can trust that Oliverson Law will listen to you and try and get you the best outcome possible. We all know that the consequences of legal system can be extremely serious, so my advice is to be extra careful to avoid these mistakes and to choose Oliverson Law.”

“From the moment I called and spoke with Derek, I felt connected and relieved. He was very responsive and listened to my situation. After my dui arrest, I was worried and concerned about what may happen. The team took a lot of that stress into their hands away from me. They kept in contact with me throughout the process and if I had questions they were quick to respond. After a few court dates, Derek gave me a call personally to tell me that the prosecution had dropped all charges. It was an early Christmas present a few days before Christmas. Thank you again to the team at Oliverson Law.”
