Where to start ? Well last year was a experience to learn and share. About a year ago I was out and about with some co- workers and had a little too many drinks, to the point where I was under the influence and go behind the wheel , next thing I know , I woke up behind the wheel and reared ended someone, the passenger got a minor cut due to her phone hitting her eyebrow and SFPD AND SF Sheriff came to the scene and ran the test . My alcohol level was 3 times over the limit and I was book for a DUI and sat down in jail for 3 days , on the third night the DA dropped my felonies into misdemeanors and was released . Got on the web to look for a lawyer and found Aaron , I never had a lawyer and reading past reviews on Aaron , I took my chance on him , and man , I thank God because he came in a time where I was stressed out and didn’t know what was going to happen. He took care of everything and had to do what the courts told me to do . Accomplished what the courts told me to do and today got the my case dismissed, I was in disbelief when Aaron told me the outcome. All I know is Aaron is a great lawyer , he’s understanding and does his best for his clients ! If you ever in a situation like me or similar I would recommend Aaron to you , he came in a time where I was losing hoping and was getting into the mindset that this was it and was going to do some time , but thank God that wasn’t the case! Thank you and your are very much appreciated Aaron !

Mr. Bortel was an excellent attorney from beginning to end. He helped me navigate the judicial system seamlessly, stepped in to be present at all my court hearings so I wouldn’t have to, and even assisted me with finding a great place to perform my community service requirements (a place that I still intend on volunteering for after the requirements were met). He made the process painless and ultimately my case was dismissed through the Pretrial Diversion Program. I really appreciate all he did to help me with this terrible situation. He is absolutely the best and with every penny.

This guy knows DUI law inside and out. Everyone arrested for DUI deserves to have Attorney Bortel on their side. He is a one of a kind in his field. He has a unique talent of maintaining his genuine concern for his clients while at the same time vigorously fighting for the best outcome in every case.

If I could give Aaron Bortel more stars, I would. I was in a panic after getting a DUI arrest when I was out of town- also involving hitting a parked car. The DA wanted to also stick me with a hit and run charge - Aaron was able to get this charge dismissed and also negotiate out of the interlock device (note - depending on the county in which you get a DUI, this may not always be negotiable). But the bottom line is , Aaron will do everything he can to get you the best possible outcome. Not only is he an amazing lawyer- he is an incredibly compassionate and warm person. If he weren't such a great lawyer he should be a therapist. Aaron is also very responsive (more so than many of my family members!) - he always called, texted or emailed me back within the same day. One review I read questioned whether the services are worth the money - in fact, I think he's not charging enough given the quality of service. So if you have a DUI arrest in the SF Bay Area, don't even think twice - Aaron is the lawyer you want. I am so grateful that I found him. thank you Aaron!

Aaron is an amazing lawyer. Got me out of a huge mess by reducing my DUI charges to a reckless driving and even winning the DMV hearing ! My license was hence intact. All this within 8 months.... A stupid mistake could have costed me a lot more. Thanks to his tremendous expertise in handling both DUI and DMV hearings, I can continue with my life with peace. If you are facing something similar, please call him and atleast get a consultation. Trust me, it might just change your life....

Aaron has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to DUI cases. I found myself in a horrible circumstance, staring at a DUI charge that would derail my career and all I had ever worked for. I contacted a number of attorneys before speaking with Aaron, who all said it was going to happen and the best thing to do was to prepare for the trial. After speaking with Aaron, it became clear that he was not only willing to listen to me, to what happened, and what I needed but that he was also far more knowledgeable than any of the other attorneys I spoke to. He is calculated and meticulous in his approach. He has great attention to detail and walked me through every step of the way. He was always responsive too, even the rare time when I had a question on a weekend or after hours during the week. He helped me get out of a situation where I was a victim of circumstance and didn't do myself any favors either. Without Aaron's help, I would have been hit with everything. Instead, due to him being a champion for me and knowing what he does about the system, he helped me save my career and my livelihood. I cannot stress how important all of this was to me. If you find yourself in a situation like this, don't hesitate. This is your guy. Give him a call, and you'll know within seconds exactly what I mean from the moment you speak with him.

I was facing charges for my second DUI and did not know where to turn for help. I went to several Defense Attorneys but non of them focused their practice specifically on DUI Defense. Attorney Aaron Bortel is a master of his craft, and I cant say enough about his integrity to fight for his clients. He listened to my case, and showed me step by step on how we were going to move forward. He kept me informed of any updates through out the court appearances. My case got dismissed thanks to Attorney Aron Bortel and I cant thank him enough.

Aaron is an incredible lawyer and person. If you have been pulled over for a DUI, there is no better lawyer you can find than Aaron. I received a DUI for blowing a 0.13 in Santa Rosa, and Aaron was able to help me win the DMV hearing and get the case dismissed. It was the best possible outcome I could have hoped for and though not every case will turn out this way, Aaron will fight for you and make sure that the law was upheld every step of the way. Just as importantly, he's honest, kind, and empathetic. He will give you the facts, and it's clear he has both the experience, expertise, and intelligence to skillfully navigate these legal situations. You truly can't find a better lawyer. I have learned my lesson and to this day, will not get into the car if I've even had a sip of alcohol. I am so grateful to Aaron for helping me with a situation that could easily have been the worst experience of my life.

Aaron is the best lawyer you could get for a DUI. I got charged with a DUI with a speed enhancement for driving 117 mph on the freeway in alameda county. Aaron was able to get me off with a wet reckless and only 2 years of probation. I was able to keep my license and wasn't required to get sr22 or install a device to start my car. While I most certainly learnt my lesson Aaron made all the legal matters a breathe, now I'm able to put it behind me and move on. I know he's a bit expensive but he's worth every penny. Excellent service and communication, keeps you informed and goes the extra mile for you. I'm really very thankful for his devotion and determination.

After intviewing a couple of DUI attorneys, I hired Aaron Botel and it was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. Aaron was professional, trustworthy, informative and made me feel very comfortable thrroughout the entire process. Aaron saved my license, my job, and skillfully negotiated the best possible legal outcome for my situation. Aaron cares about his clients and their families. I couldn't reccomend Aaron Bortel enought as a DUI attorney.
