In Austin, during no refusal weekend, I got pulled over for speeding on Congress (11 mph over). I had been drinking earlier in the night, and refused to blow (officer did report that I did well on the field sobriety tests). Subsequently, I was taken to jail and charged with a DWI and UCW. Hired Matt Shrum the next day. From day 1, Matt and his staff were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Matt has always been in communication and is well versed in criminal law. He kept every appointment and was always accessible. 1.5 years after my initial arrest, we pled to obstruction of a highway. DWI and UCW were dismissed. I am extremely satisfied. Matt is awesome!

If you need an attorney for DWI or anything else, trust me, Matt is your guy. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. I got a DWI and needed to find an attorney. It was my first DWI, so I really didn't have a clue how to pick the right/best attorney (considering there are so many). After doing a lot of research and looking through the pile of marketing letters I had received through mail from different attorneys, Matt was one of five or so that I called or met with. Long story short, of all the attorneys I talked to (and they were all highly competent, pricey, known attorneys), in my opinion, Matt was on another level mentally. A strategic thinker who looks a things from different angles (we talked for a while). I also looked up how many cases he had working (which was a large number), as well as his past results. I was impressed. I also learned that he was a former prosecutor. I came to the conclusion that he was intelligent, highly competent, and a hard worker. Just what I was looking for. All in all, what I observed and experienced is that Matt knows the game from both a prosecutor and criminal defense perspective, and was well liked by the prosecutors and judge. I'd recommend him to my family and closest friends without hesitation. He got my DWI reduced to an obstruction of highway charge. Thank you Matt.

Mr. Shrum handled my DWI case in San Antonio, TX. My original charge was a DWI with a BAC of 0.15 or higher but he was able to negotiate my case to be deferred adjudicated with some community service and online courses. The results of my case ended with the best possible outcome thanks to Matthew Shrum. My experience with Mr. Shrum and members of his firm were excellent. They were always available to talk me through things and ease my worries. I highly recommend his services if you ever find yourself in need of them.

Matt Shrum helped me in "a bit of a jam". The experience was very scary and he made me feel like it was not the end of the world. He was very informative about the procedures and seemed to know exactly how things were going to turn out even though he couldn't "guarantee anything". With the exceptional outcome I would recommend him to anyone in trouble.

Matthew Shrum helped me immensely when I was battling my DWI. Himself or his assistant were constantly at my disposal, and he succeeded in achieving the results I wanted from the court. He instructed me in detail on the costs, classes, and all the ins and outs of what it would take to fight this, learn from it, and be successful with the court system. I am grateful for all of the help he was able to provide me and his pricing was extremely reasonable as well. I would recommend Mr. Shrum to anyone in a pickle!

Better Call Matt. I’ve worked with Matt (and numerous attorneys before finding him) for over 5 years now. He is by far - the BEST attorney you will ever have on your case. I’ve had several issues that other attorneys were skeptical about at best and Matt resolved all of them brilliantly- and he was able to make sure we got the results that I wanted! Not the ‘Easy Way’ that the others wanted. This guy makes miracles happen for breakfast. I’ve never met an attorney that takes every case personally as though it was his own. He’s a fighter - an amazing negotiator - and cool to work with. If you don’t hire Matt, you’re taking a risk on the most important thing you have, your record. Trust me, this guy is simply amazing. Literally the only attorney I’ve ever loved lol. I keep him in my contacts for all my legal matters. Better call Matt!

We hired Matt to handle a criminal matter for a family member and his work was great. He was able to work with the court to get the most favorable outcome for us and we cannot thank him enough for what he accomplished. Matt kept us informed of what was going on and was responsive anytime we had questions or concerns. We would highly recommend Matt Shrum to anyone needing a criminal attorney. His professionalism, knowledge and ability to work with the court made for a great outcome.

Mr. Shrum was highly recommended to me by a friend of mine who had used his services before. The first phone call that I made to Matt indicated to me that he was more than willing and able to assist me in my legal matter. I found Matt to be straightforward with me, knowledgeable, helpful and above all available. Because of my job and my schedule, Matt was always able to work with me whenever a court appearance was warranted and his extensive knowledge of the Travis County court system as well as the local municipal field was an immense help in my situation. It is with great confidence and pride that I recommend Mr. Shrum for your legal needs.

Matt Shrum is a miracle worker. Over a half-century into my life, I was arrested for a first and only DWI. Recognizing that I posed no danger to society, Mr. Shrum not only achieved the impossible — which was to get my case dismissed (deferred prosecution)! — but did so allowing a payment plan flexible enough for me to manage on a fixed income. When initially shopping for an attorney, I spoke with many, and my hopes were low, based on the evidence for the prosecution. Most with whom I spoke were helpful, and I’d narrowed the choices down to a few who seemed exceptional without their making false promises as to potential outcomes. What struck me about Matt were several things, among them that • he was highly respected by his colleagues, as I learned around that time and later at the courthouse, • he’d been a prosecuting attorney previously, which would aid him in empathizing with the state, and lent him an extra negotiating tool or two from having had that relationship with the prosecutors’ office, • he was the most willing to work out a payment plan, even though it was apparent that he didn’t need to in order to gain anymore clients, and • in the end, my gut told me he was the right guy. Mr. Shrum is professional, knows his stuff, operates at a high level of integrity, and I will be forever grateful to him.

My original charge was a DWI with a BAC of 0.15 or higher but he was able to negotiate my case to be deferred adjudicated with some community service and online courses. The results of my case ended with the best possible outcome thanks to Matthew Shrum. My experience with Mr. Shrum and members of his firm were excellent. They were always available to talk me through things and ease my worries. I highly recommend his services if you ever find yourself in need of them.

Matt Shrum helped me in "a bit of a jam". The experience was very scary and he made me feel like it was not the end of the world. He was very informative about the procedures and seemed to know exactly how things were going to turn out even though he couldn't "guarantee anything". With the exceptional outcome I would recommend him to anyone in trouble.

Matthew Shrum helped me immensely when I was battling my DWI. Himself or his assistant were constantly at my disposal, and he succeeded in achieving the results I wanted from the court. He instructed me in detail on the costs, classes, and all the ins and outs of what it would take to fight this, learn from it, and be successful with the court system. I am grateful for all of the help he was able to provide me and his pricing was extremely reasonable as well. I would recommend Mr. Shrum to anyone in a pickle!

Better Call Matt. I’ve worked with Matt (and numerous attorneys before finding him) for over 5 years now. He is by far - the BEST attorney you will ever have on your case. I’ve had several issues that other attorneys were skeptical about at best and Matt resolved all of them brilliantly- and he was able to make sure we got the results that I wanted! Not the ‘Easy Way’ that the others wanted. This guy makes miracles happen for breakfast. I’ve never met an attorney that takes every case personally as though it was his own. He’s a fighter - an amazing negotiator - and cool to work with. If you don’t hire Matt, you’re taking a risk on the most important thing you have, your record. Trust me, this guy is simply amazing. Literally the only attorney I’ve ever loved lol. I keep him in my contacts for all my legal matters. Better call Matt!

We hired Matt to handle a criminal matter for a family member and his work was great. He was able to work with the court to get the most favorable outcome for us and we cannot thank him enough for what he accomplished. Matt kept us informed of what was going on and was responsive anytime we had questions or concerns. We would highly recommend Matt Shrum to anyone needing a criminal attorney. His professionalism, knowledge and ability to work with the court made for a great outcome.

Mr. Shrum was highly recommended to me by a friend of mine who had used his services before. The first phone call that I made to Matt indicated to me that he was more than willing and able to assist me in my legal matter. I found Matt to be straightforward with me, knowledgeable, helpful and above all available. Because of my job and my schedule, Matt was always able to work with me whenever a court appearance was warranted and his extensive knowledge of the Travis County court system as well as the local municipal field was an immense help in my situation. It is with great confidence and pride that I recommend Mr. Shrum for your legal needs.

Matt Shrum is a miracle worker. Over a half-century into my life, I was arrested for a first and only DWI. Recognizing that I posed no danger to society, Mr. Shrum not only achieved the impossible — which was to get my case dismissed (deferred prosecution)! — but did so allowing a payment plan flexible enough for me to manage on a fixed income. When initially shopping for an attorney, I spoke with many, and my hopes were low, based on the evidence for the prosecution. Most with whom I spoke were helpful, and I’d narrowed the choices down to a few who seemed exceptional without their making false promises as to potential outcomes. What struck me about Matt were several things, among them that • he was highly respected by his colleagues, as I learned around that time and later at the courthouse, • he’d been a prosecuting attorney previously, which would aid him in empathizing with the state, and lent him an extra negotiating tool or two from having had that relationship with the prosecutors’ office, • he was the most willing to work out a payment plan, even though it was apparent that he didn’t need to in order to gain anymore clients, and • in the end, my gut told me he was the right guy. Mr. Shrum is professional, knows his stuff, operates at a high level of integrity, and I will be forever grateful to him.

In Austin, during no refusal weekend, I got pulled over for speeding on Congress (11 mph over). I had been drinking earlier in the night, and refused to blow (officer did report that I did well on the field sobriety tests). Subsequently, I was taken to jail and charged with a DWI and UCW. Hired Matt Shrum the next day. From day 1, Matt and his staff were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Matt has always been in communication and is well versed in criminal law. He kept every appointment and was always accessible. 1.5 years after my initial arrest, we pled to obstruction of a highway. DWI and UCW were dismissed. I am extremely satisfied. Matt is awesome!

If you need an attorney for DWI or anything else, trust me, Matt is your guy. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. I got a DWI and needed to find an attorney. It was my first DWI, so I really didn't have a clue how to pick the right/best attorney (considering there are so many). After doing a lot of research and looking through the pile of marketing letters I had received through mail from different attorneys, Matt was one of five or so that I called or met with. Long story short, of all the attorneys I talked to (and they were all highly competent, pricey, known attorneys), in my opinion, Matt was on another level mentally. A strategic thinker who looks a things from different angles (we talked for a while). I also looked up how many cases he had working (which was a large number), as well as his past results. I was impressed. I also learned that he was a former prosecutor. I came to the conclusion that he was intelligent, highly competent, and a hard worker. Just what I was looking for. All in all, what I observed and experienced is that Matt knows the game from both a prosecutor and criminal defense perspective, and was well liked by the prosecutors and judge. I'd recommend him to my family and closest friends without hesitation. He got my DWI reduced to an obstruction of highway charge. Thank you Matt.

Hired Matt Shrum the next day. From day 1, Matt and his staff were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Matt has always been in communication and is well versed in criminal law. He kept every appointment and was always accessible. 1.5 years after my initial arrest, we pled to obstruction of a highway. DWI and UCW were dismissed. I am extremely satisfied. Matt is awesome!

If you need an attorney for DWI or anything else, trust me, Matt is your guy. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. I got a DWI and needed to find an attorney. It was my first DWI, so I really didn't have a clue how to pick the right/best attorney (considering there are so many). After doing a lot of research and looking through the pile of marketing letters I had received through mail from different attorneys, Matt was one of five or so that I called or met with. Long story short, of all the attorneys I talked to (and they were all highly competent, pricey, known attorneys), in my opinion, Matt was on another level mentally. A strategic thinker who looks a things from different angles (we talked for a while). I also looked up how many cases he had working (which was a large number), as well as his past results. I was impressed. I also learned that he was a former prosecutor. I came to the conclusion that he was intelligent, highly competent, and a hard worker. Just what I was looking for. All in all, what I observed and experienced is that Matt knows the game from both a prosecutor and criminal defense perspective, and was well liked by the prosecutors and judge. I'd recommend him to my family and closest friends without hesitation. He got my DWI reduced to an obstruction of highway charge. Thank you Matt.

Mr. Shrum handled my DWI case in San Antonio, TX. My original charge was a DWI with a BAC of 0.15 or higher but he was able to negotiate my case to be deferred adjudicated with some community service and online courses. The results of my case ended with the best possible outcome thanks to Matthew Shrum. My experience with Mr. Shrum and members of his firm were excellent. They were always available to talk me through things and ease my worries. I highly recommend his services if you ever find yourself in need of them.

Matt Shrum helped me in "a bit of a jam". The experience was very scary and he made me feel like it was not the end of the world. He was very informative about the procedures and seemed to know exactly how things were going to turn out even though he couldn't "guarantee anything". With the exceptional outcome I would recommend him to anyone in trouble.

Matthew Shrum helped me immensely when I was battling my DWI. Himself or his assistant were constantly at my disposal, and he succeeded in achieving the results I wanted from the court. He instructed me in detail on the costs, classes, and all the ins and outs of what it would take to fight this, learn from it, and be successful with the court system. I am grateful for all of the help he was able to provide me and his pricing was extremely reasonable as well. I would recommend Mr. Shrum to anyone in a pickle!

Better Call Matt. I’ve worked with Matt (and numerous attorneys before finding him) for over 5 years now. He is by far - the BEST attorney you will ever have on your case. I’ve had several issues that other attorneys were skeptical about at best and Matt resolved all of them brilliantly- and he was able to make sure we got the results that I wanted! Not the ‘Easy Way’ that the others wanted. This guy makes miracles happen for breakfast. I’ve never met an attorney that takes every case personally as though it was his own. He’s a fighter - an amazing negotiator - and cool to work with. If you don’t hire Matt, you’re taking a risk on the most important thing you have, your record. Trust me, this guy is simply amazing. Literally the only attorney I’ve ever loved lol. I keep him in my contacts for all my legal matters. Better call Matt!

We hired Matt to handle a criminal matter for a family member and his work was great. He was able to work with the court to get the most favorable outcome for us and we cannot thank him enough for what he accomplished. Matt kept us informed of what was going on and was responsive anytime we had questions or concerns. We would highly recommend Matt Shrum to anyone needing a criminal attorney. His professionalism, knowledge and ability to work with the court made for a great outcome.

Mr. Shrum was highly recommended to me by a friend of mine who had used his services before. The first phone call that I made to Matt indicated to me that he was more than willing and able to assist me in my legal matter. I found Matt to be straightforward with me, knowledgeable, helpful and above all available. Because of my job and my schedule, Matt was always able to work with me whenever a court appearance was warranted and his extensive knowledge of the Travis County court system as well as the local municipal field was an immense help in my situation. It is with great confidence and pride that I recommend Mr. Shrum for your legal needs.

Matt Shrum is a miracle worker. Over a half-century into my life, I was arrested for a first and only DWI. Recognizing that I posed no danger to society, Mr. Shrum not only achieved the impossible — which was to get my case dismissed (deferred prosecution)! — but did so allowing a payment plan flexible enough for me to manage on a fixed income. When initially shopping for an attorney, I spoke with many, and my hopes were low, based on the evidence for the prosecution. Most with whom I spoke were helpful, and I’d narrowed the choices down to a few who seemed exceptional without their making false promises as to potential outcomes. What struck me about Matt were several things, among them that • he was highly respected by his colleagues, as I learned around that time and later at the courthouse, • he’d been a prosecuting attorney previously, which would aid him in empathizing with the state, and lent him an extra negotiating tool or two from having had that relationship with the prosecutors’ office, • he was the most willing to work out a payment plan, even though it was apparent that he didn’t need to in order to gain anymore clients, and • in the end, my gut told me he was the right guy. Mr. Shrum is professional, knows his stuff, operates at a high level of integrity, and I will be forever grateful to him.

I found Matt to be straightforward with me, knowledgeable, helpful and above all available. Because of my job and my schedule, Matt was always able to work with me whenever a court appearance was warranted and his extensive knowledge of the Travis County court system as well as the local municipal field was an immense help in my situation. It is with great confidence and pride that I recommend Mr. Shrum for your legal needs.

Matt Shrum is a miracle worker. Over a half-century into my life, I was arrested for a first and only DWI. Recognizing that I posed no danger to society, Mr. Shrum not only achieved the impossible — which was to get my case dismissed (deferred prosecution)! — but did so allowing a payment plan flexible enough for me to manage on a fixed income. When initially shopping for an attorney, I spoke with many, and my hopes were low, based on the evidence for the prosecution. Most with whom I spoke were helpful, and I’d narrowed the choices down to a few who seemed exceptional without their making false promises as to potential outcomes. What struck me about Matt were several things, among them that • he was highly respected by his colleagues, as I learned around that time and later at the courthouse, • he’d been a prosecuting attorney previously, which would aid him in empathizing with the state, and lent him an extra negotiating tool or two from having had that relationship with the prosecutors’ office, • he was the most willing to work out a payment plan, even though it was apparent that he didn’t need to in order to gain anymore clients, and • in the end, my gut told me he was the right guy. Mr. Shrum is professional, knows his stuff, operates at a high level of integrity, and I will be forever grateful to him.

In Austin, during no refusal weekend, I got pulled over for speeding on Congress (11 mph over). I had been drinking earlier in the night, and refused to blow (officer did report that I did well on the field sobriety tests). Subsequently, I was taken to jail and charged with a DWI and UCW. Hired Matt Shrum the next day. From day 1, Matt and his staff were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Matt has always been in communication and is well versed in criminal law. He kept every appointment and was always accessible. 1.5 years after my initial arrest, we pled to obstruction of a highway. DWI and UCW were dismissed. I am extremely satisfied. Matt is awesome!

If you need an attorney for DWI or anything else, trust me, Matt is your guy. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. I got a DWI and needed to find an attorney. It was my first DWI, so I really didn't have a clue how to pick the right/best attorney (considering there are so many). After doing a lot of research and looking through the pile of marketing letters I had received through mail from different attorneys, Matt was one of five or so that I called or met with. Long story short, of all the attorneys I talked to (and they were all highly competent, pricey, known attorneys), in my opinion, Matt was on another level mentally. A strategic thinker who looks a things from different angles (we talked for a while). I also looked up how many cases he had working (which was a large number), as well as his past results. I was impressed. I also learned that he was a former prosecutor. I came to the conclusion that he was intelligent, highly competent, and a hard worker. Just what I was looking for. All in all, what I observed and experienced is that Matt knows the game from both a prosecutor and criminal defense perspective, and was well liked by the prosecutors and judge. I'd recommend him to my family and closest friends without hesitation. He got my DWI reduced to an obstruction of highway charge. Thank you Matt.

Mr. Shrum handled my DWI case in San Antonio, TX. My original charge was a DWI with a BAC of 0.15 or higher but he was able to negotiate my case to be deferred adjudicated with some community service and online courses. The results of my case ended with the best possible outcome thanks to Matthew Shrum. My experience with Mr. Shrum and members of his firm were excellent. They were always available to talk me through things and ease my worries. I highly recommend his services if you ever find yourself in need of them.

Matt Shrum helped me in "a bit of a jam". The experience was very scary and he made me feel like it was not the end of the world. He was very informative about the procedures and seemed to know exactly how things were going to turn out even though he couldn't "guarantee anything". With the exceptional outcome I would recommend him to anyone in trouble.

Matthew Shrum helped me immensely when I was battling my DWI. Himself or his assistant were constantly at my disposal, and he succeeded in achieving the results I wanted from the court. He instructed me in detail on the costs, classes, and all the ins and outs of what it would take to fight this, learn from it, and be successful with the court system. I am grateful for all of the help he was able to provide me and his pricing was extremely reasonable as well. I would recommend Mr. Shrum to anyone in a pickle!

Better Call Matt. I’ve worked with Matt (and numerous attorneys before finding him) for over 5 years now. He is by far - the BEST attorney you will ever have on your case. I’ve had several issues that other attorneys were skeptical about at best and Matt resolved all of them brilliantly- and he was able to make sure we got the results that I wanted! Not the ‘Easy Way’ that the others wanted. This guy makes miracles happen for breakfast. I’ve never met an attorney that takes every case personally as though it was his own. He’s a fighter - an amazing negotiator - and cool to work with. If you don’t hire Matt, you’re taking a risk on the most important thing you have, your record. Trust me, this guy is simply amazing. Literally the only attorney I’ve ever loved lol. I keep him in my contacts for all my legal matters. Better call Matt!

I am grateful for all of the help he was able to provide me and his pricing was extremely reasonable as well. I would recommend Mr. Shrum to anyone in a pickle!

Better Call Matt. I’ve worked with Matt (and numerous attorneys before finding him) for over 5 years now. He is by far - the BEST attorney you will ever have on your case. I’ve had several issues that other attorneys were skeptical about at best and Matt resolved all of them brilliantly- and he was able to make sure we got the results that I wanted! Not the ‘Easy Way’ that the others wanted. This guy makes miracles happen for breakfast. I’ve never met an attorney that takes every case personally as though it was his own. He’s a fighter - an amazing negotiator - and cool to work with. If you don’t hire Matt, you’re taking a risk on the most important thing you have, your record. Trust me, this guy is simply amazing. Literally the only attorney I’ve ever loved lol. I keep him in my contacts for all my legal matters. Better call Matt!

We hired Matt to handle a criminal matter for a family member and his work was great. He was able to work with the court to get the most favorable outcome for us and we cannot thank him enough for what he accomplished. Matt kept us informed of what was going on and was responsive anytime we had questions or concerns. We would highly recommend Matt Shrum to anyone needing a criminal attorney. His professionalism, knowledge and ability to work with the court made for a great outcome.

Mr. Shrum was highly recommended to me by a friend of mine who had used his services before. The first phone call that I made to Matt indicated to me that he was more than willing and able to assist me in my legal matter. I found Matt to be straightforward with me, knowledgeable, helpful and above all available. Because of my job and my schedule, Matt was always able to work with me whenever a court appearance was warranted and his extensive knowledge of the Travis County court system as well as the local municipal field was an immense help in my situation. It is with great confidence and pride that I recommend Mr. Shrum for your legal needs.

Matt Shrum is a miracle worker. Over a half-century into my life, I was arrested for a first and only DWI. Recognizing that I posed no danger to society, Mr. Shrum not only achieved the impossible — which was to get my case dismissed (deferred prosecution)! — but did so allowing a payment plan flexible enough for me to manage on a fixed income. When initially shopping for an attorney, I spoke with many, and my hopes were low, based on the evidence for the prosecution. Most with whom I spoke were helpful, and I’d narrowed the choices down to a few who seemed exceptional without their making false promises as to potential outcomes. What struck me about Matt were several things, among them that • he was highly respected by his colleagues, as I learned around that time and later at the courthouse, • he’d been a prosecuting attorney previously, which would aid him in empathizing with the state, and lent him an extra negotiating tool or two from having had that relationship with the prosecutors’ office, • he was the most willing to work out a payment plan, even though it was apparent that he didn’t need to in order to gain anymore clients, and • in the end, my gut told me he was the right guy. Mr. Shrum is professional, knows his stuff, operates at a high level of integrity, and I will be forever grateful to him.

In Austin, during no refusal weekend, I got pulled over for speeding on Congress (11 mph over). I had been drinking earlier in the night, and refused to blow (officer did report that I did well on the field sobriety tests). Subsequently, I was taken to jail and charged with a DWI and UCW. Hired Matt Shrum the next day. From day 1, Matt and his staff were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Matt has always been in communication and is well versed in criminal law. He kept every appointment and was always accessible. 1.5 years after my initial arrest, we pled to obstruction of a highway. DWI and UCW were dismissed. I am extremely satisfied. Matt is awesome!

If you need an attorney for DWI or anything else, trust me, Matt is your guy. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. I got a DWI and needed to find an attorney. It was my first DWI, so I really didn't have a clue how to pick the right/best attorney (considering there are so many). After doing a lot of research and looking through the pile of marketing letters I had received through mail from different attorneys, Matt was one of five or so that I called or met with. Long story short, of all the attorneys I talked to (and they were all highly competent, pricey, known attorneys), in my opinion, Matt was on another level mentally. A strategic thinker who looks a things from different angles (we talked for a while). I also looked up how many cases he had working (which was a large number), as well as his past results. I was impressed. I also learned that he was a former prosecutor. I came to the conclusion that he was intelligent, highly competent, and a hard worker. Just what I was looking for. All in all, what I observed and experienced is that Matt knows the game from both a prosecutor and criminal defense perspective, and was well liked by the prosecutors and judge. I'd recommend him to my family and closest friends without hesitation. He got my DWI reduced to an obstruction of highway charge. Thank you Matt.

Mr. Shrum handled my DWI case in San Antonio, TX. My original charge was a DWI with a BAC of 0.15 or higher but he was able to negotiate my case to be deferred adjudicated with some community service and online courses. The results of my case ended with the best possible outcome thanks to Matthew Shrum. My experience with Mr. Shrum and members of his firm were excellent. They were always available to talk me through things and ease my worries. I highly recommend his services if you ever find yourself in need of them.

Matt Shrum helped me in "a bit of a jam". The experience was very scary and he made me feel like it was not the end of the world. He was very informative about the procedures and seemed to know exactly how things were going to turn out even though he couldn't "guarantee anything". With the exceptional outcome I would recommend him to anyone in trouble.
