Rick Mueller gave me a great experience for an overall bad situation. I was very glad with his service. And even replying in minutes at times where I thought I would have to wait the next day to hear back from him. I had a pretty hands off experience. He told me exactly what I needed to do with simple instructions. In the end Rick Mueller got me a result far better than I could have imagine. Would strongly recommend.
Look no further if you have reached this review page you have found yourself the best attorney for your case. When I contacted Mr. mueller I had already hired a attorney but after I talked to me mueller I knew he was a better fit for me. Right away he instructed me on what I needed to do to keep my license. He informed me on the entire length of the time from the arrest to my court date and after what would happen. I wont get into much detail on what happen but my arrest was not just a stop and I got arrested. It was much far worse than that. As you know the uncertainty and loosing everything we have worked So hard can be taken from us. MR mueller made sure that didn’t happen to me. He got me a great deal with the DA office and got some of the mandatory requirements removed. Which was a miracle. He was able to stay my license and keep me out of jail which was the most important for me. He assured me he would go to every court date which he did. I never had to show up which made it easy for my busy schedule. He answered all my calls when i had questions and through email he’s responds where within minutes which was very appreciated. Overall if you want a great deal and attorney who works hard for your case and is very receptive to calls and questions, and helps with the Dmv side of everything this is your attorney!
Being someone that has never even gotten a traffic ticket I was astonished, disappointed and overwhelmed when I was detained and charged with a DUI. As I was doing my due diligence in researching lawyers' I came across Rick Mueller's name. I called him and even before doing a consultation he provided me with tips and suggestions as to my next steps to take. I quickly realized he was professional, knowledgable, and had years of experience. He assured me he would take care of all the court and DMV proceedings and I would not need to miss any work, as I would not need to attend the proceedings. Rick had specific steps for me to take. He laid everything out that needed to be done in a very organized and easy to understand manner, and he always answered my phone calls and e-mails. He quickly followed up with me ever time he had new or additional information. Needless to say, I've been very happy with his service and would have no problem recommending him.
I don’t even know where to begin with this review — had I not gone with Rick as my attorney, pretty sure I’d be in jail. For context, was waaaay over the limit, drove into another vehicle, and caused damage to them and their car. Even though this was my first offense, jail was on the table. Terrified, completely alone without any family or support system, I turned to google and found Rick. Best decision I have ever made. He took care of EVERYTHING, and that was so crucial for me as I have PTSD and debilitating anxiety, etc. reading an email was even too much for me. But Rick was totally compassionate, listened to me and assured me everything would be okay. And I’ll tell you — best outcome. No jail, no SCRAM, no probation officer, no public service and even no community service! What?! He even lowered my fines. I’m so thrilled and happy with my outcome, I was so scared and had no one to turn to, so the fact that he replied to my questions and concerns so quickly really helped ease me. If you’re still looking for an attorney, you found the right one — Rick Mueller.
Rick Mueller is knowledgeable and professional. He saved me more than he charged me, was always available and guided me in a challenging time. He has earned my highest praise and thanks.
We were very pleased with the service received from Rick. He's very organized and transmits clear info as to client responsibility and deadlines in a series of detailed emails. The communication is a forte of his practice. He did all the appearances and then reported promptly. We were pleased with outcome and highly recommend this attorney.
From the beginning, Rick was very detail oriented and well versed in his field of practice. Anytime I sent him an email he responded within the hour. I felt like I had a genuine friend and professional on my side when I was worried about losing my job, going to jail, and not seeing my 6 year old son because of a second DUI within 5 years (I violated my probation period). Needless to say I was very scared. Thanks to Rick Mueller, I do NOT have to serve any jail time, complete any community service, wear any expensive SCRAM device, nor lose my two jobs in the process. He also managed to reduce my court fines and his suggested contact for SR-22 helped me so much. With his help, he managed to prolong my driver's license from being suspended from August 26th, 2021 (when I got my 2nd DUI) until Jan 7, 2022. With the information he provided me, I reinstated my license on January 11th, 2022 (would have been sooner but the DMV closed on weekends). I am driving with a breathalyzer in my car but I can drive anywhere I want not just to school and work. I would recommend this man to anyone of my family or close friends. He is very respectful and was heaven sent. He is quality and worked with my budget. I will never forget what you have done for me and my family, Rick. Thank you so much, Sir!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I was stressing about my court date for a DUI I received a few months back. I was originally going to show up in court with a public defender. I knew someone who had recently got a DUI as well and recommended Rick. A week before my court date I called Rick and he was awesome from the start. He was super helpful and broke everything down for me. He was super responsive to any question or concern I had. He told me what I needed to do to help my case. He represented me in court, I didn't have to step foot in the courthouse. I'm super grateful for Rick, he was able to get absolutely everything...ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING DISMISSED. Now there is no DUI in my record and no fine to pay. .....poof gone......What DUI? Again I HIGHLY recommend Rick Mueller. Thank you Rick, I appreciate you so much.
Rick has been extremely helpful throughout the entire process. After contacting him he provided me with thorough information regarding what to expect and he followed up with all of my questions in a timely manner. I am very thankful that he was able to represent me in my case and help work out a better result.
Rick was efficient and organized. He always kept me informed about my case and provided step by step instructions that were easy to understand. He’s very knowledgeable and was able to answer all my questions. Highly recommend him!
