Amazing DUI lawyer - got 3 DUIs within 6 months reduced to 1 OVI with no jail time! I could not recommend this lawyer more. I had 3 duis within 3 months. He worked as hard as possible and got the best possible result. 1 yr license suspension, 2 yrs probation, no jail time, 1 ovi. I had 1 prior that got knocked down to physical control 5 years ago. He did an amazing job answering any questions I had. He doesn’t volunteer information, so you do have to ask questions and make sure you ask for phone calls. He always responds and always finds time to take the requested phone calls. I am so thankful for all his work!

An attorney who listens and cares After being charged with a misdemeanor charge of Harrassment via Communications I hired attorney Joe Kunkel of the Luftman Law Group in Columbus Ohio. Being from out of state my initial communication with Mr. Kunkel were via cell phone. Even over the phone I had the impression that he was truly listening to me and was going to do the best he could to help me. He appeared to have good communication with the prosecutor and both agreed to postpone the case in order to have a “cooling “ off period. When it came time for the court appearance I met Mr. Kunkel for the very first time. He informed me that I was going to be given a fine and probation. I explained to him the hardship that would create for me as well as how unfair that sentence would be. He listened to me and agreed. He immediately went to the prosecutor and explained the situation in detail. The end result was NO probation and a fine that was less than if I had been given a less than 15 mph speeding ticket! It was obvious that both the prosecutor as well as the magistrate had a great deal of respect for Mr. Kunkel. When he spoke, they listened. This is an attorney that not only genuinely listens to his clients but he cares a great deal for them as well. It’s more than just a job. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a top notch attorney.
