Alex Ktenas, is by far the best attorney I’ve ever had the pleasure of hiring. He got my second DUI reduced to a reckless, with minimal community service and minimal fines. Right off the bat, the moment I hung up the phone, Alex started my case and during the whole case, my license was never suspended, a small miracle for a second DUI. Above all else, I was treated with dignity, respect and professionalism. You are not only hiring an experienced and knowledgeable attorney but one that is VERY well respected among his peers, prosecutors and Judges. Alex, leverages his experience and working relationships, to his and your advantage. Highly recommended. You won’t find a better DUI attorney.
