Lyle Dresbold of David Shrager and Associates handled my case very professionally, was prompt, and courteous as well. Handled my case with care and fought for the minimum sentence at trial. Highly recommended.

Incredible job! Lyle did the lord's work.

Thanks for all your help Lyle!

Veronica was all class and was very professional in presenting the case.

Lyle was my attorney in Allegheny County Courts. He was top notch. He listened to my concerns and fought hard for a fair plea for me. Thanks Lyle for all you help.

I had Veronica as my Attorney and she did a great job! She’s a very well rounded and understanding person. Dealing with the people within the office was a breeze as well, and they were all very participant in dealing with any situation or questions/concerns that may apply! 10/10 would recommend.

Thank you, great representation

Had a great experience with Lyle and the rest of the team. He was able get my charge dismissed and I couldn’t be happier with the result.

My son was arrested for failure to register for Megan’s law. I was so worried and had trouble finding an experienced lawyer nearby who would take this on case. When I called Attorney David J. Shrager’s office I was immediately connected to a lawyer who was able to describe to me the legal process and give me answers and a direction. I felt so reassured I hired ATTORNEY VERONICA BRESTENSKY immediately and am so thankful she was in our corner. Since I live 2 hours away I was concerned they wouldn’t take the case but thankfully they did and Attorney Brestensky was there for every hearing and took time to review what was happening with myself and my incarcerated son prior the hearing. She was always available and responded promptly to any calls. From the moment I spoke with her on the phone thru the entire process, I had complete faith that she would fight diligently and be able to help us. I am so Thankful for Attorney Brestensky and highly recommend her. If you need a lawyer she will provide excellent legal council as well compassionate step by step updates. Hire her and you’ll be relieved to have her as your advocate.

Veronica Brestensky takes charge immediately and was very professional with my case. She answers any question or concern you have with confidence. Thank you so much.

They did really amazing

Veronica and the rest of the staff have been outstanding. Since the evening We first called Veronica she has always made me and my family feel like a priority. Any legal matter can seem terrifying when you don’t understand the law. Having an attorney like Veronica in our corner allowed us to feel a degree of comfort that we can’t even begin to express enough gratitude for. My family and I would recommend Veronica to anyone in need of a solid knowledgeable attorney who is also caring and compassionate.

Since day one I have felt like so much more than just a case number, thank you Veronica so very much.

Best place to start is the beginning. From my initial point of contact with this firm, the care and service recieved has been incomparable. Every single person wholeheartedly gave their best effort to make sure all issues were resolved above and beyond expectation. Thank you Attorney Shrager for having such a fine and respected group of legal professionals. I highly recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal assistance. You will not be disappointed.

I am very pleased with the work of David Shrager defense attorneys.They did exactly what they said they would,and just knowing they were on my side was a big relief.I highly recommend them!

Shrager defense attorneys is the best firm that I have ever worked with in the Pittsburgh region. Dave and Lyle accomplished every goal in an efficient time. Thank you so much for making an enormous difference in my life!

Veronica and the Attorneys were a giant help and more than worth it.

Thanks for your help appreciate it

Thanks Lyle and dave awesome attorneys

Shelley Duff handled my traffic case and I was found not guilty! I am very grateful for Shrager law, and highly recommend their whole team!

Wow where do I begin ! I am a single mother and I was out of my mind when I heard my son 19 yrs old got arrested & was in a prison a real adult jail ! My baby who’s never been in trouble in his life ! What do I do ? Where do I even start ! And we found out his hearing was Monday and it was already Friday night . My sister patty says , sit Janiece , first let’s find a Lawyer ! A night mare bigins more so ! I pull up the best lawyers in Pa and get lots , I read over a hour and always looking at David Shrager ‘ & I remember him on a news story as well .. I start reading the reviews and still was not convinced because my family is telling me he’s to high up all he cares about is money ! So I said I am going to call ! I got voice messager left my messages as I was upset crying & They called me right back ! The lady on the other line speaks to me and says, first let me tell you it’s going to be okay ! I’m here to help so tell me , I told her everything and he had really serious charges..and late as well . She tells me what’s what and prices and I was not happy about the price but guess what , what’s my son worth ? It’s not about the money . It was about how kind they were to me , how they let me talk and never talk down to me and they didn’t brush me off like other lawyers I talk to .. The firm cared even David I had talk to!! They made sure I knew everything and kept me in the loop of it all , guess what ? I never had to call them once to ask anything I knew it all.. They’re great lawyers on point with everything and they donot treat people like a check but like real human beings with real problems , they have a heart ❤️. First preliminary hearing on other side case got postponed once @ they tried to make it for weeks later while my son sat on a high bond , nope was not happening next week was our new hearing already , then they was asking for another postponement, nope Shragers team was not having it . They do some talking and my lawyer waves me to follow him out in the haul , and guess what ?! MY SONS CHARGES ARE ALL DISMISSED !! Omg I was in shock .. I would NEVER ever go with any other firm in my life !! & I am telling You if you got family and you love them, & one day you need a good awesome attorney David Shager is your choice hands down! I can’t brag more about how great they all are at the firm !!! Thank You Veronica ,Bill, and David Shrager for all your work and forgot no notice at all ! You all did a awesome job there’s no words none !! My experience with the firm was out of this world something that I never seen before they are smart and intelligent and they know what they’re doing !!! Sorry so long but I can go on and on that’s how happy I am , if I would had , had a PD or other lawyer my outcome would be , my son would still be sitting in jail “ on the other sides postponements... thank you !!

Thank you lyle and David for a great result.

I can't say enough good things about Dave's office. Erin helped to ease my anxiety prior to going in front of the judge, reviewing my case in detail and speaking w/Veronica, who represented me, on my behalf prior to my consultation. Veronica was wonderful, down to earth, and easy to talk to. She explained things in a way that I could understand. She was able to get a better outcome for me than we had originally anticipated. Not only are the staff professional but they treat you like a decent human being that just made a mistake and do not treat you less than. You can get a defense attorney anywhere but if you want a team that validates your concerns and eases your anxiety all with an air of kindness this is the firm for you!
Thank you Veronica and Erin, you ladies helped keep my self worth intact through a stressful time. I can not give you two enough accolades!!!

Shrager did an awesome job with my case, honestly it couldn't have been any better. Thank you mr. Shrager, you have my respect and my gratitude sir.

I had a hearing in regards to a case that I did not actually commit the crime I was accused of. I called shrager defense attorneys and Lyle Dresbold esq. took my case and assured me everything would be taken care of and it was to a T. He went above and beyond what I expected an attorney would do and for my case completely withdrawn without any consequences. If I had not hired Mr.Dresbold the truth would not have been discovered and I would have been falsely punished. I would recommend Lyle Dresbold esq. for any civil or legal matters.

Couldn't be happier. Saved my career. Lyle is beyond my expectations.

Great law firm, appreciate them for everything they’ve done.

Lyle did a great job helping me with my case highly recommend

Shelley is an AllStar! She saved my license from being suspended for 2 years. Tremendous and professional with everyone involved from the courts to the cops. Very caring and it was like she was fighting for herself. A huge shoutout to Erin, the best Paralegal in the world, who grabbed my case by the horns and found out absolutely everything that I needed to do to be in the best possible position for my court date. Outstanding personality and unrivaled compassion from both!!!!!!!!!

Attorney Cory Ricci helped me out so much with my case and he even answered my phone calls on a weekend, also Erin in the office answered any questions I had and was very helpful. Great people!

I was incorrectly charged with serious crimes that weren’t warranted whatsoever. Lyle listened to all sides of every story, and used his experience, expertise and AMAZING negotiating ability to get ALL the major charges dropped and a plea deal of disorderly conduct and paying a fine.

I was pulled over on a SXS crossing a road and was facing driving under DUI suspension operating on state highways which is 60-90 days in jail automatically. I called this law firm and was represented by Corry Ricci and he got me off and I ended up with a small fine and no jail time or further suspension. I would highly recommend this form to anyone. Great people and very knowledgeable and up front.

If I could have given this firm more stars, I certainly would have! I was faced, after a third DUI, with significant jail time. My case was handled by Shelly. She was by my side beginning with my appearance at the Magistrate all the way to my sentencing. With her diligence and commitment to defend me, I was fortunate to receive a period of house arrest. Shelly fought hard for me to get the best possible outcome. I would be remiss if I didn't mention Erin, Shrager Defense Paralegal. She reached out to personally on several occasions to assuage my anxiety and was instrumental in composing a rock solid sentencing memo. I felt like I was being represented by friends through this entire experience. I would also like to mention the courteous staff that answered my calls and relayed messages. I never felt like I was being judged or 'putting anyone out'. I stand by my affirmation that this is a phenomenal legal team.

I was represented by Jennifer Popovich in my case and she overcame my expectations. She was very professional and courteous. At the end of case had everything dismissed without even stepping foot in courtroom.If you want better then expected results call her at Shrager Defense

Jennifer P. !! Thank you! Got a dismissal! Awesome service! Hire her! Get you some freedom!

I can’t even begin to say how thankful I am to have found the Shrager Law Firm. Especially, Jennifer Popovich. I was facing a very serious and life altering charge. Jennifer is on top of her game, intelligent, and understanding. She talked to me like a person and understood my anxieties. My case was dismissed 14 days after being charged. Thank you so much to Jennifer and the Shrager Law firm.

as soon as i realized i needed an attorney,,i called Shrager Defense,,and Dave answered the phone on the spot. Explained my situation and he set me up with Lyle Dresbold,,and from there, Lyle handled my case and i was cleared after first hearing. I would highly consider Shrager Defense team & Lyle for your attorney needs,,5star rating!!!!

Thank you for everything Lyle...very happy with the outcome.

My experience with this firm was absolutely fantastic! Cory Ricci represented me and did an amazing job. I received a way lower sentence than what I previously thought was coming and I owe all the thanks to you! Overall, I would rate the Shrager Defense Attorney team with a 10/10. Thanks again for all your help.

I had a DUI case and decided to call Shrager for representation. My lawyer, Shelley Duff, never treated my case like it was just another number. She answered every text/call promptly and worked very closely with me throughout the whole process. She was there every step of the way and made sure I knew all the options I had available to me. We were able to get several charges withdrawn and the most serious charge dropped down to a lesser charge. I am very thankful to have had her professional advise and encouragement. I highly recommend Shelley Duff and the Shrager Defense Team to anyone who needs legal advice or representation.

Excellent service. I was looking at a year license loss and jail time. David Shrager got me only a fine ! Best lawyer !

Corey Ricci was fantastic. Corey was on time and explained everything very thoroughly. He got us in and out in no time. Erin Melegari the paralegal that i delt with throughout the 8 month case i went through was hands down one of the nicest people ive ever delt with. Erin was always so nice even when i knew she was swamped with other cases/individuals. David Schrager law firm is blessed to have Erin.

Thanks did what you were supposed to do

The best lawyers in town. Llyle is the man you want by your side to fight for justice. He's a true warrior, very professional and approachable. As an African woman I have experienced so much unfairness within the justice system and Llyle took my case and fought with me to the very end like a family member. This was a 4 year case, unfair, traumatic; I'll never forget Llyle's commitment, loyalty and perseverance to see it to the very end. We WON! What a relief. Thank you Llyle, thank you team Shrager Defense Attorneys.

Thank you Lyle - very educated attorney explains things very well - he got me the results I wanted !!!! Highly recommended

Today was a time that I can say I will never forget and a time that Ended in relief.My grandson had a bogus gun charge on him at the age of seventeen.It has been six months of many sleepless nights.I needed a lawyer but did not know where to start looking.After research I decided to turn to the law firm of David Shager.I made the right decision.I met Jen Popovich.Jen is a very thorough lawyer.
Today he was found not guilty and all charges were dropped..Never hesitate when hiring Jen Popovich..She will get the job done for her client..Jen Popovich definitely knows her stuff.

Lyle did exactly what I needed and was very professional. Pleasure to have him on my side!

Thank you for all of your help!

Best attorney and service hands down most empathetic staff and very thorough!

Shrager Defense is a criminal law factory with absolutely zero concern about small time players. Looking for help on a DUI or two? Go with a public defender and save your money.

The experience was nothing less than perfect. My attorneys name was Lyle Dresbold. He was really professional and helped me get the best deal. If you run into any legal problems in the state of Pennsylvania he’s definitely the guy to call.. Thanks again Mr.Dresbold

Lyle Dresbold is the best DUI attorney in the State of PA. I was facing my second DUI. I was told by other lawyers that I had a bad case and would receive a misdemeanor, loss of license as well as house arrest and/or prison. This was an extremely bad situation and if convicted I would have been prevented from entering Canada to visit family. Lyle took my case and gave me hope. Lyle worked diligently and was able to obtain an outcome that exceeded my expectations. All charges were withdrawn. If you are in any type of DUI situation, do not hesitate to retain the services of Lyle Dresbold. Lyle and Erin are wonderful. They kept me updated during the process and truly worked on my behalf. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

I was represented by Jennifer Popovich from Shrager Defense in September and I cannot say enough nice things about the resolution to my case! Once I reached out to David Shrager I immediately started working with Erin at their office throughout the process. She was beyond helpful and assisted me every step of the way to the fullest extent. All the way up to my hearing I was so nervous of what my outcome could/would be in the courtroom. The outcome to my situation could change my life in so many ways from one mistake that was made. Upon meeting Jennifer I immediately felt more at ease as she was very knowledgeable and confident. Seeing this aspect to her from the start, I knew I could trust her fully with my case. The result to my case was nothing that I could have even imaged and the results were more than favorable to me. For the first time since my case started in the middle of the summer, I finally feel like myself again with all of the stress from my case behind me. I owe them more than words and I'm so happy they represented me during this difficult time in my life! Such an amazing law firm!!!!!!

I can honestly say Shrager Defense Attorneys are hands down the best at there craft lyle dresbold went above and beyond what i thought he was going to do he predicted it and it came true honestly a miracle worker and the wonderful woman at the front desk who greets you when you walk in you immediately know your in the right place her kindness and cheeriness immediately makes you not be nervous about what your going through and makes you know that you are in the right place Shrager Defense Attorneys best law office in the Pittsburgh area

Great experience!! Thanks Lyle!!

Lyle took care of everything I needed in a timely manner. Worked well with everyone in the process. I would recommend him every time!!!

Charges dropped minimum fine. Thanks lyle

An amazing team. I walked in and was made to feel like family. This team of Atty’s and staff are simply wonderful people. They are in it to win it. I would like to personally thank Lyle Dresbold, his ability and skillful management of my case are the sole reason for my smile today.
Thank you, everyone at ;
David Shrager Attorneys

Here's some friendly advice David. Drop the solid gold, diamond inserted Rolex from your billboards. Looks gaudy and insults your client base, overtly pompous. Also, forgo the too tough guy attitude in your commercials. Bad look, we all know your no tough guy. Sad.

The best in Pittsburgh!

Best lawyer in town

The Shrager Law Firm of Pittsburgh treated my case with the utmost professionalism, legal talent, and courtroom experience. The Shrager team, including Erin Melegari & Lyle Dresbold, helped expedite my case to a successful dismissal. The support, understanding, and attention by the Shrager team was invaluable to my personal strength during this most difficult time. In my opinion, this is the go-to criminal defense law firm in Pittsburgh.

Veronica and Erin were amazing, charges were reduced to a single non-tragic violation and no fine. Extremely happy with the results, would recommend to anyone who finds themselves in need of an attorney.

Thank you Lyle and Erin!!

Thanks, Lyle, Erin and the rest of the office were excellent.

With the help of the David Shrager Law Firm, I just came out of a 10 month nightmare. My career and reputation were negatively impacted from a false accusation, but working with Lyle and Erin helped clear my name from any long term repercussions. They are all very professional and comforting and are great at making you feel assured that they have your back. 100% recommended!

Thanks Lyle Dresbold and the team for a great result.

Lyle Dresbold was responsive to all of our questions and concerns and able to negotiate a deal that best suited our families needs. We are so greatful to have had him represent us.

Lyle was awesome. He cut through the inaccurate info relayed abt me and my charges were dismissed

Recently got summary charges and i was clueless what do with it.I can consulted multiple attorneys and got more worried about handing things. Gladly i reached to David Sharger's personal number based on google reviews and he picked up my call instantly and directed me to contact his senior attorney Veronica. I scheduled an appointment with Veronica and after the first meet, i literally forgot that i have a summary report till the court date. She handled like a pro ! Erin on the other was very supportive to me in answering all my queries and responding my mails. She gave proper directions and things to do to get rid of this charges. Erin and Veronica with their confidence and approach(and of course Veronica's bright smile), i can say you are not in trouble any more.

The ABSOLUTE best lawyer in Pittsburgh! David and his entire team are compassionate, caring & the best in the business. When say “don’t be scared, be prepared” you will be as prepared as you could be with David.

Had Shelley duff was amazing had two felony charges she got both dropped at the preliminary hearing I would recommend her to anyone thank you again from Devonte

I cannot say enough good things about Shelly and Erin and how professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate they were as they guided my son through the aftermath of a DUI. Not only is that nightmare behind him, but the firm's fees were extremely reasonable and worth every penny. I would give these ladies 100 stars if I could and recommend them to anyone trying to figure out if this is the correct firm for them. Many, many thanks and kudos to all!!

Pam

P.S. Just saw the post that said the good reviews are by employees or family members. For the record, I am neither and every word of my post is the truth.

Wow. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A GREAT LAWYER. You life can be so greatly effected by choice of attorney and you CAN NOT find better representation than these amazing attorneys

THANK YOU LYLE!

Unfortunately, my family has needed the services of Shrager Defense Attorneys on more than one occasion.  However, very fortunately, each time their services have provided us with extremely positive outcomes.  David, Veronica, Erin and the whole team, with their expert knowledge of the legal processes in Allegheny County and the counties in close proximity to Pittsburgh, consistently gave my family professional advice and knowledgeable guidance through each legal issue.

I’m hopeful we never require their services again.  But, should another legal issue arise in the future, I would not hesitate to reach for my phone and call them for help, knowing they’ll answer the call anytime day or night.

R. Morgan

David Shrager and his associates make such a great team. I specifically worked with Erin and Lyle for my case. I was dealing with a second DUI, and I was scared of what my potential consequences could be. Erin did a great job always informing me of what each hearing was and what to expect , and Lyle represented me in court. Lyle went above and beyond my expectations and got me a way better plea deal than I could have ever of imagined. I would highly recommend this law office as no matter who you work with, they are all very knowledgeable and want to help you the best way that they can! Thank you Erin and Lyle for all that you did to help me!

Attorney Shrager saved my sons job!! Top attorney in pittsburgh. My son was charged with felonies he got him just a fine, no criminal record and saved his job. Highest recommendation

Do not hire this firm all the 5* reviews are either employee or possibly even paid In my opinion.... for a dui they are not knowledged I got ripped off and as the other dude said they do bare minimum and charge a lot.... (I wish I listened to him)... l fired them do not waste your time with this joke of a firm you are way better off with a pub defender or even self rep cuz that's what you are getting

I can’t even begin to thank the staff at Shrager Defense enough! From the first phone call (with David, direct to his cell phone), to Erin’s kindness in our time of need, to Veronica’s brilliant approach and passion for her clients.

What happened to us was a shame. Realizing that you’re not really innocent until proven guilty is a slap in the face by our judicial system. Veronica and the staff at Shrager Defense made me and my family feel safe and secure, consistently communicating with us. In the end, the case was seen as what it was - and dismissed.

Thank you so much Lyle for all your help. Thanks again. Recommend you to anyone. Great result.

Excellent representation of my criminal matter, reasonable cost and personable from start to finish, would recommend to anyone in need of representation

Thanks for your help

I started out my case very panicked and Shrager Law Firm completely set my mind at ease. Veronica, Lyle and Robert were all so nice and really fought for me. The outcome was far better than I could have ever hoped. I would recommend them 100% to anyone!

Lyle Dresbold was very helpful and made everything go smooth.

Shelley Duff, Esquire was excellent in defending against a traffic violation, and even got the violation dismissed! She was very professional in every step of the way. Highly recommended!

Thanks so much for qll your help. Highly recommend!

Veronica was such a very friendly person that seriously help me with my case she done a fantastic job! Helping my case come to an end I will definitely recommend her if your looking for a Good Lawyer

Veronica was amazing! She is very friendly and efficient. She let me know exactly what was going on every step of the way. Erin was also great and super nice. She called me and kept me on the same page. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to get through my circumstances without these two amazing ladies. I can’t say enough nice things. Best experience I ever had with a law firm and I’ve had a few over the years!!

Thanks for the great service!

Lyle was my attorney and did a great job, thanks!
