Several months ago I was slammed with a hefty speeding ticket after attempting to pass an unsafe driver on the highway. I was ordered to pay $250 and had a 6 point mark on my license, which would likely lead to even greater losses due to my insurance. Amy was a truly amazing help throughout the whole process; not only did she handle the entirety of the court processions and remove that stressor, she also managed to negotiate a total negation of the ticket as long as I took a short drivers safety class for a considerably cheaper $70 fee. Without her, I would’ve been at a complete loss, and I can’t thank her for her services enough!!

Amy is amazing at what she does and is full of knowledge. The results she came out with were amazing and I am forever greatful for the work she did for me! If more than 5 stars was an option i would select it.

15 months from start to finish. That’s what it took for my case. At first glance I don’t believe any attorney, if given the chance to look at my case would of thought it’d become an issue. I hired Amy Menzel through a recommendation of word of mouth. After the initial consultation. She gave me a outlook of possibilities. All of which ultimately would be determined by how I handled myself in this domestic case. I should add that my case began in December of 2019. Due to COVID, the pace of or lack there of almost seemed to come to a stop. The hearings were stretched out. All of a sudden everything was done over the phone or web conference. This in my opinion created a handy cap of sorts due to the D.A’s lack of familiarity with my case. It seemed as if they were going over the same issues during every new hearing. The positive information I was attempting to show them sort of got lost in the traffic jam of the court due to the pandemic. With the amount of time Attorney Menzel dedicated to my case because of the aforementioned issues. I started to view this case as if it was almost for charity considering the extreme amount of extra time it took. At no point from start to finish did attorney Menzel ever make me feel secondary. Anytime I sent a question out through email or phone. I would get a quick response. She never promised me a magic deal where all the charges I had pending would simply disappear. But that she could greatly reduce the damage. When it was all said and done I’m at the opinion that I got the absolute best deal anyone in my position could have asked for. I strongly feel that my representation from attorney Menzel exceeded all of my expectations and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone who is in need of her expertise. A++ job. She’s a very smart, classy and all around genuine lady to work with. Thank you for everything!

Amy Menzel from Hammett, Bellin & Oswald assisted with my felony pardon case which was granted in November 2020. I cannot thank her and her staff enough for the life-changing assistance they gave me. They made the entire process easy and kept me thoroughly prepared for the pardon advisory hearing. They are all very professional and knowledgeable. If you are in need of a law firm to assist you with filing a request for a pardon, I would highly recommend Amy Menzel at Hammett, Bellin & Oswald.

Attorney Menzel compassionately listened to the details of my son's case. She worked with the DA to come up with a very creative solution that worked for all parties and provided the best possible outcome for my son. I appreciate how she handled the case.

Last December, I found myself in a less than ideal predicament. A place very unfamiliar to me. From day one, Attorney Menzel was first class. Putting my mind at ease and helping me every step of the way. She played out all possible scenarios, but stayed positive the entire time. If I ever had questions or concerns, she was always there to respond. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. I’m definitely happy that I was referred to Attorney Menzel and don’t believe I would’ve made it through this process without her. It’s a bit cliché to say, but it will be the best money you will ever spend! It was for me. Thank you Attorney Menzel!

Amy Menzel made my legal problems disappear! Before I hired Ms. Menzel, I was facing multiple charges/citations and fines related to property damage, intoxication, and disorderly conduct. Ms. Menzel was able to negotiate with the DA and I only had to pay a fine and property damages. No charges, no community service, no court appearances, nothing on my record, and I didn't even get a ticket. Ms. Menzel and her staff were extremely professional, and dealt with my problem quickly and discretely. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a defense attorney. The service provided was excellent, and I am very satisfied with the outcome.

From first phone call to in office consult was quick. With a very serious criminal complaint possible, Amy explained what could happen, and where I was in the process. From there, future meetings were productive and helpful to clarify and calm nerves. In between, Amy worked tirelessly for the best possible outcome of my case. Her creative thinking changed my outlook from the worst to, "I am so thankful I hired Amy Menzel to be my attorney!"

Ms. Menzel was an absolute pleasure to work with. She made my wife and I feel like more than the average manila folder in the cabinet. She treated us like people and like a friend. She returned my phone call for a consult without delay and met with me about my plight the following day. Given the nature of my case, there was a lot at stake ranging from complete loss of credential and thus employment to the destruction of home life as I knew it. She listened to what I had to say, talked about the specifics as she asked questions and then developed a strategy. Amy took me from a phone call through to completion of a criminal jury trial without any loss of my civil liberties. Her attention to detail and concern for my case and well being was above reproach. During our conversations, she never withheld options or possible outcomes. Whether Amy had good news or bad, she was very forthright with the information she needed to present. Straight to the point, upfront, honest, and compassionate I would describe her as. If I were ever in need of her services again, I would absolutely return as a client of hers. I would and will recommend her to anybody I know in need of her services.

My lawyer, Amy Menzel is amazing! She essentially gave my life back to me. In what was basically an uphill battle, she was able to have my charges reduced in a timely manner. She always kept me up to speed on everything that was happening with my case, and while my situation was quite complex, she never hesitated to push on to get the results we all needed. We are grateful for Amy and her firm!

I would strongly recommend Amy Menzel to anyone seeking the best of the best. Amy was very good at communicating me even outside of business hours with answers to any questions I may of had. She was very thorough in explaining every step of my court appearances and when explaining things she was very patient with me. From start to finish I am super pleased with her and her services. Worth every penny!

Attorney Menzel have helped me out so much and have helped me stayed out of jail from having potentially 40 years down to just 3 years worth of probation. She's a lawyer that cares for you and wants to work with you to help you out the best she can. The law firm and everyone in it was very polite and respectful towards me and I felt comfortable at all times being there. I would recommend this place to anyone who is in need of a lawyer.
