About Us

As a former Ohio Highway Patrol police officer who later became a criminal defense attorney in Zanesville, I understand from both sides how criminal justice works in Central Ohio. I also know how stressful and frightening it can be to be charged with a crime. Your reputation, career, and most of all, your freedom, could be on the line. The power of law enforcement is focused against you. You need someone to stand by you, explain what’s going on, and stand up to the police and prosecution.

While every case is different, and past results can’t guarantee future outcomes, I can guarantee my full commitment to your defense. At Tabler Law Criminal Defense in Zanesville, I examine every angle, prepare thoroughly, and argue each case with precision and purpose. I’m known in the courtroom—and in the community—for putting in the work, standing firm, and fighting for my clients’ rights. Unlike many defense lawyers, I’m not afraid to take your case to trial, and I’ll never advise you to agree to a bad deal. I handle everything from OVI/DUI, drug possession, and other misdemeanors to the most serious felony charges, like murder, manslaughter, and rape. Whatever you’re accused of doing, I’m ready to defend you.

“I founded Tabler Law because I believe everyone deserves a defense that fights as hard for their rights as they would for their own family. We’re not just lawyers – we’re advocates, strategists, and allies during life’s most challenging moments.”

Zach Tabler

Founding Attorney

Before becoming a defense attorney in Zanesville, I served as an officer with the Ohio Highway Patrol, gaining firsthand experience with how law enforcement investigates cases, gathers evidence, and prepares reports. That background gives me a unique perspective when building a defense strategy. I know how the other side operates—and I use that insight every day to challenge unfair accusations, review the evidence, and protect my clients’ rights.

At Tabler Law, my mission is simple: to stand up for people when they need it most and ensure every client receives a fair fight in court. For every case I take, I prepare as if it’s definitely going to trial. That way, you and I are ready for whatever happens. Even when the case settles, thorough preparation often gives me leverage in negotiations and helps me secure better outcomes, such as helping clients avoid prison.

I understand how criminal charges could be affecting you and your family. Let me take the burden of preparing your defense to make the experience less overwhelming. I work hard to build trust so you and I can work together effectively. You can reach out to me whenever you have a question or need an update and expect a quick response.
