As someone who was navigating the criminal justice system for the first time in my 60’s, facing false accusations, I was overwhelmed and anxious about the entire process. However, my experience with Wilkerson and Mulligan was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I reached out, I was met with compassion, understanding, and a robust defense strategy. Forest Wilkerson demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge and a fierce dedication to justice. She was not only experienced and knowledgeable but also incredibly tough when it cam to defending my case in court. She took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring that I was fully informed and comfortable with the proceedings. What stood out to me the most was her commitment to truth and integrity. In a system that can often feel impersonal and daunting, she fought tirelessly to ensure that my side of the story was heard and that my rights were protested. Her efforts resulted in the best possible outcome of my case, and I am profoundly grateful for her support during one of the most challenging time s of my life. For anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation, falsely accused and unsure of where to turn, I wholeheartedly recommend Forest Wilkerson. She will provide you with not only legal representation but also a sense of security and hope when you need it the most

Ed Baum is the first lawyer I've engaged for an injury case. With his help, I managed to gain the maximum settlement available. He was a great listener and extremely knowledgeable about the law and the process. I highly recommend.

Forest represented me in a DV case and she was there to guide me, support me and most importantly she reached the best resolution for my case by getting me the minimum restitution fines and lowered my charges to lesser counts on the DV charges the DA was attempting to charge me with. Forest even had some of the charges dropped indefinitely so they wouldn't appear on my record. With that said, if you're looking for a successful outcome with a positive experience in the most scariest times of your life in a criminal case or hearing you must consult with her law firm.

I contacted Forest after reading reviews. When we met, she was thoughtful, thoroughly explained what would happen should I decide to hire her, and stayed in contact with me throughout the months. I am thankful for her expertise and would highly recommend her.

My name is Rich and I just faced the most difficult situation that I have ever faced in my entire life, and I have faced many!! I am a 50 year old with a relentless passion to help others in business, community, outreach organizations, or even changing a tire on the side of the road for someone that looks quite capable. I put myself in a situation where I ended up being arrested for a few very serious crimes that would have affected me and my life style for my remaining days to a very disturbing extent. Not only did Forest work relentlessly on my case keeping me informed every step of the way, she represented me confidently and diligently knowing all aspects of all laws pertaining to the crimes in my case. Bringing those to the courtroom against a TEAM of 3 district attorneys with at least 1 other working against me behind the scenes along with a retired nonchalant Judge that held her back from allowing my witnesses to testify in my behalf and not allowing evidence proving my innocence to the Jurists because he was on a schedule to go on vacation, she also decimated a Sergeants testimony to the crime and tore the accuracy of the police report to shreds. This all resulted in a unanimous decision of 12 jurors to come back with a NOT GUILTY plea in my favor. After the delivery of the verdict, we stayed in the hall talking with all of the jurors for a short period and the foreman spoke with us for over an hour. He stated that they knew they were coming back with a not guilty within a half hour but some of that time was spent trying to figure out who the foreman was going to be and bathroom breaks. In the end, the foreman said they spent the next 3 hours trying to prove if there was any guilt at all that had been presented by the district attorneys or the witnesses for the victim including the victim from their testimonies...... They could not. Thank you Forest for helping me at the most dire time of my life and putting in late nights and weekends of work around your awesome husband and daughters. I know you did all that. I would without hesitation put all of my confidence into Forest Wilkerson for any charge that is filed from "THE PEOPLE".......lastly I want to thank "The REAL PEOPLE" that Forest was amazing at picking for my Jury while fighting against a Judge and team of DA's while trying to pick them to get a fair trial! You are the best! Rich

Wow what can I say about Forest. Not only was she awesome to deal with, but she fought hand over fist for me. I was in a very bad position being charged with some outrageous allegations. Sat down with forest and she explained my options. Ended up hiring her and she did not disappoint. Had 10 felonies that I was being charged with and not only did she get them all dropped but she did not take any crap and ended up getting them all dismissed before I was even out of my preliminary hearing. Hopefully never need her again but if I do I would come running back.

Forest helped me with what was perhaps the most terrifying experience of my life, At age 48, I was accused of Domestic Violence, facing two felony charges and one misdemeanor charge. Very severe for a first time offender, and I was terrified of the prospect of spending a long time in state prison. Forest was able to ease my fears with her extensive experience with my type of case. Just knowing I had an attorney of this caliber to prove my innocence, was a wonderful feeling. I knew that my case was in the hands of someone who would get things done and prove to the justice department that I was innocent if this horrible accusation. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome, as I was never formally charged with the crime I was accused of. Forest's work prior to the first heating was instrumental in that outcome. Her ability to get through the beaurocracy, and get straight to the DA hanfdking the case, face to face, helped insure I was never charged with a crime. So, thanks to Forests help, i n very had to deal with a lengthy, and expensive, series of courts appearances and possibly even a trial. Forest asked me to desc I e exactly what happened the day I was arrested and what was different about that day, and I couldn't come up with an answer because I knew I had done nothing wrong and that was one of the reasons my confusion and stress was so high. I couldn't answer that question and at first I knew Forest was skeptical about my story, but with time and a better understanding of who the accuser was, Forest knew right away why I couldn't answer that question and that the other person was the problem and not me. From there it was just a matter of time for my innocence to be proven, which was luckily never needed. I owe Forest a lot for taking my case and believing in me eniugh to put me at ease and lower my stress to manageable levels. She helped walk me through what was happening and what would happen and didn't make me feel like a criminal who just needed "reasonable doubt". I would recommend Forest's services to anyone who was in the kind of situation I was in, or for anything she specializes in. My record remains clean today, thanks to Forest's help and that's worth so much more than any fee she could have charged.

I can not say enough about Forest. I was blindsided by a very difficult domestic violence case brought on by my ex-wife and our 13 year old daughter. While the accusations were motivated by many other factors regarding my ex wife, I was facing the possibility of not seeing my daughters for 3 years or more...and I had no idea what to do or who to turn to. After reading several other online reviews, I thought Forest was a perfect fit for my case. And I was 100% right. Not only did she absolutely command the court room during our trial, but she did so in a professional and confident manner that could simply not be competed with. And after she laid out the facts in a very clear and concise manner, the judge ruled without question in our favor. Thank you so much Forest, I will forever be grateful!

After reading online reviews and consulting other lawyers decided to hire Forest. W. And it was the best decision i have made in the last couple of years , she was very helpful and informative she was always there to answer any questions or help solve any issues that came up during the case, even with the DA giving us a hard time she still managed to get me the best deal i could have gotten.She even appeared at court for me after the case was closed at no charge.

Back in 2012 i was charged with some very serious crimes. Looking at life in prison i met Forest and she went straight to work on my case uncovering the truth and making sure i did not get bullied in the court room. She literally saved my life! Again in 2016 i tried to clean my record and it was proving to be very difficult so i called forest again and with so much on my mind with having a 3 month premature baby in the hospital she put my mind to ease and fought for me in the court room so i could be with my family at this difficult time. I highly recommend forest to everyone i can because your life is not something to gamble with.
