I feel very fortunate to have had Robert Sussman represent me in a criminal matter in Columbia County. Not only was he able to get the charge dismissed, he made me feel like he truly cared about me. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced, empathetic attorney.

Mr. Sussman represented my son on a traffic accident summons. While minor in nature, for a college student it was major stress. Mr. Sussman skillfully took all this stress away and handle a court proceeding with my son with such professional skill. His knowledge of the law coupled with his professionalism, integrity and human respect and kindness was overwhelming. For a young man who never had to appear in court this was comforting to both him and an appreciative parent, his dad. I could not more highly recommend Me. Sussman.

저는 시민권자로, 한국에서 미국에 온지 얼마 안되는 아내와 결혼을 하고, 아내의 결혼 영주권을 신청했습니다. 철저하고 세심한 서류 검토, 진행 과정에 대한 빠른 업데이트, 그리고 전화와 이메일과 SNS 를 통한 소통과 배려로 짧은 시간 내 영주권을 얻게 되었습니다. 영주권 신청부터 영주권을 받기 까지, 김원호 변호사님의 변함없는 정성과 헌신이 있었기에 가능한 일이었다고 생각합니다. 김원호 변호사님의 리더십과 탁월한 서비스에 다시 한번 감사드립니다.

In regards to both my cases the outcome was fantastic where they were both thrown out. First meeting Dan and his assistant Mia I felt immediately welcomed not only to mention the office is in a prime Location. Along the year duration (rocky roads) of my case I was always reminded every single time, the prior day and was told specific details of what was needed on my part to get the outcome we desired. I personally am writing a detailed review not just because We ended up with a good outcome but because I couldn’t have felt more secure and comfortable with a team such as Dans.If I ever was in this predicament again without a doubt Mr.Pallen is on speed Dial !

I was referred to Buckley Patterson after my car accident by our insurance adjuster. I was hesitant at first about getting an attorney because of my tendency to "lean away" from confrontation. John was very warm and able to empathize with me while at the same time helping me feel safe to look at the bigger picture. John is very relatable, has outstanding knowledgeable about procedure, and most notably, he checked in with me regularly about the case and made sure I was prepared before each proceeding. He maintains a strong personal work ethic. I would feel great recommending them to all my friends and family in the future.

I was referred to Buckley Patterson by someone that works with them while at my barber. I decided to give them a try after I couldn't get a hold of the insurance company myself... best decision I could have ever made. John and Phillip made this process so smooth and easy for me. They explained the whole process every step of the way and were constantly in contact. I never had to deal with anyone else just directly with them. If you are looking for an injury attorney I highly recommend them. Just jump on a call with John and once you see how well he explains everything you'll feel as comfortable as I did having them represent you.

There are not enough words for me to describe the wonderful defense work of Mr. Wolf and his team. The case involved a DWI conviction of a family member with disabilities. Mr. Wolf and his defense team took the time to listen to our plea and then explain what he believed to be the outcome. It was this person's first offense and he had little understanding of the law. Mr. Wolf worked with the prosecution to make them understand these circumstances. The punishment lead to a small fine and a class to make the understanding clear to my family member that DWI was not to be tolerated. Case closed and we can now move on with life. Thank you Jason Wolf and Team!!! Highly highly recommended!

After our 15 yo son was arrested on several felony charges, we were connected with Yusuf by a friend who has experience in the NYC juvenile justice system. Yusuf worked collaboratively with us, listened to our ideas, and supported us throughout this extremely stressful time. He was good at explaining all the steps of the process (several times) as the language and procedures were unfamiliar to us. He tried to minimize costs and charged a reasonable retainer. Working collaboratively, we were able to have a "best case scenario" outcome for our son. I highly recommend Yusuf.

I hired Robb after having 2 prior attorneys for a highly contested custody matter. Robb took my case on a fairly short notice and immediately got to work. My case had several layers that had to be peeled back and was complex to say the least. Robb was able to get up to speed very quickly on the facts of the case as well as my concerns surrounding the matter. Robb was always prepared for any motions that had to be heard as well as during the trial which was a seven day trial. He truly wants the best outcome for his client and he shows that through his attention to detail and open communication. Robb has a good presence in he court room and commands respect during cross examination. Robb has a good grasp on processes, and uses great emotional intelligence. I will hire Robb again for any legal matter that fall under his areas of representation.

I highly recommend Mr. Scott Kimberly to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation, especially regarding child custody matters. He has been an invaluable asset in championing my son's custody rights. His adeptness in cross-examination, direct approach, and unwavering work ethic have played a pivotal role in addressing the injustices my son encountered within the legal system. Mr. Kimberly is not only dedicated to securing favorable outcomes for his clients but also prioritizes ethical practices and “refrains from exploiting them financially.” His commitment to his clients' welfare extends beyond legal representation; as a father himself, he genuinely advocates for the best interests of the children involved. If you're in search of a lawyer who will fervently uphold fathers' rights and relentlessly pursue justice, Mr. Kimberly is unquestionably the right choice. I am deeply grateful for his expertise, dedication, and unwavering support throughout this painful and challenging journey for our son, grandchildren and extended family.

In the time of beginning the process of divorcing it was clear that I need representation and help to ensure I received what was fair to me under the law. When I first met him he made sure to come up, introduce himself and say "We are going to make sure you are taken care of." Any question I had about documentation, process, language was answered and explained while going through the 5 month process to reach the finish line. If you want the best, look no further.

I was referred to John through legal shield and was skeptical. First impressions are everything and he quickly changed my perception. Not only did he work with me and successfully win my case to keep my daughter safe but him and his paralegal kept me up to date with everything that was going on without me having to reach out. If I would have retained him 13 years ago it would have saved me a ton of stress and I would not have dealt with the issue at hand. John superseded any expectations that I had for a lawyer and I am forever grateful to him and his firm.

I was arrested for a DUI after driving home from a double shift. I was extremely tired and found myself taking a wrong turn on the way home which led me to drive upon a DUI check point. After being arrested I contacted Mr. Mussetto late at night and not only did he answer but also showed up the next morning for first appearance. Through the entire process he was by my side giving me sound advise and keeping me informed with developments and court dates. We ended up taking my case to court and his preparation with the facts of the case and the not so prepared handling of the situation by the arresting officer and prosecutor allowed him to soundly have the jury deliver a NOT GUILTY verdict. The best decision I ever made was calling John when I faced the most difficult time in my life.

His knowledge of the law is impeccable and in one particular instance, within two days of hiring him at that, he used that knowledge of the law to stop a situation happening.

The day that these alleged crimes occurred was the worst day of my life. I was tased (twice), beaten, and zip tied by APD in my own front yard. When I was alerted to the potential of a warrant being issued for my arrest, I consulted and then hired Geoffrey and the Coffer Connelly team. Under Geoffrey and Justins guidance, we allowed my warrant to go through so that Geoffrey and Justin could work with the prosecution to prove my innocence. ( I was nervous about this strategy, but I had faith in their experience) The lead detective on the case was adamant that I was the one who committed the criminal trespass and criminal mischief. Ultimately- Geoffrey and Justin handled everything. I didn’t have a single conversation with any of the APD staff, even when they continued to call me and attempted to incriminate me over the phone. Geoffrey and Justin managed to prove that I was in fact, not- the criminal who committed those crimes, by way of my facial hair. (The other guy that the prosecuting team had a photo of, didn’t have the sweet facial hair that I have) The charges were dropped and the firm is currently working to have the charges completely expunged from my record. When sh*t happens and you need an understanding lawyer that treats the law “like art and less of a science”- hire this firm. Justin (the ex-APD chief (I think)) did an amazing job consolidating the facts to ease the process of having the charges dropped. Geoffrey and Justin were very understanding of my terrible experience and supported me along the way. We even had a few laughs over zoom! Justin even allowed me to personally call him a few times for guidance when APD wouldn’t leave me alone. Having Justin on the team is a real ace in hand. His experience and connections with APD made him incredibly valuable throughout the process. While I don’t intend to get wrapped up in any other criminal nonsense, if I did- I wouldn’t think twice about calling Geoffrey and Justin and the team at Coffer and Connelly. I highly recommend this firm. 10/10. Do recommend. So what are you waiting for? Better get that retainer in before they have too many clients to take you on!

If you’re on the edge as to whether or not to hire the Kugel law firm I hope my review will assist you! I was involved in an accident and got charged with a dui and was a complete nervous and embarrassed wreck. I contacted Kugel Law firm after reading her reviews and that was the best decision I made! Rachel and her team (Sean and Linda) were very knowledgeable, kind, understanding, and responded no matter how many questions I asked they always responded within a timely manner! Because of their diligence and knowledge my DUI and my 3 tickets was DISMISSED!!!! I am forever thankful for this firm! If you retain her you won’t regret it!

And these other reviews I've read about her being an angel is exactly what she is. I had a DWI it was my 7th she got me the best deal. I have been through horrible domestic violence situation where HPD did not stand up for me or help me I had not drank any alcohol in years and I believe I was in a spot where I felt no one was helping me with the domestic violence and I turned back to alcohol and a bad situation. She made no excuses for my act but she also helped me And I will be forever grateful for her because this could have been the worst possible situation the last DWI I had had was in 2009 and this was 2022 when this happened. She is an angel and she is the best representative for anybody facing criminal charges where there are other situations that need to be told to the court to help you and she is that person

I have requested Harun to assist with getting a green card for my elderly mother who currently lives in Indonesia, so that she can come live with me. While this may not happen immediately, Harun has clearly outlined what needs to be done, how long it may take and what costs are involved. We understand what we need to prepare for and are looking forward to Harun’s help and services to go through the process.

Let me start by saying Jesus met me on the day I was to accept a DWI plea. My attorney I hired couldn’t make it so Jesus met me there. Upon reading the conditions my attorney negotiated Jesus advised me that if I was his client he wouldn’t feel comfortable allowing me to sign it. He then negotiated with the prosecutor and got me a much better deal. Saved me $5,000 in fines and a lesser charge. He did all of this without billing me a dollar. I am so grateful and would recommend him to anyone who is facing criminal charges in Dallas.

I was arrested for manufacturing a dangerous drug MDMA greater than 400 grams. It was 4 probes one for the MDMA and one for the money laundering all over the world 130 people were arrested in 16 us cities and Canada , and charged with the RICO Act. They gave me 490 months. I paid Chuck for my appeal. The only thing holding my part of the RICO was the manufacturing of the ecstasy as I was the only Chemist producing (allegedly) one million five hundred thousand pills daily. Mr. Johnson did a investigation from all angles and found the search warrant they used to find the only piece of evidence was a plain sight warrant and on video you could clearly see them remove part of a wall to get to the 5 Rubbermaid storage containers that were all full of MDMA powder unpressed. This proved Illegal search and siezure and I walked away a free man.

Charles Johnson was referred buy an extremely good mutual friend and lawyer. I was in a dire situation. In which I got myself involved in and because of being a naïve person that I am wants to help everybody. I fell into a very very detrimental situation that seemed impossible to get out of. With that being said, and a short version of a long story. I was doing a favor to help two people out not getting any compensation in return. I had gotten myself in the most detrimental situation I could have ever imagined I would’ve ever faced in my lifetime. I did not realize at the time the crime that I had committed was a serious felony and I was facing 10 to life. My Father Came into town to post my bond and did his research in finding me the best criminal attorney that could represent my case and that was, Mr. Charles Johnson. I cannot thank him enough for all of the hard work he did regarding my case. Mr. Johnson went above and beyond to work on my case and got me eight years deferred adjudication, 40 hours of Community service. With only a $2000 fine for this felony crime that seemed impossible to conquer. Mr. Johnson handled the court room like he owned it. He put up a fight from hell and he was determined to win and so he did. I could never thank him enough for taking my case and fighting for me till the very end. It was a huge triumph. I highly recommend Mr. Charles Johnson if you are in a dire situation and in need of a criminal lawyer to represent you. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MR. CHARLES JOHNSON. Mr. Johnson will not lose a fight he will go above and beyond for you. Thank you..........

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You

A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.

Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.

When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?

It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:

  • Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
  • Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
  • Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
  • Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
  • Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
  • Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.

What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?

Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:

  • Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
  • Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
  • Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
  • Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
  • Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
  • Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
  • Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.

How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?

Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:

  • Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
  • Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.

The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.

How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:

  • Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
  • Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
  • Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
  • Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.

Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction.
  4. How many cases have you taken to trial?
    While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial.
  5. Who will handle my case?
    Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work.
  6. How do you communicate with your clients?
    Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer

To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
  • Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
  • Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
  • Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:

  • Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
  • Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
  • List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
  • Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.

By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
