Not guilty! My case started pre-covid…so several years ago. Jeff never gave up on me and promised we’d have our day in court. Last week after 8 days of trial, the jury returned a verdict of NOT GUILTY! Let Jeff do for you what he did for me! I really enjoyed watching him do his thing in court…he’s the master!

PAY ATTENTION!!!!! I reached out to King because he had good reviews. He literally was the first & only lawyer I reached out to (also the 1st one that popped up..lol) thank GOD! We payed him a consult Fee due to how far he had to travel but ended up not needing to hire him because the case was dismissed. What I will say is that he was very easy to communicate with and always responded to my txt and calls. Although he did not represent us I trust and believe that he would have been the BEST choice.

Mr. King is a stellar attorney!! I consulted Jeff when I was made to show cause for false official statement and fraternization and was immediately impressed by him. He came highly recommended by a friend who also trusted and was let down by the system, but Jeff proved she was NOT guilty at a Court Martial. Jeff is very methodical, professional, thorough, very well spoken and has a presence that is unmatched. He owned the room at my Board of Inquiry with his calm, yet powerful demeanor and I saw how impressed the Board was by him from the start. His military legal experience has WELL prepared him to defend military members. I am a Mustang Naval Officer with a 23 year career that has been nothing less than honorable and I had been wronged by a system I have trusted my entire career. My only regret was that I did not hire Jeff prior to my NJP. I am confident if I had I never would had to face a show cause proceeding. If you are also being treated as guilty until proven guilty as I was, DO NOT hesitate! Jeff will tirelessly work to make them hear you! Jeff King is well worth your investment and he WILL protect the career you have put blood, sweat, and tears into! My Board unanimaously overturned the false official statement and voted to retain. I am extremely happy with the results and now have the closure I needed. I can now honorably retire!

Heather Barbieri gets unbelievably GOOD results for her clients. She often wins acquittals and gets cases dismissed, even when the case doesn't look good for the client. Defense attorneys are not miracle workers, but she's as close as it gets. And she's honest and does not charge too much, only what is necessary to defend her clients. If you want great results and you are in need of criminal defense, I strongly recommend Ms. Barbieri.

Heather and her team did a dynamite job with my case. I can't believe I have a brand new lease on life now because of them. I was reluctant at first, even though I had a really good feeling about them from my initial consultation. I'm so grateful I went all in. It was worth it. They are just so passionate and dedicated and have a great strategy for winning.

Mr. Tommy Hull exceeded my ‘attorney-expectations’, with his integrity, honesty, and due diligence. Mr. Hull's representation exuberated the up most professionalism and keenness. Mr. Hull believes in true justice, and it shows! He is the only upstanding, honest, and sincere attorney I have ever hired. In short, Mr. Tommy Hull never promised anything he could not deliver: He never lied to me. Mr. Hull is upright, trustworthy, and effectively clear. His loyalty to his clients proves his 'no smoke and mirrors' approach. When hiring an attorney, your future is in their hands. Mr. Tommy Hull's reputability and sincerity helps to take the weight off your shoulders. With his efficacious plans and effectual results, you will not be dissatisfied. Tommy is trustworthy, detailed, and out to obtain justice for his clients. His adequacy for justice has been proven: ten-fold. I hope to never have to hire Mr. Hull for another criminal offense. However, I will always keep him on retainer for future recommendation, and counseling purposes: regardless of the legislative capacity.

Tommy Hull and his paralegal Kenna are awesome! I picked Tommy as my criminal defense attorney after an officer made a false DWI allegation against me. As a former prosecutor, Tommy is incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to get things done; he’s a straight shooter and always made time to meet with me when I had questions, and was able to give a realistic guesstimation of outcome right away, but never sugar coated anything(he tells you things you don’t want to hear but need to). Paralegal Kenna is also awesome, she was super responsive, and knowledgeable giving answers she knew on the fly, or reaching out to Tommy when needed. Tommy is a little more pricey than some options in the region, but in my opinion a very worthwhile investment. He had everything taken care of within 7 weeks, and while he told me that I could expect to lose my drivers license; he ended up having the ALR case dismissed too… So I never lost my license, which statistically is something that lawyers in these cases are only able to achieve less than 5% of the time. But I think that’s very much consistent with who he is… I’d guess Tommy is easily within the top 5% of lawyers capability wise.

I hired Ms. Townsend for a child custody case. In the beginning I was going to court without a lawyer, just me and my Mom. It felt like no one was listening to me and thought I would lose my son. My Mom was able to find a lawyer for me that didn't ask for $1000 of dollars before talking to me. She listened to me and I knew I hired the right lawyer. She stuck with me to the end making going to court so much easier. I could always talk to her. I won the custody case because of Josephine Townsend. Ms. Townsend is dedicated to her clients. She kicks injustice in the butt.

Josie was the best, definitely made the right choice to hire her for my mom!!!! We were highly recommended to do a consultation with her by another lawyer and it was the best decision made. We talked to plenty of other lawyers and seemed like they didn’t want to help and just take our money but when we went to see Josie she actually took the time to listen to what we had to say and was very patience with us. Josie was very straight forward and was very honest. Josie was actually wanting to help us and told us exactly what it was and what we could expect out of our case. She responds quickly to emails and text messages and even when she was in court she would let me know she would get back to me as soon as she was done so it made everything easier. Our case wasn’t the easiest but Josie definitely “won” and the outcome was great. I would highly recommend Josie she is the absolute best and she cares which makes a huge difference in her clients. If you or anyone is looking for an awesome lawyer Josie is the go to lady very knowledgeable and a very smart women!!!!!!

We were desperate and needed someone that would hear our small voice in a huge system. Mr. Gonzales came highly recommended. The professional staff helped us secure an appointment immediately. After our consultation, we knew this was the place for us and hired him on the spot. Mr. Gonzales is professional, personable, knowledgeable, honest, caring and helpful. He gave us his contact number and made himself available 24/7. Any time I contacted him, I always received a return call or message without delay. If he was not available for any reason, we would still receive a return call or message from attorney Christian Henricksen. These two attorneys are a true DREAM TEAM. He exceeded our expectations. He is not just an awesome attorney, he is an awesome person. If you have found yourself or a family member in need of an attorney, Mr. Gonzales comes with the highest of recommendations. Thank you for everything Mr. Gonzales.

I was referred to Mr. Joe Gonzales by a law enforcement colleague who had dealt with him several times while working cases at the DA’s office. I was given Mr. Gonzales’s cell number and calling him was the best decision I had ever made. My initial meeting and impression of Mr. Gonzales was that he was a professional and he listened attentively while I explained what had occurred that led up to my arrest and charge. He understood that I could not accept anything but a dismissal or an acquittal or I would lose my career and future goals. He advised me that he would be working with a team that included Mr. Christian Henrickson and that I would be getting two lawyers for the price of one. I struggled emotionally through a year and a half of court dates until the case went to trial. Despite all my fears, Mr. Gonzales and his team reassured me and I knew they believed in my innocence. When Mr. Gonzales goes into “trial mode” it’s amazing. His cross examinations of the prosecution’s witnesses and complainant were direct and strategically effective. The trial was very stressful for me and as we were waiting for the jury to return with their verdict after deliberation I will never forget how terrified I was and how Mr. Gonzales calmingly placed his hand on mine and smiled and said, “Do not lose your faith now.” He was confident until the very end and even when I had feared the worst he believed in my case. The jury came back very quickly with a unanimous decision and acquitted me of the charge. I will never forget what I went through to fight for the truth and I will never forget how hard Mr. Gonzales and his team fought for me. They were amazing and I felt so blessed to have them fighting in my corner. Joe, from the bottom of my heart I want thank you and will never forget what you did. I would recommend Joe Gonzales to anyone who needs a lawyer because I truly believe and know from experience that he and his team are the best lawyers a person can have. His integrity, experience, and knowledge are assets for anyone who needs a professional lawyer to fight for their case. I would highly recommend him!

I was very concerned about what attorney would represent me. I wanted and attorney that would they be fair and understanding to my case. I was driving up IH35 and saw a billboard with Joe Gonzales picture and phone number. I decided at this time I would like to schedule a meeting with him to discuss my case. My first meeting with Joe was professional and honest, he allowed me to discuss my side of the story without judgement. He listened attentively and made sure I understood the pros and cons to include the direction we should take to ensure I received deferred adjudication. Each time I was given a court date he was present and ready to go. Joe Gonzales met with the DA's office and negotiated the best deal for me. During the whole process I trusted Joe and he had my best interest at heart. Joe keeps you informed and he cares more about the client and the outcome. I appreciate all that Joe did for me and my family, he is one of the best attorney's in San Antonio. Thank you Joe for everything......your more than an attorney your a friend!

Attorney Munyer is very skilled and highly respected by many in Summit County. Munyer works extremely hard on all of his cases and argues for the best possible outcome of accused clients. He is tentative to detail and knows exactly what to do when receiving evidence from the state.

Noah Munyer is a legal wizard with magical powers. If you are lucky enough to have Noah lay his golden hands on your case, you're going to get the best possible outcome. Whether you've just been arrested, or you're disappointed with how your lawyer has been handling your case, you owe it to yourself to talk to Noah before signing anything or making any statements. Noah gets things done. He stays on top of his business, and will keep you informed and updated about your case and your options. He doesn't just file papers and sit back and wait for things to happen -- he MAKES things happen, and that's the difference between an average lawyer and an amazing lawyer. The best advice I can give anyone with legal problems in Ohio is: Talk to Noah. Pay Noah. Do what Noah tells you to do.

I had the privilege of getting Noah as a public defender back in 2014 I knew from the first time we talked that I had found my future attorney if need be and yes I ended up hiring him in 2021. I’m almost 43 and my younger adult years i racked up a ridiculous criminal history which by no means am I proud of at all I have a attempted murder, felonious assaults, participating in a criminal gang. So what I’m trying to get at is with a record like mine it’s pretty safe to say that if I catch any cases that the state of Ohio for the most part has a cell with my name on it. With a “big dogg” attorney like Noah on your side I never once felt as if I was going to prison he was always upfront and honest even if he may of thought it was something I may not of wanted to hear. For an attorney to get me to trust them it’s a pretty heavy task to achieve due to prior railroads and lies from other attorneys, but Noah was a natural it was mostly because I could feel that he was genuine

Words cannot express the gratitude, the heartfelt obligation she provided for me during my fight for justice. She is the best. I was wrongly accused of a violation of the law that I did not commit. I was extremely emotional, I dealt with anxiety and panic attacks. She did not judge me, she comforted although I was having emotional breakdowns. I was able to rely on her judgements, her sincerity and her efforts to fight. She reassured me my fight was her fight, and even helped me breathe though when I felt like I was an emotional wreck. What matters the most in the event when I lost one of my twin baby’s to death she made sure she made appearances and decision that benefited me. I love her whole team because of the whole team put an effort to fight we had case law that was unstoppable and won our writ of mandamus. I am forever grateful and would recommend them to anyone that experience the injustice that I had. Thank u so much u saved my livelihood.

Not to knock my Public Defender, but she had already written me off after a 90 second conversation, and told me I should plead guilty to a deal without asking more than 3 questions. I almost just accepted this, but knew I wasn’t guilty and decided not to be a victim of the system built to protect me. I first called Decio to ask his opinion on my case, and I immediately felt he was invested in finding out the full details and did not jump to any conclusions. After our brief 10 minute phone discussion, he laid out a few ways he thought the case could go, but offered to meet in person the same day to provide a more in depth assessment. We met at his office, which is very warm and welcoming, and went to a private conference room where for about 30 mins he and I discussed the case, after which he told me how he thought he could best fight the case for me, and that all hope was not lost as the Public Defender had made me feel at my initial hearing. His confidence in me and what I was telling him convinced me he was going to be not only my best chance at a fair outcome, but to deal with someone who looked at me as an individual, not just another case number to get through. Throughout the case, Decio personally reached out to me at least a dozen times to keep me up to speed, to ask for meetings, info, etc.... I never once had to go looking for him. When he explained something over the phone that I just wasn’t sure or clear about, he always invited me to come meet at the office to work through things, always reassuring. The longer our relationship grew, the more I could feel him becoming personally attached to my outcome, and it really felt like I had someone on my team who wanted not only the best outcome for the case, but for my life moving forward in general. If you’re on the fence about whether to hire a private attorney, I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Decio, and am so very certain now making the call to him changed the path my life was headed. With the public defender, I’d be living the rest of my life with a conviction and the stigma and shame for something I wasn’t guilty of. With Decio, NO CONVICTION, CASE DISMISSED! And also, just as important, I don’t feel like a helpless civilian who can be railroaded into guilt, I know that if you have the right help, you can push back! Thank you again for everything Decio!

His law office is focused on trial, and not just pleading out. If you desire a plea bargain he will work to achieve the outcome you desire, but dont fear if you want to go to trial. He is dedicated and thorough and will work hard to achieve a positive outcome.

Mr. Paskey told me up front that he would like to help but could not promise anything, and also told me that he did not want me to hire him right away, to go out and look at other lawyers to be sure. I knew from the beginning that i choose the right person for the job. During the entire process he kept me informed and made professional references as to what would be smart to do through the process (ex: hiring a court stenographer). In the end of everything he always made sure that i was doing okay and tried to work with me even when i lived out of state. When it came down to the final trial he worked his hardest to make sure that I was comfortable and that i remained calm. The trial came out in favor and i couldn't be more grateful that he handled my case and fought his hardest for me. I am forever grateful that he took time out of his busy days to handle my case.

David Terry was hired by my boyfriend for a criminal negligent homicide case. My boyfriend was expected to go to jail for 30 days, which was part of the plea deal made with the DA. My boyfriend ended up not having to go to jail at all. David is very intelligent, he knows the court room and law like the back of his hand. He is friendly, out going and very funny.

Eleven months ago, we found ourselves in the middle of an absolute nightmare when our son was falsely accused of a crime that he did not commit; he was the victim. David Terry walked us through every step of the legal process, he communicated extensively with us, and he advocated for our son every step of the way. We cannot say enough good things about the way that he represented our son. David was available days, nights, and weekends, and he fully supported taking a family/team approach to the case. His extensive experience, effective strategies, vast knowledge of the law, and relentless commitment to the truth, gave us the positive outcome that we desired for our son. We highly recommend David Terry to anyone who really needs someone to listen to them, and to fight for justice on their behalf. We will be forever grateful for the compassionate nature that was shown to our family by both David, and his caring staff, during one of the most challenging times of our lives; he is worth every single penny.

I had gotten into trouble with the law in 2000 and was sentenced to prison for eight years in 2001. My wife at the time divorced me and kept my two children from me my entire sentence and then used the fact that I was an ex-felon to continue to keep them from me. Right after my son turned 18 my ex wife tried to come after me for a lot of money. A friend of mine from church was an attorney and told me I need to speak with Mr. Ken Foote. I did and hired him right away. One of the best decisions I have made! Mr. Foote’s knowledge and experience was a huge blessing for me and even though I had to pay some money to my ex wife it was NOTHING compared to what she was trying to do to me and get from me. Mr. Foote was so good that the judge handling my case even apologized to me for my ex wife’s actions and what she was trying to do, in fact he wasn’t even happy with her attorney. I am so thankful to my Lord Jesus for placing Mr. Foote in my life and incredibly grateful to Mr. Foote for how much he cares about his clients and the awesome job he did for me. Thank you Ken Foote and may Jesus bless you and your firm as you continue to be a blessing to others!

I have been working with Foote Law Firm recently for over 4 solid years (12 years total), and from the office staff, to just getting a phone call from Mr. Foote to talk to me when I was upset, this office is amazing. They gave me all the options, all the things that could happen and prepared me for the worst and even the best. In the end it was clearly the best as we won our case and my children are protected. I cannot thank this Kenneth Foote and his staff enough for having everything together and being extremely responsive to mine and my children's needs.

I hired Mr. Lichtman over a year ago to represent my brother in a federal case. My family and I had initially hired another lawyer who stole our money and butchered my brother's defense. We were beginning to lose hope and accepted that my beloved brother was going to spend most of his life in prison. My good friend in California referred me to Mr. Lichtman and I contacted him immediately. After our initial call, my family and I felt like we hit the lottery. Thanks to our superstar lawyer, my brother will be home soon. He is a literal legal genius and knows exactly what to do and what not to do – a quality most lawyers lack. He genuinely cared about my brother’s case and spent a lot of time answering our questions. If you're looking for an incredible and aggressive defense lawyer, I highly recommend hiring him. Mr. Lichtman saved my brother’s life.

Being accused of a criminal case is something that marks your life forever. Not only does it affect you in the legal way, but it can also have an impact on various aspects of you life like your employment, immigration status (like in my case) and it can be emotionally and financially stressful. A few months back, I was involved in an altercation with my now ex-husband. Police came and arrested me for domestic violence. I was devastated. I made the decision to hire Richard for my defense and I am glad I did. Him and his team were very responsive to my questions and concerns. Given that my case affected my immigration status, Richard was helpful in coordinating information about my case with my immigration lawyer as well. His attitude towards my case made me feel like he really cared, and gave me peace of mind. I knew what had happened was unfair and I was willing to go all the way. I am thankful to have taken the advice of Richard and try to fight my case until the end. We managed to get a positive result. CASE DISMISSED. If you are going trough a tough time, hire a lawyer, and Richard is the best choice! Ser acusado de un crimen is algo que puede marcar tu vida para siempre. No solo te afecta legalmente pero tambien puede tener un impacto en tu vida laboral y tu situacion migratoria (como en mi caso), Tambien puede ser emocionalmente y economicamente estresante. Ace unos meses, yo estube involucrado en un altercado con mi ex esposo. La policia llego y me arrestaron a mi. Tome la decision de contratar a Richard para mi defensa, y me alegreo de haberlo echo. El y su equipo contestaron a todas mis preguntas y preocupasiones. dado que mi caso affectaba mi situacion migratoria, Richard fue muy efectivo en communicarse con mi abogada de inmigracion para obtener el resultado mas favorable. Yo sabia que lo que paso fue injusto y estaba dispuesto a llegar hasta las ultimas consecuensias. Me alegro de haber tomado el consejo de Richard y pelear mi caso hasta el final. Al final mi CASO fue DESCARTADO por el Fiscal. Si estas pasando por un momento dificil, te recomiendo al abogado Richard. El es la mejor opcion, Todos en su oficina incluyendo el, hablan ESPANOL.

I've known Mr Scott nettles for roughly a decade, I have referred several friends and family members all leading to acquittals. With regards to myself Scott has handled everything with great success. Not only that but he makes me feel like I am a part of his family, like this case of mine was first priority. I have never met an attorney like him. He definitely is not your average attorney, all he wants to do is win. Dealing with Scott is like dealing with a family member. His only concern is that Justice prevails. If you're looking for an attorney that cares about Justice and ensuring that you're right are upheld and our criminal justice system then this is the attorney you want. He is on your side and will work so hard to win your case. All you have to do is go talk to him for 15 minutes and you will see for yourself. I encourage anybody who is having to go through anything criminal to please reach out to this attorney because you will not be disappointed. I'm not just saying this because I've known him for a decade I'm telling you this because I just sent four more referrals. to Mr nettles not only did he not overcharge them he had everything thrown out for every person that was sent as well. in simple words if you're looking for the best look up Scott nettles take take 10 minutes set an appointment you'll see for yourself best criminal lawyer I've ever met best criminal lawyer.

I recently passed through a small town going faster than I should have (as I was honestly running late to a wedding). Ended up meeting a nice gentleman on the side of the highway and thought I would be looking at a speeding ticket real soon... Well... I thought wrong, and I was actually looking at serving a 90 day sentence at the local bed and breakfast (correctional center). I was referred to Mr. Nettles who “knew the law book from front to back.” I talked with him a few times and he went to work on my case. Later Mr. Nettles went to court on my behalf and took care of everything as he originally said he would. Scott really went above and beyond for me and I’m so thankful (and yes his knowledge of the law is extraordinary). It’s finally over now, and all was made right at town hall. Looking back I’m really not that upset for missing out the accommodations and breakfast! Thanks to Mr. Nettles

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.
  10. Are there alternative ways to solve my legal problem?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  2. Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
  3. Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
  4. Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
  5. Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
  3. List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  4. Financial Information:
    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
  5. Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
  6. Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
  8. Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
    • Flat Fee:
      For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
    • Retainer Fee:
      An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.
    • Contingency Fee:
      Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
    • Monthly Retainer:
      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
  • Factors Affecting Cost:
    • Complexity of the Case:
      More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
    • Lawyer's Experience:
      Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
    • Geographic Location:
      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:
      Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
  • Estimating Total Costs:
    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
    Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
  • Pro Bono Services:
    For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
