Bryan worked tirelessly to ensure that our legal issue was handled to our satisfaction. He didn’t give up and continued to fight for us until a satisfactory resolution was found. His costs are more than reasonable and I would recommend him to anyone. A true gem in our community!

Had a couple of "episodes" forced into my life including police harassment and a 4TH amendment violation by a police officer followed by another harassment incident with a different officer combined with some serious charges and so on...Brian Whitaker did a great job of having everything rightfully dropped. He took his time to let the issue become less emotional and got the absolute best possible results available. I could not have expected any better at all.

After Rolando's intervention, he discovered a plea agreement that my lawyer had overlooked, providing a new avenue for resolving the situation. Recognizing the value of Lambet and Argüelles' assistance in the past, I have turned to them again, confident that they will guide me and help rectify the current predicament.
With their expertise and dedication, I am hopeful that Lambet and Argüelles will navigate the complexities of my case and ensure a favorable outcome. They have proven themselves as trustworthy allies, and I am grateful for their unwavering support throughout this challenging process.

Misty was always available whenever I needed her on the phone. Her office location is very convenient in town. She thoroughly reviewed my case with me and several follow up appointments. I let her know what result I wanted and got it done! I wish all attorneys were like her! Hopefully I'll never need her again but if I do, she will be my first call!

With over 20 years in the business, Brand and Resendez are extremely knowledgeable and very well respected in their field. They do a great job at listening, understanding the needs and investigating each case to the fullest. They provided consultation for me and then ended up representing a good fried of mine. Through their thorough investigation of the case and representation to the jury they were able to get an acquittal for him. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing representation.

I received a notice of photo enforcement of a speeding violation. Mr. Clapp was able to let me know that paying the ticket would have no further ramifications, and that contesting it would not be worth the time and effort. He took the time to put my mind at ease, which was a great comfort.

He was very helpful from the beginning to end. He was respectful, friendly, knowledgeable and charismatic. He knew his stuff and really proved it the day of trail. He is truly a life saver. He knew my position and fought for both my boyfriend and I to get justice the correct way! I am beyond grateful to him! If you're in trouble or feel like someone you love and know is wrongly accused I highly recommend him as a lawyer. Hes affordable and extremely intelligent. He speaks both Spanish and English so hes really worth. Thank you Mr. Clapp! 2/15/18 was the day you made things right for both my boyfriend, thank you so very much!! He gets a 10 out of 5 stars from me!

Kelly contacted me about my case at the SCC in 2018, where I had been transferred to , after I had completing an eight year sentence for a crime that I did not commit. I explained the facts of my case to her, and she agreed to represent me in my upcoming SVP trial. With her choice of a second chair, and expert witnesses. She proceeded to annihilate the, Washington State Attorney General's so called, "case".
I owe my very freedom to this smart, honest, beautiful, trial savvy woman, and Most Excellent Attorney. If not for her, I would have been spending the rest of my life at the SCC. Thanks again Kelly !

Kate Stimson keeps government in their box. What I did was wrong and that seems to give some parts of government the belief that I have no rights. With tremendous commitment, skill and zeal, Stimson navigated a difficult path, achieved a one of a kind win, and now I have my life back. Kate has my eternal gratitude.

Kate was there with me every step of the way, including going to court with me one week after giving birth.
Kate was always professional, always prepared and always available to talk to. She represented me very forcefully with real skill and persistence. She was reassuring throughout and instilled a sense of confidence in me that I was in excellent hands, and the end result confirmed that confidence.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Kate without reservation.

Hiring Rachel was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I found myself in an unfortunate legal situation that ultimately had some rather substantial career implications. Rachel worked tirelessly to obtain the best possible outcome. She is incredibly hard working, compassionate, straight-forward, and intelligent. Rachel and her team take a holistic approach and treated me with such kindness, compassion and respect. While working on my case, Rachel and her team took the time to understand me, the situation, and the future implications that the charges carried. Words cannot express how truly grateful I am that Rachel represented me!

Rachel Oliver is the best attorney I've ever had. She was working for the Jefferson County Public Defender's Office at the time. This was my fourth DUI in a lifetime , My last DUI was 20 years ago. I went to AA and treatment and I have been sober for over 2 and 1/2 years. She believed I took responsibility for my actions and I was ready to take the punishment I deserved. I was also looking at a extensive jail sentence, but I ended up with a much shorter sentence. I have had other attorneys over the years that I actually hired and paid. I have never seen or heard of a public defender attorney fighting so hard for their client. I know they are so overwhelmed with clients.. but despite that she spent a lot of time meeting with me and treated me with respect and courtesy. Rachel really cares about all her clients . I feel I owe her so much. I would hire her for anything at any time. I have recommended her to anyone I know that needs an attorney. I would never hire any other attorney except for her! She goes to bat for you, and fight as hard as she can for you. She really, really listens to what you have to say. I could go on and on how great she is , but I would run out of room. I thank her sincerely from the bottom of my heart.

A year and a half ago, my 19-year-old daughter was arrested and initially charged with 18 charges, one of which carried a mandatory sentence of life without parole. I am so glad we hired Rachel. Her and her team worked so hard for her, overturning every stone, peeling back every layer. She fought for my daughter to the very end and we were so fortunate that through her dedication, my daughter was sentenced to probation. Rachel is truly passionate about what she does, and her work and results are a direct reflection of that. She is kind, straightforward, honest, has great people skills, great communication skills and she does not fear or avoid hard work. I know she had her work cut out for her with this case and we are so grateful she was the attorney placed in our lives. I pray we never have to go through anything like this again, but if any of my friends or family are ever in need of a criminal attorney, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Rachel.

The first lawyer I was appointed did show any type of concern or care for my case. When Erin was appointed, she made me feel confident and she showed that she cared and will be dedicated to helping me win. She did an amazing job. She was hands on, kept me informed, explained things with detail, showed concern about me and my family, and got me the victory she new I deserved.

I always thought that people who had issues with the police must have done something to deserve it. I learned the hard way that its not true. I experienced ongoing harassment from the Waltham police who seemed to take advantage of my complicated family situation. I am an African American and a single parent who actually believed that I have rights. Silly me. The police used every opportunity to attempt to get me into trouble repeatedly all in retaliation for my filing internal affairs complaints due to their misconduct. I was fighting a losing battle. This happened in front of my family and friends. They all just said move.
Erin Opperman walked into my life and gave me hope. In my opinion My prior attorney was afraid of the District Attorneys office. The charges were bogus.
Not Erin. After Erin got involved no additional bogus charges were ever filed. She had to fight for several years, not months, years , before the case was finally dismissed.
This included Erin getting my case transferred to another venue. The DA was super angry with her for fighting so hard for my freedom. She had to file motion after motion after motion. She recognized what I was up against and stood by me. Erin refused to let them rail road me. Anyone that is looking for a lawyer who will fight for you as if you were her own family, then she is the person that you want representing you. I was a difficult client, I always calling her crying asking why me? She listened patiently and calmed me down. I thank God that she did not withdraw from my case when things got worse. I would have been convicted of a crime that I did not commit. I thank God that I met Erin, she is lawyer that gives 100% to her client. I would hire her again if I am ever in need of a excellent lawyer who will be committed to my case.

I was accused of sexual assault after becoming involved with a prostitute. I was accused of horrible crimes. Erin was so nice and made me feel comfortable even though we had to discuss these awkward and horrible charges. She knew that this person was lying to protect herself. We prepared for trial several times in her office and eventually my charges were dismissed. She is so kind and respectful and also very aggressive in court.

I own multiple businesses and Eric Bell has done law work for me and consultation work for the last 15 years. I have also referred several people to him (at least 5 family members or friends that used him) over the years. This guy puts his heart and soul into every case he gets whether it is something trivial or major, in cook county or has to drive to Dupage county or a neighboring courthouse he will get it done. You obviously have to have some intelligence to be an effective attorney but to really get things done you have to have a great work ethic and be likable too. Eric fits the bill, he has a fierce work ethic and I don't know if I ever met anyone that doesn't like him. I tell everyone I can about Eric. As nice as he is, he's an animal in the court room. I would be happy to speak to you about Eric and would proudly put my name all over his endorsement.

When I was charged with a felony DWI I need a lawyer who listen, care for and defend me to the best of their ability. Having children and a career, I knew that loosing my license would be detrimental my children's lives because I could potentially loose my job or need to quit my job. I had initially hired a larger firm, with the mindset that "you get what you pay for." After a few weeks, I found myself to be utterly disappointed with my decision. I signed the contract and payed the fee, but nobody would return my calls in regards to my case, or call me to update me on my case. I felt like I was in the dark. Then when I finally did receive a call, instead of the lawyer talking to like their was hope, he talked to meet like I was just another case in their case load. I was utterly disappointed in my decision. I then began saving money to seek out other representation. A coworker of mine suggested I meet with Attorney Melanson. After meeting with him for a short time, I realized he was the person I needed from the beginning. He made me feel like he had my back at a time when I desperately needed someone to. Attorney Melanson returned my calls almost immediately, was honest and upfront about my case from the beginning, and treated me like I was his most important client. He made sure I knew the worst possible outcome but fought incredibly hard to get the best possible outcome. In the end, my case was reduced significantly. I have my job, my license and most importantly my children's safety and security.My family and I are so thankful for his hard work and for his dedication to my case.

The best professional decision I have made in a 19+ year career on active duty was to hire Jaclyn to represent me when I was facing a career-threatening administrative action. Jaclyn is the most accessible and honest professional that I have ever worked with, and without her assistance in resolving my case I don’t know if I would have been able to make it to retirement. During the several months of investigation and suspension of favorable actions, Jaclyn was truly the only person who was on my side; even members of my command said that hiring an outside attorney was the best decision I made and a major factor that influenced the favorable result. No matter the need for counsel, you are not going to find a more professional, accessible, and accountable confidant than Jaclyn, she literally saved me and my family’s career.

Isolation may not have stopped immediately at work, but feeling alone and unheard quickly changed the second I began communicating with Jaclyn.
She fought tirelessly, even when I just had nothing left in the tank.
If you're looking up lawyers, chances are you know you need a lawyer, but you can't commit just yet because you don't care, or you just think your situation is a lost cause. That's where I was, but the more I read her background, and history of the entire firm, I committed to it.
After the consultation, it confirmed that not only did I need a lawyer, but that I needed her. She took ownership of the entire thing. She was genuinely offended by not only the claim, but the entire premise of the poor leadership and investigatory process I had to deal with. Once I hired her, she got right to work, informed all parties to include legal, investigatory, and leadership that anything regarding legal matters would need to be directed towards her.
She crosses all t's and dots all i's. When the cards were stacked against me, she picked and poked at each of those cards and 1 by 1 exploited them until the prosecution had nothing left except what they started with, a false claim with no factual substance.
I don't know where I want my career to head from this point, but I now have control of my career again. That is almost completely if not all attributed to Jaclyn Grieser, her dedication, work ethic, fierce stance on justice, and commitment to me as her client

Jaclyn by far exceeded our expectations. She went above and beyond. She responded to every email, phone call put in with amazing response times. Extra time and effort put into all aspects of our case, even when her portion was done she was ready and willing to respond and provide further information. Her knowledge and perseverance shined through. She was aggressive with opposition and demanded action and answers. We can never thank her enough for all the hard work she put in. Even with acting in such a professional manner she managed to allow a personal spin which made us feel confident in all aspects of the case. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help. The way she fought for our case surpassed our expectations.

Perry came with the highest recommendation and delivered. From an initial consultation within an hour of contacting him and through a seven month ordeal of hearing and court dates, he and his staff were always responsive , informative and supportive. He outlined everything that would and could happen beforehand, reviewed everything that did happen after and always kept me aware of my options.
It is beyond comforting to have 'The' lawyer on your side who draws the notice of everyone - other counselors and court staff included - when he enters the courtroom.

When my special needs child was abused on the school bus, I went to Michael Eidman to bring a lawsuit against the parties involved. It was a very stressful time for my son and myself.

I was very pleased with the results and the manner in which it was handled. Very professional.

After I was arrested I searched for and spoke to numerous lawyers and felt no confidence. I began looking through the"Top 22 Lawyers" list and found the Law Offices of Daniel and Hudson. I spoke with the paralegal Brittany and she had a lawyer call me back within minutes. After speaking with the lawyer, Mr. Halstead (a military Veteran) I was more at ease and knew this was the right lawyer. The up front cost wasn't ridiculous and he was already making a plan on how to move forward. We spoke often at his office answering any questions I had and he also called me to let me know what was going on with my case. My charges were very serious and I was originally looking at a possible 25 years, but with his advice to hold out for a better outcome, it was 8 yrs, then it was just probation then it was dismissed. I owe it to Mr. Halstead for his knowledge of the criminal justice system and knowing when and how to present his case. I would "Highly" recommend Mr. Halstead in any criminal case because of his professionalism and knowledge base. Thanks to Mr.Halsted and his team (Brittany and Veronica) I got my life back!

Woodrow Halstead sets the standard for legal work in San Antonio and south Texas. I have asked for his expert counsel on several matters of great importance to my business, and his legal acumen and ability to get to the heart of the matter are unmatched. Even more than his legal expertise - his integrity and work ethic make him a "must have" in any legal situation

I was in a big messy divorce and allegations arose of misconduct with my child ( to put it mildly ). After putting money down with a criminal lawyer that I will not name, I saw the beginning of a scary path because the lawyer lacked sufficient experience in these type of cases. So I looked up the Daniel and Hudson law firm and decided to present my case.
I was informed of what to expect and what not to expect. But throughout the conversations I’ve seen the experienced lawyers treating this case with diligence. What I experienced in the court room when my lawyer questioned the states negligence in facts and lack of officers experience in sensitive information was overwhelming to witness; since I would have never known what to expect in this type of case. My confidence with my lawyer Woody was further uplifted when the intern lawyer that I met during the trial proceedings told me that a lot of interns come to see him defend his clients. It was almost a god given sign that I had the right person for what is the most traumatic experience in my life... Thank you Woody, you gave me my life back.

I was looking for an attorney for my son and had called numerous lawyers in the area. We are from Ohio so I had no idea where to start. I came across Ken’s firm and sent an email about my situation. I received a call back at 10 pm that night. The ONLY lawyer to call me back. He has been amazing and I would recommend him and his firm to anyone who needs an attorney that cares and will do what they say they are going to do. I am so thankful for him and his staff.

Very impressive law firm! Tyler Chriscoe spent a lot of time giving us very good advice. He went above and beyond even before we retained him in explaining the procedures. And the outcome for my son was better than we could have asked for. Mr. Chriscoe's assistant, Jocelyn, was also super helpful and everything done in an exceedingly timely manner. If I could give 6 stars, I would!

Tyler Chriscoe and Cecilia Medel are an amazing pair! They provided me competent assitance while meeting all my needs and answering all of my questions. At least one of them was constantly in touch with me providing updates and keeping me in the loop of what was going on at all times. Tyler got my entire case thrown out in a matter of a week and a half and I didn't have to even leave the state in which I reside. Highly recommend!

Mr. Metos was kind, patient, empathetic and non judgmental to my daughter. He helped her be accountable for her past history of substance dependence and navigated her through many cities in which she had warrants. I am forever grateful.

We all make mistakes; some of us make illegal ones. being caught is horrifying. Your fate is left in someone else’s hands, and you have little control of what the consequences of your actions will be. It’s like having the lights turned off, it’s pitch black and you can’t find the light switch. Mr. Metos was my light switch. He was patient, non-judgmental, and the best in his field, which is exactly what you want when you find yourself in this type of situation. Fred was able to negotiate a minimal amount of time for my sentence; I received three months which could have been 15 years. Seven years after serving my sentence, Fred was able to have my record expunged. Life is good; I owe a great deal of my success and happiness after that dark period in my life to Fred.
