Chris Humphrey & Associates, P.C From the first phone call my nerves and fears and letting me know they would be able to help me through the process, to my experience with Chris as my attorney, I would highly recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal assistance. Chris was extremely thorough from the beginning in guiding me through my case and recommending the steps to be proactive that would help me achieve my desired result. He was able to Dismiss POSSESS CONTR SUBST and PUB INDECENCY: Each and every time I reached out to Chris with questions or nerves he responded immediately with patience and words of reassurance that calmed me. In the end he was able to secure my desired result and I could not be more grateful! Chris is a 10 out of 10 attorney! If you need legal help, do not hesitate to hire Chris . Thank you again Chris Humphrey & Associates, P.C

Chris and Vangie were great, very professional, and helped my wife and I with her application. We are so grateful they took our case as there were no other options for us in our state except one other place very far away. Many thanks to them and their firm!

I was in absolute shambles, I tried to find a good attorney for over a year. When Jason reached out to me he made it very clear his concern was about me and my family and that was it. He made it clear him and his team cared. In the end we got a settlement that was more than I expected. The biggest thing to note is because Jason cared we were Finally able to put one of the worst things that ever happened to me and my family behind us. Allowing us to finally move forward with our lives. 10/10 recommend Jason and his team for any of your personal injury needs. He will undoubtedly put you and your family first every single time! Even though I live in Missouri the accident took place in Wyoming, so I needed an attorney from there. He made is as easy as possible even living 800 plus miles away.

I had the privilege of working with Crystal, and I can confidently say she is the best attorney I’ve ever hired. From start to finish, she delivered exactly what she promised, and always on time. Her insights and advice were consistently precise, giving me complete confidence throughout the entire process.
What stood out most was her exceptional communication—she ensured I was never left in the dark. Whether through updates or quick responses to my questions, Crystal was always accessible, professional, and patient. Her dedication to my case was evident, and I felt fully supported every step of the way.
If you need a reliable, knowledgeable, and responsive attorney, I wholeheartedly recommend Crystal for any legal matter you may encounter

I consulted with Ryan Wright on a variety of legal matters. He is very skilled and practices in several areas of law- which is so helpful to his clients. He also practices throughout Wyoming, which I thought was impressive. I would highly recommend him to any of friends or family that needed legal representation. He is friendly, dedicated and smart- all the things you want in an attorney.

I haven't (luckily) had too many run-ins with law enforcement, but when I did, as an out of town traveler in WY, I was terrified. It was a product of unfortunate circumstance, and I didn't know where to turn and what to do.
I feared that if I contracted a lawyer, (s)he'd take an arm and a leg and leave me to still pay heavy court fines without any result. But I also realized that I needed one, and after a few weeks of deep research, I landed on Ryan Wright.
Initially, his education and reviews sold me on the firm, but from the beginning it was clear to me that I had made an excellent decision for one of the most stressful moments in my life. Ryan, from the get go, was intelligent, a keen listener, and shrewd in his approach. He has an excellent understanding of the law as well as intuition for nuance, and – most importantly – goes wayyyy above and beyond to ensure that his clients have the best deal possible. He did that for me than anyone I've ever hired, at a very fair (and even slightly below market) price.
In the end, I got a pocket deferral, which to laypeople (such as myself) is the equivalent of the holy grail in court results – it happens very, very rarely. Don’t get me wrong – Ryan never guaranteed that result (he couldn’t – no lawyer can – due to the element of chance) but I have no doubt in my mind that he did every single thing in his power to make that happen.
If you’re debating whether Ryan is a sound choice – I hope this review puts your mind at ease. I’d choose him as my lawyer 10/10 times, and I am by nature someone cautious and slow to build trust with.
Thank you Ryan, for everything :)
Happy holidays to you, your family, and the Wright Law Firm family!

I am recommending Don Miller highly for anyone who is serious about their freedom! Mr Miller took the time to know not only me as a person but everyone else involved in my case! He studied and never didn't listen to a single thing I told him involving my case! He verified everything including me and I couldn't respect him more for it! He never bypassed a single detail no matter how large, small, where, or who the details came from! He is kind but firm, honest and real! You will not find a better attorney in this state that will put in the hours and fight for you from the first day until the last, even if your case gets drug out for years as mine was! He never gave up on me even after sentencing and continued to fight for me! He won't steer you wrong good, bad, or indifferent!

I can not begin to explain how grateful I am to have Mr. O'Holleran represent me in my situation at hand. My situation is complex, it is huge, it is over whelming, it is bigger then me and beyond my knowledge as a citizen trying to live with in our community. It has consumed me and it has taken over my life.
I have been dealing with my situation for 1 year and 4 months now. The day I asked Mr. O'Holleran if he could and would help me is the very day I learned that I still am worthy of having someone in my life who cares about what I am going through. For me caring about ones situation no matter what it is that your up against is of one of the most important tools to have in life. I have found this in Mr. O'Holleran. His knowledge of law and how the process of defending someone is unexplainable for me. He is caring, professional and he is quick, and he gets results to your comfort level and to his own.
We are not yet finished with my situation at hand, so this is to be continued for I would like to share again with anyone who reads this my final out come. I am confident it will end up with a graceful walk for me in my future because Mr. OHolleran chose to walk with me, not behind me, not in front of me but along my side.
Mr. OHholleran Thank you for representing... To be continued
For Ever Grateful Barbara

I have relied upon Jeff O’Holleran on several occasions. His knowledge of the law is first rate. He advised me when I represented myself in traffic court. I defeated the city attorney and got the case dismissed. He later prevented me from having a felony on my record. In both cases, he took the time to explain my options and to outline what each course of action would entail. I have found that his prudent thinking and good decision-making are his greatest strengths. I always feel fully informed of the possible outcomes of each decision that I make along the way, and Mr. O’Holleran always works to get the best possible outcome in each situation. I am also impressed by his previous experience. He is able to use elements from previous and similar experiences to great effect. And, when the case is over he has always explained what is expected of me going forward. He is always available when I call and his staff is so friendly, I know that I can count on Mr. Oholleran to give my case the defense I deserve.

Josh Case worked on my divorce. It was extremely stressful. There were days that I did not even want to work or review on my divorce case and just ignore it, but Josh did everything in his power to help me feel less anxious about it. He worked countless hours in such a calm & sufficient manner. Me and the other party went back-and-forth for a year. Josh MADE SURE that I was not just agreeing to whatever (to get it over with) he MADE SURE I was pleased with the all the offers put on the table. My case is finally closed and done with. THANK YOU Josh for helping me in one of the most difficult times in my life!

I hired Terry Harris several years ago to represent me in a Wyoming Workers Comp claim and he was okay. I just didn't feel like he really cared or that he put a lot of effort into my case. I want an attorney who is going to fight for me and do the very best they can!! When your hurt, not able to work, aren't getting paid and your life is going to be permanently changed its a serious thing. I felt like he could have fought harder for me and could have communicated more with me. Like I said he did okay on my case but he wasn't someone I was super impressed with.

My daughter got herself into trouble 1000 miles from home and I was at a loss for who to hire to help her. I looked at many attorneys based in the Cheyenne area and decided to go with Beth, She has a great Resume and got many great reviews from colleagues. She also has broad knowledge of the law which is a plus. Well to be completely honest I am glad I hired her. Even though we live 1000 miles away she was genuinely caring and timely. By the time I had drove out there she had researched the specifics of the case and was able to help secure bond for my daughter even though the circumstances with the case were less than ideal. Lets just say I would highly recommend.......

I like to say, I had this lawyer when I was in my teens and she’s been good to me there’s times and I should’ve been gone. She kept me out. She’s been on my side ever since and I don’t got nothing bad to say about her her if she don’t get with you right then she will get to you you have to be patient. She is a very good lawyer and that’s all I got to say is I wouldn’t ask for nobody else but her for myself.

Woodhouse represented a family member "Sue" in a discrimination case where the employer attempted to back pedal a propsal to fire Sue on false allegations by creating a new job for her. The employer was trying to force Sue to accept the job without reading through the description or understanding the role. Sue's lawyer pushed for Sue to sign as well unaware of the job as well. Sue trusted her lawyer and signed, only to find out later that the job entailed the work load of 2 people and included responsibilities similar to that of a janitor. Woodhouse clearly did not look out for what was in the best interest of her client and allowed the employer to strong arm the client into a disadvantaged position, and then she quit as her representative.

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:
-
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. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
