Having Camille Coolidge represent me was a positive experience in every way. My wife and I were beyond impressed by her professionalism, attention to detail, organization and clarity. She was prompt and thorough in her responses to all of our questions and concerns. Not only does she strive for excellence as an attorney but she is above all a wonderfully caring human being. Facing legal challenges can be very difficult but Camille Coolidge makes every effort to help her clients and gives them peace of mind through the process. I can’t thank her enough for everything she did for me and my family.

I normally don’t write reviews, but I wouldn’t wish this situation on anyone. My lawyer is Mary Hammons, I can’t speak for other attorneys but if she is assigned to you, RUN or ask for her to be removed. My experience, with her during trial was horrible she was not prepared and would not object to false statements and information provided to the judge.

Personally I had bad experience with this firm , initially I contacted the is firm because we need to resolve an issue with something we purchased and we got scammed for more than 5k with a company in Miami , this firm ask for every detail in this case and they took it but after 3 months I was trying to contact them and the person in charge of my case was no longer available and they didn’t tell us anything like an update or anything so I had to call Them and also write many messages via Instagram and after 3 weeks they finally responded just saying that they not gonna take my case without mentioning anything
Terrible customer service and I believe the lawyers or attorneys working there are really amateur and with zero professionalism

Hey, I want to thank the team for their exceptional help in resolving an issue with my credit report. I was distressed when I discovered incorrect information on my report, but the team handled everything with professionalism. I’m relieved to see the issue with Equifax is finally resolved. I truly appreciate their expertise and support. Now I’m waiting for the Experian settlement agreement.
Highly recommend their services!:)

Would avoid working with this firm if at all possible. They are extremely slow to respond, completely disregard emails, and show a complete lack of empathy or understanding. If you are not consistently following up, you will be hard pressed to receive any type of response. If you do receive a response, it will be short and often times not even answer your questions. It consistently felt like we had to chase them down for the most simple requests. Go elsewhere if you have the option.

Sheila Zolnoor is an excellent lawyer who has helped out many of our clients at James Club Recovery. She understands that sometimes substance abuse results in individuals perpetuating a crime. BUT, like us, she believes in treatment versus incarceration for deserving individuals. I have personally seen her lawyering and she has had incredible results in the courtroom. We highly recommend this great attorney!

I knew from the very first time i spoke with her that we were in good hands. I knew we had to hire her. My friend hired her for her son years ago and now my son needed somebody. I had another lawyer at first. My son was charged with attempted murder but he was only defending himself. Because they didn’t give him a bond, the other lawyer had to have a special kind of bond hearing for cases like this where the law doesn;t give a bond. the judge denied it. I did not feel like he was doing a good job for us at all— I did not feel like he represented what he should have. He did not even give the judge any law or anything to support a bond. He just said oh give him a bond he has his family here, blablabla. And the motion he filed was one page long. We hired sheila and my son is right now sitting at home with me. She filed this very long motion, like 20 pages, she found witnesses, she brought evidence of other bad things the other guy had done before that shows he was probably the bad guy here too and my son was only protecting himself. She told the judge about cases that was exactly like our case that was made basically to persuade him to change his mind from the last time we asked for bond. The state didn’t even say anything new. They kept saying the same thing they said the last time. but now there was new evidence and testimony and cases, but they still said nothing new. They looked surprised, like oh im not prepared, OOPS! Thats the other thing about sheila—she was so cool calm collected but she was so prepared!!! I was proud to have her there for my son and i thank god for her.

The absolute best!
After my injury, I felt completely lost and vulnerable. Having never experienced anything like this before I didn’t know what to do or who to turn to… and then a friend recommended Theodore Enfield to me. From day one, I hung up the phone with a sigh of relief, feeling a huge burden was lifted off my shoulders. I knew I had placed my “burden” in their trusted hands.
Andrew handled my case and was an absolute God send! He is exceptional, very kind and courteous; answered any and all questions I had, and kept me informed every step of the way. I always felt that I was being “heard”. He took the pain out of a painful situation, and gave me the hope and the confidence I needed to move forward. I cannot thank Andrew enough for all he did for me and I 100% recommend this firm to anyone who is looking for honest and trustworthy representation; that goes above and beyond your expectations!

Dear Joseph,
I am writing to convey my deepest gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding legal representation you provided throughout my case. Your unwavering dedication, unparalleled expertise, and relentless commitment were instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome that surpassed my expectations.
From the outset, your thorough understanding of the complexities of my situation instilled confidence in me. Your strategic approach, coupled with a remarkable command of legal nuances, demonstrated the depth of your professional prowess. It was evident that you were not just an attorney but a tireless advocate fighting fervently on my behalf.
During this challenging time, your unwavering support and responsiveness were invaluable. Your ability to navigate the legal intricacies with precision and to communicate complex concepts in a way that I could easily comprehend made a significant difference. I always felt informed, empowered, and confident in the direction we were heading, thanks to your transparent and communicative style.
Your tireless efforts and commitment to pursuing the best possible outcome for me were truly commendable. The results achieved under your guidance were beyond my wildest expectations, and I am genuinely grateful for the positive resolution that seemed unattainable before you took on my case.
In the realm of legal representation, you stand out as an exceptional attorney with a rare combination of skill, dedication, and empathy. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have had you as my advocate, and I will be forever thankful for the pivotal role you played in securing a favorable resolution.
Thank you, Joseph, for being more than just a legal representative – for being a beacon of support, a tenacious advocate, and ultimately, the key to the success of my case. Your exceptional work has left an indelible mark, and I will not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate attorney.
With heartfelt thanks,
Vitaliy

I hired Mr Zager for a specific reason and then decided to go with another attorney..Mr Zager refused to give me back my initial retainer claiming that he did work equaling that amount of money even thought it wasn’t true..Apparently he feels that $1500.00 for less than one hours work is fair..Be mindful of what you are signing with this one..

Be careful of hiring this guy. He is insidious. He called me after my criminal case was dropped Nolle Prosequi. Talked me into signing a contingency retainer to sue for police misconduct and false arrest. He held on the case for 3 months as the deadline to file before statue of limitations runs out. When I call now hangs hangs up the phone because of reasons he will not say. My opinion is he wants money UPFRONT or he will try to claim it was his case now that I signed on another Lawyer!! Becarefull when a lawyer wants to sign on too fast. My Opinion of this man is horrid!!! Stay Away!!!!

We are so thankful for David and his team at Blue lotus law firm in Fort Lauderdale. We had a criminal case and he knew exactly how to handle it. He always kept us in the loop and always kept us informed. His team fought all the way and the end result was exactly what we had wanted. I would highly recommend again, extremely professional. Thank you David for believing in us- from Michelle.

I actually met David as a veteran practicing yoga. Little did I know that he would be my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. David was more than a lawyer, and a very good one, with a stellar reputation of respect from the bench, attorney coworkers, and the community. He wasn't afraid of a David and Goliath situation, and walked me through some very confusing and difficult times. I can never repay the kindness, and so I pay it forward the best that I can. He will always hold a special place in my memory, and heart. His services were phenomenal, and I did win. Thank you David.

David is amazing and has handled my wife and I's cases for almost 4 years. I have never had anything more than a speeding ticket, but last October I made the biggest mistake of my life. I was in jail and told my wife to call David Eddy. I was worried I might lose my job and fall in to enormous debt. David never promised too much, but always made it clear he was giving it his all to help my case. In the end my case was settled and negotiated 8 months later with incredibly reduced sentence and requirements. This could have affected my life for up to 10 years, but will only truly affect me for 3-6 months, then will be sealed and expunged. He is practical, very real, and humble so he will not promise these kind of results to you but great things just tend to happen David's type of expertise and hard work.

Mrs. King was the best decision I chose when hiring a lawyer. She was very professional, and always attentive to my case. Always answered and returned my calls timely.

I would like to recommend TLC because of the great job they have done for me on several occasions.
I wanted to resume my truck driving career after several years and needed to get my CDL license again. I wasn’t able to do this because my regular license had been revoked and the situation was quite a mess. TLC was able to unravel the situation and in a matter of days my license was re-instated. I was then able to get my CDL and begin my truck driving career again. This was truly a life-changing experience for me.
A little later an old ticket for some reason showed up on my record and my CDL was revoked. TLC was able to rectify this situation in a matter of hours and I was back in the truck again.
I highly recommend TLC for the care and diligence they have shown me.

I want to be clear and tell everyone that Attorney Vizcarrando is a really good attorney. Not long ago I was pulled over because my brake lights were not working and I did not know my license was suspended. If i recall correctly my license was suspended because previous to being pulled over that day I had missed a court date for not driving with my license in my wallet, when I failed to appear for that minor citation(I forgot ) I was sick my license was suspended. Not only was my license suspended I had an warrant for my arrest that said they pick me up at home or at my place of employment. I was terrified! I called the Ticket Clinic and they could not explain to me clearly what was going on and how to solve it. And their attitude was pay us and well take care of it. That scared me as well but attorney Vizcarro explained to me that their was nothing to worry about and gave me the total price for his services and he even let me finance his service with a small downpayment I need to finance his service I didnt have all the money at the time. Well to make a long story short he got the warrant removed in a few days and got the case dismissed. I was so relieved I cant thank God enough for leading me to attorney Vizcarrondo. I hope anyone reading this review finds the peace i found when hiring this attoreny.

I contacted this firm to help me process a traffic ticket. I ended up 6 months later NOT receiving notice of the court's decision thus I ended up paying not only Vizarrondo's fee but an additional fee of $60 for late payment AND the original fine itself so I am out of pocket about $120. I would have been better served paying the fine in the first place and if necessary attending driving school. They claim they sent me notice of the court decision but funny I never received it BUT I did receive the warning from the court for non payment. This was after I had called the lawyers office on two separate occasions to find out the status of my case.

John Howes is a highly competent and effective criminal defense attorney. He is an unusually creative pre-trial lawyer, and also a Powerful and compelling presenter in the Courtroom. John Howes knows how to win when possible, or position you for the best outcome when the cards are clearly stacked against you. He is unique in his ability to accomplish things other lawyers cannot. My case was dismissed in Federal Court and all charges were dropped. He stood with me through the multi-month pre-trial battle, filing of creative motions to move the judge for a hearing. Then three full days of pre-trial courtroom battle followed. Two weeks later the hardnosed prosecutor decided to dismiss my case. I highly recommend John Howes.

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.
