I retained attorney Mendini for a traffic ticket (red light violation) in North Carolina. She did an excellent job, using her legal knowledge and experience to come up with a good plan. The result was the ticket was dismissed. I was thrilled with the excellent result. She also has excellent communications, kept me informed throughout. I highly recommend her. I am very grateful to attorney Mendini for her skills, knowledge, drive and energy.

My experience with Freddie handling my divorce was top tier! He is always professional and he kept me updated every step of the way, from advice to handling motions and actions on my behalf. His constant communication made the whole process seem completely seamless. Knowing that he was consistently working on my behalf, eased any anxiety and stress that would’ve been there with anyone else. Freddie Cruz is my first and only call whenever i have a legal matter to be handled.

First, if you want a phenomenal attorney, call Freddie Cruz. If he can't help you.....he will get you in the right direction. Freddie isn't a typical attorney. Every issue that he has handled for my family has had his heart and soul poured into it. I hired Freddie last week. I attempted to resolve the civil issue myself and gave up and called him. Should have called him to begin with and let him review my contract to get me in the right direction. He resolved the issue of non-payment within a few days. Not months or years, or worse going to court. His sternness but sincerity got the job done. I am a repeat client and Freddie and Anna are phenomenal to work with. If you need an attorney, Freddie Cruz should be your first call.

Mr. Harris was extremely kind and eager to help me with my case. He took the time to review all of my documentation with me one on one where he provided valuable insights into some of the claims I was facing. He then proceeded to check in with me after our initial consult, to see how the legal process was progressing, and to ensure I was receiving legal counsel to help resolve the matter. It was very clear to me after that initial meeting with Zac, that he is passionate about helping others, and is dedicated to his profession. I would, without hesitation, recommend Mr. Harris' firm to anyone seeking assistance for civil suit representation!

I reached out to Eboni for assistance with communicating with the courts about fines and fees I received over 10 years ago. I now live out of state, so it would cost a ton of money to fly back and forth from Ohio to NC to remedy my situation and it is affecting my privileges to drive, she got back to me promptly with detailed information on what I needed to do to handle the situation. I had multiple driving infractions in two different counties and she was able to get most of the charges against me dropped. She communicated with me very effectively and made sure I understood what to do. She is affordable and saved me a lot of time. 10/10, definitely recommend.

Al Messer's calm and composed demeanor, coupled with his extensive knowledge of the judiciary system, proved to be a winning combination in my case. Let's not forget about Sara! She was on top of her game, making sure I was always well-prepared and fully aware of what to expect. Their open lines of communication were key, as they always returned my calls in a timely manner and kept me in the loop. It's safe to say that their exceptional expertise and teamwork made a winning team in my case all charges were dismissed and my record expunged. I can not say enough amazing things about these two, I can’t thank them enough for all they did for me.

In the summer of 2023, I was experiencing one of the most difficult times of my life. I was possibly facing over five years in prison for a bizarre crime, I did not commit. Fortunately, I had grown up with a former President of the Buncombe County Bar Association, who was more than willing to recommend a stellar criminal attorney—Al Messer. Fortunately, Mr. Messer was willing and available to represent me. He immediately returned my call and instantly put me at ease. He never sugarcoated my situation; in fact, he made sure that I was well prepared for the worst possible situation. He let me know that he believed in my innocence (which was very important to me) and anticipated my exoneration, while also advising me how to prepare for the worst, just in case. During the many months leading up to my trial, we maintained regular contact while we strategized, reviewed, and prepped. He and Sara, his assistant, took the time to talk me down off the metaphorical edge, as needed. I felt confident in my representation every step of the way. While so much of this situation was beyond my control, it was therapeutic to feel that I was taking part in my own defense as Al was very willing to consider my input while always applying his experience and expertise. This was quite helpful in a situation where you often feel so helpless. During the trial proceedings, it became apparent, very quickly, that Mr. Messer was delivering a higher caliber of representation than people, in Marion, were accustomed to seeing. Several members of the DA’s staff sat in the audience to view his arguments and techniques. An employee of the DA’s office was even overheard stating that I had gotten my money’s worth. I couldn’t have agreed more. I am so happy that I hired an attorney from Asheville instead of my hometown. When facing any serious offense, please hire the very best representation available. You definitely get what you pay for, and your freedom, employability, and reputation are not things to cut corners on. Lastly, although my heart is so full of gratitude that my four-day trial concluded with a not-guilty verdict, in less than fifteen minutes, I am particularly pleased that Mr. Al Messer represented me in a way that makes me proud. In a field often populated with people of questionable character, Mr. Messer successfully represented me using brilliance, sound reasoning, experience, and tenacity without resorting to badgering, bullying, or lying; he didn’t have to. He was able to use his knowledge of the law and the facts of the case to appeal to the jury in a way that allowed everyone on my side to hold our head’s head. Trust me—if you are fortunate enough to be represented by Al Messer, at Messer Law, your legal nightmare will be mitigated as much as possible. I honestly could not be more thankful to him and his office. If you have any specific questions, feel free to reach out to me on Facebook. Michelle Wilson-Cline

Jay White is an increadible attorney with 30 plus years of experience, which is one of the traits to a great attorney. I initially went with a popular online law firm that specializes in tickets… and they were too green in handling a case like mine. The benefits of using an attorney like Mr. White is his years of experience, and he personally looks at your case and takes an approach based off that case and not out to make a quick buck and put it on the pipeline. Jay White proved his swift and efficient representation, which is what you expect from a high caliber attorney. He has a very efficient, honest, and transparent team that comes along with his representation. I do not live in NC but that wasn’t a problem, he took care of everything and I am incredibly satisfied with the outcome of my case. Consider Jay White for your next representation you are in good hands.

Chris is hands down the best attorney I could have ever chose to handle my case. This was a first offense dui level 1 for me so being scared was an understatement. He assured me several times to breathe he would handle this. Everything Chris did for me was top notch and always reminded me he will take care of me. Standing beside him in-front of a judge I felt safe and secure. Needless to say he’s 1 of a kind and I can’t put into words what he did for me and my family. My dui went from a level 1 to a level 5. All because of a mistake my life wasn’t ruined, we worked together and I did as he said and sure enough he saved me, my family, my life. Thank you Chris and your whole staff I couldn’t recommend you more. Not only did he keep me from jail time; he also saved me from losing license. If you don’t hire him it’s your own mistake. He’s hands down the best in the business

We hired Mr. White to handle our insurance claims. He was professional and compassionate, even showing up to support us at hearings for the criminal case against the other driver. Mr. White negotiated with five different insurance companies to get us the maximum settlement. Our medical bills amounted to over $150,000, but he was able to settle with our insurance for around $12,000. On top of that, he also secured a settlement for our minor child that was over and above the limits of our policy.

As a mother who has been in the trenches both professionally and a mother fighting the war on drugs, found herself with a son who for over a decade fighting prison and addiction. As a last ditch effort (after all went wrong) my son again was on the wrong side. I have had society telling me to walk away. As a mother it is not easy. It took me almost a month trying to say, "walk away", throw the keys away, be done!! Then one morning early I got up and said no!! I will find someone for once who will support me!! I did just exactly that!! I was scared to death!!! But this time I knew I could not do it alone!!! I found Woody White. I thought he would be just like all the others in the past! Get it done and over with, put my son in prison, let me take your monies and then be done with you and your addict son! This is a decade of a sick young man who is good when sober. If you are reading this, you know that I speak the truth. This was in fact the total opposite of Mr. White. He knew the pain in my eyes, on my face, as well as his staff. They felt the tears and heartache! They treated me and my son like we were family. Mr. White and his staff never judged my son nor myself. They knew he came from a good home. And if he did not, they did not care! My recommendations to all family members who are need of legal defense for family members who are in trouble with the Judicial System (especially while young or decades of addiction) Please call Mr. White and his staff today.

A family of tenants in my rental house stopped paying rent. I googled Wilmington attorneys and had the good fortune to call David Collins. Although he told me his office does not do evictions, David took the time to give me direction and told me many attorneys do not do evictions. The forms are readily available at the office of the clerk of court and are not a terribly complicated process so that individuals can do it themselves. he said to call him if I ran into any road blocks and we could do a consultation then if necessary. His advice very helpful.

After enduring 18 months of anxiety over a felony level criminal case Antonio kept up on the details of the plaintiffs background and veracity of claims. Engaged with the prosecution and the case resolved with dismissal. I always felt that he took my case personally and worked hard to prepare for trial after I refused to plea out of the case.

Attorney Gerald is the perfect attorney for making sure your case is handled with care and precision. He likes to have his information and evidence gathered thoroughly in order to obtain maximum efficiency. He is a problem solver while also keeping a cool and level head. Very keen on details. He took the time to reassure me, as a client, that the situation would be subdued in the smoothest way possible. I had never been in any legal trouble in my life. I was charged incorrectly with AWDW and in our first meeting he was able to quickly extract that my case was actually self defense and defense of others. Attorney Gerald made sure that the evidence of my case was heard clearly by the ADA and that the full picture was understood. Without the proper context the situation could have went to extreme levels that could have had permanent effects on my life and record overall. Greatfully, my charges were dismissed in a controlled and timely manner . He did a fantastic job, especially during the confusion of a pandemic and I couldn't thank him enough for protecting my innocence in the way he did. I will never forget what was done for me.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You

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

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

When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?

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

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

What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?

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

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

How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?

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

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

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

How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?

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

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

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

Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

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

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

How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer

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

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

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

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

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

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