So first off I want to give a BIG THANKS to Cindy and everyone at the firm especially Cara! The one that stood for me, she and everyone else has been great! If anyone reading this has ANY hesitation on hiring, take this review as a sign to hire! I was in a serious case with multiple felony charges, and horrible sentences I could be facing and man was I stressing! Did endless research on attorneys and looked to see what their grade was and if they had any bad doing. Amazing ratings on Cindy, even recommended by other attorneys! Everyone at the firm was so helpful and probably got annoyed by how much I called but it was for good reason haha, they are all so polite and helpful and they are so easy to reach! Felt Like having a lawyer on standby with a press of a button with how fast Cindy picks up, she even answers on the weekends personally! She worked along side Cara who was the main attorney on my case and she is AMAZING! She Really addressed all my concerns, let me know exactly what was happening with my case at all times and letting me know what she’s working on and if things went south, what she would want to do in that circumstance. I called so much, but she continued to reassure me that I’ll be alright and she’s got my back. She kept me in the loop at all times, I will 1,000 percent recommend this firm! She got everything done for me in a timely manner and got ALL CHARGES DROPPED!!!! Call now and get a consultation asap!

They fought to get me amount that I felt my case was worth. Trent communicated with me continuously and it made me feel a great amount of transparency. I had no idea what I was getting into with a large car accident but they made everything easy.

I met with Mr Noland on the recommendation of a friend. Mr Noland walked me through the court process explaining in detail what he thought would happen and my options. He was clear on his fee”s and he made sure I understood what I was facing before I left his office. A few months later when my charges were filed I contacted Mr Noland. I was surprised when he in fact told me to try a public defender first. He told me he used to be one himself and they get a bad wrap. He assured me that he would take my case if in fact I was not happy with my council. In the end Mr Noland saved me a great deal of money as I had no lawyer fees. I would recommend Mr Noland without hesitation. Set up a meet and talk with him yourself. You will be glad you did. Whatever your circumstances you want this man fighting for you. The only mistake that can be made is not retaining him. Good luck to you

Phil Nolan took my case almost 20 years ago. I was a handful. He handled my state case and during that time I picked up a federal case. Looking at toe tag payroll, he worked a miracle. He never gave up on me. Or my partners. He literally saved all of us. I highly recommend retaining him . I have an unconditional respect for this attorney. He is my guardian angel..

I couldn't have hired a better attorney to represent me. He conducted interviews which left me in awe. Just be honest and he will find the best avenue for you. Honest, hard working and to the point. If your looking for someone that will fight for you, Marc Adair is the guy you are looking for.

posted 12/18/13 (the site auto inserted 3 years ago for some reason) If you have been charged with a DUI, you can do no better than retaining the Law Offices of David Michael Cantor. If you are as fortunate as me, you will get the pleasure of being represented by Eric S. Rothblum. He and others in his firm not only made the entire process as clear and understandable as can be, he and his associates achieved what I can hardly believe was possible. Allow me to summarize all they did for me: My attorney, Eric Rothblum and another of his associates Jonathan achieved a small miracle. Twice! Their thorough understanding of the law, procedure, the odds of pursuing one or another approach to my defense, and their ability to create a strategy and game plan for me then bring it to life, literally gave me back my freedom. Christine, a senior member of the firm and Destiny, Eric's Legal Assistant were equally impressive in the ways they made it possible for me to get the best possible counsel and outcomes. If you want the very best counsel and defense, hire The Law Offices of David Michael Cantor. I found them using a google search, was impressed by their site and my initial call to them, and was simply blown AWAY with what they achieved for me! If you are in need of representation for a DUI charge, I hope you read this. Then call them. They are incredible at what they do. One million "Thank you"s! KPJ

Eric obtained the absolutely best possible result for me in my case. I could not be happier with or more impressed by his representation. Eric is extremely knowledgeable about the applicable laws and the intricacies of the judicial and penal systems and provided wise and comprehensible strategic advice. I trusted his judgment implicitly and it paid off enormously for me. At the same time, Eric was reassuring, supportive, non-judgmental and a genuinely pleasant person.

This review for Mr. Morton was long over due. I would like to express my gratitude and my appreciation for everything that Mr. Morton has done for me in a legal matter. He went above and beyond my expectations and his determination was also acknowledged by the Judge in my legal matter. As a Military Veteran, he is a man of his word and someone you can trust.

A real joke. Worded the quash incorrectly three times and left me on my own after he was paid via venmo. He never submitted the paperwork and to this day has not returned the same to me per his statement to the Bar complaint arbitrator. Be careful.

Getting married is easy, divorce was hard. I was recommended Mr. Morton's service and I could not be more pleased, He is knowledgeable, kind, patient and very dedicated to his client. Mr. Morton fought for me and my children in a highly sensitive situation. For those who need a lawyer that will completely stand by you and fight for you, I more than recommend Mr. Morton. Thank you Sir for all of your help and guidance, you are truly a God send.

Mr Baker was assigned to me by the public defenders office. Mr Baker did a wonderful job in defending my case. My only complaint would be getting in contact with him. But In his defense he has many other people he has to deal with on a daily basis. Overall I was very happy with his services.

Todd Baker a father , a family man , a true public defender. Many of the men and women that work in the circuit courts dont get enough credit. He never made me feel he didnt have my back. Im still in a court process currently with him. He put my mind at ease immediately. Most public defenders talk deals out of the gate , not Todd. He understands the law and his clients needs. It was easy to tell him the truth because he isnt judging you. Most Public Defenders get a bad comment. These men and women have a passion for the law and take lower pay scales to help those in need. I strive to have that much honor. Todd made me feel like a person and is not worried if he has to go to trial. This man knows his stuff about the law and knows people makes mistakes. I went to his office for hours and it didnt cost me a cent. What would this cost with attorneys in private just for one hour ? He cleared all the other files on his desk immediately. If you ask for a true public defender ask for him by name. He puts your mind at ease , im sure its not easy to balance his life and be your support , but he does this well. He went to work on my case immediately and was open to every idea I had. We talked through every aspect of my case. He is helping save my family and my reputation as a father and Network administrator. I respect this man for all he is doing to help me . Thank you Todd for protecting me and putting my mind at ease , thanks for being there for me in my darkest hour.

He not only helped me get the lowest charges and deal possbile he treated me like more then a client, he treated my like family which is important because to Glover it's about fighting for his clients to get a second chance at restorative justice giving them the ability to be rehabilitated and not more tramutized by being incarcerated allowimg them to prove they can be productive members of society. I would high recommend him to anyone if you have a criminal case he will not let you down he will fight for you as long as your willing to fight for youself.

Jim helped us out with a very hateful and not so stable next door neighbor, long story. We needed a great lawyer that would listen to our problems and be there to be that smart voice to know how to protect us from crazy lies and pitchforks. We were found innocent and even having to deal with several other neighbors being called to testify against us, Jim had all their stories shown as lies and protected us from some unknown path from more issues. THANK YOU JIM, no more loss of sleep and tons of stress. you are the best!

I am an average person, I am not a criminal, I have never been in trouble in my entire life... when I was charged with 9 felonies and was forced to use a public defender as my attorney, I was scared. By the grace of God, Mark Dwyer is my defense attorney. As a person who has never been wrapped up in the legal system, I had no idea what this three ring circus had in store for me. Mark has put a lot of time and effort into my case, he is incredibly skilled at what he does, he knows his way around the courtroom, knows every motion to file, he has hired expert witnesses and teamed up with another attorney to create a defense team for my case. He has truly been a blessing. I just hope that all public defenders are one quarter as dedicated to thier craft and as knowlegeable as Mark is.

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.
