Absolute Scam and Unprofessional Behavior Jeremy, I hired you to help with a bogus speeding ticket, where I have clear dash cam footage showing my speed, location, and the officer’s actions before and after the stop. The officer claimed I was going 80 in a 45, wrote the wrong location of the stop, and the speed limit on that road was actually 55. My speedometer was at 61, clearly shown on the dash cam. Yet, you had the nerve to tell me you could “maybe” reduce the ticket to a 14-over, despite knowing the entire ticket was a joke. After this ridiculous introduction, I called the very next day—over a month before the court date—and requested a refund. Your desk lady assured me I’d get a full refund. But today, I get a call telling me the case was continued (even though I fired you), and now you’re only offering half of my payment back because you “spent 20 minutes” on my case? That’s a load of crap. Then, to top it off you have the audacity to threaten me with legal action if I dispute this scam through my bank. You’re not even competent enough to handle a simple case like this and now you’re acting like a crook. I honestly feel bad for your firm that you’re so desperate for this money, but I’ll be sure to keep on sharing my experience the community. Keep the half—you clearly need it more than I do. Shameful.

Unless you're just dealing with a speeding ticket, then run. He didn't help, actually mage EVERYTHING a hundred times worse and ruined my life without a second thought or care. Be careful who you trust with important situations. And by that I mean, go somewhere else.

I am very happy with the results of the case, and would recommend this Law Firm to anyone with a not-at-fault accident.

I had a 20 year old case that I was notified was not resolved. I had several attorneys try and resolve the case but said the courts could not find the records so they could go no further. Christopher R. Detwiler law firm took the case and had it dismissed. He was able to do what 3 other law firms inthe area said could not be done. It literally gave me my life back. It still amazes me that I was told it can’t be done, and he did it. Thank you very much to Chris and his law firm!!!!

As a woman emerging from an abusive relationship, my trust in others, especially men, was at an all-time low. Trevor Guyton exceeded my expectations as both an attorney and a person. From the beginning, he was intentional about earning my trust, and I found myself able to be completely transparent with him—not just about my criminal history, but about who I was as a whole. Trevor provided a safe, non-judgmental space and treated me as if I deserved nothing less than the best possible defense. His respect, compassion, and dedication were evident from start to finish. Trevor made it his mission to ensure I got home to my children, but he didn’t stop there. He went above and beyond by putting protections in place to safeguard me from any future legal challenges that could threaten my freedom. His commitment to my case was unwavering. He made me feel like I was his top priority, and he demonstrated this not only by being incredibly responsive and visiting me with updates, but also by regularly communicating with my family. I never felt like just another case to him. Despite being a young attorney, Trevor showed a level of skill, empathy, and dedication that far surpassed my expectations. I initially worried that his career ambitions might hold him back from pushing boundaries in court, but those fears were completely unfounded. Trevor fought for me with everything he had—he defended me not only with the law, but also with an understanding of my humanity and worth. While securing my release was a priority, Trevor's foresight in protecting me from potential future legal vulnerabilities was truly remarkable. He made sure that I was not left vulnerable to any challenges that might arise down the road, ensuring my long-term safety and legal security. His attention to detail and deep sense of responsibility made me feel protected in every sense of the word. Trevor Guyton at Marcilliat & Mills PLLC is not just an excellent attorney—he is a genuine, compassionate human being who takes his clients' well-being to heart. If you need legal representation, look no further. With Trevor by your side, you can rest assured that you are in the best possible hands.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Trevor Guyton from Marcillat & Mills, and I can confidently say that my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From our very first meeting, Mr.Guyton took the time to listen to my concerns and clearly explained the legal process I was facing. Their expertise and professionalism were evident throughout the entire process. Mikalea Torres (Trevor Guyton's paralegal) provided prompt responses to all my questions and kept me informed at every stage of my case. What truly impressed me was their ability to simplify complex legal jargon, making everything easy to understand. Thanks to Trevor Guyton's hard work and dedication, I achieved a favorable outcome in my case. I genuinely felt supported and valued as a client, which is rare to find. I highly recommend Marcilliat & Mills to anyone seeking knowledgeable and compassionate legal representation. Thank you for making a stressful situation much more manageable!

Robert Parrott of Parrott Law Firm handled a misdemeanor criminal case for one of our family members. He provided us with detailed information before the court proceedings and valuable guidance in making decisions as to how to continue. He was well prepared for the court proceedsings and his familiarity with the court system provided a tremendous advantage. He always explained what would be happening in easy-to-understand language not in legal terminology. He showed he really cares about his clients. He was compassionate, thoughful, and sympathetic about our situation and the client. He treated the client with respect under difficult circumstances. One of the wonderful qualities of Robert Parrott is his immediate response when you contacted him. Communication is key in any situation, and he always returned our calls, texts, or emails very quickly. Which in this day and age is very imprssive. It brought peace of mind knowing he was only a call away to answer any question. We cannot speak highly enough regarding the knowledge and professionalism of Robert Parrott. We enthusiastically recommend him.

Shannon has been a life saver for me. She took my case when no one else would even talk to me. I was being harassed and bullied by a large company and no one wanted to fight for the “little guy” except Shannon. She was fantastic. The large company was attempting to retaliate against me and she quickly identified they had breached their own contract. Shannon took them on and pushed them back. Shannon was very responsive and has a keen attention to detail. She truly wants to fight for those who can’t fight for themselves. I’m sincerely indebted.

Mr. Brinkley has advised me on two separate occasions. He is extremely knowledgeable, but also kind. He took the time to listen and show empathy when I was feeling afraid and uncertain. The law is the law, but it takes someone with real skill and heart to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives and meet them where they are. Mr. Brinkley knows the law, but it’s that certain 'X' factor—the way he treats people—that truly sets him apart from the rest. If I ever need representation again, I will gladly call upon him. Mr. Brinkley, Thank you. -Daniel

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.
