Parham law firm investigated my case and noticed details that everyone else missed, resulting in a overwhelming victory in trial. There's no doubt in my mind that hiring any other law firm would have been a mistake.

Having a difficult situation arise, I turned to Rose Mary Parham and her firm for advice. They were extremely attentive through, text, cell phone, office phone and other means of communication. If you want a lawyer that will believe in you and truly care about her clients and fight fiercely, then I urge you to choose Rose Mary Parham. She made me feel at ease, and helped me through a rough time. Thank you for your commitment to excellence in your field, your candor merits praise.

Axlerod Associates took care of me. I was treated unfairly by State Police, after I had a car accident, where the officer asked me to do a breathalyzer, and I told him several times, I'll try my best, and due to my breathing issues, it showed incomplete sample. I asked him to take me for a blood test at the hospital, and the officer refused to do so. He put me in jail overnight, to be arranged, about I'm 18 hours later, stating that I refused the BAC , when I clearly did not.
I contacted the Axlerod Law firm, and they took care of everything.
In the end, I ended up with a fine, and a minor charge for reckless driving, rather than a DUI

I went to the office to discuss a possible case, I carried my medical records with me and 5 or 6 months later there has been no calls, emails, no contract none.
The firm hasn't even bothered to return my medical records back to me. This would be 0 stars if it was possible. I guess my case wasn't big enough for them to bother with.

I would absolutely recommend Mr. Harbin to anyone. He is a very knowledgeable, honest man who works hard for the right things. He never missed a beat with my injury case and would not settle until he knew it would be worth it. He explained everything throughout this process in a way that I would understand, considering I am still young & this being my first time going through something like this. I am very thankful to have had him represent me!

Taylor was more than great to deal with, he took all the hassle out of it, and got me rewarded more than fairly. I truly appreciate what he did. He was honest and straight up with me about what it was, and what it wasn't, and what we could, and could not do. He did what he said he would do, all while keeping me as informed as I needed to be, but never troubled me with anything. I could not have asked for a better performance; I didn't know it was a possibility. I hate that I had to wreck my truck to meet Taylor but I'm sure glad that my friend, Bruce sent me his way. It has been more than a pleasure doing business with Anderson & Schuster.

In October 2020 I injured my shoulder in a car accident. The best decision I ever made was trusting in Taylor Schuster at Anderson & Schuster. From the beginning I knew I was in great hands. Mr. Schuster kept me informed step by step throughout the process and being informed allowed me to focus on my surgery and recovery. When my case was settled, I was more than pleased with the outcome. By choosing Anderson & Schuster I felt like I was a part of the family. I'd never wish a car accident upon anyone, but if the worst happens, I highly recommend you give Taylor Schuster a call.

Steve and Deborah are great to work with...prompt, personable and they got results. It was an awful time in my life after injuries from my accident but they were patient and understanding. I was happy that we were able to settle before trial, however, I had the confidence that this attorney would not back down. I had heard he was a "bulldog" in the courtroom. I will do further work with their firm.

I cannot say enough great things about Strom Law Firm, and especially attorney Bakari Sellers. From the moment I connected with them, I felt not just like a client, but like a person who truly mattered. Bakari Sellers is an incredible attorney—his compassion and empathy are evident in every interaction, yet he is also a fierce and unwavering advocate when it comes to fighting for his clients.
He takes the time to listen, understand, and provide guidance with care, but when it’s time to stand up and fight, his strength, knowledge, and determination shine through. His ability to balance both compassion and strength is what sets him apart.
The entire team at Strom Law Firm is professional, responsive, and genuinely dedicated to their clients’ best interests. If you are looking for a firm that will not only stand by you but also stand up for you, I highly recommend them. Bakari Sellers and the team are truly the best at what they do!

I used heather Moore at axelrod for a custody case. As a father I was very worried for a lot of things. The whole team was awesome and very professional. I was advised greatly of steps I should take to have the best outcome. Before we went to court the custody situation was a nightmare. Once I called them and got the legal action going I received full custody and had great communication the entire time from everyone involved on my side. Heather Moore is great at what she does and forever thankful. They were also very affordable and never had crazy high fees in any way. Thank you again.

Not a good representation at all. Multiple conversations on the same topics uncountable times to milk your money. She take notes only not to have them later. To many phone calls a day asking one question then hanging you on the phone to lengthen the conversation then turn around and do the same thing again . Not to mention over charging me for the time.
When I called this tactic to her attention to ask all questions needed. The conversation was not pleasant.
I saw that the financial statement was only to see what the max you could pay. What attorney burns up your entire retainer balance in 3 hours.
I could go on, but enough said.

I used this law firm recently and am very satisfied with the results. This firm saved me money by keeping the case from going through the courthouse and an excellent mediator was used for litigation instead. My attorney was straight forward, knowledgeable of the law and thorough, which means you will be doing some work to win your case. I absolutely recommend this law firm because they will get you the result you want!

This will be a long review but my divorce was long and it is necessary to highlight all the ways Greg helped me. My case was complicated from the start as my estranged husband refused to participate at all in the divorce. He just ignored all requests for any paperwork to even get the process started. He moved out of state to further frustrate the reach of SC courts. Attorney Forman was knowledgeable in filing extensions when these antics required it. He was able to navigate through the courts even collaborating up to get action through the Pennsylvania courts to enforce SC motions.
Attorney Forman did not budge at all even though my ex was making everything as difficult as he could. When I finally got my day in court for finalizing my divorce, Greg made sure to put things on record to ensure if my ex decided to later continue that I was protected and ready.
I do not wish Attorney Forman to have any cases like mine ever again but he is more than capable of handling even the difficult ones. He is amazing and I always knew he was fighting for me and I was in good hands.

Mr Forman has a straightforward and no nonsense approach. If you like clear communication and clear expectations, and you dont want to waste time with the drama or theater that often accompanies divorce, he is the right choice for you. I found him to be very easy to work with, extremely intelligent and skilled. He took the things that were the most important (for me) into account, and handled my divorce in alignment to those.

Mr Mills and his team are the best family court attorneys in town. He fully understands the law and the lawfare used by SCDSS in the family court system and is patient, precise in revealing the truth and shining light on deceit and manipulation that runs rampant within SCDSS. The whole process has made me realize that SCDSS lacks any real oversight other than family court judges and attorneys like Mr mills and his team keeping them in check. If you need an attorney to shine the light on the darkness, do not hesitate, you have found him right here. Thank you Mr. Mills, Justin and Denise!

If you need a divorce attorney, I highly recommend Mr. Gregory Forman. I hired Mr. Forman on October 16th 2024 to take over my case as I was served divorce papers on March 1st 2024 and the case was lingering with no results. Mr. Forman was incredibly knowledgeable about divorce law and worked diligently to protect my interests. Mr. Forman was always available to answer questions.
Mr. Forman filed my financial declaration in 2 days and in less than 2 weeks responded and filed my response to production.
Mr. Forman handled negotiations and settlements and helped me achieve a fair outcome. The case was mediated and resolved in 2 months.
Divorce is very stressful why add more stress just hire the BEST ATTORNEY I AM HAPPY I DID

I consulted with 15 lawyers and hired 2 two lawyers prior to finding Mr. Forman. Not only was he able to finally put an end to my horrific 2.5 year divorce case, but he did it quickly and at a fraction of the cost. He is a man of few words and a man of action. He was extremely accessible and shattered the norm for how poorly my previous lawyers treated me. Mr. Forman spotted helpful issues that my other attorneys didn’t, and he strategized in a way that moved my case forward quickly, negotiating a settlement offer I am extremely happy with. My biggest regret was not hiring him sooner. Don’t waste your time looking any further than Mr. Forman!

I was issued a speeding ticket in Myrtle Beach, SC in June of 2023. When I returned to MD, I received mail from David Melnyk's law firm to represent me. Well, he did an amazing job at representing me. Outside of the reasonable attorney fee. I didn’t pay a dime and my case was dismissed. I didn't pay the ticket fees paid, and I didn't pay the court cost, just attorney fees. I had an officer that didn’t want to give me a break and for almost a year David provided updates and kept me in the loop as to what was going on. I was so relieved to have this behind me and thanks so much for your assistance in getting this ticket dismissed. Throughout the entire process, he kept me updated and in the loop. Highly recommended!!!

When I was put under investigation with my Command pending Court Martial, I didn't know who to turn to for help. Thankfully I came across MJA's law firm website and immediately hired Mr. Hill after consultation and looking over their reviews. After 7 long months of waiting, the week of my Court Martial came and I would see the fearlessness and confidence of Mr. Hill in the courtroom. He tore apart the government's theory piece by piece which would result in the outcome in our favor. I trusted him with my career on the line, and he was outstanding. I 10/10 would highly recommend Mr. Hill to anyone who is going through legal challenges with their command.

I was fortunate to stumble upon Mr. Hill during my initial search for legal representation back in September of 2021. My command suspected me of disobeying a lawful order and started processing me for separation. Through the diligent work of Mr. Hill and his fellow associates, the Administrative Separations Board members determined 'No Basis' for the allegations against me. It was a direct result of the countless hours Mr. Hill put into the written matters of the case that paved the road to victory. Every 6105 and adverse fit-rep the command issued was subsequently countered and torn apart. Mr. Hill is an unrelenting force within the legal sphere, working until the work is done. If not for the dedication to craft, that Mr. Hill demonstrates on a daily basis, the outcome of the case would have been significantly different. If you are seeking legal assistance, seek no further. You have already found the best.

He went out of his way to direct me on how to get out of a petty ticket free of charge. He offered to take the case for a small fee or give me the steps to handle it myself. I took him up on his offer and everything went exactly as he stated. Give this man a call if you need representation, or just advice.

About three years ago I was pulled over for speeding and charged with a first-time offence 0.08 DWI in a small town about 45 minutes from Charlotte, NC. At the time I was a Florida resident and was temporarily in North Carolina for a work project. Having an out of state license only meant more complications to an already delicate subject, so I immediately began looking for the top-rated lawyers in the area. I scheduled meetings with six different law firms and set aside an entire day to interview them, get their opinion on my case, and ultimately decide which would be the best approach forward. I ended up choosing Robert to represent me due to two main reasons which set him apart from the rest:
First, my arrest took place over Labor Day weekend which meant that I would have to wait a couple of days until being able to meet lawyers, so I decided to leave voicemails during the holiday so I could fast-track my appointments the next day. When calling Robert’s listed number, it turned out to be his private cell phone, which he answered even on holiday nonetheless. Not only did he answer my call during off hours, he heard my case and provided comfort in my situation at a time when I needed it most. Good client communication is one of the main attributes I looked for when choosing my lawyer, and Robert went above and beyond in providing answers to all of my questions at a personal level of communication, which was kept throughout the entirety of my case (over three years).
Secondly, when I first met with Robert, we went through my case and he gave me his honest opinion on the most appropriate course of action. Then, he went ahead and told me a bit about his background, he’s past cases and strategies he would use at trial, but what really sold me on him was the advice that he gave me before leaving his office. He said that “regardless of which lawyer I decided to go with, to always make sure that I get the lawyer that I am paying for”. This is due to the fact that big law firms would take my case and would later hand it off to one of their multiple lawyers, which means I would have no control or knowledge of who is actually representing me, which defeats the purpose of doing my research in finding the best lawyer for my case. I found Robert’s advice to be the most honest and helpful out of all the lawyers I interviewed, something which I actually experienced first-hand in one of the meetings with another firm later that day when I asked the name of the lawyer that would get my case and was not provided with a concrete answer. \
Every case is different, and in my situation, Robert suggested to take it all the way to superior court to a jury trial since according to his experience, my case had plenty of evidence in my favor and had a real shot at winning. I followed Robert’s advice and went to trial, in which Robert did an excellent job in addressing the jury and presenting evidence in my defense. The jury could not come to a decision and was pretty evenly split on a guilty/not guilty verdict which ended in a mistrial. However, thanks to Robert, everything worked out in my favor since his negotiation with the DA led to the dismissal of my DWI charge, and Robert also prevented my license from being suspended due to the speeding infraction. All in all, Robert Reeves is an absolutely outstanding, experienced trial lawyer. With Robert you definitely get what you pay for, and since all cases are different, even if such great results as mine might not be an option, hiring Robert Reeves will definitely ensure the best possible outcome for your case.

I was referred to John through legal shield and was skeptical. First impressions are everything and he quickly changed my perception. Not only did he work with me and successfully win my case to keep my daughter safe but him and his paralegal kept me up to date with everything that was going on without me having to reach out. If I would have retained him 13 years ago it would have saved me a ton of stress and I would not have dealt with the issue at hand. John superseded any expectations that I had for a lawyer and I am forever grateful to him and his firm. Keep being awesome and mentoring undergraduate law students, for they will learn an abundance from you!!!!

I was arrested for a DUI after driving home from a double shift. I was extremely tired and found myself taking a wrong turn on the way home which led me to drive upon a DUI check point. After being arrested I contacted Mr. Mussetto late at night and not only did he answer but also showed up the next morning for first appearance. Through the entire process he was by my side giving me sound advise and keeping me informed with developments and court dates. We ended up taking my case to court and his preparation with the facts of the case and the not so prepared handling of the situation by the arresting officer and prosecutor allowed him to soundly have the jury deliver a NOT GUILTY verdict. The best decision I ever made was calling John when I faced the most difficult time in my life.

Ryan Lane and his office staff are to be commended. Mr. Lane represented me to modify a divorce regarding child support. I truly experienced justice with him.

He thoroughly explained why some things would I wanted were in line with child support law and why some things wouldn’t be good because they weren’t in line with the law. He is extremely knowledgeable and presented my case with such finesse that I was astounded! If you want a fair lawyer, Mr. Lane is your man!

Meagan is very aggressive in criminal defense, assesses the situation rapidly, and takes immediate action. She advised me on how to build up evidence for a case, when to proceed with full force prosecution, and when to cut my losses and move on. She was able to meet with me on very short notice. She is very pleasant to interact with and genuinely cares about her clients. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

After being charged with a DUI, drug possession, and a speeding ticket, I was very distraught to say the least. Michael was a positive guiding light and very professional. He accepted my case, and was honest that the outcome may be less than desirable. After a couple of months, all charges were dismissed. Michael always answered my communications and his honesty and capabilities as an attorney were astonishing. 10/10 would recommend.

My experience with Michael O'Sullivan was fantastic. I was involved in an at fault accident with three charges being filed against me. Michael was very professional but also was interested in getting to know the real me. He kept me apprised of all aspects of my case and advised me of my options. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome considering the circumstances. I would wholeheartedly recommend Michael to anyone in need of a lawyer.

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.
