I found myself in an unfortunate situation and needed an attorney. Luke Newman was responsive, caring (yet sometimes short) but dedicated to my case. He worked tirelessly to get the best outcome possible. If you need a criminal defense attorney, I recommend Luke Newman. He got the job done with a favorable outcome for my situation.

I had a great experience with Mr. Newman as my attorney. He was incredibly attentive to every detail, always straight to the point, and kept me in the loop the whole time. He spoke to me in a way that felt personal, almost like family, which I really appreciated. If there’s one thing I’d suggest, itwould be for him to connect a bit more with clients on an emotional level. But overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better advocate. I’d highly recommend Mr. Newman to anyone looking for a dedicated and thorough attorney.

My family and I are very satisfied with the performance Mr Luke made in my case, He was very honest and precise from the beginning, I recommend his services so that you have an aggressive representation and can get the best way out of your problem....

I hired Luke for 2 unfortunate instances. My son needed help and Luke was responsive and got right to work. He answered all my phone calls quickly and explained the situation in clear terms. Both situations were resolved. If I need an attorney again, I would call him.

  “No arrest, case dismissed”   “I hired Luke Newman to represent me during a criminal investigation regarding a sensitive matter.  Luke communicated with authorities who ultimately made a decision not to make any physical arrest.  When the case was eventually brought in court, there was a legal issue with the State’s filing.  Luke recognized this issue from the start and kept me informed.  Ultimately, because of the legal issue, Luke filed a motion to dismiss the case with legal argument.  The judge scheduled a hearing.  The State acknowledged Luke’s arguments and dismissed the case a few days prior to the hearing.  I never had to go to jail and never even had to go to the courthouse.  I was kept up to date the entire time.  I am happy that the matter is now fully behind me.  I am happy with the outcome Luke brought about.” 

I hired Mr. Newman to represent me in a very sensitive case that had dire implications, after many doors were close to manage my case, Mr. Newman was confident and straight forward from the beginning. He was clear about the fees of the case and keeping me up to date and informed about the steps to followed, he was quick to answered every email, since I live down in central Florida it was important for me to keep an open communication with him, he didn’t fail to informe me very step of the way. Mr. Newman worked the case and eventually had the prosecutor and judge working for my interest. The case was resolved with the best outcome and based on that I avoided the potential dire consequences. I can tell Mr. Newman is well respected by the other attorneys. When I had to go to court he was confident, prepared and profesional. I was very happy with Mr. Newman representation and professionalism. He made the impossible, POSSIBLE.

My bad decision led me to Mr. Newman with my first felony possession charge. I live several hours away from the place where the incident took place. He handled all negotiations and court appearances, advocating for me in my absence, and was able to get me into a deferral program local to me so that upon my completion, the felony will be dropped from my record. I am so thankful!

I would highly recommend Attorney Luke Newman. I am familiar with Luke Newman’s work on a case he recently handled. The case was challenging, and if were not for his efforts in carefully investigating the case, evaluating the facts and professionally (but aggressively) arguing for and obtaining a favorable disposition, the outcome could have been much different. Luke Newman is an excellent criminal defense attorney.

Smart, professional, and knowledgeable. Luke helped me with a hit and run case, for which I was wrongly accused. From the beginning I felt like Luke was on my side. He knows the ins and outs of the system. I was offered a plea deal, but Luke knew that he could win this for me, so we turned it down. Luke gave me his personal cell phone number, so that I could call him any time I had a concern. I never had to use it, because I never had a concern with Luke handling my case. He responded right away to any inquiries I had. Ultimately my case was dismissed. I would recommend Luke to anyone who is looking for a winning attorney.

Luke defended my son of serious criminal charges. The case went to trial. To prepare for the trial he even had to find a witness who moved to China. I can tell you that Luke worked very hard in this difficult case and at the end, my son ended up with a plea agreement. I'm very satisfied and very grateful for the services he provided to my son and to us. I highly recommend him. You will find that he is very knowledgeable and well prepared to assist you.

Every person's legal situation is different but without a doubt, hiring Luke Newman was the best decision our family made. I've personally worked in the legal field for over 15 years and am very familiar with the behind the scenes operation of a law office and the effort (or often times, the lack thereof) most attorney's put into legal representation. Luke was not just another attorney trying to collect the next retainer deposit, he actually cares about his client's (and their family) and expressed sincere compassion to our situation. Luke is a very thorough and realistic appellate attorney. He was very straightforward and his knowledge of the law far surpassed any of the attorneys we have worked with in the past. His proficiency and continual search for applicable case law was exceptional. He researched every angle of the case and found errors made by the trial attorney and trial court that provided an outcome we never thought would be possible. He was always well prepared for each hearing and kept the lines of communication constantly flowing. More times than not, a client is forced to communicate with the attorney's legal assistant and this simply was not the case with Luke. He always knew the specific facts of the case at hand each time we spoke. Luke always made sure we knew what to expect and was always available to personally answer questions. He proved to be successful where prior attorneys were not and it didn't stop there. He went the extra mile to prepare our family for the process following the conclusion of his appellate work. For anyone who is ever in the unfortunate position of needing to hire a criminal appellate attorney, Luke Newman would be an asset to your case and someone you would want in your corner fighting on your behalf. Our family will forever be grateful for Mr. Newman and the results he achieved.

Luke helped me to get a ridiculous injunction dismissed in July 2015. His fees are reasonable, he is very competent, and he made me feel that I was taken care of. I would recommend him to anyone.
