Contacted Melinda Morris in September concerning a citation I received for a traffic accident. She was very responsive. Promised nothing, but explained how she would handle my case. I ended up paying for the citation (which I knew I would have to). But no points were assessed and I did not have to go to traffic school. I highly recommend Ms. Morris. She handled my case very quickly and very professionally.

I could not have picked a better attorney. It was nice having someone that actually cared about my case. It was comforting knowing I had a Lawyer representing me where I was a name and not a number. Ms. Morris is very knowledgeable, experienced and personable. Always professional and handled my legal matters quickly and efficiently. She was widely available, promptly returned my phone calls, and always kept me well informed. Her past experience definitely shows. Because of her dedication and hardwork on my case the outcome was much better than I expected. I am very satisfied with this firm’s services. I highly recommend this firm. I truly appreciate it all. Thanks for everything!!

After being falsely arrested for a bogus complaint by a crazy person inside of a restaurant, I arrived at my arraignment optimistic the charges would be dropped. Unfortunately, the prosecutors and the judge himself had a different plan. Once the disturbed individual who initiated my arrest decided to speak in open court that day, I realized I was in for a fight. The judge offered me 30 days in jail if I pleaded guilty to the charges. When I spoke with the public “pretender” appointed to me, he told me to take the deal, even though I told him I had no history of this sort of thing, not to mention the fact that I was innocent! When I got home, I decided to contact a real lawyer for my case. I called several law offices and spoke with lawyers who didn’t seem to care about my situation, just my checkbook. Then, I called the Ms. Morris and was pleasantly surprised by her knowledge of the law and compassion for people in my predicament. After retaining Ms. Morris, the case proceeded for a few more months with various twists and turns. However, ultimately my initial charges were dropped, and no convictions were placed on my record.

I cannot express my gratitude to the Morris Law Firm enough.
I contacted Melinda Morris for assistance in a legal matter in June of 2011. During the first call I felt she was going to help and would be able to solve my issue. After explaining the process of how she could help she provided great detail of the steps that would be taken.
Her staff members I spoke to during the process had the best customer service skills I have ever experienced. They were knowledgeable and I never felt I was a burden to them. I was most impressed with use of email to keep me informed when updates occurred and the completion of my request.
Melinda, thank you for your help and personal service you provide. I wish you well and many years of a successful practice.

After dealing with many attorney's during my divorce I was left with little respect for all of them. Then my child got into trouble with the law(posession, battery), I turned to Melinda Morris for help to resolve the issues. I was expecting the same treatment that I received from the other attorney's during my divorce, they were all more interested in when they would get a check and how much they were going to get ! Surprise, I found an HONEST attorney that CARED about her clients and worked FOR them, Melinda Morris ! Knowledgeable, compassionate about her work ! She is straight forward about what she can do for you. The best attorney I have EVER dealt witth !

I would recommend Ms. Morris to anyone in the unfortunate position of needing a lawyer. She is completely honest and up front with her clients. She has a deep and personal knowledge of the justice system in Pinellas County. Ms. Morris is also aggressive and tenacious when pursuing one's case. She represented me, and my outcome was exactly as we expected. She will not do wrong by you.
