Tom is absolutely amazing!!!!
I had court today with tom for the 3rd time for a criminal case. He walked over to the judge handed him a green sheet for dismissal and the judge said he couldn't dismiss it with restitution so tom and the DA were both like um ya you can just do it and the judge just said Um ok case dismissed. I have been involved in the court system for quite some time and I've never seen that. I will def never use another lawyer. His prices are not bad and now that I've seen him work they are completely worth it! Thank you so much Tom! I shall remain free because of you.
