Karl Martin Myles

Appearance is very unlawyerly. Came to my sentencing with ripped pants. Not recently ripped. There were strands of material coming off of the cuff his pants. He consistently asked me if I had paid him yet when I already had. He was late to all court dates except for one. The one he wasn't late for,... the courts sent me the wrong time on the letter and he didn't try to argue it at all despite me showing him the letter. He constantly got court postponed for 8 months and it was palpable that the judge was getting furious about it. He kept telling me that this did not seem like a jail case to him. I went to jail for a year. If I would've gone with a public defender and pled guilt I would have got a year. Complete waste of $3500. He also asked me to get letters from friends and family to attest to character as a good person who made a mistake and request leniency. As embarrassing as this was to ask, I did. The judge never got the letters, he forgot them. Not only was he late constantly, the day of my sentencing he actually told me to tell the judge he was running late.

Karl did everything he could for me from the minutes I've seen him. He found out how serious my situation was and was able to assure me of my options. His analyst was super accurate and he helped me with all of the supplement situations I had surrounding my incident. Even the ones that didn't invo...lve him! That kind of closure u won't get from another attorney. He "walked" me through, and I mean walked, the steps I need to take to make sure that my whole situation is correct...not just one part or a piece of the situation. We have a great friendly relationship as he is a funny guy also. He also understands situations that you or any other person may go through, and helps the best he can. I get out of court quickly...way quicker than a public defender or being by yourself can get you. He's made follow up calls with me and help me in ways the court would not allow me without him.. the best lawyer you can have!!

Don't walk, run from this guy. If he's so good, why on Craig's List ? He shows up in court with a dirty suit with food stains on it and a shirt unpressed with buttons missing. He lost his temper with me 3 times unprovoked outside the courtroom which demonstrates lack of professionalism. I now have a ...new attorney that's a former DA that looked over my trial transcripts and explained how Karl sold me out to a guilty plea instead of challenging several loopholes that would have had the case dismissed. I believe he either is afraid to defend in a jury trial or just has no experience. You stand before the judge for sentencing and he tells you to just plea guilty. Next day, he refuses to take my calls unless of course I pay him more. He is a schlock that just sells you out to make a quick buck and lacks self control and polish. If he is so good, why is he still living with his parents at his age ? Do your research when in need of an attorney because there are still a few very good ones out there and I do mean few. Karl manipulates the system and intimidates you to plead the path of resistance. He should be disbarred.
