Thorough, Professional - Great Lawyer!

When we found ourselves facing serious charges that we never would have imagined, we reached out to Tom Dickey. He was prompt to respond and thorough in investigating all the facts and evidence. Even though ours was not a “high profile case”, Tom spent a great deal of time reviewing policies and la...ws specific to our situation. Thus, he presented a detailed and comprehensive defense. In the midst of it all, Tom kept us informed of what was happening at each step and was always quick to respond if we had questions or concerns. I’m grateful for all of Tom’s help that brought us to a favorable end. I would highly recommend Tom Dickey.

Outstanding Criminal Defense Attorney!

One day, I was deceived into breaking the law. I was charged with three felonies and numerous misdemeanors; I was also facing megan’s law registration for life. I hired Mr. Dickey after I realized that my original attorney was railroading me and wanted me to plead guilty to all charges. With attorney... Dickey, I entered a plea deal and pled to two misdemeanors; I was sentenced to three months house arrest and fifteen months of probation with NO megan’s law registration. He did an outstanding job presenting me to the court, as a productive member of society that I am, and showed the court how I had been deceived. If I had not hired Mr. Dickey, I would have spent years in the slammer and be a registered rapist for life. I believe that Mr. Dickey is ranked among the top 100 criminal defense attorneys in the country and has over three decades of experience. If Big Brother has you backed into a corner and is threatening to strip you of your Constitutional rights, hire Mr. Dickey if you want the best possible outcome for your case.

Very pleased

Tom represented me on a DUI in 2017, he followed through with every word he told me at my consultation. I got to keep my license and my job. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of my case. The girls that work for him are very nice and always were there to help. They knew as much about my case... as Tom. I felt at home any time I walked into his office. I would highly recommended him.

BEST LAWYER IN PA

Tom was the best lawyer I ever had. I have had him for several cases, one being a felony and he did everything he promised. never let me down. I had him for a DUI case and he did everything promised PLUS more. Every time I got him and paid in full he never once did me wrong. I always got a call back ...from him, if it wasn't from him it was from his paralegal. ALL his staff is AWESOME and HELPFUL!!!! I will always hire Tom. IF you need a good lawyer GO to him. He is worth every penny.

Did what was promised...

During consultation I was promised the probation without verdict deal on a felony marijuana charge. PWOV is basically say you messed up, go to drug counseling classes, and complete your probation. If all the previous criteria were met my record would be expunged. I completed everything but the probat...ion, I've done half and Dickey's office is in the process of petitioning my judge to drop the second year. He was hard to reach, and would often send is other lawyers to my court dates, but in my eyes he didn't really need to be there, I was just taking a plea deal. His other lawyer's are very knowledgeable and know what they're doing with the smaller cases. I would highly recommend Dickey's offices at this point in my experience. That being said if they can't swing getting me off early, or there is any issue with my record being expunged, that recommendation would change

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
