Our Personal Experience

Speaking on behalf of the entire family, should anyone be in search of an excellent Law Firm to represent them on behalf of a Criminal Offense then we highly recommend Jezic & Moyse. Mr. Jezic's strategy in the Courtroom is an approach unlike any we have ever seen, as he encourages the Jury to like... both him, as well as the Defendant he is representing. Of course, he doesn't have to work hard at it beings he is an individual already very likable by nature. His defense technique is very impressive, and he has more than fulfilled our expectations. Therefore, if you are in the process of researching prior cases, which reveal a positive outcome then your research can stop here. Mr. Jezic will give your case his undivided attention making it his main priority of focus. We promise you this, he works extremely hard to bring everything to the defense table at the highest level permitted by Law. After Jury selection, a 6 day trial immediately followed. At the end of everyday Mr. Jezic gave our case more than One-Hundred Percent, and spent countless hours with his client in preparation for their testimony. The severity of our case could be classified as a worse case scenario with a miraculous outcome as an end result. All due to Mr. Jezic's persistence throughout the trial and impeccable defense I might add. He continuously reinforced everything he considered to be of importance without compromising his opening statement and closing argument that impacted the Jury's Deliberations. The entire Courtroom, as well as the News Media covering the trial all recognized the Jury's Deliberations as the Miracle it truly was. Mr. Jezic is a go getter, as he puts a great deal of time into his cases by working diligently and is NOT intimidated, nor is he defeated easily. Our guarantee to anyone who may be considering Mr. Jezic as their Defense Lawyer is that no matter the severity of your case, he is definitely up for the challenge. You can either take our word for it, or you can let his actions in the Courtroom speak for itself. Again, should you be seeking a prestigious Attorney that demonstrates outstanding Legal Representation then look no further, and hire Andrew Jezic . His performance in the Courtroom is above excellence to say the least. Once more,, we highly encourage you to allow Mr. Jezic the opportunity to represent you in your case, whatever it may be. Given the chance he will prove to be your best choice. Mr. Jezic's performance in the Courtroom is NOT overrated. Need I say more? Therefore, take advantage of his expertise, knowledge, and wisdom to defeat your battle ahead. With that said, should you still be on the fence, then put your mind at ease by choosing Mr. Jezic as your acting Attorney. We encourage you to do just that. Rest assured, you will be glad you did. Incidentally, offering Mr. Jezic the opportunity to be of service in your defense case may also prove to be yet another Victory in the Justice System. Trust me, the hard work he puts forth in your case will speak for itself as actions do speak louder than words. Mr. Jezic himself will be the supporting evidence of everything we have claimed throughout this referral to be more than accurate to say the least. In closing; allow yourself to established a trustworthy Attorney Client relationship with Mr. Jezic, as well as his trusted Associate Gary whom has been there throughout our entire case, which has in turn left us with the feeling of getting to know them on a personal level so-to-speak. I could go on and on, nonetheless; I will stop here.

Solicitation of Prostitution

I was recently charged by the state of Maryland in Prince George's County with Prostitution/Solicitation. Furthermore, to complicate matters, I had a pending petition with USCIS to remove restrictions on my Green card. Solicitation/Prostitution charges under federal law are taken very seriously ...and could have had complicated immigration status. Also as a Professional with a state license, such charges may have had consequences with the licensing board. I was extremely impressed during my first meeting with Andrew. What particularly stood out to me was not only his willingness to help me in court but also out of court. He pointed me towards various counsellors/books/organization that have made an impact. I was also pleased with the outcome of the trial and currently working towards getting the case dismissed and expunged. For anyone in similar circumstances, I would highly recommend Mr. Andrew Jezic.

Exceptional representation

I hired Mr. Jezic to represent me on three felony burglary and several misdemeanor theft charges. The prosecutor did not offer a particularly generous plea bargain, dismissing the misdemeanors but keeping all three felonies. Sentencing guidelines called for me to be incarcerated for 2-8 years, and th...e prosecutor argued vehemently for 4 years of jail time. Mr. Jezic was nothing short of exceptional in the courtroom, orchestrating a defense that included a number of letters on my behalf, a variety of materials speaking to my accomplishments in the community, and three character witnesses. Despite guidelines specifying 2-8 years of jail time and a solid prosecutor asking for four, Mr. Jezic’s representation resulted in my receiving no jail time at all; only unsupervised probation. The result was better than I could have ever hoped for. Every interaction with Mr. Jezic and his staff was pleasant and productive. I met with him in person and by email, and he was responsive to all of my questions every time. I couldn’t have asked for better representation or a better result. I strongly recommend him and his firm.
