Exceptional

I’ve had Jan as my attorney for many years, and he has never once let me down. Time after time, Jan has gone above and beyond—fighting for me with determination, skill, and an unwavering commitment to justice. His persistence in the courtroom, his deep knowledge of the law, and his ability to strateg...ize under pressure set him apart from other attorneys. What makes Jan truly exceptional is not just his legal expertise, but the way he genuinely cares about his clients. He takes the time to listen, explain, and stand by you through every step of the process. With Jan, you don’t just feel represented—you feel protected. Without a doubt, Jan is the best criminal defense attorney I’ve ever worked with, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs someone who will fight tirelessly on their behalf.

Professional

I couldn’t be more grateful for Attorney Pritchett’s outstanding representation in my DWI case in Guilford County. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome. His strategic approach and attention to detail made all the d...ifference—he won my case, and I’m beyond relieved. If you’re facing a tough legal situation and need someone who truly knows the law and fights hard for their clients, Attorney Pritchett is the one to call. Highly recommended!

Best Attorney around

“I’m deeply grateful to Mr. Pritchett for his help with my DWI case and securing limited driving privileges. From the start, he was professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping me through a difficult chapter. His knowledge of the legal process and his calm, confident approach made eve...rything feel more manageable. Thanks to his efforts, I was able to maintain some independence and continue meeting my responsibilities. I couldn’t have asked for better representation.”

"I have known Jan for close to 20 years. He supervised me as an intern in the Guilford County District Attorney's office while I was still in law school. I learned a lot from him in a short period of time. I think the most valuable lesson was watching how to respectfully treat your apposing counsel while still zealously doing your job. In the years that I have been in private practice, I have referred everything that I could to Jan. He does a fantastic job and gets good results. I highly recommend him for any criminal matter."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
