Dewey Powell Brinkley

Mr. Brinkley is an excellent attorney. He has a strong grasp of N.C. criminal law. He took ample time with us to hear our side, to explain the charges, and to tell us what to expect as we proceeded through each stage. He was diligent in keeping us informed. He showed us incredible compassion as we w...ent through one of the worst experiences of our lives. The charges were ultimately dismissed (just as Mr. Brinkley predicted they would be based on the facts of the case). We could not have asked for a better attorney. He came highly recommended to us, and we highly recommend him to others who may need a criminal attorney.

The first business day after my situation started, I called around to several attorneys, but I felt pressured by the other attorney's or their staff to come in or to give a deposit before speaking with me. Mr. Brinkley answered my call. During our initial conversation he listed and dissected it alm...ost drafting the case. After that call, I choose him to represent me. During our in person consultation, he outlined what could happen and what he thought he could get done. He never promised any final result but during the whole process he reassured me and his effort was extraordinary. My resolution was the best possible outcome and it was due to his persistence and hard work.

Distressed at facing my first legal charge last year and uncertain about what to do, I reached out to Mr. Brinkley for a phone consultation and he returned my call within minutes. He spent almost an hour going over the details of my arrest, assessing my case without any hint of personal judgement, ex...plaining next steps, and thoroughly answering all of my questions -- this on a weekend and before any mention of payment. When it did come time to decide whether or not to engage his services, he clearly articulated how he would aid in my defense and what the costs would be. Patient and upright, Mr. Brinkley draws from a well of experience to offer clear and considered advice, which is a true comfort in an unbelievably stressful situation, and his honest guidance was ultimately responsible for my successful defense. I've never been so relieved. I unreservedly recommend him to anyone seeking a talented and honest defender.

I recently worked with Mr. Brinkley as my legal counsel. He did a great job making me feel comfortable from the initial consultation, all the way to a successful completion of my case. He met with me several times for thorough discovery of evidence, and to prepare me to testify on my own behalf. He c...oached me through what to expect on the stand, the questions I would likely be asked, and realistic consequences of both a guilty, and a not guilty verdict. Thank You Dewey
