Compassionate, Empathetic, Amazing!

Mr. Turner is an absolutely amazing Lawyer! I was falsely charged with a DWI, and Mr. Turner was there for me the entire time to help calm my nerves, and explain the entire process to me. He was able to get my case dismissed, and I was able to leave without the record on my insurance, or the points o...n my license. I highly recommend using Mr. Turner if you are in need of a lawyer. He does the job well, and communicates the process to you so that you are not left in the dark.

Amazing lawyer

Mr.Turner Is an amazing lawyer, I was on felon probation and wound up getting violated for not paying all my fees. Hired Mr.Turner and he got all my fees dismissed and my probation terminated! Highly recommended in my book, he also works on behalf of the client and will help you get the best outcom...e for you!!

People must have looked and there were consequences.

I'm glad I find a site to give my review of Mr. Turner. What I find strange is how all these great comments how on the same date, as if everyone decided to give him 5 starts on the same day, hmmmm! Well my experience is if he can't help you with ease of a call to one of his former police connections,... then you are screwed. He will not go out and be the attorney he could be, if it at all sheds a negative light on him to the police dpmt. He should work for the DA, not as a defense attorney, because that defense is tissue paper. My experience with for a crime, something that I wasn't even present for, gave me the thought that it would be an easy case, but only easy if he took the time ask questions of the right people, regardless if he didn't look pleasant to the judge and DA. Defend the client, not the DA, they have all the resources they want, I ONLY HAD HIM, and my FACTS. Be a family man, by helping other men get back to their family. I took money from my household to help him, but yet he didn't help me. I could have taken my own chances and been 1000's of dollars better. Defendant beware!!!

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Turner was my first call following my charge. He provided extremely helpful advice and was by my side throughout the legal process. Mr. Turner represented me at every court date and stayed after to discuss my case with me. His approach and game plan allowed me to get the best possible outcome for... my case as I could not have afforded to lose my license. I would highly recommend Mr. Turner and his staff to anyone seeking legal counsel.

Professional yet compassionate Attorney

Both of my sons (and several of their friends) have used the services of Attorney Lee Turner several times during their early driving years. He not only defended them during the court appearances, but also counseled them on the dangers of the traffic violations they had been charged with. He was ab...le to get them to understand the need of safe driving habits and the traffic citations stopped. Lee Turner is the only attorney I have ever recommend to my sons or friends.

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.
