Allyn Sharp Review

Highly Recommend Ms. Sharp! She made me feel at ease during a difficult time. My cases concluded with the best possible out...dismissed! She will fight hard. You are safe in her hands.

Thanks so much

Hi Allyn, I'm not sure if you remember me, but you were my public defender for a marijuana possession charge in Greensboro about four years ago. I just celebrated four years of sobriety a few weeks ago and thought that I should take some time this Thanksgiving to show my gratitude for the people ...who helped get me where I am today. When I met you I was in a horrible place in my life. I was barely employable, drinking every day, estranged from my family and had no future or hope. You very graciously took a strong interest in my case and helped me get a deferred judgement for my charges. However, even though I had a felony looming over my head, I violated my probation and appeared in court drunk for my probation violation hearing. My actions certainly didn't deserve any special treatment, but for some reason you didn't give up on me and helped me to find a way into a rehab. Since then my life has had some ups and downs, but drugs, alcohol and crime no longer have any influence on my life. I've moved to Charlotte for a decent job with an engineering firm, done much to repair my relationship with my family, I no longer have any substantial debt, and lived to tell my story to many people suffering from the problems that used to plague my life. There are many people who have helped me along the way but none as selflessly as the way you helped me. I am at a loss to fully express my gratitude. Thank you for everything you have done for me and everything you are. Keep up the good fight.

superior court

I was in alot of trouble and it wasn't even my fault. The courts was looking at my situation as if I was guilty in their eye's. The first attorney I had wasn't really into my case like talking about it. Then comes Allyn Sharp who thoroghly looked at my case. She heard me all the way through. I was th...inking I was going to get probation as a plea offer. She took the time to actually work my case and had everything dimissed with no fees to pay. I strongly recommend whoever to hire her. Allyn Sharp will fight very hard for you and you will just be in love with the outcome

Ms. Sharp goes above and beyond what I would o expected from a public defender.

She helped coach me threw a, how should I say, "very unorganized" Dirham county court system. She knows the ins and outs of law and how the most simple overlooked things could be game changers in a case. She really did work hard and deserves every penny she is worth especially ibeing a woman in a man... dominated field. She will stand up and not only protect you and your interest but is hair as fierce In an offensive mode. All in all she worked wonders am ew the North Carolina laws like there inscribed in her brain and take her work very serious as someone in this type of profession should. I dont know if she is looking into moving into private practice or not but she would be a great addition to any law firm just on her extreme knowledge, will, and determination to do the right thing. Which is helping individuals that need that extra help in helping themselves. She's very understanding and will turn all these big word into basic English language. Once again Thank You Ms. Sharp And all your work.

Top Notch Representation

Attorney Sharp represented my daughter in a criminal matter involving multiple, serious probation violations which could easily have resulted in jail time. Sharp was able to negotiate an arrangement whereby my daughter would be required to complete a 12 month residential substance abuse rehabilitatio...n program rather than go to jail. Based upon the result we got I would recommend her as a highly skilled negotiator and attorney. The result she obtained may just literally save my daughter's life. I cannot thank her enough.
