Awesome Experience

Attorney John Painter handle a ticket for me in Union County. He handled it in a timely manner with a fabulous outcome of having it dismissed. His assistant, Dana, was not only knowledgeable but was a pleasure to talk with through out this experience. I highly recommend Attorney John Painter and his ...office for your legal needs

DUI, underage drinking, driving left of center

Unbelievably amazing. I was charged with a DUI, under-aged drinking, and driving left of center after wrecking my car one night. John was helpful the entire time, tried the case, and he got everything dropped except for driving left of center. I will forever be thankful to him.

Simply the Best!

Consulted 3 lawyers total for my DWI case and was told by all but John Painter that I would have to plead guilty and there was nothing they could do... John never hinted that my case was not one we could win and instilled the confidence I was looking for. Yesterday afternoon my case that 2 other "hi...gh profile" lawyers said was not winnable was dismissed and all charges dropped. Can't thank John enough and there's no one else in Union County that I would recommend to anyone. Top notch service from a top notch lawyer!

Excellent attorney, in knoledge and skill.

I hired John Painter for a DUI case whereas I was arrested after an accident but was not the person driving the vehicle. After I was arrested and taken downtown to be booked, he showed up to go over with the officers what had happened to justify my arrest. Throughout the next 16 months we went to co...urt, awaiting a trial, while the D.A. tried to come up with witnesses of the accident. As the last court date came he made it clear we were not waiting another month to resolve this matter. Finally we got to trial. During the trial Mr. Painter was at the top of his game, objecting to things that didn't apply to the charges, questioning the prosecuting witnesses in the proper way as to prove that they didn't actually see the accident until after it had happened and everyone was out of the vehicles, and, most importantly, that they had no cause to arrest me. I had injuries from the crash inflected on my right side which is consistent of the crash since we had collided mainly on the passenger side of our vehicle. Besides all of that he was persistent in the fact that regardless of who the accident had happened or, who was driving, there was no cause for me to be arrested under the suspicion of driving while impaired. I must say it is a relief to get out of trouble. But a better relief to get out of being wrongly accused of a crime that you didn't commit. Although I did have to go through getting arrested and booked downtown, and had to take at least one day a month off for 16 months, of which was not at the fault of Mr. Painter but the D.A., in the end it was well worth anything to have an attorney on my side with the knowledge and skill to prove that there was no reason to arrest nor charge me with this act. In fact after the charges were dismissed, the court, gave me another charge of failure to reduce speed which Mr. Painter appealed for the fact that they couldn't prove I was driving in the first place. I would absolutely hire this attorney again, if needed.... but lets hope that doesn't happen again.

DWI

John Painter held true to his word and spent far more time than I expected considering the amount of money he charged me. Two years as a matter of fact on my DWI case! And yes it was dismissed, Amen! Most attorneys would've charged twice what he did. I would highly recommend him to anyone with a DWI... case.
