Do not recommend

With him as my attorney I was negotiating and compromising with my abusive, alcoholic ex. I never got to present any evidence. My child’s safety and my own safety was in question. He advised I not get a dvpo against my ex. My son and I were constantly in dangerous situations and he was no help. I swi...tched attorneys and now have sole custody of my son and a dvpo against my ex. My ex ended up with two dwi’s, and felonies for pulling a stolen gun on people at a gas station. If you have a simple case Mr Britt may be okay, but if not go with someone else.

Lee Britt was appointed as my lawyer by the court and did a great job with my case and he also was willing to look out for my husband as well! Great attorney! A+! my husband is now represented on another matter by Attorney Mr. Britt and we look forward in working with him to resolve that case as well...!

Honest and Hard Working Attorney

Lee Britt was appointed as my court appointed attorney on January 11, 2022. Unfortunately he wasn't able to represent me due to a conflict of interest. He withdrew from my case on February 3, 2022. I was never able to meet with him or talk him at all but he was still was willing to do 6 hours of lab...or for me even though it was a conflict of interest. A judgment was entered against me on May 19, 2022 for the 6 hours of labor performed by Lee Britt. Unfortunately I was never given a copy of the judgment and can't obtain a copy of the judgment from the courthouse. Today Lee Britt assured me that it was easy to get a copy of the judgment. I only give him 4 stars instead of 5 because it has been 13 months since the judgment was entered and I still don't have a copy of that judgment. Hopefully, Lee Britt can get a copy of this document for me.

Will Not Ever Recommend for Criminal Court.

There’s many things wrong with my current discovery. I learn things from any other source’s (family friend that studied NC law) i share it with him it’s always wrong. I’ve had two other lawyers look at my discovery and say it’s positively fightable and one turned me away all together lol. Or more or ...less he’ll hint if I actually paid him I wouldn’t be used as a pawn and sent back to prison for a drug I’ve never had. He says “Money talks” lmao I’m being offered 35-51 months as the first plea to take a trafficking LSD charge and a selling meth charge. I’ve never seen 100 tabs alone together. I used meth and bought as much as I could afford from the CRI. so how am I going to be charged for that? Lee Britt is a good lawyer according to my family in family court. While I was incarcerated he wouldn’t print me anything to study in law and other lawyers such as Paul castle, Nathan sweets, Matt Silva, etc are making sure their clients, retained or appointed, had paper copies to sit, study, and learn in their cells. I haven’t been indicted on the trafficking charges and he said that’s the only deal he’ll get that I should pay a lawyer if I want better results. I’ve missed my daughters birth, and first birthday I don’t want to miss anymore of her precious life unless it’s for something I actually did. The officers arrest statement is completely wrong and the camera at my place of arrest would show and then JPD would get scrutinized regardless because of how they did me. Of course Mr. Britt hasn’t asked for that lol. Zero, nada, No drugs where found on me, near me, in my car, or in my home. DO NOT HIRE MR. BRITT for criminal court. I’m trying to figure out how to get him to step down from my case. He doesn’t return phone calls. He’s yet to let me, the defendant see some alleged tape they’ve got. He’s neglectful. I’m writing to the Bar of Associated again on him.

Mr Britt was my court appointed attorney. I didn't pay him anything. We're are still waiting for our court date. I feel confident with Mr Britt as my attorney. I feel like he gave me alot of attention.
