Satisfied client!!

I hired Mr. Silva to help me with a traffic ticket. His office kept in touch and helped me with everything. He got the charges reduced and I am very satisfied with the results. I would recommend this law firm over any other in the area. You will not be disappointed.

Not Guilty!

From start to finish it was an awesome experience. I did expect more communication but this was my first time using a lawyer. He handled everything and didn’t miss anything through out the entire 3.5 year process. No hidden fees or charges were ever incurred. I found Mr. Silva on what I believe was a... “Top 40 defense attorneys of the Carolina’s” he demonstrated that he most definitely deserves to be on this list. Thank you for everything

Experienced Lawyer!!

I have never needed a criminal lawyer before. I was so pleased that I chose Mr. Silva & he took my case. He absolutely knew how to handle my case. He was quick, accurate and on target with the plaintiff. We won in just a matter of minutes. He was understanding of my feelings, Professional & kind. I h...ave no plans of needing him in the future but if a situation were to arise he would be my first & only call. Thank you Mr. Silva!

FAST AND FURIOUS REPRESENTATION!!!!

Reached out to Mr. Silva about clearing up an old ticket ( over a decade ago) and he got it reduced and paid off within 48 hours after obtaining him! Feels awesome having this burden lifted off of my plate for so long! Wish I contacted him years ago to represent me on my behalf!

Best Lawyer in Jacksonville

Absolutely the best lawyer to represent you and have in your corner! Mr. Silva had my DUI case completely dismissed and was very professional and up front during the whole process. Anyone who is searching for a lawyer to represent them should hire Mr. Silva.
