The man for the Job!

I’ve received 7 speeding tickets in about 5 years now :( I’ve reached out to Justin for every one of my tickets and he has always been on top of my cases. With that being said , I’m very pleased to share that he has been very pleasant and efficient throughout the years . He has been able to ...dismiss my ticketed wreck-less driving points and lower my careless driving fines. Justin has pulled through time and time again, he deserves a big thumbs up !! You Rock Justin !!

horrible experience

I hired Justin for a criminal case for my wife. He was rude, he wouldn't make calls back on time, and he kept vital information from me about the case. 8 months was wasted away with him as the lawyer. I felt betrayed after I found out key information he didn't tell me. I fired him as soon as I found ...out I wasn't being told the whole story, hired a new lawyer, and had it handled in a little over a month. With the new lawyer I could feel that they were on our side. With Justin, it felt like he was against us by not sharing any information that would help us in the case. Justin also lied saying a certain someone didn't make a police statement which I found out there was a statement with the new lawyer.
