THIS IS THE REVIEW YOU NEED TO READ!!!!!

Yes, I know it’s a long review but I promise reading it is worth it. And I hate writing essays BUT he truly deserves it! Here I am going through a prolonged DUI court case 3 years after the incident occurred in 2021. This is due to my previous attorney consistently finding excuses to push it ...back and not caring about me as a client. I was so stressed by not having this case nowhere near being resolved while also dealing with that arrogant (but pessimistic) attorney I had before Mr. Cleaver (I want to state his name so bad but let me not be that petty lol). I say all that because we finally get to my motions hearing for my case earlier this year (2024) and it does not go the way he wants. Immediately after the hearing he then proceeds to tell me to prepare for trial while also recommending me to switch to any attorney from Willis Law Firm since they also have the power to appeal court decisions. In other words he is indirectly saying he doesn’t think he will win the trial or even cares to win it for me at all. So, while even more stressed about the whole situation during and after my hearing, I looked online under Willis Law Firm and something in my mind, heart, and gut told me to meet with Attorney Casey Cleaver and see how he feels about my case. Literally within the first 15 minutes of meeting him, he already showed me more respect than my previous attorney did the whole time I was under him. We look over my case and he also, in his gut, feels like he could easily win my case for me. As we come to that agreement, I decided to switch from my previous attorney to him. This I where I started to find out truly that Attorney Casey Cleaver was the real deal. We proceed with another motions hearing allowed by the judge since he asked for one as my new attorney. It did not go as perfectly as he expected but he knew no matter what evidence was suppressed or not suppressed that he could easily still win my case. We finally go to trial which lasted 3 days and every step was some of the most professional work of an attorney I have ever seen……I mean this was my first time dealing with a court case about me but just take my word for it lol. I was very anxious at the time and Mr Cleaver always found a way to keep my anxiety at a minimum with his cool, calm and collected demeanor. During the jury selection, he literally got some type of bio out of each possible jury member and actually made it kind of fun to select a jury. I swear it felt like a game that him and I were playing against the prosecutor for which he knew who the prosecutor was going to “strike out” and which jury members we had the best chance of getting. It was like as if it were a tutorial for an attorney game and he was my guide through it all as he thoroughly explained each step of the way. After the jury selection, we proceed for the next two days. During his opening statement, debate against the prosecutor and closing statement, it was easy to see that Casey Cleaver was hungry to win this case. He had both of the police witnesses and even the prosecutor stuttering and lost for words at times by the questions he asked them and how he called out ALL of their flaws dealing with their evidence against me. He found even the smallest to biggest flaws in both the police’s sobriety tests on me and even the mistakes in their reports on the situation. His closing argument was one that I believe everyone in that court room, even the prosecutor, could find it very hard to not accept and disagree with. We finally get to the verdict about an hour after the jury discusses all their opinions about my case. While I am sitting there nervous out of my mind next to Mr Cleaver, I could just see his confident anticipation for the verdict that he knows we are going to get. The representative of the jury slowly reads the verdict (it had my anxiety on 100% lol), he finally says “the jury finds that he is NOT GUILTY”. THE BEST EVER!!!!!

Trust. I’m so glad I trusted this firm (and Casey) with my case. The service, communication and professionalism was banner, day one until the very end. Yes, I got the result we planned for. But I’d like to compliment Casey’s reputation and demeanor. He quickly gained my trust, and it’s clear why when... I saw him in court as he clearly has the respect of his peers. Recommend. Period.

Casey and his team were wonderful. Over the 1.5 years it took to resolve my case, they kept me updated and answered all my questions with patience and professionalism. Casey was thoughtful and intelligent, and I am so grateful to him!!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Casey is a very smart, hard working young lawyer. He is a superstar in the making. From what his boss tells me, he is the first in and last out at the office. In his first year of being a criminal defense lawyer he acquitted a client in a very complex family violence matter. He possesses a key trait for being a highly successful attorney; he has no fear. In his career so far he has handled hundreds of cases already including litigating many legal issues to the benefit of his clients. You cannot go wrong in hiring him. He will work extremely hard for the right result."
