Best lawyer in hall county

Had a dui charge with a hit and run. Always put me first and had the deal settle to a reckless opp the first time we went to court. Really trust worthy man and will always do what's right for you situation. Really happy he was my lawyer and wouldn't want any other person stand and fight for me. Will ...always recommend him for any family member or friend.

One of the best

I have used Brett as my attorney 3 times over the last 6 years. He was recommended by an old friend of mine and I couldn't be any happier with his work. He has delivered outstanding results, much better than I ever imagined in all 3 cases he represented me in. He's managed to save my license from not... only being suspended but revoked and got my charges reduced significantly. I would highly recommend him and personally I would never think twice of having another attorney represent me.

Nightmare! Late for court and doesn't return calls.

This attorney was recommended by a bail bond agent. I called his office and left several messages with no call back. Finally a secretary said he was out but another attorney in the office could help. I met the other attorney at Mr. Turner's office and sent him full payment within a week thinking that... all was well. After a couple weeks of nothing happening and dealing with an attorney who seemed to not know anything about my case I called back and spoke to Brett Turner's secretary again. She had Brett Turner call me. He explained that even though I was calling his office the attorney I was given to just rented space from him. You can imagine my shock because I thought I was dealing with a group of attorneys in a law practice. He said if I wanted him to handle the case his fee was over twice as much but he would give me a break. At this point I was desperate because my trial date was approaching. I live out of state so I mailed him a check for the increased fee. Basically, that's the last I heard from him until he SHOWED UP LATE FOR MY COURT DATE!!! When he arrived it became obvious that he hadn't even done any preparation and was just then looking at my file in court. He negotiated a plea that had me avoid a DUI conviction but made me pay all the fines and undergo the punishment as if I had. He told me I had a full year to get everything paid and all the requirements met. The next day I was informed by a probation employee that wasn't the case and she was imposing a very onerous burden on me. I called Mr. Turner several times and finally got a call back but got NO HELP! Over a two or three month period I called several times but he would never talk to me or call me back. Finally when he did talk to me, even though he agreed that the requirements being imposed were not right, his "advice" was to just accept them and get it over with. My impression was that he didn't want to do any work and was reluctant to go against the people in the area that he deals with. In essence he made the well being of me, his client, subordinate to his relationship with people in the local system even though they were not acting correctly. When you have Mr. Turner on the phone (before you pay him) he does a good job of convincing you he will help. Good luck getting a call back after the check clears though.

Highly recommended

I have used Mr. Turner's services on at least three different occasions for criminal matters involving DUI and arguments with my girlfriend. I had called attorneys i had used in the past and they told me i was out kf luck Someone referred me to Mr. Turner so i decided to talk wirh him and get his o...pinion. At our meeting he was straightforward about what I was looking at but told me he didn't know why my previous attorneys had said what they did. He spent time with me to explain the possible different outcomes and let me know that I got to decide what to do with my case, not him. He would not push me to trial just to get more $ or make me plea if I didn't want to. I found his fee to be reasonable and he worked with me on it and told me what the fee would be if I wanted a trial or just wanted to enter a plea. I never felt pushed to go any particular way. He told me his job was to give me enough information to decide for myself how I should end the case. In the past other attorneys just seemed to want me to ente a plea. While he was difficult to get on the phone and he told me it would be due to his court schedule, i I never had a problem having a meeting with him within a couple of days and he always spent as much time with me as i needed to make sure i understood everything. I never got charged extra for those meetings He was always straightforward with me and didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear. I have recommended him to several of my friends who also had the same experience I did. He got things done in my cases that I did not think were possible and he never let me down and always exceeded my expectations as he got me out of the DUI my other attorneys said i would be stuck with. He also has helped me out on several occasions free of charge with some matters related to my business. He treated me with respect and never talked down to me.

DUI damage controller

Just wanted to say a few words about my experience with Mr. Turner. I was referred to him my someone when I was released from Lumpkin Co. jail with 5 charges hanging over my head. I contacted Brett and we discussed possible outcomes of my situation because it involved DUI/Poss. of illegal substance.... He was honest and straightforward with how he could help me, his costs and what to expect. I had an initial consultation with Brett and hired him on the spot. In my opionion, he did all the necessary filing and reporting to the courts as expected. His expertise, knowledge and follow up with my case exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend Brett to a friend or family member.
