LEGAL EAGLE!

Mary Jane Melton was my court appointed attorney and I have to say I couldn't have any luckier. Not only was she was professional she went above and beyond my expectations. I was able to walk outof court with just a misdemeanor charge and i was facing felony charges! Highly recommend!! She is defini...tely the best!

Disappointed

Our 1st day in court she came & pulled me out of court room & took me to a little room downstairs & sits down with this man & starts talking to him asking him questions then looks at me & says "well what do u think?" I looked at her confused for a moment & the realized she had me confused with anot...her client. I thought he was an attorney for my ex husband & he thought I was her paralegal. She gots facts mixed up during court & later when I pointed them out in the paperwork she got mad & started yelling at me. I would have fired her but I had already paid her & couldn't afford to start over after 10 months.

LaFayette GA Attorney

Ms Melton was outstanding in helping me and my partner in resolving a legal issue with our business. We were forced to vacate our building after siging our lease and opening for business. Ms Melton worked diligently on our behalf to get the issue resolved for us and our business is now thriving. If n...ot for her hard work, I'm not sure how long we would have been closed or of our business would have survived.
