I signed up for a 15 minute free consultation, and spoke with Javonte Middleton, the firm's expungement paralegal. I couldn't be more pleased with the experience! I had tried to look at the Georgia Code related to my situation myself over and over again, but I was totally confused about what I needed...

I went to the DeVetter Law Firm to have a probation early terminated. Nancy and her associates explained everything in detail as to what the steps would be. Their law firm was very helpful with the process. I would highly recommend Nancy and her associates to take care of any needs you may have.

I can not thank Nancy DeVetter and her team enough for working on my behalf! She was extremely attentive and always answered any questions I had. She explained the Retroactive First Offender process in great detail and was successful in my case!
