The Turner Law Firm

"Without the help of the Turner Law Firm, I know that I would not have had the successful outcomes I have had. Mr. Turner took on an extremely difficult case and encountered issues that no one expected and few had ever seen. He worked continuously to make sure that the truth was told and presented it... perfectly. He has stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Though we faced challenges, Mr. Turner did not falter. His thorough research provided us the pathway we needed to rise to victory. I will only recommend Mr. Turner as I have never been nor have I ever seen anyone treated better. I am proud to be a Turner Law Firm client and will continue to retain them for all legal matters that may arise as I know I am in the best hands." Thank You Mr.Turner

Good Start

I just hired Mr. Turner for a complex case. Before retaining he already looked into my case and researched with the D.A. A great start and I’m looking forward to working with him.

FANTASTIC ATTORNEY

Mr. Turner has restored our faith in the legal community found here in Savannah, GA. We first found Mr. Turner a year ago in a moment of legal desperation, when previous council, proved uninterested, after payment was rendered, and ineffective. Mr. Turner's calming nature offered a refuge in what h...as been confusing and frustrating moments of an on going legal battle. His behind closed doors kind demeanor with clients, should not be mistaken for weakness in a court room. His commanding knowledge of the law and unflappable determination in the courtroom allows us to know that we have an advocate that has and will always fight for what is right for us in any of the legal issues we have faced and continue to encounter. Simply cannot say enough good things about Mr. Turner and his law firm!

Impressed!

After a misunderstanding happened when visiting Savannah, GA, which lead to a misdemeanor, I contacted Joey to handle my case. He is very understanding and knowledgeable about the process, as well as reasonably priced. He was able to have my case dismissed and I never had to appear in court. I am for...ever greatful!!!! Thank you Joey !

Best Attorney!!! Please Read!!!!

Joey Turner is ABSOLUTLY the best Attorney you could hire….. I have never been in any legal trouble before let alone, having criminal charges pending against me. I was scared and unsure of what to do. I received a notice through the mail on a Friday afternoon that I had pre-warrant court on Mon...day. I felt very hopeless in this situation with having such late notice. I started calling attorneys in a panic and leaving messages. The few that returned my call were decent they stated they could help and the cost pretty cut and dry. At 6:30, I received a call back from Attorney Joey Turner himself, not a secretary or legal assistant. I explained my situation and the craziness of it. The first words I received from him were, “You’ll be okay. I can help you and it’s not that horrible.” Unlike like the other attorneys, the financial end was not mentioned until I asked. He was more concerned about information on my case. We arranged to meet that following Monday morning to talk about the case and what I could expect. During the discussion, there was an ease that came over me when I realized Attorney Turner was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and very strong with determination on winning. At the same time he was able to calm me down with reassurance. Attorney Turner was of course hired!!! He immediately went to arrange a continuance, and I didn’t even have to even make an appearance that day much to my relief. Prior to court, Attorney Turner communicated often with me. He would always return my calls, even in the evening and weekends. ALWAYS no matter what the question was he answered putting me at complete ease. 3 weeks latter was my hearing, I felt prepared and confident thanks to my Attorney. Needless to say not only did he get the charges dismissed he had excellent courtroom demeanor. I walked out of there with my head held high and smiles all the way, feeling like a winner, because of Attorney Joey Turner. He went above and beyond his job. I will forever be grateful and indebted to Attorney Turner. In my opinion, he is Savannah’s Best and Only Criminal Attorney…….
