Outstanding Lawyer with a Great staff

I have 4 years of experiences as a Corrections Officer and 3 years as a Law Enforcement Officer in Florida, Tennessee and Arizona. On 12/29/2020 I needed assistance will a criminal matter in Milton, Florida while living in Arizona(19 hours away). Mr. Randall Etheridge and his firm were very respectfu...l and professional hands down. I was a little afraid because I am black American that I would be treated differently in Milton, Florida Santa Rosa County but that WAS NOT my experience in the least. I will never visit that part of Florida again unless I am stopping by The Law Office of Randall J. Etheridge to say hello. To all my Law Enforcement friends and civilian family, If you need an attorney to fight for you in court and feel respected throughout the process I would advise you to please contact The Randall J. Etheridge Law firm. Bonne annee!

He will fight for you!!

I just spent 15 months in the Santa Rosa County jail. The first half of my incarceration, I was represented by an attorney who literally told me that my case was hopeless and I was going to prison. The only offer from the state was 25 years. Enter Mr. Randy Etheridge. After firing my first attorney, ...I knew I needed to hire Randy just based on what I'd seen him do on other people's cases since I'd been in the jail. So my family retained him on my case in July 2019. Within a week of hiring Randy, the offer from the state went from 25 years to 15 years. He shaved 10 years off the offer without even doing anything other than putting in his notice to represent me. When Randy came to visit me at the jail, he told me he got the offer down to 15 years, but he said he knew that wasn't why my family hired him and that was only the beginning. Randy was extremely thorough in his due diligence and preparation of my defense. He did all of the necessary depositions in a timely fashion and after depositions he filed an extensive and highly accurate Motion to Dismiss with all of the case law to back it up. The judge heard our motion in December 2019. Randy's performance at the hearing was impeccable. The judge took my motion under advisement and three weeks later, I saw Randy at the jail. He said, "Michael, this morning the judge granted our motion. You're going home!" From hopeless with a 25 year state prison offer to case dismissed and I am at home typing this review! Randy Etheridge is a ROCK STAR. Between the power of God and a rock star lawyer a miracle happened and today I am a free man. I can't thank Randy enough for giving me my life back. If your case seems hopeless or even if it doesn't, Give Randy's office a call. His fees are worth every penny. He is the only lawyer I've ever had that actually cared enough to fight for me. Thank you, Randy.

Felony case 2 misdemeanor case

Mr Etheridge is truly an awesome defense attorney. I was charged with burglary criminal mischief and petty theft I was looking at 22 months prison time because of my record. I first had a public defender who said that he could do nothing for me that I was looking at prison time. I was in jail and a...sked Randy to come and see me, he came and saw me twice and said that he would take the case. I was able to pay all the restitution and he was able to get the burglary dropped and so my case was a misdemeanor instead of a felony. I am forever grateful and would recommend him on any case. He is very knowledgeable in criminal law and made me feel confident that we would win the case. I am truly grateful for him and his legal team thank you Mr. Etheridge you are truly amazing!!

A Phenomenal Attorney

I hired Mr. Etheridge to assist my son in violation of probation hearing. My son was facing 12 years on the violation because the State was trying to use his points from when he was a juvenile. Mr. Etheridge not only convinced the Court to not use these points but the Court reinstated his probati...on. This was a remarkable outcome as his family was not expecting him to come home that day. So thankful for Mr. Etheridge and his professionalism.

Highly Recommend

I was told to contact Randy by a friend regarding a legal matter I was dealing with. He was friendly and guinely cared about my case. He kept me informed of my options in the case. In the end he was able to get DUI and careless driving charges dismissed. I hope I'm in a situation to need his serv...ices again but if I was I would call him with no hesitation. I recommend Randy to anyone needing a criminal defense attorney.
