This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Horrible Communication

I (unfortunately) hired Mr. Lashley for a criminal felony. We talked a total of 4 minutes including consult. Once my retainer was paid, no phone calls were answered and I waited at minimum 3 weeks for (very brief) responses to any communication: email, text, voicemail. Unless of course there was a ch...ange or issue with my monthly payment, in which case he was immediately available. The cherry on top is when it came time for court and Mr. Lashley was TWO hours late and left me sitting there with no representation or reply from my attorney about why he was absent. AVOID. This guy could not care less about what happens to you.

Excellent Attorney

I've had the opportunity to work with Gary as we are both criminal defense attorneys, and had a client in common. Gary is an excellent attorney. He was always well informed on the case, and worked hard to represent his clients interests. I'd happily recommend him!

Very straight forward and got the job done!

Mr. Lashley handled my case with the upmost professionalism. He kept me well informed along the way and made sure I was aware of every possible outcome so I could prepare myself.

Excellent DUI Specialist

After being involved in a car crash, 4 months later I was arrested for suspicion of DUI. Gary blew holes in the allegation to where the case was dropped in a rather short time. He is helpful and helps you remain calm even when you feel all is lost. Reviews work, and based on his few reviews at the... time, the reviews are what made me contact him. Im very satisfied and would suggest him to anyone who needs this type of defense.

Excellent DUI Defense

In our first consultation Mr. Lashley was very sincere and I felt that he actually cared about my situation. He was thorough and explained what would be our strategic plan would be with high knowledge and confidence. He was successful in helping me keep my license from the DMV, and even before our mo...tion to suppress hearing the state had dropped the case! I am truly grateful for his help and assistance throughout that horrible process and I highly recommend Mr. Lashley. He is a dedicated Criminal Defense attorney that can be trusted and admired.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
