The magical experience

(My situation is a long and complicated issue so I am going to keep it brief and simple). I shut down my business and removed my belongings it’s as simple as that, but it wasn’t! I woke up one morning to a serious accusation of Grand Theft! The accuser maliciously managed to pull all strings to have ...me arrested, involved the media to blemish my good name and reputation I worked hard to build. This accuser was like the mafia of the town I was in, a big bully who thought he could get away with anything. Things continued to get complicated I lost my finances, my home and almost my sanity I couldn’t find employment anywhere. Although I had proof of my innocence gushing out of my ears, the case seemed to have dragged on for months because of an incompetent lawyer I had hired at the start of all this ridicules. This serious accusation hanging over my shoulder with financial disaster caused me serious stress, then health problems both psychological and physical. I definitely needed a magical lawyer to wave a wand to resolve this craziness once and for all. I finally got rid of the incompetent lawyer and a friend I confided in who is also a lawyer highly recommended Lyle Mazin. Thank God! he is amazing! Lyle immediately returned my call, set up a meeting and start working on my case the very minute I handed my life in his hands “literally” this wasn’t just any case, this was a serious case. (A Grand Theft, if convicted, is punishable by 15 years in prison) When I met Lyle, my first impression was, this is it! This is the lawyer I want representing me, he is fierce, knowledgeable, and he is confident. Although he did not make any premature promises, he certainly made me feel at ease that he was going to look out for my best interest and nothing was going to stop him. He took my case so seriously that for a moment I thought it was his life in jeopardy and not mine. Lyle is professional, he is honest, dedicated, he is straight forward and he doesn’t deal with bull s***. I trusted Lyle and EVIDENTLY I was right in my impressions of him, he had the case dropped and finally I am free and clear of all accusations and now I am trying to put my life back together. Did I mention he is also comical? We were at the courthouse waiting to get a date appointed to pick our jury, the judge called my name Lyle jumped up, I was sitting there dumb founded when the judge smiled at me I looked over at Lyle and he was practically doing the cartwheel and I am thinking ‘what just happened?’ this case dragged on for so long that it became a part of my lifestyle I couldn’t imagine it ending. Lyle made jokes all the way. he was happier than I was, no more court? what do I do now? I was so accustomed to appearing in court for a new court date each month and Lyle put a stop to it, ok the jokes are between us but I’ve never seen a lawyer happier than his client. He didn’t just stop there he continued to guide me and help me. I am forever grateful to my friend for recommending Lyle and I am forever grateful to Lyle for taking my case and clearing me from all this nonsense I had to live with for the past 15 months. I can talk about it and joke about it now but living through it all was no joke. I wish the best for Lyle with all my heart, his name is Magic to me and I will always highly recommend him. Best of Luck to you Lyle and thank you, again!

Just Awesome.........

First I will tell you this was my family’s first hiccup with the law. My youngest son just turned 18 made a bad decision and was facing a felony in the 2nd degree. That is punishable by up to 15 years in prison and a $ 5,000 fine. Needless to say I was feeling like I was going to have a heart attack... and he was to. I did a lot of research and had made several calls to some of the most prominent criminal defense attorneys in town. One of which was to Lyle. No one called me back. Within an hour of placing my call Lyle called me to discuss the facts of the case. He later invited us to his office for further consultation. Before leaving his office we hired him on the spot. His knowledge of the law and his aggressiveness was all I needed to see. He assured us while no guarantees things would work out. He calmed me down and I was able to calm my son down. No more feeling like I was going to have a heart attack. In the ensuing weeks I placed several calls and emails to Lyle. Some of which were after 10 pm and on weekends. To my surprise I would get a return email and or call usually within several minutes of me calling or emailing him. Wow. You just don’t get that kind of service from any one in any business. He let us know what the process was going to be and how the system worked the whole way. My son was arrested on 05/03/2012 and he had the case settled by June 14th. He knew my son was starting his college education on June 21st and made sure he was able to meet his move in date for school. Lyle has a great reputation and great working relationship with the State Attorney’s office. They also know that he is not afraid to take the case to trial if necessary. I am so satisfied with his performance that hopefully we will never need his services again, I would not hesitate to hire him again or refer him to someone in need of his services. The outcome exceeded our expectations. Great job Lyle. Thanks for saving my son.

Experienced, Very Knowledgable and Reliable

I was accused of one of the most serious crimes in this country but I was innocent of any wrong doing. Attorney Lyle Mazin had my case dropped before any charges were filed or any arrests were made. Lyle worked aggressively from the moment another attorney referred him to me for representation. The ...advantages of having Lyle as my lawyer are almost too many too name. He was constantly keeping me updated on the status of my case, he was ALWAYS 5 steps ahead, he was very easy to get ahold of by any means of communication and he has so much knowledge on any topic of criminal law. Lyle has spent more time in court than the vast majority of attorneys and his experience showed throughout my case. He is a down-to-earth genuine guy and is easy to talk to. He takes each individual case very seriously. Even after he prevented any charges from being filed, he continued to work hard for me until the very end. He fought for me so I would not get kicked out college for the same criminal reasons. He kept criminal charges from ever being filed, and even after he wanted to help. No charges were filed, no arrests were made, and I was not kicked out of college. My life has resumed as it was before all because of his works. I would recommend Attorney Lyle Mazin to anybody and I know that you will feel like you are in better hands with Lyle than with anyone else.

"Let me tell you this guy Lyle and the most important reason you should consider him as your attorney. He’s 100% invested in your cases, when I saw all in, I mean Saturday morning at 3am in the office working his butt off all in. So much of what happens in court is based upon the reputation of your attorney in the legal community. When I was a cop I went head to head with Mr. Mazin and now as an attorney he and I are friends and I look to him as a mentor. Charged with a serious crime? – You can’t go wrong with this guy!"
