This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

the

I had never been in trouble with the law as adult, until the night i was. I called Mr. Wicks, who promptly worked around my schedule to meet for consult. Mr. Wicks addressed all of my concerns and quickly began gathering information and making arrangements with the state attorney. His experience and ...hard work resulted in the best possible outcome for my case. I would recommend him to anyone and would certainly retain him again, but here's to hoping i never have to.
