Highly Recommended

For my first DUI offense I was unsure how to go about even finding an attorney to represent myself while having my best interests at heart. Luckily I was able to meet Mr. Joseph Easton and after a discussion regarding his thoughts on my case I decided to hire him. His demeanor and personality are ve...ry welcoming and understanding and he commits fully to the task of helping someone through the entire legal process. This was very helpful personally because I've never experienced any legal issues previously so having Mr. Easton's help along the way was very appreciated. In my personal case Mr. Easton was able to amend a DUI 1st degree misdemeanor to a Reckless Driving while also getting adjudication withheld on the Reckless Driving charge. I was tremendously pleased with the outcome and have to say it was only with the help of Mr. Easton and Leppard Law that this was achievable. Overall Mr. Easton and Leppard Law have been extremely helpful and very easy to contact throughout the length of time I've been in contact with them. I highly recommend Mr. Easton and Leppard Law to anyone who is in need of consultation regarding a DUI charge.

Fantastic! Bye-Bye DUI!

Joe Easton of leopard law was retained by me as I was charged with DUI while on vacation. Outcome?DISMISSED!! Not on a technicality, not amended to a lesser charge, no conditions etc. etc. Absolute and total dismissal! Perhaps the prosecutors know him and don't want to do battle. Perhaps wh...en they do battle with Joe they come out losing so they surrender from the jump. I couldn't tell you how the sauce is made but it was made and it was good. I had to retain Joe from out of state and since this allegation/charge is so devastating in a person's life, I had made several calls and wrote many emails leading up to the first conference hearing and not one time did my concerns, emails or phone calls go unanswered. Everything was explained clearly. If I had to call back for clarity, it was re-explained. Two of the calls spilled over while he was at home on a Friday night. Being former military, that's dedication and commitment. His support staff, knowledgeable and compassionate. Law partners, I'm sure equally talented. I really thought my life was going to be crushed in so many ways. If there were any more issues or any issues arise in the future of a legal nature, I don't have to think for more than a second… Joe Easton and Leopard law! I was never a big believer in reviews but I can assure you, this is a real and true review from a client who could not have received a better outcome. Thanks Joe!

Excellent Law Firm! Anyone needing a DUI Lawyer, Joe and Leppard Law is the place.

From the moment I sat down with Joe and Joel at their office I knew I had made the right choice. They made me feel very at ease and instilled confidence. I thought they may be able to get my DUI down to a reckless driving at best, but they had the case completely dismissed. No charges! I didn't even ...have to go to court. They were excellent and I can not thank them enough. The whole team was incredibly nice, courteous and always made time to explain anything I had questions about. I would highly recommend Leppard Law to anyone needing legal advice or representation. They are professional, genuine, and truly amazing!

A Thank You to Mr. Easton

Joe Easton was my defense attorney in 2014-2015. He was an extremely patient, tedious, and detail oriented lawyer. Not only was Mr. Easton well versed in the law, he relayed his understanding with my family and I which made the proceedings more comprehensible and less stressful. After my trials succe...ssful outcome, I confidently and assuring recommend Mr. Easton to whoever is searching representation.

"I've known Joe for nearly ten years. His dedication to his clients and craft are the reasons why he has developed such an excellent reputation among criminal defense lawyers, especially in the field of impaired driving. His knowledge and aptitude in this area of law is vast and I would not hesitate, even briefly, having him handle my case. I know he has had drunken driving cases amended, or even dismissed, which is no mean feat. Choosing him as your lawyer is a very smart decision and I definitely endorse Attorney Joe Easton."

"Attorney Easton and I have represented co-defendants at the trial-court level. We've also represented the same defendant at different stages of the criminal process. Attorney Easton is excellent in court and has obtained great results for his clients. I am aware of at least two full acquittals in two different multi-count, felony jury trials.
