So happy I hired this lawyer

Danise is the best. I was so embarrassed about my case at first, it was my first offense so I didn’t even want to talk about it on the phone in front of anyone , she Emailed me back right away about what she could do for me. Other lawyers that I had tried to contact wouldnt speak with me personally, ...they had their assistant do it, or they barely spoke about details and I felt like they wouldn’t be bothered with me. Danise immediately made me feel comfortable talking to her on a personal level, and she didn’t make me feel like I was just another case ever; I spoke to her assistant as well but weeks after I had known Danise, her assistant is just as helpful and personable as she is. She was always willing to do what ever she had to to win my case. She took months of her time to help me on this and I’m so grateful for her help. My case was dissmissed and I will definitely come to her for any future legal help.

If you want to WIN! This is the lady you need in your corner!

I was referred to Denise by a friend. I needed an attorney to assist me with an outstanding warrant for my arrest as a result of not appearing in court. I was scared of the potential outcome of my foolish young man (23 yrs.) behavior since the warrant was 30 years old! (1987). Denise, was very comfor...ting and understanding and although her specialty is with more serious cases she offered to help me. She was very supportive and knowledgeable to my situation in all aspects of my case. All I needed to give her was my name and she took care of everything! I never had to look, find or fill out any other information. Ms. Ponton fought for me all the way! She is simply the BEST!! The first thing she succeeded in doing was keeping me out of jail. If someone doesn’t show up for court for 30 years a night in jail plus the need to post bond was the first thing the District Attorney wanted. Denise successfully argued against it getting the judge to rule in our favor. Although, the case was 30 years old the District Attorney would not work with us she wanted a conviction. This would have met a record as a convicted felon for me which Denise would not accept and meant the case would go to trial. Denise kept arguing and hitting them with laser targeted legal expertise. The District Attorney had to reschedule the case a few times because they couldn’t counter her attack. On the 3rd appearance the judge dismissed the case and all charges were dropped I would definitely recommend her to anybody that needs criminal assistance; especially if you need to stay out of jail!! PS His fee was also very reasonable when compared to what other lawyers wanted to take my case.
