Alexandra Gonzalez-Waddington is truly a God send. Within 5 minutes of our initial conversation I KNEW this was the law firm I had to procure for my son's defense. She was extremely confident and knowledgeable regarding the military legal system. Although my ex-husband and I were both prior military ...we had NO idea how convoluted and unjust the military legal system really is. Alexandra never made us any promises other than she promised to fight the case as if she was fighting for one of her family members. Trust me she did just that - she exposed CID (Criminal Investigation Dept.) for their low down sneaky tactics they used to force a confession from my son. I’m 100% convinced that had I not hired this law firm my son would still be sitting behind bars in the Naval Brig in Charleston, SC. I'll tell anyone regardless of the cost its money well spent. My son is a free man, still active duty with no felony conviction or sex registry requirements. His JAG attorney had nearly convinced him to accept a plea deal in lieu of a court marital but as his parents we simply could not allow our son to take the fall for something he absolutely did not do. If you want an attorney who knows the regulations and is willing to put in the long hours to ensure you a fair trial then by all means hire this law firm. I promise you it will be the best decision you ever made in your life. If this is a new experience for you and you have questions I'll give the Waddington's permission to share my contact details so I can help answer some of your questions. I know firsthand how frightening this experience can be. I’m forever grateful for Alexandra for giving my son his life back.

I hired Michael and Alexandra after firing another civilian lawyer. I made a big mistake in hiring the first lawyer. His website looked pretty, but he was a fraud. When he started pushing me to plead guilty and do 2 years in jail the day after I paid him for the 32, I knew I had to find someone I cou...ld trust. I knew there was evidence against me, but I wanted a fighting chance. I first talked to Alexandra and she made me feel there was hope and that I had a chance of avoiding a conviction and being a sex offender, which where my goals. Their fee was higher than most of the other lawyers I talked to and double what my first lawyer charged, but it was nothing compared to a lifetime as a registered sex offender. Both Michael and Alexander worked on my case so I got two lawyers for the price. When I talked to Michael, he laid out the defense strategies and techniques we could use to either win the case or avoid a court martial. It was obvious he knew what he was doing. He knew pleading guilty was not an option for me and he never brought it up. He didn’t make empty promises and he was straightforward. Michale said the prosecutor has two choices. Drop the charges and let me out of the military or prove their case to a jury. My case was scheduled for a trial and I was getting nervous but I had faith that they were my best chance. A few weeks before the trial, I got a call with good news. The prosecution was now willing to dismiss the charges and let me out of the military instead of going to court. I am not sure what happened behind the scenes, but it was better than the 2 year deal my other lawyer negotiated. I jumped at the opportunity and now I moved on with my life and I’m finishing college. If I didn’t hire the Waddington’s theres a good chance I would be sitting in jail and my life would be ruined. If you find yourself in a legal problem, don't waste your time, call the Waddington’s and save yourself all the frustration and worry.

Expertise and efficiency is only surpassed by her compassionate and caring personality. I hired Alexandra to handle my child custody case. I was asking for my son to return to live with my older son and myself. She had remarried and was not providing a proper home for Dillan. The problem was, I live...d in California and my wife lived in Augusta, Georgia, where we got divorced. When I first spoke with Alexandra on the phone, she made me feel at ease. She let me know that it was difficult for a father to win custody of his 9 year old son. But she came up with a plan of action and we carefully prepared our case for the judge. She assured me that our best chance of success would require us to build a solid case. We did not rush in using emotion. We took our time and did a thorough job. I went through psychological evaluations (and so did my ex-wife), I was interviewed by a guardian, and we prepared the best case possible to prove that it my in Dillan’s best interest to live with me and my son. In the end, I was awarded custody of my son. He now lives with his brother and me. Thank you Alexandra. You are the best!
