Saved My Ass!

Will Hanlon is a well known and respected lawyer. He has kept me out of prison two times now. My bond was $65,000 and by some work of god, he got me released on my own recognizance and placed on probation. Once I was on probation I violated with a new charge. Again, Will saved the day and kept me out... of prison once more by working his magic and getting my placed BACK on probation. I would bet the bank on Mr. Hanlon and will always look to him for my legal issues!!

DUI case lowered from a Felony to a Misdemeanor Reckless Driving

Will helped me dramatically with my DUI case. I originally started out with a Felony DUI where I was facing jail time and a ten year loss of drivers license. As a newly graduated college student, I was very scared about getting a felony and never being able to get the career level job I need. Continu...ing graduate school onward to finish a doctorate degree was in jeopardy. I needed someone that was confident and understood the importance of this case, and it being imperative that he either get the charges dropped or at the least get them lowered. Will did what he said he was going to do for me which was get my charges lowered to a reckless driving and continue on with my life, school, and career. That was the biggest thing in hiring Will was he was going to do what he said he was going to do for me and my family. Will definitely succeeded in this case and I would hire him again for any legal matter I needed handled, he is worth every penny I paid. The case outcome was a big relief to myself, family, and friends when he helped me get the result I needed. I recommend Will's knowledge, business manor, value, and years of experience to anyone needing legal representation.

Mr. Hanlon accomplished what other Lawyers claimed, "There is nothing that could be done by any Lawyer."

I asked Mr. Hanlon to represent me over a year ago and I refuse to go with someone else now. He was honest with me the entire time he has represented me. He made me feel calm through major crimes from sealing a felony to serious 3rd DUI charges with another list of charges that had serious consequenc...es simultaneously. Charges like every lawyer I called either hung the phone up on me because it wasn't possible or just told me it wasn't possible. All I did was get lucky when I called and spoke to he's paralegal. She is the most resourceful person I now know. My case was dismissed and my record is sealed. They saw a way to help me get another chance at life and seen it through. He was always up front with me, and knows the law. Mr. Hanlon seemed like a good family man that is just doing the best job he can... And it defiantly showed.

Save your money for a better lawyer!

I hired Mr.Hanlon for a few felony charges very small one being dui... He did absolutely nothing for me! I could have represented my self and got the same outcome. I paid him up front no payments and never gave him the run around about anything, whatever he wanted from me he got. I read reviews and t...hought he would be the best fit for me and I was totally wrong, he was even over 1 hour late to my court date and sent me to the wrong court house! Luckily I was early and had enough time to get to the correct court house before a bench warrant was put out for me for failure to appear.... now here is the worst part, after he did such a poor job of representing my case I still gave him another chance and paid him to get the probation early terminated at my half way point...... His secretary called me and told me she made me a court date for a over month later which was obsurd! I called and set my own court date and represented my self & set my own court date in less than two weeks! When the secretary told me that was the soonest court date available. nothing but lies, He only cares about him self and really does not care about his clients! I did not even ask for the refund because I didn't even want too deal with them anymore it was that bad. It took days for phone calls to be returned. Thanks to myself I am off probation!
