Criminal Defense

Horrible Criminal Defense lawyer wouldn't recommend at all! Not defensive at all almost scared to talk in court it seems and doesn't work for the client but for and with the courts. Got all my money upfront and then literally told me take it ir leave it when it came to a plea that's was negotiated or... anything close to what I asked him to do. I was not satisfied at all with his representation. With the title criminal defense you'd think there'd be some defensiveness.

I was hit by a car last year. After a couple days in the hospital I went home but I never felt quite right. Then I got the hospital bill and realized I was in some trouble. I made a meeting with Mr. Miksis. He spent as long as I needed to understand everything that was going to happen. A couple month...s later not only did he get my bills paid but he managed to get a cash settlement put together for my pain from the accident. Mr. Miksis is a lifesaver!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Arthur is an excellent criminal law attorney who understands the nuances of navigating the court processes that lead to favorable outcomes for his client's. I've referred several clients to Arthur for criminal matters, which, in my mind, is the highest endorsement I can give any attorney. I highly recommend giving attorney Miksis a call if you, or a friend or relative, have a criminal law issue that you need help with."
