Highly Recommended

I contacted the office of attorney Flanagan and he responded the same day. I could not be more satisfied with his representation of my son. Mr. Flanagan was able to arrange for the charges (there were multiple) to be reduced and combined. Took it from a felony to a misdemeanor. It kept my son out of... jail/prison. You will not only be very happy you chose him to represent you , you will appreciate his and his assistant Lori for their responsiveness to your case.

Best ever all I can say is WOW

I had a $150,000 bond he got it lowered to $2500. He has helped me greatly with the bond hearing as well as my case. He is a real great guy who deals with you personally. His rates are very reasonable for the effort he puts forth towards your case. Will go out of his way for you. Best lawyer period.........

Case Overview

Congrats to Attorney Flanagan, for winning my Criminal Case. I was charged with Domestic Violence- Aggravated Battery, for protecting myself with Self-Defense. I have never been arrested or in any trouble, until this matter occurred. I also worked in Administration in Healthcare. All my Healthcare Li...censes was suspended from AHCA. I could have faced 24 months to 15 years in prison. Due to it was my first time offense, state wanted to drop the charge to battery or misdemeanor, but thats not what I wanted. I wanted the entire case to be dismissed. It took a little under a year, but Attorney Flanagan did his job and got my entire case dismissed. I am now able to get all my Licenses back in good standing and return to work. I am so happy, to be getting my life back, without any restrictions. If you need a Attorney that’s effective, but reasonable with the cost at the same time, then you should give Attorney Flanagan a call.

Excellent Representation

I was in a situation where I wrongfully accused. Mr. Flanagan could see that and helped get this dropped in exactly one month. I could not be more pleased with the outcome, his assistant or him. I would highly recommend Mr. Flanagan for anyone who is in need of a great criminal attorney. He could... sense how terribly wrong this charge actually was, and did everything he could to make the situation right. And, he and his staff were very compassionate. Told me not to worry about anything, that was his job. Class act
