Criminal DUI Defense

My son had a tragic accident in which he was charged with Criminal DUI Manslaughter. We retained his firm and Curtis stepped up as the most experienced counsel on this matter for the firm. Working with many attorneys throughout my professional career, I can judge his legal professionalism as excell...ent and was even more impressed with the results he achieved for my son.

First time retaining Crider.. I've Heard plenty of unbelievable success client stories & lets just say I'm now a believer!!!

I recently had to retain Crider for my boyfriend which is incarcerated. At first we hired a different attorney within his first week incarcerated & basically paid $1500 to be misled & with unanswered questions. Immediately with just a consultation phone call to Crider he was able to give me more insi...ght than the paid lawyer. We made the decision to hire Crider, best choice!! He's straight to the point, will only tell you what he's sure of, REALISTIC, & gets results!! Not to mention, I hired him a few weeks before my boyfriend's next court date and by that court date everything was already resolved with what I'm sure was the best possible result for his case & situation. Crider may be a extremely busy attorney, but somehow he manages to get the job done!! Idk what else to say but that my personal experience with him handling my boyfriend's case was AWESOME with no complaints!!

No Question about it ! He's good!!!!!!

I think if Curtis had the time to keep you informed to the max , he would ! If you hire him, sit back and relax. He might not be in touch everyday but you can rest assured . Curtis is working on it and he gets it done !!!!!!!!! If you need a magician, he's as close as they come!!!!

Sex Offender Lawyer

He is very good in his area and knows what he's talking about. He can be expensive, but what he tells you is what you get. He is a great sex offense lawyer and anyone in the area with that type of offense should definitley use him!!

Criminal

Paid 150.000 yes you read correct. Never received itemized bill were the money was spend. Not a good outcome at all. Was very disappointed after paid all this money . He can talk nice, but if it comes to trial leaving things out , and ruined it. Public defender could get the same results.
