Great Job Attorney Gil Colon Bartow, FLorida

In 2013 of June, I was arrested by a former business partner who accused me of crimes committed and shortly after I was arrested in Georgia then extradited to Florida to face my charges. I was charged with 5 major felonies of theft and related crimes of theft. The experience of being charged, jail ti...me and being under investigation was the worst experience I have ever faced both mentally, physically and spiritually. My wife and I hired Mr. Colon while I was in Georgia and all along the way Mr. Colon and his team comforted, gave direction and kept us up to date with what was going on. My wife and I knew from the beginning I was innocent and that the charges filed against must have derived from lies. After investigation by our Lawyer Colon our conclusion of foul play by the supposed victim was correct, my former partner not only screwed me out of a business I built, he lied to the cops hoping to damage us, hurt my family and screw us further financially. Even though Mr. Colon knew by my documentation that I was innocent he did not play around with the cops and state attorneys office because corruption and unfair practices exist in the legal system, Excellent representation are always a must. Mr. Colon took my case serious so he was very thorough with my documents, witness's and knowledge I presented to him. Mr. Colon is not just an attorney he proved to me that he has the legal smarts, exhibiting above normal in his common sense, and was wise concerning how to deal with the state attorneys office, the victim and assigned judges to my case. Mr. Colon knows how to think from both sides and move accordingly. He definitely has a plan from the get go on how to protect you, represent you, and slowly but strategically reveal the truth. All of my questions when asked were answered if not immediate they were over time. Mr. Colon was sensitive to my needs, made me feel that he was not just looking for money but that he was in my corner, he gave me attention to detail in areas I thought was important and that we requested. Mr. Colon as an attorney is still alive and breathing as a PERSON having Godly feelings and thoughts, he is not dead from the heart up. If you are in need of an criminal attorney I recommend Mr. Colon, He is not cheap but neither is jail time, dragged out investigation, scared name and or lack of peace. All of which cost you something.
