Horrible

Horrible lawyer. He did a case for me and charged a set fee. I was supposed to go in and prep for court with him and his questions. He never called. He was never available. He avoided me until court. Of course he lost. No preparation. Not a single care about me case. He was supposed to help me with s...omething after trial avoided my calls for months until I gave up and did it myself. Funny thing he helped a friend of mine. She is a very beautiful young lady and always answered her calls and catered to her. I have had lawyers for a lot of things in life and this guy was the worst one.

DO NOT HIRE HIM!! He will not fight for you

We hired this attorney after a referral. My family never had to hire an attorney before, no one has ever been arrested. After years of waiting for trial. He did absolutely nothing, There was so much evidence that he just sat on without helping my family member at all. He only cared about how they wer...e dressed. Never even prepared them to testify.After 2 day of a shady trial, my love one was convicted. This attorney could have helped but sat back and did not even objected to anything in the trial.. This has been a horrible bad dream for our family that he couldn’t care less about!!! Please do your research!!! Find another attorney. I would not wish what we have been through and still continue to go through 5years later on anyone.

Worst lawyer in the country

I hired him to resent me in a case once I paid him he offered me a deal I refused . He tells the judge what the state wanted and I ended up going to prison for over 2 years. Stay away he sucks I know first hand.

I'm so disappointed that I hired him

If you are anything but white don't use this lawyer. He will not put up a good fight for minorities. I was told directly by someone in his office how horrible it is to see families of minorities working extra jobs to pay for "these" people to get them out just to reoffend again. Don't waste your tim...e thinking this lawyer is objective and will side with his client.

DONT USE HIM

Kelly Collier is the worst attorney I have ever come in contact with! We had testimony and witnesses to support our case and he did nothing but side with the state the entire trial. A PD could have defended us better anyone reading this please find yourself a good lawyer one that will fight for you ...and whats right, not how much money they can suck out of you.
