Philip Averbuck

Mr. Philip Averbuck had the felony charges that were against me dropped in no time. He then helped me w/the misdemeanor gun charge. We selected a jury, then had the trial the next day. Mr. Averbuck questioned the 3 people who were testifying against me. He cross examined them carefully and tactfully,... thereby establishing much doubt in the juror's minds. All the while being a gentleman in his questioning. He carefully brought up specific details as to what actually took place. Each one of the witnesses were discredited as to what they said. The jury was quickly convinced that these three people had no clue as to what happened. Their testimony was so conflicting with each other that the court employees were laughing. Mr. Averbuck was on a roll at this time. He gave me a feeling of confidence that I can't describe. After hearing their testimony, Mr. Averbuck called me to the witness stand. I was very nervous as I had never done this before ! He introduced me to the jury and then proceded to question me. I was allowed to give my whole side of the story. Mr. Averbuck got permission from the judge to allow me to show my serious medical condition to the court. At this point I was very secure in my own mind that things would work out. After about 10 or 15 minutes I was told I could then step down. My story was absorbed completely by the jury. At this point, the jury left the courtroom to go into deliberation. The judge and the court clerk stepped out of the court to take a short break. Within less than 10 minutes, the bailiff announced to the judge that a verdict was reached. As the judge stepped up to the bench, I heard him say, wow, that was fast ! Even the clerk said that it was fast ! I was so tense at this moment that you could hear my heart beat. The jury foreman announced, NOT GUILTY ! I almost passed out ! I was so relieved ! I thanked Mr. Averbuck and the jury and said God bless you ! If not for the expertise of Mr. Averbuck, only God knows what would have happened to me. I started to cry in relief. I thanked the judge and even shook his hand. I know that Mr. Averbuck was the right man for my case. No one in that court that day had ever seen a jury reach such a fast verdict. I think we set a new record w/my case that day. Mr. Averbuck has really lived up to his expectations. I would hire him again in a heartbeat ! His lovely secretary Carol was very courteous and helpful as well as assuring me that I had hired the right man. I took two different friends with me each time I went to see Mr. Averbuck, and they said they even approved of him 100%. They heard him speak and liked his approach to my situation. He even has a good sense of humor ! I am grateful to both Mr. Averbuck and Carol for their dedication to winning my case. It is one thing when your friends believe you are telling the truth, but when your attorney, the judge, and the jury believe you, that is the ultimate ! Thank you Mr. Averbuck and thank you Carol ! I know God put you two people in my life because he knew you could prove my innocence !
