Best First Call Ever!

Ms. Powers was the first attorney I reached out to based on her reviews. My 16-year old was charged with a DUI. Ms. Powers immediately answered and we discussed the case. She provided immediate details, discussed a payment plan, and officially represented my child. It was the best decision I made. Th...ank you so much for making this matter less stressful than what it was.

Okay, so she's pretty, BUT...

Traveled the world, met so many people, but wish I met THIS ONE as a friend BEFORE having to need her for a poor decision I made. The good news is she did more than just represent me, she helped CHANGE me.

Outstanding Attorney

Attorney Powers did an excellent job for me. She kept me apprised of all the facts and details as she handled my case. Ms. Powers promptly returned my calls and took the time to alleviate all my concerns. Outstanding attorney.!

Unfortunately the lowest rating is a 1-star review.

Absolute waste of money! I was arrested in July 2014 for DUI with Serious Bodily Injury. I made mistake of hiring Ms. Powers as my counsel. In the beginning, meaning - prior to recieiving payment from me, Ms. Powers level of enthusiasm in taking my case and putting my best interest first was everyt...hing I sought after in an attorney. Then i made my $7,500 payment to her. Everything changed. I ended up getting a 56 month prison sentence followed by three years probation. This was my first DUI. I found out later that vast majority of people with same charge receive no more than two years prison. Most receiving only probation. Bottom line, please do not waste your money or trust with this person. I'm believer in karma. Gonna pray for you Cheryl.

DUI and Criminal Defense my experierence.

I will never get another attorney. She will be the only one my family and I will ever use. She is very persistant and proffesional. You are not just another case to her, she is very personable. She is very swift in accomplishing what you may need. I dont know what I would have done without her. She h...as helped me and my family tremendously.
