I spent four years in the United States Marine Corps Infantry. I had the honor of serving in Mogadishu, Somalia during Operation Restore Hope and the Phillipines during the eruption of Mount Pinatubo. After the Marine Corps, I attended Washington State University and The Florida State University College of Law. Immediately upon graduation from Law School I began working for the State Attorneys Office in the State of Florida prosecuting misdemeanor and felony crimes in the 19th Judicial Circuit. In 2004, I opened the Colter Law Group wherein we defend Families, good people accused of crimes, and those injured in automobile accidents.

STAY AWAY!
I researched attorneys before hiring Tom Colter and the only good thing about him is his tech/PR team. He will take every cent you make and hang you out to dry. No one there owns up to their mistakes and it’s appalling that he uses his veteran status to screw other veterans over.

I hired this law firm and it was a huge mistake. There is no true representation. Please don't make the mistake of hiring them. It will cost you a lot and nothing done. They have a bad reputation among other attorneys. Hire someone else.

If I could give zero stars it wouldn’t be low enough.
This guy is a pure hack! It’s like he never went to law school and never saw the inside of a courtroom. Amazing that he even passed the bar. Steals your money with no results. BEWARE!!

Do not hire this unprofessional thief
Talks the talk but then sends inexperience staff to court, who lack not just experience but basic knowledge of law. They will charge you even for voicemails left on your phone, and when I tried to call and ask about charges he screamed at me and was extremely disrespectful and derogatory, telling me...
"Tom is a fighter through and through! If you or a loved one need help fighting for your freedom, Tom has the tenacity and experience to help you through the process (and the trial results to prove it). I fully endorse this lawyer."
