This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Very satisfied

I want to thank the Reaves law firm they treated me like I was family when I first went to them and my case was handled in a timely manor I was very comfortable with Reaves doing what they do.

The man that saved my career and my life.

A sum of 2 years ago I was charged with 6 aggravated assault charges, and later the DA felt I got the lesser charges so they decide to charge me with first degree attempted murder. I was arrested October 28, Mr. Reaves came on the 30th just two days after, I was impressed. When we first talked and he... gave me a consultation he made sure he let me know that he will fight for me to the fullest extent. I didnt expect to much but I wasn't in full belief because I was in a city that wronged me, but over the course of 21 days in jail attorney Reaves built my confidence by displaying his incentive, knowledge, and determination. I was his first criminal case, so in all other metaphors he took those gloves off and prepared to win. He knew what possible outcomes could take place but his diligence allowed him not to be defeated. Even though I had no criminal history and I was eligible for first offense diversion he didnt take no plea, even when I was reindicted for the higher charge he never gave up on me. During the course of 2 years we had several trials and although he was a civil attorney he went against two of the most respected defense attorneys Memphis had to offer. But Mr. Reaves was prepared for them and surprised them as well. In the end result I can still be an engineer with my clear name because he was triumphant. I owe him so much more then money and gratitude he saved my life and I'm eternally grateful. If you ask me what Lawyer is the best for any situation civil and or criminal I will say attorney Reaves. He knows the value of your life and your possessions and he will fight for them with all he has.

Clark's review

I am very pleased with the work done by attorney Henry Reaves. He handle my case with grace and dignity. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find a honest lawyer to fight for me, but with him I did. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

"Henry has the 4 traits that I look for in a lawyer – skill, experience, integrity and tenacity. Henry leverages his considerable trial experience to negotiate favorable settlements for his clients. When that does not work, he stands ready to draw on his vast litigation skills to try your case to verdict. I highly recommend attorney Henry Reaves."
