Excellent Counsel

I contacted Paul Dickman in regards to a DUI charge. After reviewing my case he found that they pulled me over without probable cause and my case was dismissed. He was very professional and kept me informed about my case. I would definitely refer Mr. Dickman to anyone under any circumstances! Excelle...nt counsel!!

Paul is a fighter and a winner!

This was my first experience ever hiring an attorney, and Paul was absolutely incredible. I was charged with a DUI and the ramifications if found convicted would have led to major issues with my medical licensure. Prior to hiring Paul, I discussed my case with three other attorneys. Despite what I fe...lt like was a very winnable case, all three suggested that I plead guilty. However, Paul assured me that this was a winnable case and was willing to fight for me from day one. The trial process lasted almost 9 months, and the anxiety that accompanied it was terrifying. However, Paul was always there to reassure me that we were in a good position to win. Paul went above and beyond to prepare for my case hiring private investigators, expert witnesses, and subpoenaing traffic records. He worked very hard to ensure that I had the greatest chance of winning possible. Sure enough, the day of trial the prosecution dropped the charges because they knew they didn’t stand a chance against the defense Paul had prepared. I was ecstatic with my outcome and with the work that Paul Dickman did for me over the last 9 months. Paul is a consummate professional, who works day and night for his clients and I would strongly recommend him for anyone in need of legal help. There is no other attorney I would ever consider for my friends and family. Paul is not only an exceptional attorney but an exceptional person as well!

Look no further

Here in the USA on a green card, trying to apply for US citizenship. I was charged with a DUI in Northern KY. Didn't submit to the breath test, and the field test video was showing pretty clearly I was not under the influence. Still a very stressful time - not being able to drive for over 3 months, w...orried that a DUI on my record would severely reduce my chances of getting US citizenship etc. I did not know of any DUI lawyer. Chose Paul after reading the reviews here. The reviews were very accurate. Paul is a great lawyer and a great person. If you want a competent lawyer, who also answers his phone personally, get Paul. He won my case. Got the whole thing thrown out. Paul has a great understanding of human psychology, understands the stress you're going through and he is just great at what he does. So your stress is considerably lowered. Does not charge unjustified fees, not cheap, just reasonable and worth every penny. Definitely recommend!

Christmas Miracle

On Christmas Eve, I was picked up on a fraudulent warrant. Kenton Co. Circuit Court had neglected to recall it. Once I was booked into the jail & able to make a phone call, I called my daughter & girlfriend & told them to call my attorney, Paul Dickman. They both seemed skeptical & being girls, they ...were hysterical that I was in jail on Christmas Eve. It was looking like it would be several days before I would get out because the courts were all closed. To top it all off, Paul was on vacation on the other side of the earth in Australia. I told the girls to calm down & just call him, even though it was around 5am on Christmas Day where he was. I waited patiently at the jail & about a half hour later I knew something was happening because one of the employees told me that my attorney just called. I’m still not sure exactly how he pulled it off but just as Campbell Co. was loading me into a car to take me to Kenton Co., someone came rushing out and said my paperwork came through and I was being released. I was outside waiting when my girlfriend arrived to pick me up around 6:15pm. I’d been there less than 6 hours. Paul spent the early morning hours of Christmas Day and his vacation from halfway around the world to make a Christmas Miracle happen for me & make the endless phone calls necessary to get me released. He is hands down the best attorney I’ve ever had. I will definitely call him if I am ever in need again & strongly recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel.

Lawyer for life!

I was facing some pretty serious charges and was freaking out. Paul worked with me and never wasted my time. He made sure what we were doing with my case was what I wanted to do. He made sure I understood all of my options and didn't bullshit me. Lawyer for life.
