Highly recommended to anyone dealing with the Legal system and needs a confident reassuring guide

I have never had to deal with the legal system, until an incident I had with Johnny Law several months ago. Would have been a Felony, and if you don’t know, having one of those on your background check basically ruins your life. I could have gone out and beat the lights out of someone and got changed... with a lesser degree crime than drug possession. But hey that’s just my issue with the system, and let me say it can be very confusing, if you don’t have help. That’s why if you have to deal with the legal system I recommend you give Paul Dickman a call. Paul knows how this game is played; He knows the buildings, he knows the judges, he knows the prosecutors, and he knows how to get results. He can walk you through all the confusing loops and turns to keep you and your loved ones from dealing with the terror of uncertainty that is the Legal System. What Paul really brings to the table is confidence, and that goes a long way. His confidence helped to reassure my family that we could deal with the issue and avoid having a big red mark on my record. Paul is also a steal of a deal for the service he provides, the cost of having a felony on ones record compared to the cost of his services is a clear answer to me. Highly recommended to anyone dealing with the Legal system and needs a confident reassuring guide.

He really is that good!

I will start off by saying I really don't like attorneys period. Paul is the exception. Our case is much different than most. It was a scenario of not knowing how the injury happened. It took almost a year to "connect all the dots." Paul has worked very hard and did tons of research. He gave me... advice that I didn't really want to hear at times. But, hindsight he was right. Honesty and integrity go a very long way. Not once did he give up and gave encouragement to us when it was needed. He knows the law even in the "gray areas" that isn't written clearly in the law books. I lost of ton of time and money hiring the wrong attorneys. I am glad I found this attorney at the right time. He actually thinks before jumping the gun and I can tell you some other attorneys don't. Paul isn't the cheapest attorney but when it comes to your life and your family- second best isn't good enough. Paul is always responsive via text, email or phone. Over the last year or so; he has responded on weekends, late evenings and even early morning when others are still asleep. I could not imagine going through this tough time in our lives with someone else representing us- he truly does have my family's best interest in mind.

More than just a DUI!

I chose Paul Dickman to represent me on the advice of a friend for whom Paul had handled a rather tricky felony charge (successfully). Paul handled a DUI case for me in 2012 that had more major ramifications than simply losing my license or getting higher insurance rates; as a foster parent, I ran th...e risk of losing my fostering status if convicted of the charge. Paul understood this and undertook every effort to gain an acquittal (which he did). He examined the charges from every angle, questioned everything. He got the police video thrown out because it didn't sync to real time (by only a matter of a few seconds -- ingenious!) and even managed to block a good portion of the officer's testimony. Throughout the process, he kept me very involved and informed, texting or calling me to report every development, no matter how minor (although, as a defendant, nothing ever felt minor to me!). He explained the process thoroughly so that there were no surprises along the way, told me what to expect, and gave me constant encouragement and reassurance throughout. We wound up taking the case to trial, and Paul's cross-examination of the arresting officer had the poor man so flummoxed that I actually wound up feeling for the poor guy (hey, the officer was just doing his job...). The case that had me so stressed for months wound up with a unanimous not-guilty jury verdict in under forty minutes of deliberation. Would I recommend the services of Paul Dickman? Absolutely. He may not have actually saved my life, but at the time that's certainly what it felt like. And on a really happy ending note, Paul even recommended the family attorney when my wife and I wound up adopting the little boy we had fostered for a few years. Although I hopefully will not be requiring legal counsel any time soon, Paul Dickman is certainly who I will turn to if the need ever arises.

I Give Paul a 10/10

When faced with the worst possible aligations, I chose Paul to help protect me. He navigated me through the process, informing me of the multiple possible outcomes, and made descisions based on my wishes. In the end Mr. Dickman was able to show that the "evidence" being brought forward was false and ...the case was dismissed before it really began. Although they may be on the expensive side, you WILL get what you pay for. I trusted Dickman Law Offices and they delivered. I would recommend Paul and his partners to everyone.

Satisfied client

Paul was great. He answered all calls in a prompt manner. Represented me at every court appearance. Never made any guarantees, but was able to make things happen. If you are looking for an attorney that represents you, Paul is the man to go to. Thank you for all you have done, if I'm ever facing a le...gal situation, I will definitely give Paul a call.
