Won't let you down

Was falsely accused of a terrible crime. The first three lawyers I spoke to terrified me. Said that innocent or not, I would eventually be booked and spend time in jail during the trial. From the moment I first spoke to Paul, he immediately calmed my nerves. Told me he believed I was innocent and... that he would do everything it took to keep me from ever being charged. He trusted me enough to let me take a polygraph test, which eventually proved my innocence and led to the whole thing being dropped without me ever being charged. If your facing anything serious, and need a lawyer you can trust, you'd better call Paul.

Amazing!!!!!

Paul was great! I had no knowledge of the court system and was so anxious. He always made me feel calm and was available all the time. I had a felony charge that was reduced to a misdemeanor and diversion. The charge will eventually be expunged from my record. Paul was amazing and totally trustworthy.... He always let me know what to expect and kept me updated with all that I needed to know. I was a first time offender and Paul was an amazing support system with whom I trusted. Thanks Paul!!

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.

THIS LAWYER IS AMAZING! IF YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF TROUBLE GO WITH PAUL DICKMAN!

This guy is an amazing attorney! I easily could have went to jail, but with help from paul I didn't. He is very understanding with your situation, doesn't judge you and is still very kind. He costs are reasonable too! He is very laid back and gives off a friend type feeling versus a lawyer type! I ...hopefully won't ever need him in the future but if I do I will definetly use him.

The rusted trailer!

My husband and I have known Paul for several years now, we meet him re-guarding a suit my Great Uncle was involved in and have stayed in contact since( 6-7 years). My husband and I took in what we thought was a friend in off the ...street to help out and ended up in a bad situation. Long story starts now, my husband helped the guy haul a trailer to the junk yard (gaining nothing more then fuel money) believing him when he said he had permission from his girlfriends(was present) parents from the family owned property( no tickets in my husbands name, it was in theirs) to find out with in weeks that they both were hooked on heroin, I turned them into social services(they had a new baby), said friend and his girlfriend had a falling out and she tells Daddy that her babies dad and my husband stole some stuff from their property.....The night mare for my family starts here, my husband is charged with receiving stolen property over ten thousand dollars, I called Paul, he moved fast to have my husband released from jail (thank god)! My husband ends up taking the alford peal( meaning taking deal but refusal to admit guilt ) and agrees to diversion for 3 years( no more money to keep fighting and just wore out at this point) thinking that all will be ok and we can move on with our lives, WRONG! My husband is to report to probation monthly and they want all guns removed from house, we live in a split family home with my father all guns were in my fathers living quarters, and we had no access to), blah blah blah he is rearrested when Probation goes back on their word that they will come out and look at the house and then make a decision! All this happens a mist my father becoming very ill and being in the hospital having two surgeries within four days, Paul knew I had to have my husbands help , I work two jobs and have a child at home, my father is being released from the hospital with the understanding someone will be with him 24 hrs, Thanks to Paul and his big heart I have my husband everyday out on furloughs to help care for my father until this all can be resolved hopefully by the grace of God! Paul has received calls and texts from me around the clock with questions and fear, he offers all the help he can and more! I would tell anyone in a bad spot as we are to call him! He is very caring and takes his job above and beyond what is excepted of him!
