Superior Lawyer Leadership

This is a one of a kind lawyer that will go above and beyond any other in his field of work. This gentleman will make sure he covers more than just all the court bases with his clients he has as he genuinely cares for those that hire him for their protection. He fights for what is just and fair for a...ll his clients as those on the other side of the table just want to make a name for their own selves. He understands life happens and mistakes can be made but life doesn’t stop which means he gets the fair deal or better for us. This gentleman I hired has kept the evil out of my life and has granted me a second chance to prove my society character is better than what got me in his office in the first place. He didn’t judge me, he just wanted my honesty and in return he gave me the exact same thing. I can’t thank this man enough for looking after my case as he made no promises just a deal that allowed me to have my life those on the other side of the table wanted to take away from me in an unjust manner! Seriously from the bottom of my Heart Thank You Paul!

Mr. Paul Dickman Saved My Life

My wife and I had come to terms with the probability that I was going to be found guilty for something I did NOT do. However, Paul was tenacious and never gave up while keeping our stress as low as possible. Paul methodically reviewed all of the evidence and made a series of recommendations while l...eaving the decision up to me and always communicating and always keeping me in the loop. His recommendations were of course always correct! :) Then yesterday after almost two years Paul was able to get my case dismissed without even going to trial. This is the guy (and his team) that you want on your side when you think all could be lost....

Great attorney! No felony!

First of all Paul, thank you so much for helping us out in our not simple situation! We were terrified and scared because of what we were facing. Because of what happened to our daughter, her life could be completely ruined, shattered to pieces if we didn’t have Paul. We tried to find an attorney, b...ut didn’t feel comfortable with any of them until we came across Paul’s name. Immediately he made us feel hopeful, calmed us down and started working on the case right away. What I love about Paul is that you can get hold of him any time and I mean it. Second, he is “brutally “ honest and We love it. No false hopes, no lies, just a deep trust between attorney and the client. He is not the one that would tell you what you want to hear, but he will tell you what you have to do to get out of trouble and you better listen to him. We did and never regretted. He is very professional and very respected among legislators and fellow attorneys. In addition, he is very personable, easy going and genuinely cares about his clients and what’s happening in their lives. Even now, after everything is done and over with we still keep in touch. I would recommend Paul as a great attorney for any case, even the most complicated, like our was. Because of Paul our daughter got a second chance in life and doing fantastic now. Thanks again Paul for all your help!!

Great service!

Paul represented my son in a very difficult case, as well as follow-up court appearances. He successfully got probation for my son rather than incarceration. He has made himself available many times on short notice and consistently returns calls or emails as soon as he’s able. There have been times I... messaged him and he simply replied he was in court and he’d be in touch once he was finished. He fought for my son and I appreciate his efforts and skill very much!

I strongly recommend hiring Paul Dickman.

I was arrested and charged with some very serious charges in October 2018. Researching lawyers, Paul stood out as someone with experience in my area of need. Paul was up front and truthful about everything. I was potentially facing 10+ years in prison, but Paul assured me, this would not happen. ...Facing what, at the time, was a corrupt Prosecutor’s office in Boone County and a Florence Police department that refused to acquire exculpatory evidence that would prove my side of the story and clearly take the biggest charge against me off the table, Paul fought for me. He was always available and he was able to get me a deal with the court that was more than satisfactory, considering the very big hurdles in front of us. Three years later, my case has now been dismissed and next is getting my record expunged. Paul knows how the sometimes unfair system works and will do the job it takes to make sure you are not being punished for making a mistake and ruining your future. You need to hire Paul.
