Definitely your guy.

I cannot recommend this attorney enough. I am from out of state and my case was in Kentucky, so having an attorney I could trust from hours away was incredibly important to me. From the very beginning, he was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and accessible. He answered my calls and text...s at all hours of the day, often at times when I honestly wouldn’t have expected anyone to respond. This all started with a frantic 1.5-hour consultation call that consisted of me freaking out while attempting to explain my the situation. This came after two other lawyers had given me 5 mins of their time or told me I needed to pay hundreds of dollars to even ask for advice. What truly sets him apart, though, is that he treated me like a person, not just another case. This situation came with a lot of stress, anxiety, and emotional struggles, especially with everything else I was dealing with in my personal life. There were multiple times when he took the time to talk me through things, calm me down, and genuinely check on how I was doing mentally and emotionally. He would sit and talk with me about my day and how I was feeling, even when it had nothing to do with my case. That kind of compassion is something you don’t find with every attorney. He never rushed me into making decisions, took the time to explain things, and made sure I felt comfortable with the direction we were going. Most importantly, he got me out of trouble completely, and I will always be grateful for that. If you need an attorney in his area of coverage, I would recommend him without hesitation. If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. You’re not just getting an attorney who knows what he’s doing; you’re getting someone who genuinely cares about the person behind the case. That made all the difference for me. I wasn’t going to add this but I will. After reading that one-star review, I have to wonder if that person even had an experience with this attorney at all. If I could give him the four stars that review is missing, I absolutely would. My experience with him was so amazing and I stand by that 100%. He went above and beyond for me, not only as an attorney but as a human being, and I will always appreciate everything he did for me. One negative review doesn’t change the experience I personally had or the respect I have for him and the way he handled my case.
