Definitely the best

What a great lawyer. When we first went to Linda, she was very open and honest, sat and talked with us and right from the beginning my husband and I were very comfortable with her. She didn’t know us from Adam, but talked with us like we were family. Assured us she would do anything in her power to g...et the charges lowered as much as possible. We hired her and was true to her word. She and her staff were available at any hour to talk and always returned our calls as soon as she was able. Her and her staff got the charges down to the minimum possible and we couldn’t be happier. We do and will continue to recommend the Malek Law Firm.

Best lawyer - best decision to hire her

Linda is a rare lawyer - brilliant, good, professional - and incredibly effective. I found Linda after getting pulled over for a high-tier OVI with an extremely high BAC. She got it reduced to the low tier with the lowest penalties. Linda asked all relevant questions, hunted down all facts, and fough...t for me. She got me what everyone called, "the most lenient" result they had seen out of the court. Linda knows what she is doing 100%. She is worth her weight in gold. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. Her staff was superb also. I had never had any history of anything like this, and she walked me through the process with knowledge and respect. Right before the final step in my case, I got cited again in a different municipality because of a documentation error I made unknowningly. Linda had to step in and negotiate that additional situation immediately to be able to preserve the initial plea. Linda made it happen. She is a miracle worker. I work with lawyers in other professional contexts every day - Linda is among the most brilliant and effective out there. Choosing her was the best decision I could have made at one of the hardest times of my life.

Phenomenal Lawyer!

I can not stress enough how happy I am with the attention and service I received from Linda. If I could give 10 stars I would. I was reluctant to hire a lawyer since I was a first time offender and because of the circumstances of my arrest, but without Linda, I would have done jail time. From the fir...st conversation with her I knew I was in good hands and that she was going to do everything in her power to get me the best deal possible. She did just that. The outcome of my case was far better than I ever could have imagined and she fought hard for me until the very end. She does an outstanding job researching every detail of your case and never keeps you in the dark during the process. Her connections with people and relationships with prosecutors and judges really amazed me and made me feel comfortable in the courtroom. She gave me so much hope during one of the darkest months of my life, and she was there every time I called her with questions or concerns. Do not hesitate to hire her, it was the best decision I could have made.

Malek Team Gets the Job Done

Atty. Malek and her team went above and beyond to help me in my case When I say above and beyond, it all started when i picked the wrong Attorney to represent me. I had no prior issues with anything criminal. I picked the wrong Attorney after I had given my statement to police about an allegations a...gainst me from out of state. Due to this attorney not giving his full attention to me and my case. I ended up in jail. Attorney Malek and her team After being hired had me out of Jail within 24 hours. She made sure I obtained the leading Polygraph expert to make sure I was able to provide thes polygraphs to Prosection.( the previous Attorney literally did none of this and left me to sit and jail because he was shopping at the grocery store. )She then helped me In Ohio and out of State with 1 1st degree felony rape charges and 1 1st degree felony sexual assault and 2 misdemeanor battery charges. Her and her teams’ extensive work and due diligence to my case and for these allegiation’s during pre trial and trial made sure I didnt have to spend 19 years in jail for crime I didnt commit. She and her team worked with me in every way for nearly 2 years during preparation and for 10 days of pre trial and trial out of State. If it wasnt for the Malek Legal Team prompt responses to every question, the large amounts of work preparing my case before trial, work done with motions, bonds,, and 10 days of pre trial and trial I would not be able to write this review, I would be sitting in out of State in jail for 19 years due to every baseless charge due to baseless allegiations.

A True Blessing

Saying my expectations were exceeded would be an understatement. A few months ago, I found myself in a high stress legal situation and was feeling helpless. A mutual friend of mine that had recently finished up with a similar case, happily sent her my way. He could not say enough good things about Ms.... Linda Malik, and had me convinced that she was without a doubt the best option for me. I was given Miss Malik’s phone number and called her that evening. When the conversation began, My stress level and anxiety were through the roof as I frantically tried to explain the situation to her. She was a blessing in disguise because within about 5 to 10 minutes of our initial conversation, she had me feeling good about the situation and the fact that we could overcome it together. I believe the difference between Linda and other lawyers is that Linda cares about each case personally and treats her clients like family rather than people in business together. The court case ended up being about a nine month process From start to finish, and Miss Malik would call me frequently and update me about the situation and how to proceed. As a busy college student with a hectic schedule, the last thing I needed to worry about was a legal case, and Miss Malik was the reason I could stay levelheaded. We came out on the winning side of the case and the relief was overwhelming. I am forever grateful for Linda and her firm, And would very highly recommend her to anyone in a tight legal situation. Thank you again to Ms Linda Malek and her team.
