Linda Marie Malek

Hiring Linda Malek of Malek Law Firm LLC was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. She is exceedingly intelligent, prudent, professional, personable, and tenacious. Her office representatives were communicative and attentive. Several months ago, I was charged with three felonies related to the po...ssession of a Schedule II narcotic (cocaine) in Northeast Ohio. These were serious charges and I thought my life would be over. Linda was highly recommended by a friend, and she came to my first court appearance on short notice. My bond was set, and I was immediately released, thanks to Linda’s efforts; the court officers told me they were very surprised that I was released immediately and on such a low bond. Linda got my misdemeanor dismissed right away. After several court appearances and hearings, Linda was able to get my third-degree felony dismissed. Somehow, she procured the best deal imaginable for me: ILC that would expunge all convictions after 12 months. It’s clear Linda thoroughly knows the criminal defense and court systems. I do not fully understand how she was able to provide me this best-case-scenario resolution, but I cannot recommend her services enough to anyone else who faces criminal charges.

Linda Malek and her team did an amazing job and i would recommend her to anyone. I was charged with a DUI and in a terrible position. Linda was easy to talk to and made me feel confident that she could get a good result. She was honest and communicated with me well. I was obviously intoxicated and di...d not have much hope that I would get a good plea deal. I was able to plea down and did not get an OVI. Also instead of my license being suspended for one year for refusal, I got my license back when I signed my plea deal. I got a better outcome then I could have imagined. Additionally, the courts were closed down because covid-19, but Linda still got me in front of the judge. She made it a virtual meeting and made signing made plea deal very easy. I can honestly say Linda is an exceptional attorney and is a great choice to represent you.

I had my first run in with the law and it was a big first charge (1st offense OVI). I was extremely nervous and anxious but Linda and her team made me feel like I stood a chance. Linda was very upfront and worked through my case, explaining every step of the way. I felt at ease, when I was able to te...xt her or anyone on her team with questions and concerns, at any time. After long negotiations, Linda was able to negotiate down to a physical control charge! I can not thank Linda enough!

If you are in search of a defense attorney, hire Linda Malek. 5 billion stars are not enough to accurately represent how wonderful she is from every focal point the in the entire horrifying legal process. My son was indicted on 17 counts: 14 felonies and 3 misdemeanors. Included in the counts... was an F2, F3s, F4s, 5 firearm charges each carrying a mandatory 3 year sentence to be served consecutively, sexual battery and sexual imposition, which required being on the registry for 20 years, and the misdemeanors. He was facing 58 years in prison. I had hired another attorney initially, and as the days passed, I had the worst feeling that I had made a terrible mistake. This attorney wasn't doing anything. My son felt that way, too, and so did his older brother. That's how I found Linda. My older son told me "You better dump ____ and hire Linda. She's a shark and she will get things done. My brother's screwed if you don't." So I called her that night near midnight and she called me right back. That impressed me. After speaking with her that first time, I knew I had to hire her. If I had to sell my soul, I was going to hire her. From the first conversation, Linda took control. I knew we would get the absolutely best outcome possible by hiring her. I would never have to say to myself "oh my god, why didn't I fire ___ and hire LInda?" I could relax in that area. She took the immense burden from me and put it on herself. I'll never forget the day I visited my son in jail and told him "Your new lawyer is coming to visit you tomorrow". He looked at me in surprise with hope in his face and said "My new lawyer?" I said "Yes, and I can't wait to hear what you think". He was SO HAPPY after he met with Linda the next day. He said he felt confident and had hope now and that his life wasn't over. He worships her and so do I. Linda is a shark, a barracuda. She's aggressive in all the right ways. That's what we needed. She told me once, "I'm like a dog with a bone with a case. I grab it and I won't let go." And she doesn't. Her staff is as incredibly supportive as she is. Karen and Joe were always there when I needed them. I have no idea how many hours behind the scenes Linda spent on case law, filing motions, and preparing my son's case. It had to be an immense amount. Linda is brilliant, strong, highly detailed oriented, forceful, honest, efficient, realistic, and her people skills are incredible. She spent many hours talking with me about the steps of the case, what was happening now and what would happen next, and reassuring me. I asked her to always tell me the truth, and she always did. She never sugarcoated anything. So when she told me positive, hopeful things, I could believe her. My son and I trust her completely. If she said something, it was true. Period. My son's case turned out the very best it could have turned out. He ended up pleading to two F3s. My son went from 17 charges to 2 charges. His sentence was fair. He received 18 months and is out now on judicial. Linda took charge of the judicial release process and guided my son through it, explaining each step, when he should file, and what he needed to accomplish in prison to be granted release. Also, my son had an arrest warrant from a DUI in Traffic that made no sense. LInda got that recalled in 10 minutes, so that worry is gone. LInda calls to see how my son and I are doing. Linda went to the trouble of finding and giving us the name of a church that has programs for felons, without us asking! Linda did not have to do that. The fact that she did tells us all how caring she is. Linda, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are so very grateful to you. Neither one of us would have survived without you. We will love you forever. From the

After interviewing dozens of attorneys, many sleepless night, the emotional stress my family and I had been going through watching my son go through all this, along with his emotional stress. I had come to meet Linda Malek and her team. Linda was the FIRST and ONLY attorney that had laid all the cards on the table. I hired her immediately!! Never once gave false hope or sugar coated the situation. Linda was upfront, honest, professional, up beat & always provided her thoughts. She walked with us every step of the way. She was always there to take a telephone call & answer questions. If any situation arose Linda and her team were on it A.S.A.P. I personally sat in the court room several times during these cases and was in awh with the wisdom she has for criminal law. The professionalism she shows under pressure, her quick wit about her in the court room. As I sat in the court room on sentencing day. I had listened to the judge run through the charges 1 by 1 and the amount of time he is to potentially serve for each one, I Felt like it was never going to end. When the judge finally finished listing all the charges it added up to almost 20 years. Doubt started to roll in fast. But Linda and her team swiftly took control of the situation. My sons charges were not only reduced, between the two counties he had received time served for the 7 months he was incarcerated and 18 months of probation. My son still has a long road ahead of him with counseling, rehab and therapy. But Thanks to Linda and her team my son can now start a new journey in his life to one day become the man I know he can be. Thank You Linda for everything you and your team has done to bring my family back together. When everything felt lost and hopeless you brought light to the end of the tunnel. To who is ever reading this stop living in the wonder and the what ifs. If you are looking for the right Criminal Attorney you need look no further!!! If you want the best representation possible use Linda Malek and her team. She is upfront, Fair, and honest. The results are still to unbelievable.
