Must Hire

My wife had hired another attorney for her second DUI w/refusal after getting pulled over for a speeding ticket. After a couple months it was clear that said attorney wasn't going to fight hard for her. After some discussion and sleepless nights we decided to fire her first attorney and seek new coun...sel. We did a lot of research and Linda Malek seemed to be the answer and this was an understatement. Not only was Linda reassuring and upbeat about what her thoughts were, she flat out said you aren't taking a deal, we will take this to trial if need be. Well there was never a need for that because at the suppression hearing Linda nailed it. I personally sat in the courtroom while the prosecution gave its case and then watched her rip it to shreds with facts not opinions. My wife's case was dismissed because Linda not only cited case law, but she backed up every argument with facts. I'll have to admit I was doubtful of the outcome, but I underestimated her sincere care of her cases and most of all her clients. Linda and her secretary always answered our phone calls along with our concerning questions. I would recommend Linda Malek to anyone I know. Just when your attorney is ready to throw in the towel, think twice and seek other options. Had we not done that, the outcome would have been very different. We will forever be grateful and now have some faith in the justice system when it seems impossible.

Best choice by far!

Words cannot begin to express the gratitude that I have for Linda Malek. I was facing my first DUI offense with an open container violation. I found her through Google and when I read her reviews, I knew I had to have her help me. Her reviews were beyond accurate. She worked so hard to get my DUI cha...rge reduced and the open container violation was dismissed. She was faced with some difficult evidence on my end and despite that she was able to get the best result for me. Linda will communicate with you through the whole process. She makes sure that you understand what is happening and all the possible outcomes. She is very honest and tells you things that are hard to hear, but she is genuine and caring. Ultimately, I am a better person after going through this experience and working through it with Linda’s support. If you are in need of someone in your corner that is willing to do whatever it takes, Linda is the lawyer for you!

The BEST lawyer there is

After getting in an accident that wasn't my fault totaling my vehicle but getting charged with an ovi, I hired Linda Malek to help battle my case. As this was my first conviction I had no idea what the necessary steps were, or even what the process was ahead of me. Linda went way above and beyond to ...fight my case and was able to get my case dropped from an ovi charge down to a reckless operation charge. Linda was more than worth every penny and would never want to hire another attorney other than Linda. Karen was also extremely helpful as I knew I could shoot her a text, call, or email and she would answer any questions I had through the process and always reminded me of any hearings. You will 1000% be more than satisfied with hiring Linda to handle your case.

Gave me my life back

Not enough can be said about Linda and her team. Her experience (especially in OVI cases) is something you don’t see very often. I had the privilege to have Mrs. Malek as my attorney over the last year over a wrongful charge. Due to some dumb decisions in my past, I was facing some pretty hefty charg...es. Linda and her team worked TIRELESSLY for me to make sure that I was in the best care possible. Karen was always there to remind me of anything I needed and any time I had questions they were always available to ease my mind. Linda is a force to be reckoned with during hearings, which we had to have a lot of due to the bizarre nature of my case. Mrs. Malek is the most competent attorney that I’ve ever been around. Words cannot describe how grateful I am that my case was in her hands. I can confidently say that the outcome of my case was the best I could have received as she got all charges dropped! I made the right decision choosing Linda and I also made a friend in the process.

miracle worker!!

Linda Malek is nothing short of a miracle worker! I highly recommend her to everyone that is facing any type of legal issue. I was facing my second dui within a 10 year time period and thought I was completely screwed. That was, until I contacted Linda. The entire time she made me feel stress free an...d confident about my case. She kept me informed the entire time and was always fighting for me! Linda was able to completely get my case dismissed and I couldn’t thank her enough! Five stars doesn’t do her justice. Absolutely amazing!!!
