Linda Marie Malek

When I first walked into Linda's office, I was not only facing jail time, but was at risk of losing primary custody of my children for said "offense". The issue, although something viewed as being very minor outside of court, was being made into something very serious in court. The lawyers I had be...fore not only helped get me into the situation by not properly representing me, but they also did not guide me or give me the correct advice that would have avoided this situation altogether. From the very beginning of hiring Linda, she was extremely direct and told me exactly what needed to be done. She broke down all of the mistakes made in the previous situation and how we were going to move forward to get this rectified. She stepped into the courtroom and truly saved me from this situation. I walked in thinking I could go to jail and lose everything to leaving the courtroom to go back to my normal, everyday life like nothing happened. She is extremely well-respected inside and outside of the courtroom for the fact that she is well-versed in law and very straight forward and honest. She is available at all times when you need advice or run into an issue and will help you just because. It is definitely not just about the money with her, like I have found with previous lawyers. I wasted tens of thousands on legal fees and got no where before finding her. She actually cares and wants the best for people, whether you want to hear her advice or not, she knows what she is talking about and will help get you to where you want and need to be. I hope to never be in this situation ever again, but if I or any friend/family member ever is, we won't be calling anyone but Linda as long as she is around. She is the REAL deal and I am so grateful for all of her help!

I was dealing with a very difficult case and was fearing the worst. Linda assured me I would be fine and I didn’t need to worry. She left no stone unturned while looking into my case. The result was better than I could have imagined and I came out on top with two of my charges dropped. She truly c...ares about her clients and is not afraid to fight for them. She is very professional and her staff is amazing. I would recommend her to anyone in need or anyone who thinks all hope is lost. With Linda there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

I hired Linda when I was charged with a high tier DUI (1st offense). I was horrified and needed someone that could effectively help me with this. I consulted with another attorney and after speaking with Linda it was clear she knew her stuff and would fight hard for me. I had submitted to the alco...hol test and blood draw. Through her offices' work and the motions she wrote, she was able to get a reduction to a low tier with low level penalties. What a great job she did for me. I was highly recommend her to others. Thanks again Linda and her assistant Karen!

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.
