Ambiguous sign-up terms and no follow up afterwards

I have to start this review by saying that I won my DUI case and having a lawyer was very convenient. However, this win is primarily because of MY innocence and MY persistence. When reaching out to Miranda and her employer, Suhre & Associates, I had never been in trouble with the law and was very ...nervous about receiving an unwarranted OVI ticket. After a consultation, there was a price mentioned ($3,500) which sounded like the full price of the services. I hired Miranda for her services and paid the invoice. A few months later, after an initial court hearing, there was another invoice sent for an additional $2,500 for the continuation of her services. This was not mentioned in our consultation, so naming a price to get hired and then bumping it up once the services started is shady and not transparent. I didn’t have any other option and luckily I had been saving up, so I emptied my savings account to pay the rest. Fast forward a couple of months, I was given a plea bargain that would require me to take some classes and have a designation on my license. Knowing my innocence, I refused the bargain and continued the case in court. A couple more months later, we showed up for the date of the case before it was supposed to go to a trial. Luckily it never got to a trial. That’s because of my persistence. The prosecutor offered another plea bargain on that final case day, to which Miranda STRONGLY suggested I take. Again, I knew my innocence, so I decided against accepting the bargain, which she informed me would push this case to a trial. I was all in to prove my innocence at this point. We entered the court room and after a brief conversation, the judge dismissed my case. After leaving the court room in awe, Miranda questioned, “what just happened?”. Me not going to jail was considered a win for Miranda, but me not getting in trouble at all is what I considered a win for the case. If I had accepted the plea bargain either of the two times, I’d have more to deal with, but thankfully, I was persistent in determining my innocence. After the case, I asked how to get my license back and how I might be able to get the $6,000 back that I spent on her services. She mentioned she’d help me through it but I was never assisted. I didn’t have a license for at least 8 months after the case, while living in Denver. I also asked how I might go about suing the officer/city for wrongfully convicting me of a crime and leaving me without a license for over a year, to which she mentioned there’s “a conflict of interest”. I’m happy that I was able to win this case, but I don’t believe Miranda or Suhre & Associates was the reason for it. Lack of transparency at the beginning, rough advice in the middle, and terrible follow-up at the end results in me giving a two-star review. If Joe Suhre or Miranda Holbrook could get me in touch with a lawyer that doesn’t have a conflict of interest with the city or the officer involved, and can help me get the $6,000 that I HAD to spend in order to prove my innocence, I’d absolutely consider amending this review.

Miranda Holbrook is an amazing professional attorney! She got my case dismissed

Miranda Holbrook is an amazing professional attorney! She got my case dismissed- She was always courteous as was her assistant Adrian. They were always timely with updates and responses via my case. The end outcome was my charge of theft was dismissed

Incredibly helpful

Miranda was so great and helpful throughout the entire process! I had a few roadblocks with different paperwork along the way, and she took care of everything. I was overwhelmed with all of the different proceedings and things I needed to do; she explained everything and was always available to answe...r questions or talk me through something. She's very knowledgeable and made me feel at ease throughout the case. I highly recommend her!

A tale of two law firms !

In 2007 I got a DUI in Kenton County. I paid my fees and fines and my license was suspended for 6 months. During that time I left the state and moved to DC where I didnt drive and used the great public transportation there. More recently I moved to Indianapolis and needed a drivers license. I hired a...nother firm, paid him twice as much and after two weeks he had done nothing to assist me with obtaining a "clearance letter" from KY. I hired Miranda and fired him . Two days later she had looked at my record, found out it was purged completely, aided me in obtaining the clearance letter that Indiana BMV needed before issuing me a new license and shortly after I passed the required tests and received my license. Im 73, being independent and able to drive again is vital to me-she treated me as if i was her only client. I'm a fan of Miranda's and recommend her without any reservations !

Miranda changed my mind about lawyers

Miranda Holbrook at Suhre & Associates represented me in what many would describe as a minor legal matter, but it was very important to me. Past experiences left me feeling like lawyers don't listen and don't care and don't respond, but Miranda changed my mind. She listened, she understood my concer...ns, and she cared about helping me. Most importantly, she kept me informed every step of the way and informed me of my options, which really helped relieve my anxiety. She is knowledgeable, professional, and thorough. I hope I never need a lawyer again, but if I do, it will be Miranda.
