Posted by Ernest | August 15, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Child Support and Visitation Case

Roy was contacted and hired to make sure I was being well represented and guided in a case of child support and visitation. From the beginning, Roy was straight forward and open about cost and time. His communication was outstanding and he made it very clear when I was being charged and how I was bei...ng charged for his work, unlike my previous lawyer. He communicated via email, phone and sent mail to keep things clear and I was never confused about what was going on. His communication was beyond important to me because I live out of state. His guidance through the process was incredible and at times he was even motivating... motivating to get things done so I could get what I wanted, which was to see my kids. His encouragement, guidance and no-nonsense instruction was crucial to the success of my case and brought things to a very fair settlement. I cannot express my gratitude and satisfaction in words. I feel blessed to have had Roy in my corner. Roy is here to truly help people who want legit help and are willing to help themselves. He is passionate about what he is doing and I highly recommend him for his work as a lawyer and as a caring person.

Excellent Work

Roy did a great job in helping me get old issues expunged off my record. He worked with me to make sure the process was done quickly and correctly as to get my record cleaned up as fast as possible. Mr. Graham's timeliness with this went far beyond my expectations as he was always available when I ne...eded to speak with him. Overall great experience, and glad Roy was my lawyer.

Posted by Mike | July 20, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Traffic citation SNAFU

Roy was recommended by my company's Legal Shield service to assist with my wife's traffic citation (driving while suspended.) We had to pluck through a couple of confusing issues involving the documents sent by Enterprise Rental to the Indiana BMV. (My hat's also off to Enterprise in Columbus, IN fo...r working with us.) Roy's patience with us from the first meeting through the court hearings was phenomenal. He has a great working relationships with the local prosecutor's office and the judges. He was methodical and excellent in communicating with us. His guidance was helpful, again especially as there were numerous requests for documents from other companies. He kept in close communication with us in preparing for the hearings. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking an attorney in this area.

Laid back smooth attorney

Well to begin, Memorial evening started out as a crazy night of indulging too much fire water. Next morning after a very cold night in a small cell, I skipped their breakfast and called Roy based on his positive reviews. Everything I read about his work ethic and commitment to his clients is true. ... He immediately answered the phone. "What's the details I'm in a meeting" , but he still answered phone and he went to work on my case and did it very well. After all the worries, working with me through the pleas and court, All I can say is thank you very much for your hard work. A class act smooth attorney who really cares. Thanks again Roy

protective order

Roy Graham helped me with a protective order that I had filed, and he was extremely beneficial and knowledgeable of the case. He was very nice to me and attentive. He helped me not only make the right decision, but helped me find a solution that was financially attainable for me. Ultimately, I was in... a vulnerable situation at the time and Roy worked really hard to find a conclusion for me. If I ever need legal help in the future, which I hope I don't, but if I do I would go back to Roy. I definitely recommend him to others in the area.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Mr. Graham is fair to his clients and cares about the children involved in family matters. He also treats his opponents with respect which is refreshing the area of family law where so many practitioners seem to want to destroy the opposing party. Such tactics are rarely in the best interest of the children."

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Mr. Graham is an experienced, dedicated attorney. He is also an eclectic individual with a great deal of life experience outside the law. He has a savvy ability to read people, and in is non-legal life he has an artistic spirit, and is a naturally gifted pianist. I recommend him based on my observations of both his professional abilities and his personal dedication and integrity."
