Expungement

I had a few old charges that I wanted to get expunged so I called up Roy who was quick to take up the case. I got his name through Avvo, and found the other reviews here to be very accurate. It was a straightforward experience overall. Roy is great guy, who got everything sorted out very quickly. I c...ould not be happier with the speed and efficiency he was able to file my expungement. I've had a few other lawyers in the past and Roy was definitely one of the easiest to talk to and discuss my case with. He explained the entire process to me in great detail and clarified all the points that I had questions about in a way that was really easy to understand. He kept me up to date continually about where I stood at each stage of the process which went through successfully. In our initial conversation he told me that his rates were flexible based on your situation, and that he was fairly flexible on payment terms. But after he told me what his baseline rates were I just paid the full price, I found the cost was already incredibly reasonable from the get go. I would highly recommend Roy to other people looking to file for expungements.

Very helpful!

Hiring Mr. Graham was a very good decision for myself and for my case. He did an excellent job and guided me very professionally from the beginning to end. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing sound, professional legal council.

Quality never goes out of style

Roy is an outstanding person and attorney. My experience with him is good and we go back 20 yrs. Roy is very reasonable, and I can say from personal experience he has integrity. We have been to jury trial and recently prevented one. I feel he is one of the best.

Thank you

The reason that I am writing this review is two-fold. The first reason is simply to say thank you, and the second reason is to highly recommend Roy Graham as an attorney. As a school principal, I certainly understand the importance of professionalism and teamwork. Mr. Graham and I worked closely t...ogether for the duration of my case regarding my daughter’s college expenses and other relevant financials. My case is complicated on many levels, however Mr. Graham showed tremendous knowledge in all facets of family law. I was facing what could have been a devastating financial situation. With the help and expertise of Roy Graham, we were able to reach an agreement with my ex-wife that will literally save me thousands of dollars in the near future. Roy is always readily available for a phone conversation and/or an email reply. I strongly recommend Roy Graham as an attorney. He genuinely seems to care for his clients and is very reasonable regarding costs and fees.

Smart, focused assistance with difficult case

Roy is to the point, and he likes to unravel issues piece by piece. This is a great strategy, especially when you are dealing with a complex situation where every aspect has been triangulated. He is also very fair with fees; he keeps his overhead low by not renting fancy office space and passes o...n the savings to his clients. As a result, be prepared to meet in a public place, at least initially. We paid a modest retainer, followed by hourly billing. He often discounted things, or didn't charge us for some of the smaller items. Very transparent with billing--you know exactly how your funds are being spent, unlike some other attorneys I have worked with. I have only good things to say. I consulted with two other attorneys on this case, and despite their high reputations, they just were not understanding the whole picture.

"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."

"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."
