Posted by Anthony | July 01, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

I wrote this on Google and thought I'd it share here

So I got into a serious criminal issue (it was technically considered a capital crime) that could have ruined my life. The statements and documented reports from officer was against me and a complete one-sided story.officer left out a lot of key components that could have helped my case (IT SHOUL...D HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED BECAUSE IT WAS EVEN ON VIDEO) but never put them in . The way the system is set up we all know it is flawed. All odds were stacked against me. Of course one of the "Key component" that could have been used in my court case the police officer document in my favor. My Key component that went completely against the victim's credibility to one of the major claims of distress. That was viciously used by the prosecutor in her closing statement. That we weren't allowed to use at trial. And in a flawed system of course they were allowed to bring that subject up about me though. Just to give an example of his struggle I gotta say never met a lawyer when it came time to get to business I thought actually cared. They usually only put on a front at first. He gots good word of mouth reputation so he's a busy man. And through stress I was in such a depressed State I didn't know what to think of him at first. When it comes time for business I seen that he's worth it!!! He told My Truth called out the facts in the documents and flaws in the story. All odds against us the officer, the system and with detrimental key points that He couldn't bring up. I've never knew my character could be defamed on trial like that while I couldn't go after someone else's. With no criminal background history while facing a capital crime. The truth came and the facts came out. I was found not guilty by a jury of my peers. They heard both sides of the story (at least as much as we were legally allowed to use) deliberated and cared. I honestly feel I got that verdict only cause Dennis Brewer did his job right. And his way of approaching the subject with this personality works well together (Someone once said "hindsight is 20/20". Even though this just very recently happened, I feel it may apply to this closing sentence)

Works hard for you!

Dennis was amazing in my divorce and child custody case. He was kind and understanding and took the time to do what he could for me. Highly recommend hiring him to work for you!

#1 in my eyes

Dennis is an amazing lawyer and I have had a few others for as well but I would never go to another again.. I've had many different things happen and he has always steared me in the right direction..

Excellent, experienced litigator; good communicator, compassionate.

We retained Dennis to defend our daughter in an OWI case. He and his team saw that the facts presented a very unusual defense. They thoroughly researched it, aggressively pursued it, and prepared my daughter and the case down to every last detail. Dennis' demeanor, despite his razor sharp skills, i...s very respectful, likable and engaging. It only took the jury 30 minutes of deliberation to come back with a verdict in my daughter's favor. I hope we never need him again, but I would not hesitate to call upon him again and highly recommend him. Further, he and his team made every effort to keep our costs down.

Kind, Caring and Effective!

Dennis was my attorney for a highly publicized criminal case. My case was front page news for many months. Dennis was kind, caring and would call me to see how I was handling everything. most importantly he was EFFECTIVE! I won my case and justice was correctly served. He did his due diligence , to...ok the time with me to understand my case and when it was time to go to trial, he rocked!
