ANOTHER CHANCE at LIFE

I am a 4th habitual drug offense offender from the west side of Michigan and have been out of the Saginaw area for over three years. Recently I was accused of a very serious crime here in Saginaw that I did not commit and I had no idea where to turn or what to do. My family contacted Mr. Melton who f...rom the very start, made me feel like a human being and listened to my side of the story. Mr. Melton took my case and was adamant about my innocence and was very decisive and clear on the best course of action. Mr. Melton was in constant communication with my family back home and was always available via email and text. His knowledge of the law is impressive and he communicates it back in a way that my family and I could comprehend so we could make the appropriate decisions. Mr. Melton was always on time and at every scheduled court appearance. He recommended us to a highly reputable polygraph examiner and with those results and a subsequent State polygraph; Mr. Melton was able to get the entire case dismissed before trial. Without John Melton, my life would basically be over. I highly recommend Mr. Melton and am happy to be his client. Sincerely, Ryan

JOHN MELTON IS A MAGICIAN

I endorse him without reservation, here is why: My beautiful daughter who has lived in Bay City, Michigan for 18 years was arrested for felony drunk driving 2nd offense in a period of (2) months in mid-February 2018. She passed both breathalyzer tests but failed the blood tests due to the court fi...nding of Adderall and a vitamin in her system. The drug Adderall was prescribed by her physician for ADHD. Adderall is prescribed for over 25 million men, woman, and children in the US for [Attention Deficit]. The vitamin purchased at a health-food store in Bay City to prevent drowsiness. My daughter was confined to the Bay City jail under a $150,000 bond and up to {5} years in prison. The first attorney I hired turned out to be totally incapable. and had a drinking problem. I hired John Melton in mid-April of this year, my daughter is now scheduled for release the first week in June 2018 as time served; case closed. John has a more than excellent working knowledge of the law and is respected by both prosecutors and judges. Also, his fees are quite reasonable, his staff most capable, and he quite readily handles his phone calls. I retired to Las Vegas several years ago, moving from California. I doubt I will ever have the occasion to meet Mr. Melton in person, but he will always be in my thoughts. John Melton, you are truly a MAGICIAN. Posted by Paul, a father...

Melton delivers exactly as he said.

Upon hiring John Melton to be my attorney I was completely confused with how everything works and came to him with a lot of questions , all in which he patiently answered and made sure were clear to not just me but my whole family ! He responded to every email text and call no matter the time and re...presented for me in court with great dignity and brought a calming clairity of understanding to me about my case before hand each time , I'm someone who has never been envolved with the law and was very thankful in my decision to hire Melton ! He does as he says and really delivered the best possible out come for me in my circumstances within his ability .I would recommend him to anyone in need of representation or better clarity with their case .

Restore my DRIVERS LICENSE FROM REVOLT STATUS

Mr Melton represented me at the Secretary of State for an Appeal Hearing. Mr Melton was very professional and indeed had prepared me for the requirements and questions from the hearing officer. I was completely satisfied and my license was modified to a restricted license. I can go back for anothe...r hearing in one year to have the restrictions modified/lifted. I will certainly hire Mr. Melton again to counsel and represent me.
