A Dedicated Attorney Who Truly Cares

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Mr. Upshaw and the exceptional service he provided to me and my family. After my husband was sentenced to federal prison for a major drug crime, I hired Mr. Upshaw to help with reducing his sentence. From the moment we retained him, he was always availabl...e to meet with me and provide guidance. Not only is he an incredibly skilled attorney, but he is also a compassionate person who genuinely cares about his clients. Thanks to his hard work, my husband’s sentence was reduced. Mr. Upshaw will fight for you, provide honest advice, and be there when you need him most.

This is the lawyer you want on your team!

Mr. Upshaw is an amazing attorney. He got my husband's fed time down to 2 1/2 years when it could have been 10. He is very knowledgeable of the federal court system. Returned all of my calls, and answered our questions in a timely manner. Was patient with our lack of knowledge in the fed system repe...atedly going over things with us. I would definitely recommend. Very happy with the outcome as that was the lowest possible time my husband could get. Thank you Mr. Upshaw!

Upshaw has been my husband and I lawyer for a while now, and he has been the absolute best. Myself and my mother in law went through a phase where we were not as trusting as we should have been. And he didn't get mad, he was patient, and he got up there and did a damn good job. I won't go to trial wi...th any other lawyer. He got us a NOT GUILTY VERDICT!!!!!!!!!!! And even tho my husband was innocent, the deck was still stacked against us. He really saved our lives. And it was a Federal Trial. Y'all he beat the feds he a beast. Retain him you won't be disappointed.

Highly recommended

I had the pleasure of consulting with Mr Upshaw over the course of the past year regaurding a Federal drug case. During the course of the entire case and after I've found him to be professional, straight forward, honest, and he spoke in plain english (which is rare for an attorney these days). Mr U...pshaw returned my every call promptly if he was ever unavailable and was able to address any of my concerns completely and sincerely. I would highly recommend Mr Geoffrey Upshaw.
