This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Do not hire this man!

Check his suspensions and how many times he's gotten into trouble with the Lawyers Regulations Board! He doesn't contact clients back and he didn't file a post conviction relief for my sister. We have more obstacles to climb because he didn't do what a lawyer is supposed to do for a client. This man ...cannot do his job

Best lawyer I ever had

He worked with me .. he saved my life .. he knows the system so well and he used to be a DA .. stands up for you and will make an argument... also he hates the fact that they shackle a non violent offender like he murdered someone ..

Right on point!!

This man knows the law. He will fight for you tooth and nail. He will and has fought for my brother and my son when the state tried to violate their rights. This IS the man you want on your side. He won't let federal nor state prosecutors railroad you. He is a good man.

This man helped me return to life better then I was. Truly a great friend for anyone accused convicted and in need of help. Knowledgeable friendly and constantly on point with current law and ethics.
