Best Criminal Defense!

Mike Gillespie is an outstanding attorney. I was referred to Mr. Gillespie after our family had retained a lawyer to represent my son in a tragic and extremely complicated case. We had made several payments, and basically received no service. We were confused legal novices, that trusted the wrong... lawyer. Mr. Gillespie met with us, and was professional and forthcoming. He answered all of our questions, and made us feel comfortable. He did not make any false promises, or lead us to believe that our chances were anything more than 50/50. We hired him immediately. Mike quickly filed the necessary motions, created an incredible defense, and took the case to trial. Our Not Guilty verdict is a testimony to his priceless experience , unparrelled knowledge of the law, and impeccable courtroom strategy. Our family will be eternally grateful to Attorney Gillespie for the 2nd chance my son received as a result of his persistance and dedication.
