Charges Dropped

Mallory was calm, methodical, and thorough as our lawyer. She worked diligently to discover, analyze, and utilize the facts surrounding our case. This ultimately led to the dismissal of the Felony charges that were based on false allegations. What a relief that Mallory was able to make sure justic...e was served!

Case Dismissed

I am very happy that we hired Mallory for our case. The team approach used by her and her staff helped in efficiency and costs. Being familiar with judges and prosecutors helped in putting forth a good strategy in getting our case dismissed. Mallory is skillful In depositions and getting the inf...ormation needed. Yes, the retainer may seem like a lot and we are not rich by any means but found a way and we are glad we did because Mallory was worth every penny. We will even get a nice refund. We always saved our questions for meetings with Mallory to use her time and our time wisely. Mallory always had good advice. Thank you to Mallory and her team! It is a relief to put this case behind us! I would definitely recommend her for a case that involves Title 9 and sexual assault.

Better call Mallory

She is a pro’s pro. Very communicative and kind. Reliable and knowledgeable. Quick and responsive! Great pricing for her work as well. I sure hope to not need legal services ever again, but if I do, she’s my first call!

Cyber Bullying Incident

Mallory Hughes did an excellent representing my child who was the victim of a cyber bullying incident. Some very serious and completely false statements were made on several social media platforms. Mallory provided excellent advice in order to combat the incident. Her support gave our family peace o...f mind that the issue was being handled appropriately and my child’s reputation was protected. Thank you Mallory and Berry Law !
