The best lawyer ever!!!

"Birc" Morledge is an incredible attorney. I owe my freedom to this man because he really cared. I was charged with 2 felonies and a couple misdemeanors for intent to distribute methamphetamine and other crimes in pulaski county, I had another case in Hazen with 4 misdemeanors for drug possession tha...t all happened within 1 month of eachother. I hired birc because of the reviews on this website, he was expensive but worth every penny. He handled my case very professionally, treated me like a human being and not just another criminal and he has a good relationship with a lot of judges and prosecutors in Arkansas which is very important I believe. I received a few years probation in the end and would HIGHLY recommend Birc to anyone in need of a fantastic attorney. He is a good man and always made me feel that I was also, despite my problems. This is the lawyer that you want, by far. I'm forever grateful to him.

If you want the best

We hired Birc because we needed a difference maker. He delivers the results or even superior than he says he will. Simply put he doesn’t just work for you, he wins for you! Four cases, four wins, no losses for family, friends and acquaintances. Doesn’t get better than that.

None

Birc was the worst lawyer I ever could’ve asked for. I decided to hire him for a case in 2015, thinking that he or anyone else could get me off (I was innocent) of the Petty crime of Disorderly conduct. I worked double shifts to pay him, and on the day of court he didn’t even show up to be there with... me. He convinced me to take a deal, even when the other side didn’t even have evidence, I paid court costs and STILL to this day the arrest is dinging my record and causing me to have Hastles to apply to other jobs. Contacted him to expunge the case and he took months, and still never got it done! I asked for a refund and it took more weeks before I received it! If you’re thinking of hiring him LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE OR GET A PUBLIC DEFENDER

Best Lawyer in Town

As a CDL Driver who was given an unjust speeding citation I set off to fight it in court so I went online and ask some friends about a good lawyer to represent me. After talking to four different lawyers I decided to elect Mr. Morledge to represent me, his reviews were good and I liked his expertise... and knowledge of the law and how he planned to present the case for a not guilty verdict. I strongly recommend Mr. Morledge as your Lawyer. He will work with you in every way, he would meet me after hours to acquire documentation and kept me informed every step of the way, either through phone calls or text. This gentleman presented an impeccable case to that Judge and made that DA look silly. With documentation, witnesses and a line of questioning to the Officer that was second to none. Very pleased with Mr. Morledge's services... Oh by the way I was found NOT GUILTY. Thank you Mr. Morledge for a great service.
