Crim_,Misc_Imp,_Pub_Svc<30K,

He got my felony Crim_Misc_Imp_Pub_Svc<30K droppeddown to a class C misdemeanor Disorderly Conduct. I got 3 months deferred probation no reporting and pay $200.00 restitution. Mr.Haslam is really good he will get all evidence that there is to get,that means even if you have police body cams he makes ...sure he got everything.

BEST ATTORNEY EVER

Don Haslam attacks your case like it's life and death. He follows through every step of the way. I never worried whether he was working on my case. He kept me informed all the way. He even followed up after the case was closed to make sure everything was going as expected. Bottom line, he won my... case and if you want to win, Don Haslam is your man.

Torres Review

You are never prepared to be in a law suit situation where your character is at stake. Having Mr. Haslam on my side was a God-send. His professionalism and gentle spirit were extremely comforting and reassuring during this extremely stressful time. He was knowledgeable and in control of the facts ...and I believe he represented me well. As Mr. Haslam worked to prepare family and friends who would testify in my behalf, they too had nothing but positive comments about him. I would recommend Mr. Haslam highly for his integrity and professionalism.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
