I worked with Melinda briefly at a prior firm and found her preparation and detail to her cases to be top-notch. She is a hard worker and the type of attorney that will stay late until the job is done. She is worth every penny.

Brook Busbee, Criminal defense Attorney on May 15, 2014
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I picked Ms. Helsley to be my second chair on a recent criminal jury trial because the evidence and law was complex and I know her to be extremely thorough in her preparation and very sharp in defining and arguing complex legal issues. I respect her very much for the care and individual attention she gives to each client. If you hire her she will go the extra mile for you!

I had the pleasure of working with Melinda at a prior firm. She is dedicated to her clients and works diligently to find the best possible outcome for their legal problems. I have and will continue to refer clients in Dallas County to her.
