Criminal Defense 100%

The police only need probable cause to arrest. That is simple for them. To convict, the State needs proof beyond a reasonable doubt which is the highest burden of proof in the law.

Fantastic Service

Quinton was professional, knowledgable, compassionate and kind during one of the darkest times of my life. I will recommend him to ANYONE looking for effective, affordable legal representation. It's clear that the review below mine is TOTALLY false and that reviewer should be ashamed of himself.

Excellent Lawyer

Quinton is a ferocious champion for the rights of his clients. I would definitely recommend him as an attorney to anyone who is looking for an incredibly experienced and intelligent criminal defense.

Quinton Pelley

From the first moment I met Mr. Quinton Pelley, he made me feel at ease. I could really confide in him especially during this stressful time of need. Once I met with Quinton for a review of my case, he laid everything out on the table and took the time to explain everything in detail. Mr. Pelley's ... personality made you feel sure that the issues "were not the end of the world," and everything would be handled with care.I was always updated, whether via mail or phone call of court dates and information considering my case. Since I am a full time student, Quinton was very understanding and very flexible to scheduling our review dates. I would highly recommended Mr. Quinton Pelley to represent you in any legal issues you may have. He is someone that will relate to you on a personal level and defend you to the best of his ability. As for my case, he did a remarkable job and went above and beyond all my expectations. Mr. Pelley and his staff are very professional and cared about you as a person in this time of need. I wouldn't have to think twice about recommending Mr. Pelley to represent any of my family members or closest friends.I would highly advise those who are seeking law assistants to have Pelley law as their first choice.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
