I was initially put on a payment plan it took me 4 weeks to pay but Mr. Harrelson started working immediately. I have a criminal history and I am really doing my best to never look back. He is very reassuring and has empathy for his his clients. Something like the All-State man. He always picks up t...he phone and let's you know whats going on. As far as attorneys go he's the one to go with.

Wonderful, Respectful Man

Mr. Harrelson was referred to us and I must say I am very appreciative to the person who referred us. Lloyd was always so calm , cool and collected which made me feel at ease. He explained things to us in the terms we could understand and comprehend. My son was looking at more time then he was even o...n probation for , which I found extremely confusing on a technical probation violation. Technical meaning he missed some appointments, and did not complete his assigned classes. He has not picked up any charges at all since he was given 5 years probation. Once they violated him they wanted to give him 15 years in prison. Mr. Harrelson turned the DA around with nothing but facts. My son was given 30 days in jail with time served and back on the same 5 years probation. Mr. Harrelson was concerned about not just getting him out of jail but his future. Getting jobs, living life as a normal citizen and helping him turn his life around all together. My family cannot thank him enough, he will forever be our family attorney. Thank you Lloyd!

Sorry Disappointing “Lawyer”

I do not recommend him, he says he’s going to do something & DON’T I Been with him for SEVEN MONTHS & he has yet to even get in a court for me! He’s quick to answer the phone when he know it’s his pay day, but goes missing every other day. I don’t supposed to be in jail & he’s not even fighting the w...ay he supposed to for me. Once again I don’t recommend him, if you reading this SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!

"A Lie travels half way around the world while the truth is putting its shoes on" Here is the truth. I was this client's 3rd Attorney. It's true that he was my client for almost 7 months, but why would he stay with me for 7 months? Here is why. This client had been to prison (no big deal), he accepted 10 years straight probation before he hired me. When he accepted this probation, the judge stated that he didn't want to see him in his court anymore. Subsequently when he hired me, he stated his previous 2 attorneys didn't attempt to get him a bond. I filed the Motion immediately. The client was charged with Arson less than a year after accepting probation for climbing through a doggie dog with a gas can threating to burn his girlfriends house down. He also had a felony Assault on a Peace Officer and a Felony Resisting Arrest. I got the Arson reduced to a Burglary so that his ex-girlfriend could sign an affidavit. The Felony Assault was dismissed and the Felony Resisting was reduced to a Misdemeanor. He was being offered 15 years in prison and so far I had talked them down to five. He stated he didn't hire me to fight his cases, he only hired me to get him a bond and he would take the Burglary charge to trial. I asked, how do we explain the gas, matches and the fire. He got angry, fired me and had someone post this review because he is in jail. I talked to the judge 5 different times and even sent another attorney from my firm to talk to the judge. The Judge told everyone that would listen that he would NOT give this client a bond. His mother, brother and girlfriend begged me to remain on his cases due to the work I had put in, but due to posting negative reviews for the world to see and other actions attempting to defame me, I refused to remain his attorney. I also refunded some his money so that he could hire someone else but no good deed goes unpunished.
