My only choice

Ms. Tucker was not just my best choice but she was my only choice after having screened half a dozen attorneys to represent me in court. And she turned out to be more than just a lawyer. She was more like a family lawyer throughout the entire process and kept me feel safe and sober. For that I than...k God for her.

Excellent service

The most important things I think of in a lawyer are knowledge of the law and just as important, being personal. She is both. She has treated me like a person and not just a case number.

Experience, Tenacity, Straightforward- impeccable!

I highly recommend Ms. Griffin Tucker as an advocate in your legal matters. She is extremely experienced, knowledgeable, tenacious, professional and most appropriately “straightforward.” She is frank with clients to let them know both the pros and cons of various approaches in mitigating your legal ...circumstances. Her reputation in Collin, Dallas, and Denton counties is impeccable.

Case for Dana

I would just like to thank Kimberley Griffin Tucker Law Office for the outstanding job she did in handling my case. I knew she had accomplished an outcome I thought was not even possible, but I learned just how incredible my outcome was after being around others in the same situation. They shared the... extent of what is being required from them and it really hit home how my case would have ended up so different and severe, had I hired a different attorney. Kimberly Tucker represent me, walked me through the process, and accomplished an incredible outcome on my behalf. I am so grateful. I would refer Kimberley Griffin Tucker Law Office to anyone who finds themselves in a situation needing a great attorney.

She knows her stuff and can destroy a police officer's testimony. She is brilliant, funny, and fearless. A criminal defendant cannot get a better advocate than Kimberly Tucker."

"Kimberly is one of the very few lawyers who knows how to make the proper usage of an ALR hearing in a client's DWI matter to both win the ALR hearing and obtain a winning edge in the DWI case. She always thoroughly prepares for each hearing and uses every procedural advantage. We have asked Kimberly to speak at an upcoming DWI seminar so that others will follow her fine example."
