Great Job

In April of 2016 I was arrested for a crime that I probably if convicted died in prison. After interviewing several lawyer. In the end I made the right choice. from the first day she created a plan. 13 months later it went to the grand jury. NO BILLED! Kim knew exactly what she was doing. Her team ha...d the experience that you will need when dealing with criminal justice system. i highly recommend her.

She is a bulldog in a court room highly respected in and out of court rooms.

She was my court appointed lawyer. It was my 3rd repeated offense for possession of controlled substance under a gram which is a state felony, and I was stressing they were enhancing it and I was going away for a few years. I was shocked when she came up to me and said I had two options 5 years defer...red adjudication probation and I said no just lock me up let me do my time because I know I can't behave for 5 years. Then she said the other option was 1244A which was a 90 day turn around in Tarrant county jail with no kind of probation or anything else but would result in having a felony conviction. So I took the 1244A because county time is 2 for 1 unless u make trusty then it's 3 for 1. I was out in 40 days because I was trusty for a week. I highly recommend her as a lawyer she will get you the very best she can and you will be happy with the results. Thanks Kim.

Shes a great lawyer and shes very helpful.

She's very understanding , and helpful she's not like any other lawyer she ACTUALLY CARES. And she gives you the best options for your case and what she can do. But DO NOT take her kindness as a weakness she's there to help you , but its up to you to do what she told you to do.

Amazing!

Kim was a God sent! I got arrested on a Sunday night and got out on Monday evening. I took Tuesday to research lawyers and hired her on Wednesday. By FRIDAY she had my charges dropped and I didn't have to go to trial. (felony and misdemeanor) Just talking with her on the phone I knew I had picked the... right lawyer. She managed to calm all my anxieties and worries about the situation that I had due to the fact I had never been arrested nor has anyone in my family. She is so knowledgable and with her past experience as a DA, she is unbeatable!! Worth every penny and I would recommend her to anyone. Although I don't plan on getting in any sort of legal trouble again, I will have her phone number saved and on hand for any sort of emergency. Thank you again Kim!!!

Felony Arrest

I was in the same car as a person with drugs and was arrested for possession. The first attorney I went to for help did not communicate with me and seemed to be waiting for me to be indicted which would have destroyed my career. I decided I wanted the best attorney in Tarrant County and found Kim on... the internet and after comparing several top attorneys chose her. That was one of the best decisions of my life. She presented my case to the grand jury and I was not indicted. Sometimes for justice to prevail it takes the right attorney. Kim Minick will do her best for you. She saved me a lot of stress and made me life better.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

".I had a client in FTW who was charged with possesion of bath salts. I called Kim to talk to the judge about her potential bond forfeiture. She went ahead and retrieved the discovery, looked up the chemical name in the code, called the lab tech, found out it was NOT illegal, and called the prosecutor. The client was about to be jailed again for not reporting on her bond, but after Kim's investigation, the prosecutor dismissed the case. Kim went way over and above on a case that she was not even hired on. It was very impressive. I can only imagine what she does for her own clients."
