Curtis L. Fortinberry

This attorney was assigned to me as a public defender. Multiple attempts were made to contact this attorney, and he does NOT return phone calls! He only called me once to say he will not be available to show up in court! I will be complaining to the bar! My grand jury is coming up, and he doesn't ans...wer his phone! Horrible!

I came to Curtis with a multitude of charges, one being a felony, thinking that life as I knew it was over. I gave him a call and left a voicemail with my name, number, and brief description of why I was seeking his services. He called me back within 30m and had me give a quick synopsis of my situati...on and even discussed possible resolutions - we of course would have to look further into the case. But knowing that not all hope was lost was comforting nonetheless. He was flexible with his time, meeting me after normal office hours for my consultation and ultimately to sign our contractual agreement. He set clear expectations of what needed to be done on my end to progress the case in a positive direction and listened openly to the hopes of what my ideal outcome would be. Communication was open anytime I had questions and needed an explanation of what was going on. At the end of the day, I walked away with one conviction, the lesser of the three charges, and my felony charge dropped. He explained all my options for my conviction and how they could impact me in my future, financially , etc. I am very fortunate to have found a lawyer so willing to fight for an outcome I could live with and understood that these repercussions faced after a mistake truly effect people's lives. You will not be just another face he represents, you are a person with a life that he will fight his hardest to keep intact.

I sought out Curtis after in-depth research on retired law enforcement officers that were now defense lawyers. I am a former LEO, and was facing a charge stemming from a negative interaction with law enforcement. Based on Curtis' extensive experience as a retired Detective, I chose him to represent m...e. Curtis was not only affordable, but was passionate in his defense, as he is adamant on not allowing poor performance or negative actions by law enforcement to go unchecked, as he sees it as a personal insult to the decades his spent representing the badge. Not only was I found not guilty, but my trial was a landslide, with the verdict being returned within minutes. I would recommend Curtis to anyone looking for a defense attorney that breaks the stereotype of the sleazeball defense lawyer who is only after your money and the easiest settlement with the prosecutors.

The best lawyers of ever had Curtis and his assistant Nick are absolutely wonderful they helped me and more ways than I could ever thank them for I appreciate all the help and hard work they are definitely very good attorneys I would recommend them to anyone thank you Nick and thank you Curtis for al...l your help I'm very grateful for everything you guys have done for me

I hired Curtis for my divorce. He was exceptionally professional and didn't show any humor or concern to the other side, especially since my ex is a police officer for the same city Curtis once served; needless to say, Curtis was very well versed in the "politics" of things, so he did not bow to inti...midation. Curtis is a strong player and always on your team. He knows how to help you relax, but he keeps you focused on your case, and even yet, he handles every detail. He is ambitious for his client's goals and has a sharp eagle eye for what is best for his clients. Curtis is a proven invaluable asset; one would be blessed to have him as their attorney. I know I am!!
