Great experience from this law firm

I enjoyed working with this law firm on my cases that I thought I was hopeless on. They helped me with everything to get the answers and the final decision I was hoping for in my cases. I felt safe, because of the the amount of stress was taken off my shoulders as we took hold of both of my cases. I ...will refer anyone I know that needs help fighting an unfair case. Thank you Tim Powers.

Professional

Tim Powers explained what to expect and I felt very confident the best possible outcome would be achieved. I had no experience in this realm but with his explaination and the helpfulness of his staff I was able to trust it would be o.k. If you are looking for an attorney you can trust, you need Tim P...owers on your side. Thanks!

exceptional lawyer

Tim Powers is an exceptional lawyer. He is speaking to me in a medication conveyance case in Denton County. .He is most proficient and amazingly solid. He has been tried and true and reliable. Despite the fact that I live out of state, Mr. Forces and his office have effectively kept me up to speed on... the advancement of my case. I began being extremely eager and needed quick conclusion. Tim let me know that the better results take quite a while and I should have been persistent. He was completely right. It assumed control more than 4 months to have the medications tried by the state lab and once the outcomes were known my lawyer went in "fight mode." The outcomes couldn't have been something more. I was educated for the current week the case had been released. I was confronting up to 20 years in jail and couldn't be more eased. Much obliged to you.

lawful framework

I truly admire all that Tim Powers and his law office accomplished for me with my medication case. I've listened to some genuine ghastliness stories about the absence of representation by a few lawyers - particularly in Denton County. I'm so extremely lucky that my sibling conveyed me to his firm. Th...at the representation hey gave me was superb. I understand that the admiration that the D.A. has for Tim and his office is the purpose behind the mercy that I was given. He likewise took the time to disclose everything to me notwithstanding my newness to the lawful framework. It is irregular to me for somebody I've known for such a brief while to demonstrate to me the graciousness that Tim Powers and the staff at his office demonstrated to me. My case is presently shut, I have no criminal record and everything is clear. In any case, I will perpetually be appreciative that Tim contended energetically to get me a decent result that would not torment me until the end of time.

terrible representation

The reviews about this attorney mishandling DUI cases are true. Make sure you do your research and do not sign a contract? I know facts about my case & I initially spoke to Mr. Powers then all of a sudden months later my cases was handled by one of his staff members grace in which she had my case con...fused with another case, incorrect facts gave me the wrong court date & didn't even know my name smh. On top of that instead of reviewing the facts of my DUI case this office advised me that the DA did not "like" the way that I spoke to the officer that arrested me even though I am clearly innocent of this crime I was charged smh? Mr. Powers is a former prosecuter so naturally he's going to believe that your are guilty until proven innocent. Not to mention the first staff member my case had been handled to quite the firm b/c of punishments that Mr. Powers felt like his clients deserved. Be very careful, extremely careful. Your first time speaking with Mr. Powers might be your last. After you have paid them then everything doesn't matter anymore. If your case is given to Grace you better run & run away fast & never look back!!
