Mrs. A

Dennys, which I was always directed to call him ripped $3000 from my family while I was in County Jail. Needless to say he unfairly advised me I would have to "just accept" the first offer of 2 years TDCJ or I would do 40 years on a very small amount of a drug. My husband got scared and told me to ta...ke it, and my family was ripped in shreds by my transfer to a transfer unit since I had under 2 years left to serve and then my husband was "magically" removed from my visitors list as well as my son. I've been out for several years but the damage it did to my family and my mental health is unfathomable. Never thought a criminal defense attorney would just basically kanive someone of their money, but this was my first offense and very naive and now know why attorneys get paid big bucks, but they are also the biggest crooks. And he preached his spirituality. I didn't learn "jailhouse religion" I learned God is our Savior, protector, and forgives all. And upon release found a wonderful Church Ministry that I am very proud to be a part of. God Bless Mr Dennis Lessman, I bless not curse you. Thanks in Jesus's name!
