Judge Powell is Honest and Trustworthy

With Judge Powell, He gave me hope. I had feelings was doomed from the beginning due to a lengthy background. But once hiring Judge Powell, I could breathe again. He was honest and straightforward. And I’m so happy to find that he is trustworthy. CASE DISMISSED!!

Experience

As I was looking in my newborns eyes and rejoicinging in the news of my Dismissal.Thankful for people like Judge Powell! The true meaning of an Attorney, one who defends his people and fulfills his motives of proving the facts and understanding leverages. He is a Towson Tiger and I shared that connec...tion with him and even if we didn't the bond would have felt the same. He has an established reputation in the courts with Judges,Bailiffs, District Attorneys,and other lawyers. His office is conveniently located in the downtown area worked with me payment wise and trust me for anyone who knows that Legal fees can be very expensive. I am overly satisfied with his hard work to get my two felonies dismissed. I am now able to continue on with life and it's because of The Powell Law Firm!
