He Got my case dismissed!!!

Judge Powell has been amazing. Has made sure to keep me updated and prepare me for what to expect. His attention to detail is exceptional. I have never been in a situation to have a felony and I honestly was terrified, but Judge Powell made sure to take care of the case and showed so much support and... reassurance. His assistant is amazing also she has answered any questions I have and judge Powell and his assistant go above and beyond. The most exciting news is that today he got my felony charge DISMISSED!!!!! He 100% stands by his word and works miracles. I can’t thank him enough for everything he has done for me, he's Amazing
