Works swiftly

He is topnotch, courteous, professional and quick. His staff Silvia and Shannon are excellent. I had two charges and he got them both dismissed in about 13 days. He asked for 30. He didn't promise the world but he injected confidence to my situation. My family and I are most thankful. Another note on...ce he found out I was a veteran he immediately offered a discount for his work. Thank you sir, I would recommend Ken

Glad I used Doug!

Doug is a great attorney who cares about his clients. His office was able to handle my case with a very favorable outcome. His staff is professional and they deserve high praise as well. I highly recommend him.

IF YOU ARE FEELING SICKENING FEAR, READ THIS:

I was recently visiting my son from out of state when he was charged with a Class 1 Felony, carrying a possible life sentence. Not knowing anyone in Montgomery County, I turned to the Internet. There I found DOUGLAS ATKINSON. I left a voicemail on Sunday morning, had a call back on Sunday afternoo...n, and an appointment on Monday. I met with Doug at 5:00 PM, and he was at the jail advising my son by 7:00 PM that evening. Doug managed to have bail reduced to a manageable level and we settled in for the terrifying fight, feeling we were in very capable hands. Doug was determined and totally immersed in my son's case. To make this short, Doug had the CLASS 1 FELONY DISMISSED within 2.5 months. Just like that, our nightmare was over. Doug is compassionate, caring, and tough as nails. He stayed in constant communication with my son. If you have a life changing legal problem, you NEED Doug Atkinson. My family and I will forever be thankful to Doug and his amazing staff. CM

If you want results, call Doug

I was facing a DWI 3rd felony charge & I was looking for a good lawyer for representation. I had heard a lot of good things about Doug from reading the online reviews. I don't want to get into too many details on my case, but Doug was a huge help. He answered all my questions in a timely manner and w...as very professional. We watched the video together & he was able to get a dismissal due to an unlawful stop. Also, the Officer that pulled me over, never showed up to the ALR Hearing, so my license was never suspended. I honestly don't know if I could have received the same results if I had hired a different Lawyer. Montgomery County is terrible about DWI's. Doug is an experienced Lawyer, that will do a fair amount of due diligence to find any breaks in the case. If you want the best lawyer in MOCO, call Doug!

Absolutely Amazing

This man, Douglas Atkinson, is supernatural. He is guided by God, and there is no doubt about it. My case, was the most terrifying situation I have ever encountered in my life. I was charged with a first degree felony, Aggravated Assault on a Public Servant. I was involved in a 7-hour SWAT standoff. ...That’s right. The ins and outs of the case were so complicated. Doug was straight up with me from Day 1, told me how it was, and that he wanted this case dismissed. He was always very compassionate, and very understanding about the stress I was going through. He always made himself available to me, and it was obvious that he truly cared about what happened to me. Doug went in on my first court date, and asked for dismissal. I was absolutely shocked. They didn’t dismiss my case on my first court date, but a month later, Doug obtained the dismissal. The case was gone, my entire life returned to me. I have never seen anything, or heard of anything, like this in my life. Blessed by God, is this human being. If you find yourself in a legal situation that can drastically change your life, there is no other attorney that can even come close in terms of determination than this man. He will fight for you like no other! I would never, ever recommend any attorney other than Douglas Atkinson. I literally owe my entire life to him, and he will always, always be in my family’s prayers.
