Paul Charles Meyers

I made an unfortunate mistake that I was convinced would impact my future forever. Paul was absolutely outstanding! Extremely communicative, talented, and kind - throughout the entire process I felt as if I was in good hands. As stressful as the event was, all of my questions were answered and I felt... as if Paul lifted a huge burden from my shoulders. I never once felt judged; rather I was always treated with the upmost respect and understanding. A year after my case, Paul has gone above and beyond with expunging my record and making sure I was taken care of. I would recommend him a million times and more - and as much as Paul is a talented professional and absolutely lovely individual, I hope I never need to utilize his services again! Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me; I am eternally grateful for you!

Paul guided me through my case involving complex issues. Paul was ethical, knowledgeable, calm and pleasant to deal with. Paul was very efficient when it came to court proceedings. Paul displayed superb communication over the phone and email, which saved me a lot of time and money. He kept me informe...d and the process on track and focused on facilitation of a quick resolution of the case.

I was charged with Trafficking, Delivery and Possession and facing up to 30 years in prison after 97 lbs of cannabis was found in the trunk of my car. After over two years of legal wrangling, my fate was to be determined during a two day trial. The State of IL assigned the top AG of Grundy County to ...the trial to prosecute me. I knew that Paul Meyers had diligently worked for many hours going over the facts and details of my case. Two State Troopers testified against me and Paul Meyers meticulously exposed that they were lying and falsely testifying. After barely an hour of deliberations the jury found me not guilty. Paul Meyers is a Legend among Chicago area attorneys.

I was appointed Mr. Meyers by the public defenders office. I was arrested and my bond was set at $10,000 to walk. I was charged with a class 4 felony. Mr. Meyers has issues with communication in the courtroom and when speaking to clients from what I experienced. Aspects of the case that I pointed out... to him that would have proved my innocence were ignored by Mr. Meyers. My experience with Mr. Meyers was negative mostly because he made decisions without consulting me, he did everything by agreement when I specifically asked him not to. His conduct in the court room was not satisfactory based on his motions and refusal to challenge decisions I asked him to such as reconsideration. His answer was telling me to do an appeal, which I intend to do. We had a bench trial, and the states main witness lacked credibility and I pointed out about 8 vary big contradictions that we could have used to point out my innocence but Mr. Meyers disregarded. By definition he was ineffective in and out of the court room. He apears to be always on the verge of an anxiety attack and seems really nervous in the court room. It was almost as if the Judge didn't take him serious and that Mr. Meyers was off base with most of his motions and actions in court. These are the reasons I cannot recommend Mr. Meyers, I wish I would have had a way to contact and pay for a lawyer, before this conviction I had a clean record and was never in trouble with the law. I feel that if I had any reasonable representation in the court room I would not be in this situation. Mr. Meyers did not give me a reasonable or rational defense. He also refused to get me transcripts or copys of any documents. He takes weeks to return phone calls, he always says he was on Vacation. I complained to his Manager multiple times but it was too late.
