Highly recommend for criminal defense.

I would recommend Mr. Hecker. He told from the beginning how my case would go with court procedures. As follow, he was right about the everything, he education me and told me it would take awhile for the my case finish out. I was very please on the outcome.

Liar Liar pants on fire!! A joke of a lawyer

This man lied and had my family and I pay him his 3500 dollars and kept resetting the case. He never has visited my brother in jail and does not return calls at all. He is all about the money period. He should be disbarred immediately or someone needs to file a action against him. He is in fact a jok...e. He tells you all this crappie in the beginning to get you but then in return once he gets your business he does nothing to help. For cases that should be cut and dry he does nothing but reset, reset, reset!!!!!!!! What an unhonorable lawyer, DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN PLEASE!!!!

TERRIBLE ATTORNEY

Paid this guy $2500 he promised to have the case dismissed or thrown out.....LIES! Once this guy gets your money he doesn't give a damn what happens he doesn't take the case to trial like he promises he takes the first offer you are given and walks away. He never kept in contact to let us know what w...as going on with the case or anything he hardly ever showed up to court he would either send someone or show up extremely late. PLEASE BE CAREFUL DO NOT HIRE THIS POOR EXCUSE OF A ATTORNEY YOU WILL GET THE SHORT END OF THE STICK.

Worst attorney ever!!

Don never told us what was going on with our case. He went and set our case to trial without asking us. We had to fire him in order to have a fighting chance in court.

doesnt honor contract worst attorney ever!!!

2500 to defend through trial... tried to force me to accept plea. 5 yrs later on day of trial. Requested judge to have me evaluated for competence. Never once answered calls never spoke to me about anything other than have i paid in full and take a plea. Spent 4000 to replace this worthless attorney.... another 1200 to get my own psychological assesment. Since the judge almost had me commit to a mental institution till i regained my competence.... 5 yrs took no plea so the next move was to take my rights. Glory be to God for helping me fight these unconstitutional acts against me. Also would give a shot out to Tristan Legrande attorney at law. A blessing in my eyes. Ty and God bless... Goliath of an opponent im up against. Hopefully justice prevails
