Posted by JL's biggest fan!! | February 03, 2017 | Hired Attorney

So professional with a very helpful calm demeanor...

We have never been so scared to deal with a situation before. We are Law abiding citizens that have never had a speeding ticket!! All I can say is mistakes happen and that as soon as we got on the phone she was able to cure our panic with her calm demeanor. JL answered every over the top question we ...had and listened to every possible bad scenario that we thought of. At one point she acted as our lawyer and even our therapist!! The fact that she kept our privacy speaks huge volume of her and her practice. We sure hope to never need her help again BUT if for some reason we do it's a little easier knowing that we have immediate help! Cant say enough about her. She was just great!! Thank YOU JL!!! And yes.... she had our case dismissed successfully!

Highly recommended

JL was extremely helpful every step of my case. She is quick to respond to any questions with a thorough explanation. Even though she is very busy I would still receive a response within a few minutes. I get the feeling that she gives all of her cases her full attention and never makes anyone feel li...ke their concerns or questions are insignificant. After presenting her argument for my case she was able to get my case dismissed. Her costs were well worth it and extremely fair, especially given the outcome. I couldn't recommend her more.

small town, BIG LAWYER!

JL Carpenter was referred to us. Living in a small town, privacy and confidentiality are very important. We met with JL in a personal and professional setting which made this expereince more comforting. JL is very professional, and was always available with our many questions and concerns. Patien...ts is a virtue, and waiting was a very humbling experience in a stressful situation. She was both confident and caring. I can honestly say she took care for our case with professionalism and we have been lucky to make a new friend! With sincer gratitude, Thank you for all of your effort with our case JL!

JL Was A Great Decision From 1248 Miles Away

I will try to make this short....I live 1248 miles from Houston. Unfortunately my daughter needed legal assistance. If convicted she would receive 10 years. I went to AVVO and chose 7 attorneys. I spoke to every one of them. I narrowed it down to 3. Out of the 3 I made the decision to go with JL. She... had the knowledge, confidence and an attitude of what I call a court room bulldog. The first time I met her she gave me a hug with encouraging words to follow. I felt my daughter would be properly represented and protected by JL. When I needed to get in touch with her I would send an email and within minutes she would respond. When I would call her office her team would help me with what I needed. If they couldn't JL would call within minutes or send a txt if she was in court. She also kept me informed when she was and was not available because of court trials. JL is VERY dependable. She was always on time and always kept me informed of what was going on with the case. When the case was adjudicated my daughter had to stay in Texas until I could get her probation transferred to my home state. That process could take up to 30 days. JL and her team found a safe place for her to live within a few hours. She also set up a call chain of people she knew for my daughter so she could have transportation and someone to talk to. JL assured me she would be safe so I could fly back home without any worries. Ultimately, her probation was transferred home and her case was recently given early termination of probation. A year early....woohoo! What more can I say, JL and her team is AWESOME! They went above and beyond all of my expectations!

Thank you so much, Pamela. It was an absolute pleasure to work for you and Krysten. We are excited to see what she does with her future. So glad we were able to prevent her from having any convictions on her criminal record and that she was not only able to get sober, but stay sober. How awesome is that! Cheers to 2017!
