Great lawyer

My husband and I hired Mr.Padgett to fight a misdemeanor. He was very down to earth, helpful, informative, and was always reachable. His commitment showed the entire case. He cares about his clients and their needs, we will be using him again if needed in the future! Thanks Mr.Padgett!

FRA Dismiss

First I thank God that this Lawyer came to my rescue . I contacted several Lawyers to take my case , they had great reviews but wanted 10 to 15 thousand to take my case . After talking to Mr Padgett and discuss my case he said he would take it and was affordable . Base on my past background I was loo...king at 25 to life. He believe in me and not only got one case but two FRA dismiss . He will not sugarcoat if that's what you want . He will tell you how it is just trust me he know his job . I truly recommend Mr Padgett if you want someone on your team will fight for you . And get results

Mr. Padgett relentlessly fought for the fairest and best outcome for my son's criminal case. Thanking him , enough I truly feel as though I can't. Very straight forward no surprises. Best money ever spent. My dude for life.

Run , and after you run out of air, get someone to pick you up and run faster

Got a flyer in the mail, called him up and made a appointment. He will listen and seem like he is all into your story. Promise he can work out a dismissal and take care of your case. Well, weeks and days leading into the case, there was no phone calls nor returned calls I made to him.He did not show ...up to my plea hearing either. He has no paralegals. I looked at the court docket on the courts website and he has the cases stacked up thick. No wonder he cant call me. Well when he got me a offer from the DA, it seemed I could have worked that out on my own. Takes your money and leaves you with regrets.

Horrible experience.

I hired this lawyer to expunge a class b misdemeanor from my record back in 2011 and he didn't do anything but take my payments. There was no paperwork for me to sign. He did not call to inform of anything involving my case. I have yet to find a job due to this.
