Review Ashley Botard

Ashley Botard Review

Posted by Coi-Yonne AndersonWed May 01 2013

Ms. Botard did a fantastic job in handling the case with my son. She was always available to answer questions, kept us informed on court appearances, thoroughly explained anything that we didn't understand. I appreciated that she did not sugarcoat the situation. I would definitely use Ms Botard services again, if need be.

Smart and Easy to Work With

Posted by anonymousWed Apr 24 2013

I needed a lawyer to handle a criminal case for my son. This lawyer took her time with me. I was so worried about my child, but she made sure I was informed about the status of his case every step of the way. My son also liked her a lot. We were both pleased.

The smartest and most persistent attorney in the Courthouse. Either as a prosecutor or a defense attorney, Ashley is the best cross-examiner I have ever seen. Any client would be fortunate to have her on their side.

Ms. Botard is an outstanding attorney. She has a dedication to her clients that impresses other attorneys and clients. There are few lawyers that have such a devoted following and admiration from their clients.
