Don’t settle for less

When up charged with a burglary of a habitation, felony 2, I turned to Perry Minton for legal counsel. He was very quick to obtain the charge info and officer notes and immediately shared his thoughts on how to facilitate the best defense for me. He was very transparent that dismissal was the stret...ch goal and that it would take significant work and many pieces would be required to align to make this happen. From our first meeting I knew he was professional, persistent, deliberate, genuine and knowledgeable of the law and also the DAs office as he had worked hard to build a strong working relationship so that he could better support his clients. Perry’s ability to know the pulse of a case including defendants, lawyers and judges helped with setting up a face to face with the victims, per DA approval, which eventually lead to a dismissal. I cannot thank him and his office enough for the support they provided me as well as my family and would highly recommend Perry for all criminal matters if you want to best shot at beating your case as he did for me. His worth and value he provides for his clients is far greater than the cost of his services.
