Marc Chavez, Criminal defense Attorney on Jan 7, 2021
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I endorse this lawyer. I have known Mr. Puryear for the duration of his career. I have worked on cases with him and against him and I know him to be a dedicated and skilled trial attorney. He knows the law and knows how to get great results in the courtroom. His clients are lucky to have him by their side. His litigation skills are definitely a benefit to his clients.

You'll have a hard time finding an attorney with a wider range of criminal law experience than Geoffrey. From simple DWIs to complex felonies, from fine-only offenses to those carrying a possible life sentence, he can handle any criminal matter a client may be facing. Unlike the vast majority of defense attorneys, he possesses a unique ability to analyze a case from the perspective of a prosecutor, a defense attorney, and also a judge, because he's been all three. He also understands that being an effective defense attorney is more than just knowledge of the law and a powerful courtroom presence, it also requires thoughful consideration of each client's situation and tailoring his representation to address individual needs. I wholeheartedly endorse Geoffrey and would recommend him to anyone currently entagled in the legal system.
