Charles Lorin Fife

I was very thankful for Mr. Fife's willingness to represent me on short notice. When I was referred to him at an earlier stage, he was so kind as to give me a piece of free advice. Mr. Fife is personable and humorous but most importantly, he is one awesome knowledgeable Criminal Lawyer, with commandi...ng negotiation skills. He represented me and talked to the D.A. whereby reducing my charge to a much fairer "infraction". I could not have made it with such flying colors without his excellent involvement! I am forever grateful to have had Mr. Fife as my lawyer!!

I was in a very minor accident and I wanted to go with the public defender but my family wanted me to hire a lawyer. Never listen to your mother in law because I ended up with the worst case and a gigantic bill. Why spend the money but I wrote a check to keep the peace not that I got any. Anyway... what happened was I wasn't guilty but the officer made me look that way because there was an accident. The accident wasn't my fault but like I said the officer acted like it was my fault and I was drunk. I was drinking water all night my buddy ordered me a beer and it sat there. No evidence I did a single thing wrong so how hard can it be to prove I'm innocent? To beat this there was a ton of evidence but this lawyer didn't use it. A room full of people who saw me leave one beer on the table all night. So they're all in a bar a lot of them don't drink either and they're all good people. When I play pool I drink water and how about no bar tab to prove I wasn't drinking. Sure I had a beer, I had a beer on the table how does that make me a drunk. I was drinking water. The water kept getting lower and the beer stayed the same. The bar has video cameras and that video proves I was drinking water. How hard is it to show it to the judge. Make the jury watch a four hour movie of me drinking water. Well we lost and I still can't believe it. I hired a lawyer and he was either too busy too lazy too sure of himself or all of the above. We don't have to prove you're innocent, they have to prove you're guilty sounds like I am not going to spend time on your case now that your check is in my bank. All he had to do was get that video. So I'm in a bar, bars are legal to be in. Some people go there to play pool, being in a bar doen't mean you drink and it doesn't look bad it looks good when the video camera proves you're innocent. The public defender would have got that video because it's evidence and it's his job.
