Amazing advocate on my behalf

Lindsay was always available to talk with me about my case. She was patient with my complete lack of understanding of the justice system and helped me understand the mass amounts of legal jargon. Most importantly Lindsay got my case dismissed before the preliminary court appearance! I was facing a ...misdemeanor A...with possible jail time and the loss of other freedoms. I attribute my success to her understanding of the criminal justice system from both sides of the fence; seeing as she was once a prosecuting attorney and is now working as a defense attorney. It boils down to her experience, working relationships, and confidence. At no time did she ever make me feel guilty or not worth her time. I valued her candid responses to my questions. I hear some attorneys do little to zero work on the behalf of their client...Lindsay poured all her effort into my case as if it were her only case. Anything happens again, she will be the first person I call to represent me to save my assteroids!

Saved my life

I was a police officer who was involved in an officer involved shooting and unjustly charged with a crime. I could write about how good of a lawyer Lindsay is for pages so I'll keep it straight and to the point. Lindsay was there for me from the moment I was in the hospital to being charged, to win...ning in the courtroom at the prelim and still to this day she is there for me. Yes you heard that right we won at the prelim and anyone who has been around any court knows that is almost impossible. Now I can't promise you will become great friend like we have but I can promise she will put her heart and soul into every case the same way she did with mine. You truly would be doing yourself a disservice by not having Lindsay Jarvis as your attorney.

Professional and ethical

I had a great experience with Lindsay. she is the best Attorney around. Lindsay has fought for me in more than one setting. Fighting the legal fight in the courts to fighting for me in the media and with my employer she has defended my reputation. After being falsely accused of a crime by a police de...partment that was wrought with corruption and personal agendas Lindsay stepped up and defended me with tenacity and vigor. The best part of working with Lindsay is she truly cares.She is not working for the paycheck. She is working for the ethical and moral reasons that I expected.

Lindsay Jarvis works magic in the court room!

After making several poor decisions trying to deal with some underlying emotional pain I was going through I suddenly found myself at the lowest point I had Ever been in my life. It felt like almost overnight .....I had lost my nursing license (being an RN was my passion, I loved caring for people), ...my 17 year marriage was most likely headed for a divorce and I didn't know what would happen with custody of my precious children. After speaking to Lindsay on the phone for the first time I was reassured that "we" would get through this....And amazingly we did. With Lindsay, I always walked calmly into the court rooms. I felt I had a friend by my side, someone who truly cared. She worked miracles for me. We had this ongoing joke that there must be "magic" following us, because every time we left court the outcome was so much better than we even had hoped for. I knew it was her. She just has a way with people; polite, yet very professional. Within a year I was able to get my life back. I am back in the life of my kids almost full time, I have my career back and am currently working as an RN again and could not be happier. I would recommend Lindsay Jarvis to anyone. I see her as an angel.

Dedicated and Professional Lawyer

My experience with Ms. Jarvis spanned the course of a year in a very stressful criminal case. During that time she maintained regular, frequent contact with me where she gave me very detailed information regarding my case. She was sensitive to my needs and spent a significant amount of time answeri...ng my questions and addressing my concerns. It was easy to tell that she cares for her clients as human beings and not just cases to process. Ms. Jarvis has a remarkable knowledge of criminal law and procedure which ended up benefiting me greatly. She is very well respected by all of her legal colleagues. I would recommend her services without reservation. If any one of my loved ones needs an attorney, she will be the one I recommend!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
