Extremely poor communication

Mr. Kittrell did not get in touch in the weeks prior to Court appearance. Never responded to prior efforts to find out what was what. Morning of Court date sent text that assistant would appear with me. Another postponement. Retainer paid. Stress and anxiety for lack of communication not worth t...he cost.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Joel and I represented co-defendants on a felony level matter. Joel was not only a zealous advocate for his client, but was assistive in my case as well. We were able to resolve the matters favorably for both our clients. He is a great lawyer and a great human being."

Criminal defense lawyer | Jun 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I'm a trademark attorney. I tried to help a friend who faced a criminal prosecution. Joel Kittrell saw me floundering in a court hearing and came to the rescue. He was courteous, explained the options to my friend, and was able to quickly find a solution with the prosecutor that was reasonable and effectively saved the day. Joel knows the procedures and he knows the people in the court system; they seem to respect his experience and know that he is a straight shooter. No theatrics, just solid advice on the best path to a resolution of a messy situation."
