Craig Gillespie

Our case was very complicated as it involved several charges in the juvenile court and a DUI. Craig did a very good job working with the prosecutor to minimize the juvenile issues. The interaction of the juvenile court decisions and the ADOT administrative law was more complicated than we anticipat...ed. Overall, Craig understands the juvenile court system and how to work with the prosecutors. Craig was easy to work with and he and his partner Dave Roscoe were responsive to our questions and concerns.

Above and Beyond our Expectations

Dear Craig, Your firm stepped in on short notice and helped with my husband’s case immediately. We contacted him via email on Saturday, and Monday morning we had a phone call, with a face-to-face consultation on Tuesday. My husband was accused of a felony offense that carried a minimum 2 years of i...ncarceration if found guilty. The staff allowed us to meet with them immediately to understand the available options and each phase of the process. The staff was knowledgeable and kept us well informed regarding what we could expect at each court appearance. Your guidance and advice were priceless. We preferred face-to-face conversations where we felt comfortable asking many questions as a couple, and they accommodated us quickly each time we called with additional questions, versus just answering over the phone. I loved that you charged a flat fee to handle our case from beginning to end, reducing our stress over billable hours every time we had a question. It was a huge relief to realize that you would work hard to help achieve the best outcome possible for our case. The case resulted in community service and unsupervised probation, and will be reduced to a misdemeanor versus the original felony charge. Your staff was respectful, helpful, and responsive. We never felt rushed and are extremely satisfied with the results. I was truly amazed when you made a house call to help us out. That was above and beyond our expectations and made it so much easier for us. Thank you for taking the time to understand our situation fully and caring enough to achieve this result for us. We are extremely grateful for all of your help. I would recommend your firm for any matter you handle. A.N. Phoenix, Arizona

The best representation you can have

I want to wholeheartedly recommend the Gillespie Law firm for DUI and related cases in Phoenix metro area. I was on business in Scottsdale area and arrested for DUI. Dave and Craig basically calmed me down, explained, and reassured me that everything was going to be alright. And you know what it w...as alright- my DUI case was dropped down to a traffic violation. I will always be thankful for their help and advice.

Felony Theft

After a family member was charged with Theft, I contacted Mr. Gillespie because of his track record, professionalism and support system he has in place. I expected to hear from him in a day or two and in fact it was a matter of hour(s) during a very busy holiday season we connected. We met with him ...and gave him the specifics of our situation. Having not been in this situation in the past, I was worried and confused about all of the next steps. He took the time to explain the entire process, made sure we understood the timelines, set expectations and followed up with information we needed. The emotional stress was cut to a minimum because of his articulate methods. Our case was handled to our extreme satisfaction as the charge resulted in a misdemeanor tresspassing charge. I have since been in touch with him regarding other legal advice and received referrals in which I am grateful for. Mr. Gillespie is a talented Attorney that I recommend to anyone that needs legal assistance in a crisis situation.

Outstanding representation!

Upon being contacted by a police department detective for a telephone interview relative to a criminal investigation, I decided to immediately seek legal representation. I vetted several highly-experienced Phoenix attorneys who received very favorable reviews on an array of online rating sites. I... was immediately impressed with Craig Gillespie during our initial telephone conversation and even more so when I met him in person at his office. Not only did Mr. Gillespie put me at complete ease, he projected a sense of quiet strength and confidence that spoke volumes. He is an outstanding listener who has the unique gift to be able to immediately discern client angst, articulate empathy and swiftly move to an understanding of the facts and move to a plan. Recognizing my innocence from the beginning, Craig moved through the process to understand and move the matter to final resolution without a formal complaint being filed, charges or an arrest. His years as a prosecutor and subsequent work as a defense lawyer rendered the obvious benefit of having worked on both sides of a criminal investigation, which was huge. I enthusiastically endorse and affirm Craig Gillespie as an outstanding attorney who skillfully guided my situation to a successful conclusion without a next step in the judicial process. While we were always confident in the outcome of the matter, it was a process through which we had to work and, although it took patience and faith, my selection of Craig Gillespie to represent me was, in hindsight, one of the best decisions I have ever made. Thank you Craig, Toby and Dave!
