Hire Craig - Restore your certainty

Found detective card on your door! Choose Craig Gillespie to defend you. I contacted Craig Gillespie because his website showcased his many awards and experience in a wide range of criminal law including my problem. Unlike all other attorneys, I found no negative ratings posted from Craig’s clie...nts. There were many positive ratings about his fair price & truly caring about defending his clients. I was particularly moved by a testimonial stating that another attorney said their case would cost many thousands of dollars, but Craig handled it quickly for free; discovering and sharing that the prosecutor dismissed their case. I submitted a request for a free consultation on Craig’s website. In just 30 minutes Brenda called me back and scheduled it to my convenience. Craig didn't make me feel bad about my mistake. He is extremely talented and generous with his time. Craig gave more than just a free consultation. He called the detective leaving a message while I was there, insulating me from risky contact. Craig eased my worries letting me know the possible and likely outcomes; and even in the worst case scenario, his defense can improve on the situation. There was a reasonable chance that the matter could be resolved over the phone too. If it can be resolved quickly on the call back, Craig said he wouldn't even charge me. In my most desperate moment, Craig gave his time and expertise. The testimonials are true. Craig made multiple calls to the investigating detective, called me back two days later, and provided legal advice. So far no criminal charges have been filed or legal fees incurred. Don't talk to an investigator who is skilled at getting you to confess and very likely to overcharge you. All those years you have been saving, now is the time to invest in your life. You must get an attorney that you can trust, and can restore the certainty that you need. Thank you so very much Craig for giving me peace of mind and my wonderful life back.

A Father's Review of Son's representation

My 18 year old ran across a problem after being stopped while driving under the influence of Marijuana and in possession of minute quantity- the State of Arizona has little tolerance in writing, but the experience of Craig Gillespie and his partner Dave Roscoe proved to be very helpful in mitigating ...the ramifications of the "crimes". They knew thru practical experience how to approach the few members of the Judicial system who may have the ability to positively influence the outcome. There were not many avenues to go down but Craig and Dave took what they could get and were able to counsel our family in the best course of action for us. They knew which programs would provide the best results and have the least on going impact. It is a long process, our situation will be in the 30 month range for overall completion. The Gillespie Firm maintained good communications, much of the time there was nothing to communicate due to the Courts slow process, but they were available and provided good counsel. When the time came for action they jumped in and allowed for questions, comments, and pursued our decided upon course of action, which had been arrived at mutually. They did not 'sugar coat' anything regarding the case nor did they frighten us or allow us to get too optimistic. The process is not simple, not nice, not clean, but Craig and Dave made it the best that they could. They have practice specialties, ours was DUI- Marijuana- we were very pleased with their professional advise, attitude, and process. They charged a competitive price, we would highly recommend them to similarly affected individuals.

A honest Lawyer who works hard for you.

Craig represented me for a probation revocation. I knew I was going to Prison. My probation officer said I would be going for 1 to 5 years. The prosecutor wanted me to go for 2 years. Craig represented me to his fullest abilities and he never let me down. I served 6 month's prison time with a 86 day ...credit. Far less than what everyone else was trying to lock me up for. Craig helped me keep my family together and everyone in my family was happy with our results. I would recommend Craig Gillespie to anyone that is in trouble for anything.

Outstanding Legal Team

The Gillespie Law firm was recommended to us by our Estate Planning Attorney and we were exceptionally impressed with the overall legal & business acumen of the firm. We worked directly with Craig & Dave who were very up front with us regarding the legal aspects of our situation as well as effective...ly working through opposing counsel to successfully resolve a very complicated legal matter. Everyone in the firm from the front office staff to Craig himself was extremely professional and always accommodating, understanding, responsive and timely in their follow-up. We would absolutely use their services if we ever needed this type of legal representation again and highly recommend their firm.

Thank you Craig, we appreciate you.

We can't thank Craig enough for all he did for our son. Our son had gotten himself into a bad situation and the results could have been a lot worse. Because of Craig, our son's sentence was minimal in the scheme of things. We are forever grateful to Craig and all he did for us. Being from California ...we had done our research through the phone, and interviews with attorneys to help us select someone to work with. Looking back, we feel so blessed to have found Craig. He was very experienced, professional, and paid a lot of attention to details. Craig was also very easy to talk to and work with. We always felt Craig was very calming to us and our son in such a challenging situation. He always made us feel like we were the only one's he was assisting. We would definitely refer Craig to anyone that was in need of excellent legal assistance. Also, a shout out to all of his staff that was always there to answer any and all of our questions in a timely manner. Thank's again, We truly appreciate you.
