I am incredibly grateful for the excellent job that Dave and Craig did in representing me throughout the 11 month process of resolving my DUI. As a health care worker the outcome had the significant consequences for my professional license therefore I was very anxious about the result. Dave and Cra...ig were compassionate and reassuring in addition to being highly competent. They were patient and knowledgeable in responding promptly to my many questions and I could not be more pleased with the final outcome.

I had a criminal case filed against me. Another lawyer, a friend of the family, had tried to help but really caused some serious issues for me. After asking friends and reviewing many attorneys on the internet, I felt Craig would be the best suited to help me. I was right!!! After I explained eve...rything that happened to Craig, he contact the other lawyer, got all the facts together. Then he explained my options to me and how some of the things the lawyer said were going to cause an issue for this case. He was sure I clearly understood all of the options facing me. I was scared and handling this alone. He was always there when I needed to talk with someone, and this reassured me and reduced my anxiety, which was pretty high. His calm demeanor also helped keep me focused and steady. It was a long a protracted process but Craig was always prepared, organized and calm which made me feel I had someone who was looking out for me. When we finally had a hearing and he questioned the person who was creating this lawsuit, he very calmly, deliberately and with the ability of a master tactician he was able to ask questions and get responses from that person which completely contradicted much of what was said in the complaint. The judge was clearly aware of the assertions and certainly noticed through Craig's deliberate series of qestions the lack of complete truthfulness of the person. The case ended with the best possible outcome for me. If I ever needed an attorney again, which I hope I do not, I would certainly use Craig. I recommend him to anyone needing a great deal of help and support through trying times.

I read though as many review's as I could, I liked Craig's reviews and really liked the fact that he was a Prosecutor for 5 yrs in the beginning of his Career. Just like any firm, after you hire them you deal with their hired on assistance/attorney. At first I didn't care for that, but by the end, I... wouldn't have had it any other way, Dave Roscoe is a very intelligent attorney and on his A game at all times. He conducted great interviews(recorded, then transcribed ) with all the police involved. This had the cops stumbling all over themselves on the stand when Craig got ahold of them at trial(with Transcript in hand). Craig has a very laid back and calmness about him that made the jury feel at ease and actually take the time to listen to him. He makes sure the jury sees you as an innocent person, not somebody that's guilty just because you are sitting in the defendants chair. He is also a very good juror selector which is critical. He studies each candidate in the selection process and makes good decisions in the tough final picks. He never made any promises as to the outcome , seemed to give his very honest opinion. All in all I had a very good experience with this firm and had an amazing outcome at the trial (Not Guilty) that I would never had if not for hiring Craig. Would def recommend.

Competent lawyer with a realistic strategy and great follow-through We hired Mr. Gillespie on October 2013, it was our second time in about ten years. The first-time we hired him was because my daughter had received a nasty ticket from an angry policeman that charged her with everything he could.... On that occasion Mr. Gillespie negotiated the ticket down, which resulted on pretty much a dismissal of the case. The current case was quite serious. Mr. Gillespie examined the charges from the start and clearly stated what was involved, and what was reasonable to expect. She was being charged with a felony, a charge that if convicted would mean the end of the career she has been preparing for; furthermore, a felony would make it very difficult for her to obtain any kind of employment. I should mention that Mr. Gillespie is a board certified lawyer in Arizona, so he belongs to a small group of criminal lawyers in the State that hold that credential. He has competition, for sure, but he is a serious person. When talking to him he comes across as a disciplined individual that takes his profession seriously; a person that talks to his client with respect but who does not believe in sugar coating a major problem. If you are in trouble, he is going to tell you so. It should be mentioned that Mr. Gillespie makes himself available when you need him. The three times when a phone call was necessary, he was available at the time specified by the firm’s secretary. After hiring him, we provided him as much support as we could by furnishing all available pertinent background information. It has been made clear to us that the job of the attorney in cases like my daughter’s was to provide as much information to the prosecutor as possible, so a clear picture emerged regarding the nature of her character. Cases are won through preparation – a Louis Nizer paraphrase. How Mr. Gillespie presented my daughter’s case to the prosecutor is not something that I cared to ask. As the saying goes, it is not appetizing to watch how sausage is made. In the end her case was reduced to a misdemeanor, a charge we can live with. The dream outcome was a dismissal, but for that we needed the help of a witch doctor.

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.
