Best Attorney

I got arrested in December of 2014 because I had a warrant out for my arrest due to forging prescriptions for Percocet. I was released the next day with 11 felonies, ranging from forgery, possession of narcotics and conspiracy to illegally obtain narcotic drugs. I also had 4 prior felonies and was ...sentenced to AZ department of corrections in 2007. With my new charges and my priors, I was literally facing 10.5-20 years in prison, I had no choice but to contact an attorney for there was no way I was going to allow a public defender represent me in this case, so I contact Mr. Coolidge to represent me. From the very first meeting with Mr. Coolidge I knew he was the only person that I wanted to represent me. For the past year he has worked diligently on my case in order to fight to keep me out of prison and that is exactly what he did, he fought and fought with everything he had. In Jan of 2016 I went to court for my sentencing. Mr. Coolidge was able to get me a plea agreement that dismissed 8 of the 11 charges, he was able to get a "no agreements plea" (which is a really big deal) and most importantly NOT introduce ANY of my priors. He stood up before the Judge and brilliantly made a case to keep me out of prison and give me probation so that I can go home to my son. The Judge handed down a sentence of 4 years probation. Not only did I NOT get any prison time, I also did NOT get any jail time, NO restitution, very minimal fines and I got to walk out of that court room. I cant express enough the gratitude that I have for the amazing job that Mr. Coolidge did on my behalf. Even the pre-sentence probation office recommended I get sentenced to prison on all 3 cases and yet because of Mr Coolidge's hard work and dedication to my case, I did not have spend any time in custody. Mr. Coolidge is hard working, dedicated, very smart, brilliant attorney. I would truly recommend Mr. Coolidge to anyone and everyone dealing with any type of criminal case. If you are facing any type of charges and are considering Mr. Coolidge to represent you, please take it from someone who was facing 20 years in prison and was able to just get probation, HIRE HIM IMMEDIATELY, I promise you WILL NOT regret it.

.265 Super Extreme DUI

I got pulled over for a .265 (Super Extreme DUI) and due to Mr. Coolidge ended up with a DMV Reckless Driving charge. No jail time, no DUI, no probation and no change on my insurance. .. Nothing.

Extreme DUI Case

Based on a recommendation from a friend Todd assisted me with my DUI case a year or so ago. I have since referred him to other friends. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and always responded to any questions in a timely manner. With Todd as my lawyer I knew I didn't have to worry about anyt...hing and did not lose any sleep over wondering what was going to happen. You could tell you could just relax and let him do his job. I highly recommend him!

Todd did an excellent job of managing my case. Although I was going through various medical treatments, Todd kept the case on track and filed all necessary motions to accommodate my timing. In the end, he was able to work w/ the prosecution to come to a mutually acceptable outcome. All this was vi...rtually seamless for me. Highest marks.

Motion to be released from probation

Todd was great. Before I had even hired him & told him I couldn't afford his representation, he researched my situation and called me to tell me that he could help me and lowered his fee so that I could afford it. When he placed the motion before the court, it was accepted by the court within a wee...k. I highly recommend Todd for anyone who needs representation for Criminal Defense.
