We met Glen unexpectedly and were so glad we did.

My son and I encountered a legal issue with no prior knowledge from the prosecuting entity, or the police, and we went to the court house to learn of it, and learn our next court date, of which we did not know, and we were flummoxed what to do. I knew Glen previously and as we walked from the courtho...use to the plaza, there he was! I asked him about the issue and he told me a statute immediately that he could use, since we already paid restitution. Shortly after, we met Glen formally and engaged him and he met with the prosecutor and the case was dismissed within 4 months or so. Glen and his team emailed us back each inquiry and always told us what was happening and I believe he felt our chagrin for the whole incident. There were not even any more court dates for us to attend. He obviously convinced the prosecutor of the merits of our defense. In the end I received back a very large part of the retainer fee, which is a helpful bonus. We are so glad we coincidentally ran into Glen at the courthouse grass that day. If you need criminal law help too, I hope you are that fortunate to speak with Glen.

Great Lawyer, knowledgable and compassionate

I used Glen in a situation where I was falsely accused. Glen was very compassionate and understanding through the entire ordeal. Glen made sure that I was kept informed at all times. He handled this matter efficiently and effectively, which ended in my favor. I appreciate Glen and his team and thankf...ul to have been able to have him represent me. D

Justice was done

He did well on laying out procedure and helping me understand what was needed to be done in terms of my case. He helped me be at ease and was honest in the whole process. Although being the first time needing an attorney I felt through the process that took the better part of a year could have been s...hortened with a slightly more aggressive approach. But that could just be my ignorance on how things get done. In the end that matter was dismissed and I finally could move on without it over my head.

Highly Recommended

I am a male in my 50’s and have never been involved with the law so my knowledge is zero to none in legal matters. Found myself with felony charges from a past marriage. I was in over my head and if I didn’t have Glen and the team encouraging me and fighting for me I don’t know how I would have made ...it through this devastating time. Glen felt like family from the first day I met him and went straight to work on my case. Glen knows the law and knows the Prescott officials so he is able to get the status and information needed quickly. Even though the case was no slam dunk it gave me the reality of what the situation was and the best way to deal or attack it. Glen gave me the best scenario, the most likely, and even the worst scenario. I wanted to work towards the most likely/safe scenario and Glen encouraged me to give him a chance to make it better. I am beyond glad I had Glen outside of court to help and encourage me, but I am more thankful that I had Glen in the courtroom with me. He is respectful and respected in the courts. Glen cannot control how things will turn out in the court room but he explained the expectations of how he believed it would go. At court there were challenges but Glen kept to task and went to bat for me. We were able to get me out of there with the results I was hoping for. I can look back now and see how thankful I am for how transparent Glen was from the beginning. I am also so thankful and impressed how he skillfully kept to task in court. My family and I are so thankful for Glen and the team. He works for his clients and he actually cares for their situation. We need more people like Glen and his team.

Thank You Glen for all you did to help me!

I hired Glen after extensively reviewing all local attorneys. After reading all the raving reviews, I knew his firm was the best to help with my situation. I am beyond grateful and satisfied with the outcome that he delivered. Glen and his team worked diligently to get the most favorable outcome poss...ible, and they were always available to reach out to with any questions and providing updates. He was reassuring from the very beginning and made the whole entire process clear and understandable. He and his team are kind, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I am so happy that I went with his counsel! Thank you Glen!!
