Great!

A great attorney, simply amazing. I've never had to use a lawyer before, I'm glad betnun was our lawyer. He wasl calm but persistent and always gave me the benefit of the doubt. Betnun walked me through everything and got me through the finish line.

Great man

When times get tough, Melvin Betnun is the man you want to call. He has been our lawyer for quite some time and has never let me or my husband down. His work is the best and he doesn't treat you like a child. He has been handling all our legal business for years and will continue to in the future. If... you need a criminal defense attorney give this man a call.

Great ATTORNEY

I had Betnun's card in my house for more than a year before I needed to give him a call. When I did need legal advice I dug up his card and gave him a call. Let me tell you about mr. Betnun, this guy is a complete professional. He is respectful, straight to the point and quick. His experience is ...obvious just by hearing him speak. going from multiple charges including a felony charge, Betnun got it all reduced to a single infraction. Seeing him in court was a treat. I know have a lawyer I will come to for every single legal problem.

helped my family in hard times

I will definitely recommend the services of this attorney, Mr Betnun was nothing but kind to me and my family during our time of distress. I haven't hired an attorney who has the same motivation as Betnun does. He is a very kind and smart man that knows his way around the court system. My son be...ing in trouble with the law is a first time but that charge could affect his future so we needed a really good attorney that knew what they were doing to get the charges dropped and that is what Mr. Betnun did. I am so glad that I called him requesting his representation. I recommend him to anyone who is in need of help in those hard times.

Case Dismissed!

Melvin managed to get my case dismissed, what I thought would be a bad record was removed. I have a lot of respect for Melvin I got to see that he is a real hard worker and will fight for the best outcome possible. He gets my recommendations for being such a good attorney.
