Charges Dropped

I had a referral from another attorney that felt John Pozza could be some help in my case. I called and was able to have a consultation with John to lay out my case and get his feedback. My partner and I were both charged with the same offense and after hearing me out he agreed to represent both of... us. Through his and Tammy’s making calls to the DA’s office on our behalf the charges were dropped one day before our court date. My partner and I were both very relieved with the outcome. In the future if I’m silly enough to get in trouble again now I have John’s number in my phone.

Fantastic Attorney!!

John is wonderful!! I was arrested for 3 felonies concerning drugs. I don't do drugs, I don't buy drugs, I don't sell drugs, I don't have anything to do with drugs.
