Alacrity and Dispatch

I hired Douglas Borthwick to represent me in a criminal case. The allegations were false and Douglas was able to persuade the prosecutor that the charges were wrong and improper. The prosecutor dismissed the case against me. He did an excellent job as my attorney. Douglas acted with a calm, but... assertive demeanor. He got the desired result in a timely manner. I consider him a professional in every way and would recommend him.

Focused and Caring

A few years ago, Douglas Borthwick represented me in a criminal matter. I was distraught. Douglas guided me through the process and made me feel comfortable. Aside from being my lawyer, he was a great advisor on life and life choices. We received a great result and I feel indebted to him.

Cooperative, Responsive, Fighter

Douglas Borthwick was my criminal defense attorney for a complex criminal case for which I was wrongfully accussed. My life was on hold for over 2 years while Douglas worked my case. He believed in me and he believed in my defense. I was vindicated and found not guilty. I now have my life bac...k and I owe this to Douglas. He is a fantastic person and attorney.
