THE BEST CHOICE FOR THE BEST OUTCOME

Don't even think of another attorney if you want the best results for your case!!! After my DUI arrest I immediately started looking on the internet for lawyers to handle my case. Anyone who finds themselves in this situation needs to look no further than Mindy! She is a no nonsense attorney who wo...rks tirelessly to get the best results. I was facing my 2nd DUI and a hit and run, both of which could result in harsh punishments. Mindy knows the courts and the system inside and out, she answered all of my questioins and always returned my phone calls promptly. She kept me aware of my case status and made me feel like family, I felt total and complete trust in her. In the end she was able to get my hit and run dismissed and a very minimal sentence! She fought hard for me until she got the absoulte best results for me. Thank you Thank you Mindy!

SHE'S THE BEST AND NOT EVEN CLOSE!

I'm telling you do not even look at another review or call anybody else. Do yourself a favor and call Mindy Mcqueen and she will absolutely do a great job for you and get fantastic results. She is worth every penny you pay her and she will be working hand over foot for you to get the best possible ou...tcome in your case. I made a mistake like everybody else does and I have personal knowledge about how the Ventura County Court system can be. I really was expecting some jail time or at least work release and I received zero jail time and no work release. Simply Amazing. Mindy answers her calls personally and gets back to you promptly. You will be explained how the process works in detail and what you need to do every step of the way. There is a reason why she has such a high rating, it's because she deserves it and she's damn good at what she does. I have probably written 1 other review for anything in the past because my time is valuable and I don't have much of it but I will spend the time to write this review because Mindy does such a great job for her clients. I can't say enough good things about her but you will be giving yourself the best chance possible when you hire her.

MINDY MCQUEEN IS THE BEST!!!!

Mindy McQueen represented me and is by far, the most knowledgable, strategic, well connected attorney i've ever met. I spoke to alot of others prior to hiring Mindy and knew exactly what questions to ask, yet no one was as straight forward with me as she was. Obviously, she is in demand and busy but ...i never went a single day without having a call returned, question answered and by far appreciated her promptness and candor. Getting a DUI can bring so much shame to most and a tremendous amount of guilt. Mindy always reminded me that a poor decision does not define me and that this too shall pass. (JUST DONT DO IT AGAIN) I felt like Mindy fought for me as if she were defending her own flesh and blood and that meant the world to me. Never once did she mislead me, give false hope or unrealistic expectations and i was amazed by how well she could predict the outcome..I was VERY grateful to be represented by her and somehow, after blowing nearly 3X the legal limit, My Queen, i mean, Mindy McQueen (one in the same) was able to get me off with ZERO jail time, ZERO community service, NO interlock and all i have to do is pay some fines and complete a 9 month alcohol school. Bottomline, if you have been arrested for a dui in ventura county and don't hire Mindy McQueen you are simply not giving yourself a fair shot. Thanks for everything Mindy, you're amazing and all your hardwork is appreciated, i'd reccomend Mindy to anyone who gets themselves in this predicament.

Mindy, Get's It Done, McQueen

I hired Mindy on the recomendation of a friend who hired her and she did a great job for me. I was twice the legal limit BAC, which is a second count, and she got that second count dismissed. She handled all of my appearances personally. I did not have to show up in court. She was friendly, respon...sive, knowlegable, and had the experience and personal connections to get things done. She kept me informed at each step and was honest about what she could and could not do for me. I would hire her again (hopefully I won't need to) and I would recommend her to anyone!

"I endorse this lawyer's work. Mindy McQueen enjoys a superior reputation in Ventura County as a tenacious attorney who fights hard for her clients. Ventura County is a tough community for DUI cases, but Mindy consistently achieves great results for her clients. She's a born fighter, and her practice is limited to DUI Defense and DMV Hearings, so she is at the top of her game. If you are arrested for DUI in Ventura County, your first order of business should be to hire Mindy McQueen to help you."
