Best results!

Mr. Middlebrook cost a little bit more than a lot of the lawyers I spoke with, but when you're life is on the line, the difference of a few dollars becomes meaningless. Best results imaginable!

Thanks Mike! Means a lot to me. We are more expensive than most lawyers handling DUI cases. That's because we work harder and put more time in. Results aren't delivered; they are earned. They are earned through the tireless work of everyone on our team. People can charge less because they do less. I simply can't find a way to get the same results while applying short cuts and less effort.

Best lawyer hands down!

Where do I even begin!? This man changed my life! I was a second time offender for dui and after I talked to Mr. Middlebrook he reassured me that I was in great hands and he was not kidding! I read all these posts you are all reading right now and honestly thought it was to good to be true but after ...reading countless posts I was quick to realize he didnt get these reviews for nothing. So we talked and he was straight forward with me and I felt confident after talking to several wishy washy dui lawyers something just felt different and reassuring with Mr. Middlebrook. I paid the money and off he went to doing EVERYTHING! I did not appear to a single one of my 6 or 7 court dates, him and his team handled everything and kept me well informed and in the loop and his staff is so courteous. I had so many questions and Tanis and their team were always there with a helping hand! So allegedly I had blown a .22 with the field breathalyzer but they took me to get blood because there breathalyzer machine at the station did not work. I thought I was dead in the water and it sucked because I am a navy veteran who was seeking a career in law enforcement and was in the hiring process, I had just passed my written exam and was scheduled for the physical fitness test I had waited the 5 years from my first dui and this was legitimately the first time i drank and drove from my first DUI, some friends came in town for christmas and we all went out on christmas eve and not thinking I got behind the wheel Well this DUI defense attorney guru got my case completely dropped and thrown out!! I honestly have no idea how he did it but he did! Im just an average joe sharing my success story with you because if you are in the situation i was in and reading these reviews well they are legit and he is legit! I got no fines no classes its as if it never happened, oh forgot to mention my license was never suspended from the DMV throughout the whole process especially being a second time offender I knew I would lose my license, I did after my first one but nope kept it the whole time! Thank you Mr. Middlebrook for saving my railroad career I have right now and my chances of my future in law enforcement career are still an option! The money is worth it if you want to save your future from a bad mistake! Im a good person I work everday I take care of my family and I don't go out often because of things like this but Mr. Middlebrook just allowed me to keep my career, my license and chances of a future one if I still decide to go that route. I cant thank this man enough!!! He saved my life and no amount of money will ever be able to repay the debt I owe him!!! I'm keeping this anonymous because I never told my job about it in hopes it would get dropped and it did because of Mr Middlebrook and now I will never have to tell them because if I lost my license working in the railroad I would not have been able to keep my job! Thank you Mr. Middlebrook and staff for saving my life!!

Wow! Such kind words. I truly don't know what to say. Thank you from the whole team and from the bottom of my heart. Helping you through this was a privilege that you granted me that I can never repay. Some outcomes are better than others but this is one for the record books! Congratulations!

A real rating, from a real & appreciative client.

There are no words to express the amount of relief I got after Mr. Middlebrook and his team took my case. From start to finish their dedication, professionalism, aggressiveness and sincere guidance in every aspect of my situation got me through this rough time. Their online website also made it easy ...to access information at anytime. If I wanted to check up on the progress of my case, there it was. There is no other lawyer I would recommend 100%! Thank you a million Mr. Middlebrook, I was very fortunate to find you!

Honestly, very skeptical at first to hire an attorney, but super glad I hired Richard!

First offense, called Richard and was immediately put at ease with the information over the phone. Hired him and his team, and they took care of everything. And to go above and beyond, they were able to win a motion to clear my arrest record. Thank you Richard and Tanis!

Thank you for taking the time to post a quick review. In a sea of lawyers screaming from billboards about their "qualifications," I always feel having someone else sing the praises of our team carries a lot more weight! I've been honored to help you!

Awesome outcome

I am posting this anonymously do to nature of my job. Hiring Mr. Middlebrook was the best thing I could have done. I was pulled over, blew close to the legal limit, and was charged with a DUI. Considering how strict California is on these type of charges, I was worried that I would not be able to fig...ht this DUI, since most lawyers in the area had mediocre reviews. Mr. Middlebrook was the only lawyer that had good reviews but even though he is a little expensive it was well worth the money. His offices won’t call you a lot but do not worry because they are working vigilantly on your case. During the year I was waiting for a final decision to be made, I was allowed to keep my Drivers License the entire time thanks to Mr. Middlebrook and I didn’t really have to worry about anything for the entire year they were working on my case. The outcome was a reckless driving charge and a small fine. All in all if you care about your job or future it would be in your best interest to hire Mr. Middlebrook because he will get you the best outcome.

Thank you so much for such a kind and thoughtful review. While not every case is going to end in a dismissal of charges, realistic expectations given the factual circumstances go a long way to obtaining peace of mind. It was a privilege and honor to represent you. I'm grateful for your trust and patience. While it took a long time to resolve, I am so proud of the resolution we reached!
