Behind the Great Wall of Gerry

Let me start by say; thank you Mr. Carrasco. Never in my wildest imagination would I have found myself in need of a criminal defense attorney. Without getting into specifics, he was highly recommended and I am glad I made the call. From the time we first spoke on the phone to the time I finally m...et with him in his office the thing that struck me most was the fact that he listened. In fact he actually allowed me to vent my frustrations about my pending case and when it was all said and done, Mr. Carrasco verbally repeated the scenario of my case, almost verbatim; that was an indication that I was hiring the right attorney. Mr. Carrasco's attention to detail is beyond reproach. His eyes and ears for gathering facts and information stood out. He always gave me a straight answer to my questions and also educate me about the law, penal codes or statutes that applied to my case; I consider myself a better listener. This was the most difficult time in my life. My family and I could not have gotten through this without Mr. Carrasco by our side. The sense of relief that Mr. Carrasco is un-explainable. Mr. Carrasco never made me any promises, but he would advise me based upon what he felt was the best case scenario for the various stages of my case. When it was all finished and done, I can say that Mr. Carrasco helped me get my life back. For lack of a better way to say this, I hope I never need his services again, because its means that I have been accused of breaking the law, something I have spent my entire life abiding and respecting, but now it means that I share my experience and pay his services forward to someone else in need of a great, honest, and knowledgeable attorney. Once again, thank you for everything. And as my family like to call him, "The Great Wall of Gerry", because anytime he was present to represent us, we felt safe and secure.
