This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Thank you!

I have to thank Billy Redell for helping me in my case. His expertise in what he does really showed. He was recommended to me by a family friend for criminal defense cases and boy did that recommendation come in handy recently. I had a personal case that really took me for a ride but Billy kept me co...ol, calm, & collected for the entirety of the trial. I was looking at some serious time but more & more Mr. Redell was able to finesse the judge into seeing the entirety of the evidence. I now feel I owe a simple recommendation because my man pulled through for me and I can only try to thank him enough for what he did.

I Am Breathing Much Easier Now!

As I was looking for an attorney I was in a panic. I needed help and I needed it fast. Once I met Billy, I knew I had found the right attorney for me. He is very likable, calming, and reassuring. He has been practicing criminal law for many years in my court so I knew he had the right experience. ... All that being said, It turns out I was right. I am so grateful that I found Billy. I am thrilled with the results.
