Extremely knowledgable

When I first got my DUI (22 years old)I felt that it would destroy my whole life as I had only heard the worst when it comes to a DUI. I was referred to him by a friend who let me know Anthony is knowledgable, helpful and trustworthy. I experienced this first hand at our first meeting. He is extremel...y knowledgable; I can't begin to praise his knowledge because it is so extensive. He delivered the information in a clear and digestible manner and his calm demeanor let me know he is confident and knows what he is talking about. Not only did he help me with the DUI but with another case. He got about 4-5 of my charges dismissed which is amazing! All of my friends told me to use a public defender because all DUI charges are the same but that couldn't be any more untrue. He specialized his approach to my situation and gave me top quality professional consultation and service. I recommend Anthony for anything, he really took the "weight" off my shoulders and always had my best interests in his services rendered to me. Anthony really helped me out in a time where it wasn't easy to stay positive and for that I am forever grateful.

He WON!

Having the DUI on my record would not only hurt myself but put my family at jeopardy. I was determined to find an Attorney that understood my case and would do the work to get it resolved. The moment I met with Anthony I knew we would be a perfect fit. He listened to me, answered all my questions, he... provided feed back in a timely manner. If he was not available to assist me, someone from his office was always available and responded to my concerns within 24 hours or less. Through the whole court process I felt secured knowing I had a knowledgeable and experienced attorney on my case. One of the happiest and most grateful moments was the day we left court and won with little or reduced fines to pay. Knowing I can drive again legally and help the family out has put no measurable value to what Anthony did for our family. If your in need of an attorney who is prepared, experienced and honest, give Anthony a call

Extreamly knowledgeable

Mr.Blalock was extreamley helpful with my unfortunante experience. He made sure i stay calm though the entire process mostly by keeping me well informed with outcomes and possibilities and overall made my bad experience become at ease. He did his research and homework and knocked it out of the park. ...I give him an A+ on his knowledge and fact he kept me calm and with no worries even if outcome was to become worse. Thank you very much Mr.Blalock

"The best! Helped my client out and gave me great advice. I was referred to him by another lawyer. I worked on a few DUI's years ago but Anthony was great with my case. I've referred cases to other attorneys and not been happy with how they handled my client. Anthony was easy to work with, kept me informed and the client informed. If you have a client that gets a DUI you can feel safe referring them to Mr. Blalock."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
