Christopher John Rick Carlos

I want to start off with that this man is very straightforward and can come off as a jerk, but He tells it like it is and doesn’t sugarcoat anything. I didn’t think I was going to get anywhere with him, we butted heads a couple times, but i kept reminding myself that he deals with some intense cases ...and some pretty crazy people on a day to day basis. I stayed calm, called him when I had any questions and just had faith in his work and stayed out of his hair. I was facing a couple serious felony charges and as of today, my charges were dropped and my case was dismissed. Every time I went to court I would hear people yelling and arguing with him, and I must say, this man has a lot on his plate. He has no problem giving the same energy back that you come to court with. He was appointed to me so I know a lot of people think we are all just a “case to him” but he tells it like it is. Everything he told me the DA and the court was gonna say and look at, they did. No “ if, and’s or buts” Everything he told me was true. There’s only so much he can do to defend. But he stood his ground with my case and I’m so grateful to be at home with my family. You have to have thick skin and be prepared to hear the truth if you’re appointed to him but all I can say is give him some faith, give him time and patience and let him do his job. I didn’t think I would have ever heard those words in court today, but I did. He’s a good man and a good public defender you just gotta have some faith in him because at the beginning I really didn’t, he knows what he’s doing.
