Saving Grace

I posted my review for Annie on another site, but thought I would post it here too: Six months ago, I was at the worst point of my life and mental state. I had been arrested for DV after years of arguments at our home spiraling out of control. I actually had originally hired another lawyer who mad...e me feel like I was a horrible person. The moment I walked into Lance’s office for the first time, I was treated like a human being and was able to truly start healing. Lance put another attorney at the firm, Annie Kidniz, in charge of my case and put me in touch with a therapist who has a lot of experience in serious cases like mine. I have been seeing him every week since. They also had me start the DV-MRT program before the court ever asked me to do so, and I am already almost finished with that too. Annie has been the most amazing, tactful, and compassionate lawyer who fought for me at every juncture. I felt so taken care of and reassured the whole time that I was on the right path to healing. Eventually, my felony case was reduced to a misdemeanor through a plea bargain that Annie was able to negotiate with the prosecutor, and I will not be serving any jail time. Initially, I was looking at up to two years in prison. To top it all off, the NCO between my wife and I has been removed, and we can now finally resume our life and mend our wounds from the past with all the guidance and support we continue to receive from Annie, our therapists, and our family and friends. The decision to talk to Lance in my time of need was possibly the best decision I ever made in my life. I don’t know where I would be today without this amazing law firm. I am forever grateful.

Great Attorney!

Anastasia is an amazing attorney. She did a great job. I got exactly what I wanted when I hired her. I was originally charged with a felony but she got the charge reduced to a misdemeanor. Thank you!

DUI Case

Anastasia Kidniz was with me throughout a horrendous time in my life. I was really lost when I was first charged with the DUI and I would still be lost if I had not met her. It was really a blessing that she was given my case as I could not have asked for anyone better to guide me and help me through...out the process. I also know that she went the extra mile all the time with my immigration issues and advising me throughout the process. I am really thankful that Annie was my attorney for my DUI. If anyone had to ever go through a tough time like I had during my time with my DUI Case, they should hire Annie as their lawyer. Not only is she extremely responsive and a helpful lawyer, she is very personal and kind and always there for her client. Annie is also extremely detailed, at times she was more worried about my DUI Case than I was. This really showing the amount of care she has for all her clients. Thank you Annie :)

So glad I found her!

Getting a DUI is no pleasant experience. However, working alongside Annie alleviated nearly all the stress of dealing with the situation. From the initial consultation to the final day in court, she made me feel relaxed and confident the entire time. Not only did she always make me feel at ease, but ...she succeeded in lowering my case to reckless driving. She kept me completely informed and comfortable every step of the way. This DUI brought a great deal of stress into my life, but I am grateful to have had Annie guiding me through the process. She is sincere, sharp, and a total breeze to work with. She knows what she's doing!

"I'm married to her. That would seem to make this endorsement pretty biased, right? Maybe! But I do have independent reason to think that she's an excellent attorney. We don't ever talk about private client information. But we do talk about publicly-available results. And I'm consistently blown away by what she's able to do."
