Excellent Support

Lucky has provided me with excellent support and advice as I navigate my path forward. I highly recommend Lucky and am grateful that I was referred to him by someone I trust, who has worked with him for many years.

Criminal or family matters, you matter to Lucky

Lucky fights hard and gets results. He was able to get the state to drop charges and get me consistent visitation with my son. He is on your side and will do what he can to help. I highly recommend him for any criminal or family matter you encounter!

Without Lucky all would have been lost.

At every turn lucky has been awesome. He's been my lawyer since April of 2017 with his help I was able to defeat a temporary protection order and get a good temporary parenting plan. He continues to work on my divorce. At every turn I have been grateful that Lucky is my lawyer. He has explained ever...y step of what we need to do. One of the things I like is almost every time we talk he asks how the kids are doing.

If you feel the world is imploding! Get Lucky!

There is no way around it, divorce sucks and so does the family court system. My spouse and I split because she "wasn't in love anymore". When I wouldn't give her everything, accusations of all types of abuse were made. Three different trials in three different cities. Lucky was first my criminal def...ense attorney that eventually took over the divorce side. the two+ years was long. I thought it would never end. Having so much emotion, I wasn't always rational. Lucky took over. We succeeded on all trials (one didn't even make it to the actual trial because the Prosecuting attorney had no case and bluffed they're way thru always trying to get me to plead out). It is sad that false accusers have no repercussions in family court. Lucky made sure everything was done and because of the history of questionable (false) accusations, he made sure there were certain things written to protect me from future issues. If it wasn't for him, I probably would have no contact with my kids. Seven years later, the kids now live with me. Thank you Lucky!

Family Court

Lucky has been my lawyer for about a year now, helping me get a better parenting plan so I could see my daughter more. He was relentless on getting us what we needed so that I could be a better father. His work was greatly appreciated I could not have asked for a better lawyer. There is still some wo...rk to be done but he has my trust that he will do the best he can to help us.
