Amazing Representation

I was facing 10 years in the state pen. My first lawyer had abandoned me right before we were set for preliminary hearing, saying 'this is going to be too much work' when he first got the rec from the DA. I was terrified. I started calling number after number, searching for a lawyer I thought I co...uld work with and trust. I was shuttled around with secretaries. I called lawyers who said they answered their own phones only to be told I needed to pay them thousands of dollars just to sit down and talk. Then I called Charlie. He was calm and honest with me. I think the first phone call was about 20 minutes, 8 o'clock at night. We set up a (free) meeting for me to come in and talk the next day. He didn't try to scare me, but he took an hour out of his day and explained the various possibilities to me. He's a big guy, kinda intimidating actually, but really quiet and calm. Confident. He took my case for a very reasonable price, put me on a comfortable payment plan, and got to work. Three months later I plead to a 4 year deferred sentence where instead of getting 10 years in the pen, I will receive an expungement and no conviction in just a few years, god willing. I firmly believe I was led to this man. He took the time to listen to me, worked on the DAs over and over with his calm, reasonable tone. It surprised me, the DA shook his hand at the end of it and they were both smiling. If you need actual help, call this man. If you want some low priced screamer who's going to get you thrown in jail, I guess keep looking. I feel so blessed.

One of the Good Ones

I was in a bad spot before I went to see Mr. Charlie. I had been to a couple of lawyers who had not treated me well (I won't name them here), but from the first phone call I knew he was different. First off, he actually answered his phone. He took the time to listen to me and set up a meeting wher...e we could talk more. He explained the whole process to me for my case, I got a DUI. Then he kept me in the loop, took care of everything at court and got me a great deal. Mr. Charlie is the only one I would trust if I were in trouble.
