Julie M. Healy

I received a ticket in a speed trap in OOB, Maine on local roads. Coming from Massachusetts I knew that the fine itself was a minor issue and that if convicted, the points for the next six years would cost me substantial money. I searched for an attorney on line and called several. Peter Cyr's office..., in Portland, ME was the only office where an attorney and not an assistant would talk to me. I hired Peter and he turned the case over to his colleague, Julie Healy. Julie was outstanding in her communications to me keeping me up to date on every transaction and issue. She represented me in court and prior to the actual hearing was able to negotiate with the police officer such that the case would be "filed" which essentially means dismissed, assuming I do not get another traffic violation in the next six months. I did have to pay a filing fee equal to the original ticket. I would highly recommend Julie Healy to anyone who chooses to contest a traffic ticket. She was professional, personable, and took my case seriously even though it was not a criminal issue. One point to be aware, the fee to this law office was high in my opinion ($ 800) but this was in line with all the other law offices in the area that I called. Still, Having had a similar situation about 10 years ago in Colorodo, and still being a MA resident, I only paid $ 250 then.

I recently had a case fighting against a speeding violation. Being three hours out of state, it would have been very hard for me to represent myself. Julie was able to appear for me in a professional, and very effective manor. I am greatly pleased with the turnout of my case and very thankful of Juli...e for her thorough and hard work. Julie made me feel comfortable with my situation and treated me on a personal yet professional level. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a professional, effective, and highly considerate attorney. She has put to rest a very large amount of stress that has been burdening me for months.

My specific situation required a last minute highly important request. I'm in the medical industry which requires 24/7 on call responsibilities which led to a nearly impossible situation for a court date hearing. I placed several calls to various firms after hours in hopes of getting the court date p...ushed back. I kept receiving voicemail after voicemail until I called Julie. Thankfully she out-works her colleagues and personally answered the phone. She had one single day to prepare the proper documentation for me. Instead of filing an extension, she spent countless hours working with and for me to represent me in court. Most lawyers would have taken the easy more lucrative road and file the extension. This would have easily doubled the cost for me since additional time and resources would have been needed. I can't thank Julie enough for not only taking this case last minute, but recommending that she could take this hearing head on and win in court. She will always be my first call moving forward. If you're looking for a highly intelligent straight shooter with a high degree of integrity, then Julie is the perfect match for you.

Julie went above and beyond her legal duties as my criminal defense lawyer. She was able to get my sentence cut from 14 days in jail to 48 hours in jail. Every move for the case she made she consulted me with me first and explained as to why she was taking that route vs another route. She was able... to give me advice on how to prove to the ADA that the crime I was being prosecuted was out of character for me. Julie, unlike other attorney's I've had would actually take time out of her day to talk to me about the case at hand and gave me legal advice on a driving case. Julie's response time to email's and phone calls was with in the day if not that day the next. She actually cares for her clients and doesn't see them as just another paycheck. Julie puts her heart into her job and her respect for her clients is unbelievable. Julie goes above and beyond any expectations I had and has even gone out of her way to help me with turning around my life. She truly loves what she does and it shows throughout her work, and personality. I would and have recommended her to others who have needed a great lawyer and will continue to use her as my lawyer or to consult her in my future.

Julie Healy was my lawyer in a case where I was wrongfully accused. She gathered the evidence and was diligent with her investigation into what actually happened on the day I was arrested. We went to court in Alfred, Maine. I had been arrested in Wells 4 months prior. The first time we went to a di...spositional hearing, Julie negotiated a plea with the DA. We decided I did not want to take it. I did not want to plead guilty to something I did not do. Julie agreed this was a case she court take to a trial. I was confident she could win in court. She then hired an investigator, subpoenaed my Doctor as well as my girlfriends Doctor and prepared for trial. On the day of jury selection she was able to negotiate an arrangement with the DA where nothing would be on my record. This took several hours of back and forth with the DA and then judge. I appreciated her hard work and I wont give up attitude.
