Great lawyer

Kami is an amazing lawyer. Dhe is knowledgeable, super responsive, thorough and diligent! She helped me tremendously by negotiating and talking to the DA. Quick note regarding her diligence: the court made a mistake in the charging instrument (forgot to strike out some language that was agreed upon... with the DA). When she called court a couple times to fix the mistake and they didn't respond, she physically went to court, tracked down the DA, and both of them went to the judge's chamber and made sure everything was correctly done. I am forever grateful to her for helping me out!

The lawyer was able to answer all my questions regarding my offense and were also able to explain to me what it was I could expect during the process. The quality of representation went far and beyond what I had expected. I learned that there were going to be several days where I would have needed to... miss from work, but my team allowed to me to maintain days missed from work to the absolute minimum. At first I was very nervous, anxious, and overwhelmed with my experience, not knowing how I would get through this. I know I made the right call when I contacted Reynolds Defense Firm. Thank you for all your help and support.
