Family Law & Criminal Defense

I found Melinda in 2016, and have been gateful ever since. Melinda has handled several of my cases, from criminal defense, to family law in the last few years. I decided to go to Melinda because the attorney I hired for my criminal case kept stringing me along, pushing my dates out, and charging me m...ore and more. Melinda got my case settled on the first court appearance and went above and beyond for me. Since then, she has been a godsend to me, helping me get more custody of my kids, and taking care of all my legal issues. It’s hard to find an attorney that cares, much less a lawyer that treats you like family. I refer Melinda to all my friends, she turned my life around for the better and I will forever be thankful for her. Satisfied Client, Tommy R.
