What recent reviews say

Clients consistently report quick access to attorneys and hands-on support from legal staff. Will Cathcart, Diane Price, Erik Ashman, and Salena Davis handle criminal defense, traffic, and DUI cases with attention to detail. Many reviewers note reasonable fees and cases resolved to their satisfaction.

The firm's named attorneys and assistants like Carmen Sosa and Michelle provide regular updates and guide clients through proceedings. Reviewers mention DUI dismissals, traffic ticket resolutions, and court representation. One early complaint flagged overpricing and unmet promises, though recent feedback skews toward professional, thorough service.
