Questions & Answers

Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.

I helped a disabled veteran from Mississippi release a hold in Colorado from an old DUI case that was preventing him from getting a license in his home state. It took 6 months and a lot of personal intervention with the local District Attorneys Office and Court, but I got the hold lifted and client reinstated license. I was delighted I could help him.
