I still can’t believe Joel got my case dismissed!! I had almost a perfect driving record prior to my DUI arrest. One night after driving home from a dinner with friend’s I was involved in an accident, it wasn’t my fault and I found myself in a situation I had never dreamed to be in. It was scary and I had little knowledge of what to do or who to speak with for help. I immediately started researching attorney’s and, after speaking to many different law offices, the moment I had my first conversation with Joel I knew he believed in me 100% and would fight for my case better than anyone else. He was aggressive and worked relentlessly on my case. I never doubted that he would get me the best possible outcome and I wasn’t wrong. My case was DISMISSED, we never even went to trial and I got the entire incident ERASED from my record. The entire experience was grueling and stressful but Joel always had confidence in our strategy and was ready to fight for me every step of the way. I never imagined that my case would be dismissed but what Joel was able to do was nothing short of a miracle. Like I said, I still can’t believe I’m writing this review having never gone to court and my case dropped!!
I want whoever reads this to know, that Joel Leppard is not only an excellent attorney, but an excellent human being. I know this because, he represented me in a situation where I was innocent but I was afraid and thanks to his advise I decided to take my DUI case to a jury trial, even though I was offered a reckless driving. Guess what? We won!!!! He is soo awesome, he puts himself in your shoes, and walks you through the process as if it was him. He's not just working for you, he's working with you!
