Excellent service and very persistent with the court. I have a CDL license and got a ticket in a surrounding county around San Antonio. They didn?t want to dismiss it. Mr. Anthony had to take it all the way to a pre-trial and talk to the judge to get it done. Highly recommend especially if you have a commercial drivers license!

Would highly recommend to anyone who gets a traffic violation. The firm was readily able to answer any questions that I had. The ticket I received was high and the outcome could have been much worse had I not had Mr. Cantrell's help.

This firm is amazing! Both, Anthony and Joseph, have helped me with all of my cases. They have gone out of their way in order to ensure that my desired outcome was met. Their knowledge and their technical ability wowed me every time they spoke? not only to me, but the prosecutors as well. Through all of my court appointments and trials, they both made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend this firm. I can?t thank you guys enough. I really appreciate what you do for everyone.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
