Melissa Charles is the best at what she does. She is diligent and has a perfect perception of the legal environment. As a client I could not ask for a better representation. Her staff and office are exceptional for efficiency and attitude, with a very rating for her paralegal. All in all, best of the best.

Melissa was honest and upfront about what was to happen in the courtroom, what to expect, that she was going to fight for my rights. She was more than fair and worked hard to get more than I expected to get from a lawyer.

Hired Attorney

DO NOT USE THIS FIRM!!!!! She reduced my retainer of 7,500.00 to 0.00 and then requested withdrawl as representive because she had a personal vendetta, and manipulation of existing resources (Network and Legal System)to get the judge to agree even after I denied her request (She got paid to know my case then failed to communicate as well as failed to follow my written instructions). Mrs Charles is unprofessional and will take all your retainer and then drop you as a client after retainer gone if you dont follow her "recommendations", even though you are the one whom hired her! DO NOT USE THIS FIRM!!!
