"When I came to Craig, I was at a very difficult time in life facing very serious charges. He was there from when I needed him till I didn't. After paying Mr. Gillespie a considerable amount of money, I felt like I did not receive what I paid for. My case was tough but Mr. Gillespie did not handle it correctly. Throughout the process their was a lack of communication, lack of motivation and understanding of the case. I never knew where the money was being used until after the case which is highly unprofessional. I felt like I was on the back burner of his cases. It appears his firm just doesn't have the resources of capability to defend such cases. It was treated as a DUI case which it wasn't. Mr. Gillespie for me a "fair" deal for 3 years of prison time which he admitted to me multiple times this was a great deal. I believed him and took it. Shortly after I had regretted that decision and obtained other legal counsel. After paying a substantial amount of money, my case was completely re worked how it originally should of been and the outcome ended up how it should of been. Probation. If I went with Mr. Gillespie's advice, I would be in prison still and for a very long time. I would highly avoid coming to him with such big matters. It breaks my heart to leave this review but he deserves it. He did not fully commit to defending me and almost cause me my future. Please look elsewhere. Stay away from flat fee lawyers."

I highly recommend his firm to represent you and of cause I will send my friends . It was really pleasant to work with Craig Gillespie. He represented my son in DUI case and provide excellent result. Don`t look further then his firm. He's also been working to accommodate time to make it possible for our busy schedule. Craig as well has a really nice personality, it was really pleasant to work with him."

"I am very pleased with the outcome of my case and have Craig Gillespie and his team to thank for it. They were very organized and very easy to work with. Craig and Dave both were very helpful in answering any questions I had throughout the case. I really appreciated how prompt and honest they were in their responses to the questions I had. Hope to not have to use their services again but if I need to I will definitely reach out to them first. Highly recommend Craig and his team. Thanks again."
