Sarah Barker

"They called me back so quickly and took on my case making me feel confident for court. Jim Lankford took on my case and made me feel so confident and took so much stress off of me. He was an amazing listener and took everything I had to say to mind. After getting a good outcome with my case and not having me to worry about anything was incredible. After our trial he called me (I’m from out of state) and talked with me for over an hour making sure I understood fully what the outcome was which for someone who has never been in trouble with the law before this made me feel so much better having him explain all the meaning behind what the judge was saying which sounded so foreign to me. I can’t recommend them more to anyone. So grateful to them!"

"I just finished my first and last DUI, and I hired them. They were very helpful in my case, and they know their stuff. If you need a good lawyer, I would reach out to them."

"Just a note of sincere and heartfelt gratitude to James Bates and his staff for guiding me through some very rough legal waters. This is a group of highly professional, skilled, and attentive professionals. Special acknowledgement to Ally for keeping me apprised of scheduling changes, Megan for talking me down from the ledge in our many phone conversations and working to assure me that things would work out, and John whose skill as a litigator can not be overestimated. Grateful to all, Brian Bradford"
