"On December 17, 2021, I was accused of committing a crime I didn't do. I was slammed with 2 counts of Felony charges. I found Jennifer Speas to represent me. When I got to her office to meet her one-on- one, she was already prepared. She had analyzed my case and she was ready for a defense. She made a move to dismiss the charges but I had the most difficult prosecutor at that time so she refused to dismiss. Jenniferr was always ready for Trial because I insisted not to settle for any plea that would ruin my life. Jennifer also brought in another Defense Attorney who is equally good. She didn't charge me for it. She paid him from her retainer. She and the co-counsel were bent on defending me with everything they've got. They kept fighting and fighting for me. We started the first trial in December 2023 but the judge dismissed the jury on day 3 because the prosecutor kept hiding information from the defense. We were ready to start the second Trial on August 12, 2024. The new prosecutor dismissed the case on August 8, 2024. I highly recommend Jennifer Speas for your defense any day. Don't think about it. Just hire her. Thank you, O.O"

"Didn’t show up for court. She said “we can’t beat this” and was forced to plead guilty to take a very bad deal. Never returns calls."
