Throughout this entire process, Connie's words proved correct. With Jim's command for the English language, he articulated my position with precision. From my perspective, Jim's debate and litigation skills are second to none. It is my belief that the legal community respects him for his courteous nature, honesty, intelligence, and professionalism. I owe both a debt of gratitude.

Attorney Stephanie Wong and her law firm are exceptionally above the rest with knowledge and…read moreexpertise. Her experience and background as a prosecutor and now a defense attorney are invaluable to have on your side. Her communication throughout my case was outstanding, responding to phone calls and emails within a few minutes.

After she got the money upfront, she did the absolute minimum. Extremely difficult to get a hold of, or get a call back.

When looking for a great criminal defense attorney look no further than John Prior and The Prior…read moreLaw Firm. I am a current client and had a case brought against me. It was a very sensitive case that involved alleged sexual abuse. John took my case and made it his top priority. He and his staff took the time to investigate the allegations against me as well as put in countless hours of case law review to counter what the state had presented as evidence. Johns commitment with the case including all the motions filed, the endless number of phone conversations we had as well as in office visits going over my case were well woth it in the end. The result of the outcome decided by a jury of 12 was a Verdict of NOT GUILTY. In my mind you will not find a more dedicated attorney to represent an individual and go out of their way to help. The sacrifices his family had to endure while he prepared for trial were countless. This included his weekends, late nights and early morning preperations he spent away from them to work on my case. I thank them deeply for their sacrifice. Once again I would highly recommend John Prior as your attorney. Thanks again for your services John! Chris Bowling

I hired Maureen in Jan to do a case review for a post-conviction for my boyfriend. she charged me 7500 just for the review. I assume she was a good Atty from her reviews. This is farthest from the truth. I asked three questions that were important to me. How long will this review take? will she get the transcripts? and how will you handle his upcoming court date? Her reply was it will take approximately 6 mo. she will get his transcripts and will make an appearance on his behalf. As of 4/24/22 nothing has been done!! NO transcripts. (how can u review if you don't have the facts!!) She called me the day before his court date to ask what this was regarding. (as an atty u cant figure this out} she informed me that she couldn't go because she is still reviewing his case. Remember Maureen didn't say any of this when I asked! no actions have been taken she claims she thought her team was on it. Maureen also sends you highlights of your conversations but I noticed that anything that you have an issue with she doesn't address it, in the notes she sends you. only things that she assumes are going well. For the money that I have paid I expect more, I have since fired Maureen and awaiting my refund of 7500. she stated that she has to charge for her time. I am thinking timing doing what? lying!! I will definitely be filing a complaint with the bar association/ supreme court for her dishonest behavior. There is a ton more but just to give you a glimpse of her character. RUN When you see The office of Maureen Williams you will not regret it!!
