I called Melissa to inquire whether she could handle speeding tickets in Jackson County State…read moreCourt. She candidly admitted she was not immediately familiar with the county, but quickly looked it up, noted that it was approximately 90 minutes from her office, and confirmed that, as a licensed attorney in the state of Georgia, she would be able to represent me there. Afterward, I explained the details surrounding my ticket, and Melissa immediately began walking me through the options available to me. She thoroughly explained the potential legal implications, clarified legal terminology, and outlined the possible courses of action I could pursue. She was incredibly knowledgeable, informative, professional, and friendly throughout the conversation. What impressed me most was her honesty and integrity. While she offered her services should I choose to retain counsel, she also emphasized that this was something I could likely handle on my own and potentially avoid incurring attorney fees. She generously spent approximately 15 minutes consulting with me, reiterating the steps I should take and assuring me that if I was unsuccessful handling the matter independently, she would be more than happy to represent me. After speaking with eight different attorneys before finding Melissa, I was pleasantly surprised by how professional, courteous, and genuinely helpful she was. Based on my experience and first impressions alone, I would highly recommend Melissa. She is truly a rare gem.

Melissa Scheidel is the exact opposite of what I thought I would find when I first started my…read moresearch for a lawyer. I had gotten my 2nd DUI in 3 years and I felt completely hopeless. I am in my low 20s and I was working at a low-income job. I was referred to her through a friend in the criminal defense business. I had called around to other lawyers and law offices and they were condescending and only made me more nervous about the situation I was in. Melissa was the exact opposite. I believe her first words were, "Everything is going to be okay, don't worry." She was extremely thorough and I actually felt safer knowing she was on my side. She communicated everything to me in terms I could understand and kept me up to date and in control of my case. If at any point something would change (in my case or in her working situation) I would receive a phone call asking my thoughts about an issue before she would act. I'm not sure how any of you would feel about this, but I LOVED it. Not only did she have more experience than she had told me, she used all of it to benefit me the most. My case ended exactly as I chose for it to, and quickly, even though Melissa had assured me multiple times that she was willing to go the distance for me. Things you need to know: Melissa is hardworking and consistently did so for me. I was treated with respect. She was willing to work as hard as needed to make sure I was comfortable in my sentence. She was very relatable. On my second DUI I chose to end the court sessions early and my sentence was as follows: All the normal classes that are required for a DUI, a $500 fine, 40 hours community service, and probation (2 years..I chose two years instead of one) that would become nonreporting when I had finished all of the other requirements.

The Holloway Law group was excellent when addressing my case. Upon researching Mr. Holloway, I saw…read morethat he was an experienced professional with more than 20 years, and that showed through his tact and wit when handling my case. His consistent communication and his paralegal team efficiently notified me of what was going on every step of the way. Heather Hansard (the paralegal I worked closely with) was professional, kind, expedient, and more than willing to explain each part of the process and connect me with Mr. Holloway whenever necessary being that I had not experienced litigation before. In looking for representation, I felt seldom treated like a human and more so like a "problem child" or CRIMINAL who was asking for too much. Mind you I had never been in any legal trouble before! My case seemed like a far cry for help, and my wants were high, but my expectations were low, considering the odds stacked against my wants, but after over a year and a commitment to all of Mr. Holloway's suggestions, we managed to get the exact result I was looking for. I managed to turn a felony for possession of a level two uncontrolled substance, a DUI and four misdemeanor charges for disobeying a traffic control device, having no insurance, having no registration, and driving on the wrong side of the roa... into a SINGLE reckless driving ticket and keep my license. YES! HE'S GREAT AT WHAT HE DOES!! He himself will be just as honest as I am when stating that you can only be prepared for the best option available, and that may not be what you want, but he will diligently listen to you about your concerns and use his expertise to get you as close in the ballpark as he can, and in my case, that ballpark just happened to be my exact target objective. Again, he will be honest in telling you he can't guarantee you any specific result, but he surely will fight to get you the very best, communicate well, work diligently, and provide the best service he knows how. He prepared me to be realistic, but fought for me like he HIMSELF was hopeful. I explained to him that losing my license would be sacrificing my career and he met me where I was at with that fight and I will be forever grateful. But please do keep in mind. Every variable in every situation is subject to being different and also note that I stated I hadn't been in any legal trouble before which helped and worked to my advantage as well as the time I spent superseding what was asked of me and I also have no history of substance abuse. So, there will be a lot to consider from your personal perspective, but my testimony stands very still and strong that you cannot go wrong with Mr. Holloway and his staff.

In April of this year I found myself, unfortunately, in need of Mr.Holloway's professional…read moreservices: my experience with him and his Team was nothing short of outstanding. I interviewed four different attorneys in the Greater Atlanta Area before making a decision on who I wanted to represent me, and he was the clear choice. It took six months to come to resolution with my case and I couldn't have asked for a better outcome! I had three driving charges against me: two were thrown-out, the main charge was reduced, and the fines/terms were minimal. Things to know... 1) He is a 'strait-shooter' and will tell you like it is 2) His services are not cheap, nor are they the most expensive (I had a flexible payment plan, which was very helpful) 3) The Hollow Law Group is a great Team; Lea (paralegal) is awesome and kept me informed every step of he way! I HIGHLY recommend Mr.Holloway! Have a sit-down with him before you make a decision on who would like to represent you.
