I was arrested and charged with an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon felony in Nov. 2021…read more Now an older man, had raised a good family, having no criminal background, built a successful, well known local/statewide business, I was literally terrified. I had contacted and met with 3 of the most recommended, lawyers in Smith County. But I wasn't convinced that they truly had my back in this case. Frustrated, I read Erick Platten's web page bio and knew he seemed to have a strategic, well thought out plan of attack/defense mentality. I contacted him the day before my arraignment to appear in court. He said, man you have an emergency situation, I can be there to represent you in court tomorrow. So I rolled dice with Erick for my future, paid him over the phone and met him the next day in court for the first time. The judge, and DA presented the charges to us for the first time to review. They looked really incriminating but I knew they were not fact. Erick absolutely knew how to handle it and put my wife, the only witness/victim on the stand to testify right there. Later I found out that allowing us to put a witness on the stand in arraignment is very rare. Calling up witnesses usually comes later or in a trial. Erick showed up that day with a let's get this dismissed today mentality. But the DA here rarely goes down easy, Erick stated this over and over during our talks. He stated; "they know me WELL and they know they better have their facts straight, I'm in this to win this for you". Erick holds his law cards close to his chest (like a seasoned poker champion) and plays them at exactly the right time. I found that the Smith County DA has an everyone is guilty as charged, hang-em-high mentality no matter how clean of a life you have led in the past many years of life. They do NOT care who's life they ruin, guilty or not! I had raised a large, loving productive family and we are big local supporters of many charities. I was a good citizen! They don't care about that Erick explained. They will indict a "Ham Sandwich"! And with no review of the evidence they had planned to do just that. Until Erick played a few of his cards and convinced them not to indict me the day before they were going to go before the Grand Jury. Just the way they do things in a Grand Jury hearing ought to be illegal, we don't have the right to be there to defend ourselves. They roll the cases through, indict you, then it's trial by jury time all right in front of my peers in our town of Tyler. They could ruin a person's reputation even if their not convicted in trial. From the very beginning Erick's mission was to get ALL charges dropped, PERIOD! No plea bargain, no probation, Erick would have none of this and knew EXACTLY how to play the legal game for my life and future. I must admit, I got very anxious many times. I would call and or text Erick and his calming response was immediate!!!! He always stated, trust me, I have YOUR back, don't worry about this! And I must say he did. In only 5 months he got this dismissed, no hearing, no more fines, the entire nightmare of facing a potential sentence from minimum 2 years - 20 maximum was over. Just like that it was over. Erick had his timing, defense negotiations/strategies completed precisely and flawlessly and on my 63rd birthday it was completely over with a phone call. Erick has a great attitude, he's personable, he knows his job and he cares greatly about his clients future, We matter greatly to Mr. Platten! In business I have attorneys. But none quilt like Mr. Erick Platten...THANK YOU SIR!!!!! This man has the experience, the passion and I believe Erick is one of the GREATS of Defense law!

What started out as a simple and unjustified theft TICKET that I was trying to keep off my record…read moreby hiring Mr .Rubin has now landed me on probation for three months. This man will railroad you if given the opportunity and this is exactly what he did to me. I could have just paid the ticket and been done. Instead I paid this man three hundred dollars to fight this and keep it off my record. The results I got from this was not even a phone call I got an email from his secretary with the results of him going to court for me. Keep in mind this was a ticket. Now I'm on probation for three months, I owe the court over three hundred dollars and I was never asked if this was ok . He just tossed me under the buss because he didn't want to have to deal with arlington courts because they require him to be there in person and he can't do it from his office. Pure laziness. I'm in a far worse position now than i was before I hired this crook. If you have any sense keep looking DO NOT hire this man. You will regret it !!!!

Response to owner: Well no, because as you can see I've attached some screenshots that show that I reached out by phone after I didn't hear back to my web response to the yelp request where you accepted. I was eager to get going with an attorney and you were the first to respond and say that you could help whereas other attorneys were hesitant to work in Euless but open and waiting for my response. So I wanted to connect with you because you were first and because time is of the essence. I think I spoke with someone at your office twice and the second time she took detailed information and said she was going to call each of the cities and get back to me and then when I didn't hear back I called and followed up and no one ever called back. I used the Yelp feature where it's going to send it out to other providers as well but I specifically requested it from you first. So to accept online and then to go further and have a conversation with me and then not return my calls, not only leaves me waiting but it also leaves the other attorneys waiting because I'm not sure what's going on if you're taking it or not. And since you haven't even called me back since Tuesday and it's now Friday I'm not really sure what your argument is. Hence this review. They responded and said that they were happy to help me and then when I gave them information that was in the original inquiry about the two cities I have expired registration tickets out of they never got back to me even though I left several messages.

HIGH ALERT Update:…read moreMy insurance company reviewed my records and identified a traffic ticket that Shawn Storey was supposed to dismiss. However, the ticket was not dismissed as promised. I was initially confused, and when I contacted my insurance, they advised me to check with LexisNexis for legal records. Upon doing so, I confirmed that it was the same unresolved ticket. As a result, my insurance premiums have increased by $120 per month, a rate that will remain for the next 5 to 7 years. This amounts to an additional $1440 annually and a total of $7200 over five years. Shawn Storey failed to perform the required legal work, and in a struggling economy, I am burdened with an extra $120 each month. I advise others to steer clear of attorneys who make false promises regarding dismissals or legal outcomes. I plan to contact him again to discuss this matter and seek a resolution. Update: Despite multiple attempts, he has not returned my phone calls as we speak.
