The Best Criminal Defense Lawyer in the Memphis Area

"It has been almost 30 years since I first sent a client who needed a criminal law attorney to Mark. I heard back from that client about what a great job Mark did for him. Since that time I have given his name to anyone who has asked for the name of the best criminal defense lawyer in the Memphis area. I have never heard anything but highest praise for Mark's work on their behalf. He is the one I would send a family member to if (heaven forbid) they ever needed a criminal law attorney." - John Anderson, Divorce Attorney

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In 2024, I was unexpectedly in need of assistance from an attorney. I googled, read reviews and found out about Jake Weatherford with McDaniel Law Firm. He was very prompt, professional, compassionate but straight forward. Whenever I had questions, I was able to get answers within a reasonable amount of time. He was present and firm during my entire process. I also appreciate that he fought for me and helped me understand what to expect next. I would highly recommend Jake with McDaniel Law Firm to anyone in need of a defense attorney.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The McDaniel Law firm team was quick to reach out and help me with my traffic ticket violation. Jake Weatherford got it dismissed at no cost and off my record. Janeth was great with communication and explaining the process leading up to my court date. Would recommend for anyone with a traffic citation!
