I have had the pleasure of dealing with Mr. Joey Turner. I have spent a lot of time talking and working through our case with him. There have been a lot of twists and turns and he has been there through each of them. He has been a voice of reason and knowledge with every curve ball we have been thrown. We have multiple avenues of communication with him and each question or concern has been addressed. Our case has not been an easy one by any stretch of the imagination and is still ongoing. His willingness to help his clients is something you do not see every day anymore. He is only a phone call, text, or email away when he is needed. His name is the first I would recommend to anyone needing legal help. In a legal world, things are overwhelming. He is able to bring some calm to that raging storm. With everything I have experienced thus far, if the need ever arises again for his services, I would not hesitate in calling in his cavalry.

Mr. Turner has exceeded all of my expectations and within a time frame I didn’t even know was possible. He digs into every detail and goes above and beyond to resolve the issues you are facing. I have such a weight lifted off of me, i can go back to my normal life and i have no worries. He was able to get my case expunged to where my prior situation will not affect me in any way in the future. He surely has southern charm and makes you feel secure in knowing he will take the very best care of you, and he does exactly that. I have no regrets! I would definitely refer anyone who is dealing with a criminal background to Joey. Thank you for all you have done!

I hired Mr Turner last year after having four past DUI's. I have a very good job that was in jeopardy as well as my own business that requires me to have a valid driver's license. Mr. Turner was very helpful from the beginning. He recognized and thanked me for my military service and treated me with respect! He reassured me throughout the trial and I came away a splendid outcome! I highly recommend Mr. Turner to anyone seeking help with a DUI ! I think he's the BEST attorney in the area! Thank you again sir for a job well done!

Mr. Turner has went above and beyond for me during my court case. I was worried when I found out the severity of my case but as soon as I talked to Mr. Turner, I knew right away that I was in good hands and would be represented the best that I possibly could be. I am very greatful for Mr. Turner as he has done everything he possibly could to make sure that this has been as easy as it possibly could for me. Thank you!!!!

Mr Turner is a prime choice recommendation for a lawyer, he was great team member for my personal legal problems. Always informed of the current situation and helpful with a pleasant attitude. He worked with me through thick and thin in my legal battle. His smile and happy demeanor were a relief and a constant moral builder about my case. He was professional in and out of court as well. I'd recommend his services for anyone needing legal assistance in his area over anyone else. As a former prosecutor he understands the system and generally wants to help his clients without gaslighting them or treating them as just another payday. Great guy and lawyer!

Do not hire Joey Turner. He takes your money and does nothing to help with your case. I paid him and he promised my son would be home in 2-6 months. Well two years later he still has my retainer and will not refund me. I fired him after I emailed him and asked the status on my son's case. He said he was waiting to hear from the parole board. Little did he know I contacted the parole board. Joey never inquired about my son. Little did Joey know, I emailed him once a week for a month asking about my son's status. He either did not reply or when he did it was the same story. I had my son home with help from the prison for two months while Joey was saying he was still waiting to meet with my son at prison and to meet with parole officers for a hearing. Don't waste your time or money on him. I have reported him to the Bar association. They are helping me get my case together against Joey Turner to get all my money refunded from him. Sorry liar good luck getting a hold of him if you have already hired him.

Me and my father have been dealing with this man for 2 whole years ago and he hasn’t done anything for us ,we had to bring in another lawyer just to help us out . I would not recommend anyone to him unless you would want to wait months for him to give a call back or when you have money to give him upfront

The Turner Firm is amazing! Mr. Turner has went above and beyond to help with my husband's case. He has called us back every time we have called. Yes maybe not always right away, but he is a lawyer and he is not supposed to be sitting right beside the phone all the time. He is a busy man but he gets the job done. We could not afford to pay the fee right up front so he worked with us. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a good attorney! Thanks for the hard work Mr. Turner.

Well mr turner is a lawyer so yea its hard to get in touch with him alot. There were times where he didnt return my call or he was in another court room while my case was going on in another court room and we would have a continuous court date and get passed.but when he did get time to address my case in a trial setting up against judge penny freesman he did a great job.i had felony weapon charge hanging over my head and with the evidence i provided mr turner with he showed the prosecutors and the judge that the charges were because of a scorned relationship and now i can say i dont have a felony conviction on my record i can legally posses and purchase firearms because of mr turner and im thankful and grateful everything worked out in my favor mr turner provided me a great service and i would recomend him and his services to others as well.

Joey Turner did a few things after I paid him $2000.00 to handle my case. Ingore many,many calls and emails I made and sent to him .Lie to me over and over about what he has done to resolve things. Lie,Lie and to this day after I contacted the bar about this matter he still does nothing but lie about things. The few times I did talk to this so called lawyer, I would hear "MAYBE NEXT WEEK" but his next week for something to be resolved has never came. Im disgusted how ive been cheated by J.Turner and I hope that he gets his license to practice law snatched and never gets the chance to lie and cheat people out of their money.

Joey is a great attorney and I would definitely recommend him to clients. He answered any questions that I had, always personally got back to me with answers and information, and he resolved/handled all issues. He is such a busy man yet handles each and every client and case personally. Joey will always be my first call when dealing with legal issues!

Would NEVER return a call or email....EVER!! Didn't show up for court or would reschedule without telling anybody. We found out later he did NO work on my husbands case or filed anything at all with the clerk of courts. Never did what he said he was going to do. Made us feel like he had good news for us and never followed through on anything. Had to pay fines for things he said he handled. Horrible!! Would not recommend at all.

Wouldn't let me respond to your comment. I tried to pay you several times and you would not let me. It would take WEEKS to get you on the phone or answer an email.

Joey helped me out with a person trying to pin criminal charges on me. He listened to my concern and got my case dismissed. I did not have to keep traveling to savannah when my court date kept getting pushed back which was a life saver because I live in Atlanta. Thank you Joey! You can’t go wrong with having Joey as your lawyer.

Joey is my go to for any potential legal needs I may have. He has been instrumental in keeping me protected no matter the scenario. He is quick to respond and will explain the legalities and strategies in lament terms. His positivity and client first initiatives set him apart from the standard torch bearers who will charge you at any opportunity

Joey was very thorough and explained everything in terms that could be understood. Walked our family, step-by-step, through each judicial process that came along, too. I have recommended him to a couple other people I know personally who were in need of a lawyer.

I would highly recommend Joey Turner and his services to anyone who wants the job done well. All of my emails were quickly responded to and my calls, as well as messages were answered fast. While it could have easily been a huge headache, he made the entire process a breeze and I couldn’t have been happier with my experience. Starting the moment the consultation (which is free) begun the entire ordeal was as stress free as could be and I felt confident and at ease knowing my case was in good hands. I was glad to have such a determined and steady handed attorney representing me and I would gladly suggest his services to anyone in need of them.

Ok, You Got A Problem...You Get In Some Trouble...You Go See A Few Attorneys; Almost Everyone You See Hits You With This Scenario; “Well, After Reviewing The Case Information And Talking To You, You Looking At Some Real Problems...It’s Not Good, But I Can Talk To A Few People In The DA’s Office And Believe We Can Get This Resolved For You. But, I’m Gonna Need 5-10 K Retainer To Get Started”! They Always Preach Glom And Doom...Make It Sound Worse Than It Is, To Get Their Money...

Joey Turner, Will Tell You The Honest Truth; No Exaggerated Crisis...If He Says He Can Solve The Problem, He Does...No BS, No Games, Just Gets It Done! I Put My Life In His Hands; And He Didn’t Let Me Down! No Jail, No Fines...Problem Solved!

I Had 6 Attorneys Tell Me I Was Going To Have To Do Serious Time; And They All Wanted Crazy Fees/Retainers!

Mr. Turner Worked With Me On The Fees And Was Very Reasonable! Plus He Got Results!

Thank You Mr. Turner; Burden Lifted...I Got My Life Back!

Below average lawyer, with a horrible follow-up game! Once the case is closed good luck getting in touch with him about anything related to the case. I've attempted to get in contact with this guy a few times in the last few weeks and still have not received a return phone call or the information I requested. I even had to threaten to drop him as my lawyer prior to my case being closed in order to get a timely return phone call. His care and concern are obviously not genuine. If you're looking for just a "run of the mill" lawyer, Joey is your guy! If you want a Excellent lawyer give Larry Chisolm a call, you won't be disappointed, I wish I would have called him first. Thanks for everything Joey!

My husband was in jail about a year ago now. We paid a deposit for him to start working on the case. He missed all 3 court hearings, and made it impossible to get ahold of him. Everything he has said was a lie. Literally everything. Avoid using Joey Turner.

I am completely blown away. My daughter was contacted by Mr. Turner when her boyfriend got in what we believed would be a "definite" time serving situation. We are from SC so we knew nothing about anything in the state of Georgia. The call from Mr. Turner was beyond a blessing-more like a miracle. Felonies were dropped to misdemeanors. Everything was explained going forward. I have never met you Mr. Turner but I wanted to Thank You from the bottom of my heart for all you did.

Joey was absolutely a pleasing to my fiancé. We are from South Carolina but my fiancé was hit with charges in Savannah. I called so many attorneys none which were affordable and then I prayed about it and within a few hours I received a message from Joey saying he could help which was an understatement. My fiancé was tagged with 2 felonies and misdemeanors and the felonies were looking at some time and he would be away from us. Today Joey got all charges reduced even the felonies to misdemeanors and my fiancé will be home shortly. Joey is an amazing attorney and I highly recommend him to anyone in need not only is he affordable but he knows what he is doing. Thank you so much Joey.

My case was resolved as he said it would be. Charges got dropped and just ended up paying a fine. Joey Turner was informative and helped me get the case resolved, but I gave 3 stars because of lack of communication. It was very hard to get a hold of him even sending emails, and texts and calls for weeks on end. Also not knowing when I need to be in court until the day before or a few days before the day (I live 4 hours away and court always starts at 9) the communication could have been better but overall, he got my case resolved and it’s behind me so I will say there were PROS and CONS, retainer fee was 2K which is average for a good lawyer and like I said, I am HAPPY and satisfied with the outcome!

I am a so called client of this man I have paid him my money and thats basically it I don't get a call back he's always busy my case was promised to be resolved in no more than 90 day and yet I can't even talk to the man that took my money honestly if you have money to just waste go ahead and give it to him he will gladly take it I find it unfair I am a United States Marine and I serve my country proudly and for a man to do what he is doing is just not right I'm sure he will call when he sees this cause he cares about his reviews but when he calls there will be no update just him telling me he's sorry about the communication issue even Tho I call twice a day and leave a message with his friendly staff and that he's still waiting on a call that he somehow hasn't gotten in over two months now I feel like if he couldn't help me then he shouldn't have taken my money but in the end that's what it's all about with this nice guy
***Update*** it's been over 4 months since the last time I've heard from this man nothing has been done at all he still ignores text calls and messages I've literally left over 100 messages with him this is a poor excuse for an attorney if you want a true review this is one upon me getting this attorney he assured me this matter would be resolved in 90 we are now 2 months away from it being a year and I've literally spoke with him 4 times this is the reality of hiring this man nothing gets done but he will happily give you a call to get your money after he is paid thats is. The reviews speak for themselves this many people can't be just making it up do not I repeat do not waste your money on this man again I'm a Marine I serve my country I work well over 12hrs a day and yet I find time to call him multiple time to just be ignored so he can miss me with I've been busy it's been way to much time (update)11262019 it's been over a year now and still nothing no call back no email to text If you are reading this I wouldn't waste my time or money on this guy he knows he is a waste I didn't even have a case that's going to court I just simply needed to see if the outcome could be changed he assured me it could in the long term of 90 days it's been over 425 days now so that should speak to what kind of attorney this is
Feb3,2020 still no information at all if you're reading this you can clearly see what you will get if you hire this guy. Save yourself the money, time, and mental strain. I will leave another update in a couple months by then I'm sure I'll still have no response from my so called attorney.

I hired Joey on March 22,2019! He was supposed to remove a block off my license and he charged me 1000 dollars, paid in full and it’s May 7th today and I haven’t heard from him. I tried calling him daily, but his secretary is trained to say he’s in court every time I call. You don’t have that many clients to be in court everyday. I work hard for my money and I be darn if I just give you my money. DO NOT HIRE JOEY TURNER. He will answer your call to take a payment but after that, you can forget about hearing from him.

Update 01/27/20 still haven’t heard from him. It’s not right and he denied returning my money after my bank tried numerous attempts. It’s ok tho!!

Dont waste time or money on this person! Impossible to get ahold of (sometimes taking a month or more to respond to voicemails/emails) and was late to every court hearing I had. He has an out of state answering service that is trained to tell you he is in court and will forward your message, but he wont get back to you.

My family had hired Mr.Joey Turner he has reasonable fees. Yes he is hard to reach at times but he is a busy hard working lawyer and he has responded to my emails in a timely manner and has showed up to court as expected. He is very understanding and knows what he is talking about. He was able to get the case solved that's a big plus for our family. so I recommend him to anyone.

Update As of 11/10/2019... we still have not received our refund for the retainer. He actually called the day after he was emailed and certified mailed a client termination letter and only on that day did he see the client but was already terminated at that time, which he knew prior to going to visit. It took over 10 days to speak with his client after numerous calls , texts and emails by the way he only did after the client attorney relationship was terminated. He only filed a generic bond motion, which he never discussed with his client at the time. The retainer was requested and we are still waiting for the refund.

He was hired to simply get a plea and he took a$1000 retainer never once visited his client only put in an order of appearance and a bond order that was never asked for and went MIA......never answers calls only has a service that gives general replies.....He lies tells clients and families he is doing one thing and completely goes missing and doesnt answer phone calls ...Do not hire , not recommended.

Joey Turner—strong defense lawyer hands up, no doubt! Working with Mr. Turner was a lifetime experience for my family. He is impressive in court, well knowledgeable and hardworking to get the best outcome. If I could rate Joey a 10 star, I would without any hesitation. I would strongly recommend him for any legal assistance. Joey, my family and I are greatly appreciative of your hardworking and dedication.

Joey turner will take your money and leave you in a complete bind! DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT waste your time, money, energy and sanity! I did just like you and read the reviews and it was pretty 50/50. The only reason I chose him was to save myself money.If I knew then what I know now, I would have paid the extra money! I could have made out better representing myself or even just going with a public defender! I literally paid Joey to just stand there in court. He is a liar, unreliable, contradicting and will cause you stress!!! He is NEVER available! I should have known when he said that he did everything himself (no assistant). He has an answering service (multiple people) and they always say that he is in court. I have sent him text messages, e-mailed him, called him and it would take literally weeks to hear back from him, if at all. I received probation as part of my punishment, but Joey assured me that he could work to get me off in 6 months if I completed everything that was expected of me and paid my fines off. Well here I am, 9 months in and still on probation. I have e-mails and text messages where he would tell me one thing and when I did finally speak to him on the phone, he would say something completely different! If you want to literally throw away your money, receive no help, be stressed and spend time chasing somebody around, then he is your man. If I could have not rated him at all to post this review, then he would not have even received 1 star! I WOULD NEVER EVER RECOMMEND HIM! EVER!

Super patient and super friendly. Met me in my home in ten minutes time, which is awesome because I have a hellish schedule, and gave a fair, firm price to handle any and all court appearances, which turned out to be the only appearance needed, never even had to go to court. Simple, fast, courteous treatment and came through on his word!!!

Do not, I repeat, do not hire this attorney. I was unfortunate enough to get into some serious legal trouble over a year ago, hired this man and will regret it for the rest of my life. We paid him over 9k in total and received nothing but mediocre legal advice, subpar representation, and a COMPLETE lack of any professional respect for me as a client. He put forth absolutely no effort to help resolve my case in a timely manner, ignored my repeated requests for a bond hearing and in fact urged me to take a plea deal of 90 days in a probation detention camp in addition to pleading guilty to a felony regardless of the facts of the case. He never requested the discovery from the DA and that was after 8 months of these charges pending against me. Had he requested the discovery he would have known the state’s case against me was completely circumstantial and lacking ANY hard evidence whatsoever. Not only is he notorious for his refusal to return calls, text messages, voice messages and emails but he was at least an hour and sometime 2 hours late to nearly every court appearance I had, of which there were over 7. At one point an Effingham County judge disparaged him in open court for his consistently late appearances and often flat out refusal to even show up regardless of the amount of time his clients were scheduled on the docket. He talks a great game upon his initial consultation but once you’ve paid him in full he becomes an elusiveness leprechaun your desperate to get in touch with during the worst time of your life and when you finally catch him he smiles and pretends he was there all along. We ended up firing him without even requesting a refund and found a new attorney who took his job and me as his client seriously. BEWARE Joey Turner was the biggest nightmare of all. Don’t be fooled by the four stars you see, do your homework and read the reviews, you will see a clear pattern of behavior listed by Joey’s real clients.

“My family and I was represented better than we could have ever imagined by Attorney Joey Turner. We had a very complex and complicated legal situation that needed to be untwisted. Attorney Turner took on our case and understood immediately how to tackle and resolve the bogus legal matter. Our opinions were valued and our doubts were always reassured. Our nerves were calmed and the process was always explained. Attorney Turner fought hard for us and he went above and beyond and did everything he could to ensure a great outcome. We couldn't have asked for a better law firm or attorney. Thanks guys!!!”

Was my first time using a lawyer and he did fantastic. Mr. turner handled my case and got me a better deal than I expected. I will reuse Mr. turners law firm in the future and would recommend to anyone in the area to use him as well.

Joey Turner is a great lawyer! He will work with u and take care of your case in the way that you feel it should be handled. Yes there may be times when it can be hard to reach him but that is because everyone wants him to be their lawyer and he is in court alot but he does find ways to reach out to his clients even as busy as he gets. He is very trustworthy and understanding with his his clients legal needs. I will definitely hire him again if I ever need an attorney in the future!

DO NOT GET THIS LAWYER !!!! My friend & I hired him for a simply military case that he claimed was going to easy & going to be over with quick. We paid him upfront after he received his payment we only heard from him 2 times. I called his office everyday & every time his assistant would say he was in court every single day . He never returned none of our phone calls . He didn’t do anything to help our case he took our money & we haven’t heard for him since . Completely wasted our time & took our money !

I retained Mr. Turner for my son, who had been arrested on a no release warrant. My son’s court date was not for at least 6 weeks. Mr. Turner had my son’s release pending with in one week of retaining him. He did an excellent job, very professional, and affordable. I would highly recommend Mr. Turner. Thank you sir to you and your staff!

Mr. Turner got my assault charge dismissed without me ever having to step into a court room. I still can't believe it! He really wanted to know who I was and my situation. Plus his price beat anyone else I called for help . I will recommend to anyone at anytime!

Mr. Joey Turner had worked on my case for almost 4 years! And finally we got what we was trying to get. I got 5 years on probation! Versus 80 years behind bars.

Yes he is very hard to get ahold of but he will get back to you when he can. It just takes him time because he has a lot of cases.

He basically saved me from spending the rest of my life behind bars.

Love Joey! Very sweet guy and very professional! I really appreciated the fact that he actually cared and showed compassion without ever placing judgement or making me feel like an idiot when I had questions (like some others I had spoken with before finding Mr.Turner.) Instead, he took the time to talk to me,( not at me, )and always addressed any questions or concerns I had and actually explained things to me which was very comforting! Facing the unknown is always difficult but it's truly a blessing when you have someone in your corner going to bat for you that you can trust and count on to have your best interest in mind! Not only did we get great results in the end but we also gained a friendship! I would highly recommend Joey Turner to anyone seeking a professional attorney! You will not be disappointed! Thanks again Joey!

I retained Mr. Turner as an attorney when my husband was arrested for a probation violation. There is no bond for that charge so you can imagine my frustration when trying to get my husband out of jail. Within a week's span not only was Mr. Turner able to get him released on his own recognizance but get his probation terminated altogether! He always called me back if he missed my call or if he couldn't make it to give me a call back he was able to return my email within the same day. I would highly recommend Mr. Turner if you ever need a lawyer in Savannah. I can not thank him enough for helping my husband!

Retained in concert with my sister in law to represent my brother. Initial retainer quote was 5k, which swelled to 6.5k in one week.

The only thing this “lawyer” did was enter an order of appearance. He alleged he filed a motion for a bond hearing, he didn’t. No such filing exists. My brother sat in jail til the state failed to deliver an indictment within 90 days. He knew under the law my brother would be afforded bond in 90 days and so he pretended to work the case after collecting money from both me and my sister in law for his retainer.

Obviously my sister in law struggled with finances with her husband in jail. Mr. Turner was instructed to contact me if a monthly payment was missed, at which time I might step in the make the payment. Apparently payments were missed and I was never contacted. Mr. Turners excuse for not working the case was a “lack of payment” that could have been resolved with a phone call.

Mr. Turner, one month after my brothers release on bond, tried to convince him to take a plea deal after charging a trial level retainer. How an attorney goes from ready for trial to advising a plea agreement is beyond me. Further, Mr Turner alleged he had information regarding the other party to the case; it turns out this was impossible because MR TURNER NEVER FILED FOR DISCOVERY. Way to drop the ball Turner.

Mr. Turner fails to return calls and emails and does not keep abreast of events in his clients cases.

An indictment was handed down in October. Mr. Turner didn’t inform my brother that he had indeed been indicted, did not afford him notice of required court appearances and thus, my brother was handed a bench warrant for failure to appear. His attorney dropped the ball. If Mr. Turner had informed myself or my brother of the indictment, surrender would have been arranged and my brother could have stayed out on bond pending trial. Instead, due to Mr. Turners multiple failings, my brother was rearrested MONTHS later - a complete surprise - in front of his children. Further, he is now being denied bond, having been labeled a flight risk for failure to appear on a hearing he had NO NOTICE OF.

In brief, we paid a couple thousand dollars for an entry of appearance (approximately .5 billable hours) and one jail visit (approximately 1 billable hour if you’re feeling generous). This attorney ceased ALL communication within 60 days of receiving the initial payment and having not even worked enough billable hours to consume that payment. I have multiple emails and attempted phone calls with no response. Attorney does not send a monthly statement of billable hours.

He didn’t even file a withdrawal of appearance; the new attorney was forced to file a substitution of counsel. So after intentionally dropping the ball, he kept himself as the attorney of record for my brother while doing nothing with his case.

Client dumping is an ethics violation and if my money is not refunded, formal complaints with the State Bar as well as the ethics board will be forthcoming.

Joey NEVER returns any phone calls. His office staff is trained to tell you he is court. When he does call you he lies about every thing! Joey Turner does not even deserve one star! He is a horrible attorney!

Phenomenal!! ! Joey if I could give you 500 stars it would make me happy
The moment we met Joey his experience and confidence filled the huge space of doubt that we had in the unknown .His attitude and attention to our feelings was a wonderful relief. His coaching in preparation for our court appearance was excellent. He knew it was sensitive matter and reminded Us there is no wrong answer just the truth. I truly appreciate joeys aggression to fight for what is right. We won the Race!! With a Champion Horse! ! Thank you Joey for sharing your precious time and in turn giving our family the priceless peace to move forward. .

I have had Mr.Turner as my lawyer since July of 2017. For the first 3-4 months we had a rocky start with communication but Mr. Turner was able to see where there was an issue & corrected it, from then on we have been able to communicate & be on the same page for every court date & Mr.Turner has even helped in some of my legal issues that I didn’t hire him for. I didn’t get to experience much of the in-court expertise of Mr. Turner because most of my charges were dismissed due to the officer not coming to court to be a witness, but Mr. Turner had a full defense prepared that I trusted in to save me from a conviction if the officer did come. All in all I’m keeping Mr. Turner as my lawyer if I have any more troubles in GA (but I don’t plan on it, sorry Joey haha).

Joey turner is a very professional and knowledgeable attorney. He is politely aggressive on cases. I am so glad i found him to represent me. He communicated with me very well other then him being in court which is understandable and means hes doing his job well, met up with me a few times to go over the case then went to court with me and had a protective order with false allegations dismissed and referred me to a good divorce attorney. I highly recommend Joey Turner as an attorney criminal or civil. Thanks Joey!

If your looking for a great attorney then look no further. Joey Turner is truly amazing. He treats his clients with loyalty and respect. I have been his client for almost 2 years now and he has been nothing but kind and generous to my family and I. He will work with your budget and make sure you always get the best representation. Joey always made sure to call with any information or changes in a timely manner even when the information would come to him late he always made me aware. Joey is truly amazing to watch in the court room, he is very knowledgeable and he will get you the best outcome. I would highly recommend Joey Turner to anyone who needs legal representation. You will find that you will not only find he is a great attorney but also a very caring and kind person. Thank you for everything you have done for my family and I, we couldn't have asked for anyone better.

Mr Turner provided the results of a high caliber attorney such as Johnny Cocharon with O.J. Mr Turner took a seemingly losing situation and turned it around for the best possible outcome. As for the reviews stating that Mr. Turner not being readily available, I would rather have an attorney that is constantly in the face of the judge and the DA trying to make things happen rather than always on the phone with me telling me there are no changes. His methodology maybe unorthodox but his results are unquestionable. Mr. Turner is worth every penny and I would gladly have paid him more after the court decision if he asked for it.
