Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I start? These past two months have been the most challenging I have faced. Imagine yourself waking up tomorrow and everything you knew was upside down. That is what happened to me. Prior to reaching Speights, I contacted two other attorneys and was awaiting a call back when I found Speights. At 4 p.m. on a Friday I contacted Speights and spoke with attorney David Holmes and investigator Greg Stepp. If you are reading this, you know that getting anyone to answer on a Friday afternoon is almost impossible. David and Greg gave me much needed reassurance regarding a criminal case. By the end of the conversation I was scheduled for an appointment the following Tuesday with Holly Holliman on a separate civil matter. Tuesday I met with Holly and Samantha Burnette. Samantha and Holly were professional and extremely sympathetic to my situation. After a few tears on my part, a plan of action was put in place and a financial plan was established to assist me. I learned the first half of my case, the alleged criminal case, was dismissed. That in of itself is a huge burden lifted from me. The team I have of Holly, Samantha, Greg, and David has been a blessing. Seeing the group work as a cohesive unit is reassuring. Especially when a person feels as if the cards have been stacked against them. I hope whoever reads this gives Speights Law at the very least consideration in their own legal hardship.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was completely intimidated by the divorce process and overwhelmed at the thought of being a single mother with three children under 9. I felt scared, isolated, and was drowning in a very toxic marriage that no one knew about. Rachel Clark was my life preserver. From my first phone call with her I felt heard and supported. Rachel and her team go above and beyond to fight for you. Carla helped me understand the process from start to finish and walked me through all the complicated documents I had to fill out. Watching Rachel in court is like watching Marshawn Lynch’s highlight reel. She’s a beast running back when it comes to litigation. I watched her rush for 300 yards in court today and do it without breaking a sweat - and in heels. She’s been an advocate for me from start to finish. Do your future self a favor and hire her. She’s the absolute best attorney out there and I wouldn't have the peace I have today if it wasn’t for her help.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Attorney William Hunter is the best!!! We had a case out of Cherokee County and the victim was the biggest liar, accusing my husband of many things he didnt do. Mr. HUNTER really sold how good a great of a lawyer is at trial. He ate the prosecutor for breakfast along with the officer that testified for breakfast and the victim for breakfast. He is a true true best lawyer we ever had and we thank you for getting my husband out of something that he never did. In Cherokee County, iit could’ve went the other way really quick, Knowing their history, no matter the truth or not. They love giving guilty verdicts with minimal evidence or no evidence. Thanks, Attorney Hunter. If you ever get in trouble Cherokee County or any other county give Attorney Hunter a call. You won’t find a better attorney and you wrote for sure be disappointed with the outcome. Speights Law #1 Speights Law number one

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We reached out to Speights Law for an adult adoption case. We told them our only desire was to have the adoption completed before Father's day of this year. Not only was this completed. It was the most seamless process for such a large life event for our family. I will recommend Rachel and Carla EVERY DAY! Thank you Speights Law for your care, understanding, and professionalism throughout the entire process.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you need an attorney for just about anything, this is the place. My experience is probably the best I could have imagined. Worth every penny! I worked mostly with David and Holly, each for separate issues, and I was not disappointed. David was so easy to work with and was very understanding of my situation. He was always able to get an answer to me fairly quick. Holly was just as easy, and very thorough. I will never go to another firm. Speights Law in general was always so good to me when I was in their office. The paras, Gloria especially, are quick to respond, and would provide as much detail as possible. Dru was a joy to work with, and even though he's on the financial side of things, that's not sarcasm. He was always understanding and would help with any financial questions surrounding my account. Don't go anywhere else. These guys are the best, and you deserve the best.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t thank David Holmes enough for his outstanding representation. (Speights Law) He handled my case with professionalism, confidence, and genuine care from start to finish. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, my charges were completely dropped. David made a stressful situation feel manageable and kept me informed every step of the way. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly knows what he’s doing and fights for his clients, I highly recommend David Holmes. I’m incredibly grateful for his help and professionalism. Highly recommend! (((Thank you for everything Speights Law!))) I wholeheartedly recommend David Holmes. Thank you for everything—you made a life‑changing difference for me.
