Great group of people. Managed to get me a favorable outcome from a very bad situation. I would highly recommend this firm if you have legal troubles. Top notch performance!!
So thankful I chose this team to represent me. They’re the best, hands down. Nathan Hitchcock proved my innocence not once but TWICE, including a trial by jury. I have a family in law enforcement who told me “Bill Bly and his team are the best. If I would recommend anyone, it would be them.”
Great firm to have in your corner for both criminal and family law matters. Worked extensively with both managing partner Bill Bly and attorney Tom Richard, both were valuable assets to me. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend. Caught an OUI charge while working in Maine as an out-of-state employee. Without details, all odds were stacked against me. I was completely shocked to when jury levied a not guilty.
I couldn’t have asked for a more positive experience! Everyone I spoke with or worked with was incredibly understanding and compassionate. I was dealing with a very difficult matter and Attorney Stone was so kind and caring in a time that was very hard. I have never had such a great experience with an attorney and couldn’t recommend them more! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!!!!
After being arrested for a second OUI and other serious/felony charges, I came to Bill and his team for help. He took the time to listen to what I had to say, took notes, and explained to me the seriousness of the charges I was facing and possible outcomes. However, despite how hopeless the situation appeared to be, he believed something could be done and, most importantly, he and his team were willing to help. The whole Maine Criminal Defense group was very attentive, meticulous, and organized in their approach. Bill is great at setting the right expectations from the start. He tells the truth and stays connected to reality. It almost reminded me of the Stockdale paradox where you trust that in the end, everything will be ok, but he makes sure that you still understand the reality of your current situation. He spoke clearly, outlined the process, proposed solutions, and was always open to suggestions from me or members of my family. I was impressed with his ability to think on his feet and come up with brilliant plans that somehow yielded results beyond my own expectations (no felony charges). The Maine Criminal Defense team was always available and prompt to answer any questions. They were always cheerful, polite, caring, and involved. They have a sense of purpose, which appears to be to ensure the best possible outcome for their clients. That’s exactly what they’ve delivered in my case. I highly recommend the Maine Criminal Defense team to anyone who has any legal issues and/or has lost hope. You will find that this is one of the best decisions you’ve ever made. Your case will be in good hands!!! Many Thanks to Bill and the entire Maine Criminal Defense team for all your help!
