Unprofessional, Unresponsive, and Unethical - Avoid at All Costs…read more​If you are looking for a law firm that prioritizes media appearances over client representation, look no further. My experience with this firm was nothing short of a disaster. ​The level of negligence regarding communication is staggering. I made multiple attempts to reach my legal team, only to be met with total silence or inexcusable delays. It is clear that their time is spent chasing "fame" through interviews regarding past high-profile losses rather than focusing on the active cases of the people currently paying their bills. ​Most alarmingly, this firm demonstrated a complete disregard for attorney-client ethics by entertaining deals with the judge and prosecution without consulting me first. A law firm that makes life-altering decisions behind a client's back is a firm that cannot be trusted. ​With 100% certainty, I would never hire this firm again. In my honest opinion, you would receive more competent, dedicated, and ethical representation from a public defender. Do not waste your money on this "worthless" practice; they are far more interested in their own PR and your money rather than your legal rights.

After asking around for recommendations from friends, Mr. Middlebrook was repeatedly and highly recommended. After my initial call and consultation with Richard Middlebrook and his very respectful and knowledgeable assistants my fears were drastically eased and my knowledge of the situation that I had found myself in was greatly improved. At every step of the process Mr. Middlebrook and his staff were on point and completely exceeded my expectations. I never once had to appear in court because Mr. Middlebrook would appear on my behalf. Anytime I called his office, his staff took the time to answer any and all of my questions. Most of the time his office to the initiative to call or email me with updates with my case. With Mr. Middlebrook's efforts the results of my case were exceptional and better than I could have hoped for. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Richard Middlebrook and his magnificent staff to handle any case involving a DUI !! The first and biggest mistake someone could make with their case would be to not consult Middlebrook and Associates!

Found this place after someone I know got a ticket in the Los Banos area and so glad we went with…read morethem because it was such a stress-free process. It was the first time I helped out with hiring a traffic lawyer so I can't really comment on the pricing. But considering that the fine costs way more, I think their pricing is fair for peace of mind since a court appearance was required and we lived 200+ miles away. All communication was through email or phone and they provided lots of updates when they showed up to court. Though we didn't get the results we wanted, they still were able to give the best possible outcome without having anything show up on the record. That was the ultimate goal anyway. Only reason why we didn't give a 5 star was because we thought communication through email could be a little better. Every time we sent an email, we would get little to no response unless we called to follow up. Other than that, I still highly recommend them especially if you get a ticket in the Los Banos/Merced area!

Hands down a great attorney who specializes in criminal cases but has been helpful to me on other…read moretypes of cases. He is intelligent with a good sense of humor. He is a man of faith but does not push it on his clients or friends but is not above asking if you would like to pray before beginning a meeting. If not then he moves on. He is respected by colleagues and opposing attorneys alike. It is obvious that judges on the bench respect him as well which goes to prove that he is honest and has a high moral standard. He wins verdicts but also makes good deals for his clients when they do not want to go to trial. The deals he negotiates are fair and accurate for the filed charges. I think his greatest quality second only to his knowledge of the law down to minor details is that he is a humble man which seems to be a rarity among many who are in this profession.
