Tyler Friedson with Sinclair Law Firm is truly great to work with. I reached out on a Monday and…read morehad my consultation by that Wednesday, which was amazing since my case was time sensitive. From the start, I got quick responses, clear directions, and a lot of support. What stood out the most to me was how much Tyler genuinely cared about the kids involved. From day one, their wellbeing was clearly his top priority, and that never changed. In such a stressful situation, that meant everything to me and my family. Tyler walked me through everything step by step and made a really confusing and delicate situation much easier to understand. He was always quick to respond, return calls, and set up meetings when needed. He also fought hard to get exactly what we needed out of the case.  He's extremely knowledgeable about the law and pays attention to every detail. You can tell he has the experience and resources to help families get where they need to be. He gave honest advice and shared his professional opinion but always made sure I had the final say in every decision. Tyler stayed on top of everything and kept things moving. The office staff were also super helpful, friendly, and efficient. This has been one of the hardest things my family has gone through, but Sinclair made me feel comfortable and supported the whole way through. From day one you can tell that Tyler truly cares about his clients and their children. I'd definitely recommend Tyler and his team!  Reviews typically aren't my thing. but Tyler helped me through the most important situation of my life.

$10k retainer and she threw my case. I hired her in June. She told me to agree to permanent…read moreinjunction vs permanent restraining order for abusive ex, which benefited him. I met with her and 'my great friend that is the supervisor at CPS and hiring me gives you a personal 'in' at the organization.' My ex was required to get an ABEL evaluation that basically assesses your likelihood to be a predator. I, legally and morally, was supposed to give my side of what went on. She obstructed me, her own client from doing so. She had my husband's completed ABEL and psych eval in her hands Sept. 15 and told me point blank 'DO NOT CONTACT 'THE EVALUATOR YOURSELF, I WILL HANDLE IT' is what she told me repeatedly. She never contacted the police or the evaluator and she and the amicus both colluded to prevent me and my children our basic rights as humans on Earth. It gets even worse. The day of court with my ex, I go up to her office for what I think is prep. She sits me down and tells me he's getting unsupervised visitation. I ask how could that be possible when the predator evaluation wasn't even complete, to my knowledge. She said she and the other lawyers basically sat down and decided there wasn't enough to keep him from unsupervised (after they intentionally created 'not enough'). I was shattered in this moment. I thought I was walking in to a game plan and I walked into this, about 3 hours before court. She clasped her hands across from me and with a horribly empty look, watched me wail for minutes. She told me I didn't have to go to court and she could just answer/agree to things for me. I attended court that afternoon virtually, as I was too distraught to be inside of the court. I watched the amicus and judge congratulate her for her good work. Oh, my ex brought a courtroom full of people that morning and my lawyer didn't call a single witness or person to be be there for me/ with me. My lawyer never contacted any of my potential witnesses. My lawyer never told the judge anything from my side (which apparently is what they are supposed to do, I hear) so the judge, after getting new counsel, had never heard any of my allegations until after I fired her but she already threw the dynamite into my and my children's lives. $10k for a family law retainer, of an unemployed woman, fleeing child abuse and domestic violence, and to then do all of this to her, seemingly with spite or venom is unfathomable for me. The Tyler landscape for lawyers is bad, bad. Please research and research harder. She coasts on the name of Beau Sinclair. 'Sinclair is great IF they are on your side'

I knew right away, he's an old school, straight shooter- which I appreciate. In fact, he wants to get to know the people he's doing business with, face to face- not just over the phone. This is rare, these days. During my conversations with Charles, I learned that he genuinely cares about his clients. It's not an act, but sincere. I have yet to meet J. Chad Parker, but hope to, as I anticipate further business dealings with his firm. Overall, this was about as positive of an experience as one could ask for. Professional, and honest. Class acts!

I was arrested and charged with an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon felony in Nov. 2021…read more Now an older man, had raised a good family, having no criminal background, built a successful, well known local/statewide business, I was literally terrified. I had contacted and met with 3 of the most recommended, lawyers in Smith County. But I wasn't convinced that they truly had my back in this case. Frustrated, I read Erick Platten's web page bio and knew he seemed to have a strategic, well thought out plan of attack/defense mentality. I contacted him the day before my arraignment to appear in court. He said, man you have an emergency situation, I can be there to represent you in court tomorrow. So I rolled dice with Erick for my future, paid him over the phone and met him the next day in court for the first time. The judge, and DA presented the charges to us for the first time to review. They looked really incriminating but I knew they were not fact. Erick absolutely knew how to handle it and put my wife, the only witness/victim on the stand to testify right there. Later I found out that allowing us to put a witness on the stand in arraignment is very rare. Calling up witnesses usually comes later or in a trial. Erick showed up that day with a let's get this dismissed today mentality. But the DA here rarely goes down easy, Erick stated this over and over during our talks. He stated; "they know me WELL and they know they better have their facts straight, I'm in this to win this for you". Erick holds his law cards close to his chest (like a seasoned poker champion) and plays them at exactly the right time. I found that the Smith County DA has an everyone is guilty as charged, hang-em-high mentality no matter how clean of a life you have led in the past many years of life. They do NOT care who's life they ruin, guilty or not! I had raised a large, loving productive family and we are big local supporters of many charities. I was a good citizen! They don't care about that Erick explained. They will indict a "Ham Sandwich"! And with no review of the evidence they had planned to do just that. Until Erick played a few of his cards and convinced them not to indict me the day before they were going to go before the Grand Jury. Just the way they do things in a Grand Jury hearing ought to be illegal, we don't have the right to be there to defend ourselves. They roll the cases through, indict you, then it's trial by jury time all right in front of my peers in our town of Tyler. They could ruin a person's reputation even if their not convicted in trial. From the very beginning Erick's mission was to get ALL charges dropped, PERIOD! No plea bargain, no probation, Erick would have none of this and knew EXACTLY how to play the legal game for my life and future. I must admit, I got very anxious many times. I would call and or text Erick and his calming response was immediate!!!! He always stated, trust me, I have YOUR back, don't worry about this! And I must say he did. In only 5 months he got this dismissed, no hearing, no more fines, the entire nightmare of facing a potential sentence from minimum 2 years - 20 maximum was over. Just like that it was over. Erick had his timing, defense negotiations/strategies completed precisely and flawlessly and on my 63rd birthday it was completely over with a phone call. Erick has a great attitude, he's personable, he knows his job and he cares greatly about his clients future, We matter greatly to Mr. Platten! In business I have attorneys. But none quilt like Mr. Erick Platten...THANK YOU SIR!!!!! This man has the experience, the passion and I believe Erick is one of the GREATS of Defense law!

The lawyer you want beside you in court If you're reading…read morethis and you're scared, overwhelmed, and unsure of what's going to happen next in your life -- I've been there. I was standing in court, terrified, alone, and trying not to fall apart. My own attorney didn't even show up for my hearing. I was left there completely alone, with no one to speak for me and no clue what to do. That's when Thad stepped in. A complete stranger, who didn't know my name or anything about me, saw me sitting there by myself and walked over. He gently pulled me aside and said, "I'll help you." No judgment. No hesitation. He offered his help without knowing a single detail about my charges, my history, or my story. He just saw someone in need -- and he showed up. That act of kindness changed the entire direction of my life. I wasn't facing something small. The charges against me were serious -- the kind of thing that could've destroyed my future and everything I had worked for. I was terrified that my dreams were over, that my worst mistake was going to define the rest of my life. But Thad didn't see me as a lost cause. He saw someone who was worth fighting for. He treated me with respect and dignity, explained everything clearly, and never once made me feel like I was less than human because of what I was facing. Thad fought for me as if he had known me forever. He got me the best possible outcome -- everything deferred, no conviction, and a path forward to rebuild. I now have the chance to continue pursuing my dream of becoming a nurse -- something I thought I had lost forever. What makes Thad so extraordinary isn't just his knowledge or skill -- it's his heart. He didn't have to help me. He wasn't obligated. But he chose to. He stood beside me when I had no one else, and I will never forget that. If you are looking for someone who will truly fight for your second chance, someone who leads with compassion and integrity, Thad is the attorney you want in your corner. I'll never be able to fully express how grateful I am for what he did for me. He gave me back my hope, my future, and my voice -- at a time when I felt like I had none left. Thank you, Thad. I will carry your kindness with me for the rest of my life.

The paralegal there is Erica Kirby who in my opinion is just totally inept. The arrogance from this firm is astounding considering how incompetent it is. I had the misfortune of using them based on a title company sending us over to them for a Heirship Of Affidavit situation. I needed up doing all the legwork Found mobile notaries in Wisconsin (2) a title company up there to help and we paid the bill to do all the work. Then her paperwork was screwed up and we had to get it renotarized in Wisconsin and pay the additional fee's. It was just a complete joke of a firm. Arrogant attorney, arrogant paralegal. On top of that when the paperwork was FEDEXED down to their office from the title company with signed notarized signatures, They didn't file it. We didn't find it out until it was time to close the property and when this "law office" was contacted they didn't have it, didn't have a copy of it, didn't know how to locate it. On top of that this paralegal and the attorney sent some ridiculously stupid email with some issue that they didn't appreciate us sending someone to their office to sign an agreement. We had already had an preliminary agreement and meeting on site with this individual so one again the completely incompetent in my opinion law firm again had no idea what in the world they were talking about and we responded by asking them not to send up stupid emails again. The other thing is you really donny have any idea if the work is being done by her personally or through the law firm. "Convenient. Complete joke of a law firm in my opinion. I would consider Richard Hughes and his Paralegal Erika Hughes two incompetent nut jobs and a total waste of time and money. One Star only because Zero star doesn't exist
