From day one, Mrs. Carpenter met with me in person and kept in touch with me during the duration of my case. She and her team have always been accessible and that matters! J. L. continued giving me updates the many times she asked the DA for dismissal of my case letting me know she was still working for me! J. L. Carpenter and her team answered any and all of my questions during this difficult time and were amazing at communicating every step of the way to the dismissal of my case! Thank y’all for your hard work and great representation!

I obtained JL Carpenter’s information from a coworker that she had represented a couple of times- each with very positive outcomes. She was very informative and always easy to reach. From the start, She was straightforward, easy to talk to and understanding.I hope I never need a lawyer again but I would definitely want her on my side if ever in a bad situation.

JL goes above and beyond! I have not had to use her for any criminal cases but I needed help with ensuring my daughter did not head down the wrong path. She took the time to meet with her and took her along with her to court so that she could see that side of the law. She truly cares about the well being of all her clients and people in general. My daughter has been headed in the right direction ever since. JL is well respected in the community and a very professional, caring individual!

JL and her team handled my case with due diligence and made us feel welcome and comfortable through out this process. Even when I was discouraged at the onset, JL advised to hold steady for a full dismissal. Her transparency and professionalism are a hallmark of her work ethic and she genuinely worked to get justice in our favor. I highly recommend JL and am grateful she handled my case.

A close friend recommended that I go talk to JL after my DWI. I hired her after our consult and she worked hard to get my case dismissed. She and her team are very knowledgeable and made me feel so comfortable through out this horrible time. They put me at ease and always explained everything so that I would understand. They fought for me and I am so grateful! I am so happy that with their help, I can now start to put this behind me!

You couldn't have a better person in your corner. She is good person as well as an a darn good attorney. She tries to accomplish what is the absolute best for her clients. She is well respected from Galveston to Houston. I would highly recommend her if you are in need of a criminal attorney.

To say I'm grateful would be a understatement!! JL carpenter has been not only my lawyer through what I would consider my "Darkest Hour". She has been a friend, that has walked with me for the past 2yrs as my life was ripped to shreds over a False Allegation!! The balance she displayed between professionalism and compassion was unheard of, she is truly a rare gem!! Just watching how she strategically work my case, brought me to the conclusion that JL wasn't just any lawyer, she is a seasoned champion!! We receive the best news Oct 18th JL was able to get my case
