Patty & Charles very extremely professional, attentive, knowledgeable and most of all personable / caring. My case was a difficult and unique situation. They promptly executed what I believed impossible. Patty personal touch including contact after normal hours and both actually cared about my well-being through my trial. I highly recommend them.

Mr. Mead is truly the top stalking, theft, and felony criminal defense lawyer in Boca Raton. My friend also has real experience with a troublesome bf and she said he was a godsend as her domestic violence restraining order attorney. I have helped his online presence for years and met many happy clients.
