Reviews from Actual Clients of Michael C. Tillotson

Dear Mike,
I want to thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule today to speak to some of our students about your work in defending clients accused of DUI. I’m sure the students found it very valuable to hear your perspectives and learn about the challenges you face as a DUI attorney. It’s clear that you are passionate about your work! Thanks again for your participation. We look forward to seeing you on campus again in the future.

Dear Mr. Tillotson,
How can I begin to thank you for the miracle you performed before the court on my behalf? With a BAC of .28; a DUI charge (the second in ten years) and substantial jail time seemed certain. To have both the .28 BAC DUI and the jail time dismissed was amazing. You are so eloquent and compelling as you argue a case. I applaud you!

To all who assisted in my son’s defense, thank you so much! These types of cases must be extremely difficult because the subject of “DUI or DWI” is so volatile. Sometimes the laws for the habitual offender don’t seem strong enough and sometimes they seem too harsh for the one time offender. Although I don’t know the exact details of my son’s case, I do know he learned a valuable lesson from all this which he has shared with his sisters, colleges, and friends. Again, thank you all for your time and talents in my son’s defense.

Dear Mr. Tillotson,
I would like to express my gratitude to you for representing me when I was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated. You made a plea agreement with the prosecutor for a charge of reckless driving, 24 hours in jail, and 6 months restricted driver’s license. If I had been convicted of DUI, my Air Force Squadron commander would have had justification to demote me one pay grade, along with other consequences. Because I was convicted of a lesser charge in a civil court, my Air Force leadership decided against further military punishment. In a sense, with your representation, my Air Force career was not put in jeopardy. For future clients, I would like to stress that making the personal sacrifice of serving time in jail benefited my professional career. Instead of trying my case with the odds against me, we decided to make the plea agreement which, in the end, was a better deal for me. For this, I thank you Mr. Tillotson!

Dear Mr. Tillotson,
I am writing today to say thank you for all of your support during this rough time that I had to endure. You’re continuous dedication to my case showed me that you took time to prove my innocence. The kindness of your staff, yourself, and Dr. Citron shows me that there are good people out there in the world willing and ready to defend those that are truly innocent and made an honest mistake. My life would have been in shambles without your help as well as Dr. Citron. You have given me a second chance at life without the thoughts of having to worry about my insurance going up, going to jail, losing my license, and sitting in an asap class. People like you are a true god send, an angel at that. Thank you again; there isn’t enough words in the dictionary that can express how I feel.

Dear Mr. Tillotson,
I am an average citizen residing in the city of Newport News, Virginia. You probably will only vaguely remember me but I was subpoenaed by you to appear as a witness for the defense in a case involving police use of unnecessary force. The reason I am writing this letter to you is because I have, from the day of the final trial, wanted to contact you so as to tell you how thoroughly, effectively and efficiently you defended your case in the courtroom. Even the judge commented at how effective you were and how “interesting” the case was. You were tactful, very thorough, concise, and penetrating in your defense of your client. Your evidence and presentation was impeccable. Your client was not convicted because of any fault of yours; but because others turned their back on the truth. I send my highest regard and I congratulate you on your superb performance and professionalism.

Dear Mr. Tillotson,
I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I appreciate your hard work and devotion to my case. During my time my case was pending my life was on hold. A charge such as this one put my career in jeopardy and five years of professional progress at risk. The Navy certainly frowns upon DUI’s and without your counsel I would have certainly not been promotable thus ending my Navy career. I admit that my case did not look pretty; not pretty at all. However, on our day in court you were somehow able to make the impossible happen. The charges were reduced and my life was put back into my hands. For that I would like to say Thank You from the bottom of my heart. Without your counsel I am not sure where my professional life would be heading.

Mr. Tillotson,
Simple words are not enough to thank you for helping my daughter during this stressful time. She has always taken responsibility for her actions and I hope you have seen what a wonderful person she is. She has grown so much during this experience and I am glad she chose you to defend her. I’m sure you have lots of clients and many of them haven’t learned, but she is the exception. She truly is the client that deserves a second chance. Thanks to your help, and I think the judge saw that as well. You never gave up on her and I will always remember that. Thanks again from a grateful father.

Dear Mr. Tillotson,
I really appreciate all the time, effort, and knowledge that you gave to my case. The outcome was what I had requested of you. I want to truly say thank you.

Michael,
We deeply appreciate your professional talent, skill, and also your kindness and compassion. We could not have gotten through this terrible time without you.

To the Law Office of Michael Tillotson,
Words cannot express my gratitude for all of your hard work in my case. You became more than just a lawyer, but a friend. Mr. Tillotson, Marla, and Dr. Citron all became a part of my support system. I truly do not believe I could have ever shared the same experience anywhere else, nor the same perfect results. All the hard work paid off and it literally changed my life. You touch so many lives with your diligent efforts. Don’t forget that! I will forever thank you and think of you often.

Dear Mike,
Finally, the wait has ended. I appreciate all the work you put in. I realize the difficulty and confusion of dealing with an entity without rules or borders. I really respect that you stand against those who would act so heinously. I think it provided enlightenment to us both about the size and shape of the bureaucracy. I want you to know that the case was completely thrown out. Stay strong and fight the good fight.

Mr. Tillotson,
You brought a smile to my face when the days got rough. Thank you so much for being there for me!!! Thank you again.

Mr. Tillotson,
You are really are the best! I will refer you to everyone I know! Thanks.

Dear Attorney Tillotson,
Thank you for all your work to help my daughter. I will try and keep her reminded of the things she will need to do. I hope she uses this “Wonderful opportunity” to start a new life. She could not have had a better attorney or Judge. You are truly a Wonderful Person and Attorney. Thanks again for all your help.

Mr. Tillotson,
I can’t thank you enough for helping me out with my Virginia court case. Especially since our only correspondence was via telephone. Your efforts and kindness are greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
