The level of communication was unmatched.
An amazing law firm. Mr. Winters and his associates handled my case professionally, and the level of communication was unmatched. I regret not going with them for my initial case, but I had the pleasure of hiring them when probation tried revoking me. They helped out a lot, and I can’t recommend them enough.

They truly care about their clients!
I recently worked with Mr. Winters on my husband’s case and I can’t recommend them highly enough. From our initial consultation, they were incredibly thorough in explaining every aspect of the process. Their empathy made me feel supported during a stressful time. Their expertise in criminal law was evident, and I appreciated their strategic approach, which ultimately led to a favorable outcome for my husband’s case. They communicated clearly and promptly, ensuring my husband and I were always informed and comfortable with the process. Additionally, after his case was resolved, Mr. Winters followed up to check on us and let us know if we ever needed anything in the future they were there to help, which I found very thoughtful. If you’re looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable lawyer, look no further than Winters and Chidester. They truly care about their clients!

He genuinely cares about his clients
Working with James at Winters & Chidester was such a reassuring experience during a time when I had so many questions and concerns. From the very beginning, he treated my situation with care, professionalism, and respect. What I appreciated most was that he didn’t just give me quick answers—he took the time to really explain things so I felt informed and confident in the decisions I was making. James went above and beyond by not only addressing every defense question I had, but also by pointing me in the right direction with a referral when he felt it would serve my best interests. That level of honesty and guidance is rare, and it showed me that he genuinely cares about his clients and their outcomes, not just the case in front of him. If you are looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, approachable, and truly committed to helping you understand your options, I highly recommend James (English)/Veronica (Spanish) and the team at Winters & Chidester. I walked away not only with answers, but also with peace of mind—and that’s something you can’t put a price on.

Handled our case swiftly and efficiently
I was referred to Veronica Chidester, and she promptly returned my call, listened, and offered sound counsel. I loved learning that the team at Winters & Chidester works together and will put the best-fit lawyer on your case. And as a team of former prosecutors in the area, they are all well connected and able to move the needle forward where I imagine other firms without that crossover would not be able to. I ended up working with Holden Joseph, and he handled our case swiftly and efficiently, with the best possible outcome. I am beyond grateful and highly recommend their services should you be in the unfortunate need of them.
