Client Testimonials

I Couldn’t Ask For A Better Lawyer

Tucker is good at what he does and it shows. I couldn’t ask for a better lawyer. He treated me more like a friend than just another client. Money well spent. I would recommend him to anyone in search of a criminal defense lawyer. I asked around who was the best lawyer in town, I was told Baldani Law Group…

Did Not Give Up

Tucker Richardson worked really hard for me and did not give up during the arraignment for my second Alcohol Intoxication charge to prove there was no probable cause for my arrest. His effort and persistence ultimately led to the judge not wanting to send my case to trial and the charge of AI against me was dismissed…
