Client Testimonials

Our Client-Focused Philosophy

At Brandon Sample PLC, we have a client-focused philosophy. We don't just see a client or a criminal defendant, we see a person with unique needs and who needs a defense customized to the underlying facts of the specific case. If you hire our firm, we will not merely review the indictment and push you toward a plea bargain, we will dig into all of the evidence, including the investigatorial agency's notes and reports to uncover possible defenses and weaknesses in the case.

If you are looking for a vigorous defense to a federal criminal case, the attorneys at Brandon Sample PLC are your best choice.

Why Hire Us?

There are many criminal defense attorneys, but fewer who practice federal criminal defense. Of those, few are willing to put in the time, and fewer still have the experience, to mount an effective defense to federal criminal charges. When you hire our firm, you receive competent, experienced legal representation and will never be just another number. We fight for our clients day in and day out.

Turn to us in your time of need and we will do everything in our power to fight the charges, get them dismissed, or at the worst, serve the least amount of time possible.
