Criminal Lawyer in Jacksonville, FL

"I cannot express my or my daughter's thankfulness for such a skilled lawyer!"

Kate assisted my daughter get out of jail in less than three days due to a very old Domestic warrant! She worked key judicial issues regarding the Domestic Warrant with the courts and maneuvered through the justice system with great diligence and aptitude! At the same time she also helped get my daughter out of a traffic ticket with no points against her driving record. I cannot express my or my daughter's thankfulness for such a skilled lawyer! I would definitely recommend her services and will definitely use her legal talents again!

"As all the reviews say Kate and her team are fantastic."

As all the reviews say Kate and her team are fantastic. I've never dealt with a DUI type of situation before and had an incident with my son. Kate reviewed the legalities of the situation and guided us through the process, luckily no major actions were needed but having a responsive, expert lawyer guiding us through the process gave tremendous peace of mind. I can't recommend Kate enough.

"Kate is one of a kind! Her ethics, drive, expertise and support was impressive and reassuring to both my son and myself."

While my adult son was in town over the Christmas holiday, he was pulled over for driving without his headlights on after dark. (The Valet parking at his hotel had turned them off of auto.) He had consumed a few drinks over the course of the evening and the police officer asked him to do the breathalyzer test. When my son refused, he was taken to jail. I received a call from my daughter-in-law, early the next morning. I called Kate, as I had met her a few times and was impressed by her work ethic, knowledge of the law, professionalism and "humanness" . She was at home at the time of my call, but pulled up the arrest report etc. She told me what time the hearing before the judge was to be that afternoon and said she would meet me at the building where the hearing was to be. (Did I mention this was a Saturday morning?) By the time I arrived, Kate had already spoken to my son, collecting information necessary as she went along. When the judge entered his Chambers, Kate approached him immediately, asking that he hear my son's case first, for reasons that she had already informed us of. Already, I'm impressed, but it only got better. Because Kate is so motivated to help her clients, is extremely intelligent, and has extensive knowledge and understanding of the law and the system's processes, she proactively met with the Prosecutor and was able to get the charges reduced to a lesser charge. This resulted in a SIGNIFICANTLY better outcome for my son. Kate went above and beyond what she was paid to do, in many ways. One of which was letting my son know, in no uncertain terms, the seriousness of this matter and exactly what he needed to do to follow the exact rules of the law. She let him know exactly what the consequences would be, should he not. She kept in touch with my son the whole step of the way; consulting, counseling and yes, checking, to make sure he stayed on track with dates and responsibilities. Yes, Kate is one of a kind! Her ethics, drive, expertise and support was impressive and reassuring to both my son and myself. She is No. 1 in Northeast Florida, as far as we are concerned. I am confident if we have the opportunity to work with this wonderful attorney again, it will under different circumstances, but the end results will be the same.

"My case was complicated and was not leaning towards my favor... I thank the lord for meeting Mrs. Mesic."

When I met Mrs. Mesic It was for a DUI. I had never been in trouble with the law like this before, and my life as I knew it was over. Mrs. Mesic broke down the legal jargon, helped me understand , and fought for my case. My case was complicated and was not leaning towards my favor. Mrs. Mesic and her team worked my DUI case down to reckless driving, probation, and some community service. I thank the lord for meeting Mrs. Mesic, and for the people responsible for introducing her into my life. I would recommend Mrs. Mesic with similar cases no questions asked.

"Kate was able to get the 4 charges faced against me dismissed! I’m not sure anyone else could have helped."

From the moment I walked into Kate's office, she put an extremely stressful, uncertain situation into an organized plan of defense that put my worries and anxiety to rest. Kate was able to get the 4 charges faced against me dismissed! I’m not sure anyone else could have helped. She kept me informed, answered all my questions and most importantly kept me focused on the positive and doing what I needed to do to get through this. She is very knowledgeable, helpful and gracious. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need.
