On two separate occasions I have hired Mrs. Mesic to represent me criminal charges. The first was a high fine/substantial point speeding ticket, and the second was a criminal citation for driving while license suspended. In both instances Mrs. Mesic was able to get the charges dismissed with no penalties. She was dedicated to my case, always kept me informed each step of the way, and genuinely cared about the outcome. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through legal issues.- Ray

I found Kate through a friend who had used her in the past. As the alleged "victim" of a criminal case, she took my requests very seriously and helped ensure I got the outcome I wanted vs. what the state wanted to happen. She understood my concerns and protected me in the court from being asked any questions. She had everything dismissed and resolved in less than a week. I am extremely happy with the outcome and will always recommend her to people.- Former Client
